Seiya Suzuki Not Expected Back This Weekend
2 years agoChicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki, who is on the paternity list, isn't expected back for the team's four-game weekend series against the Pittsburgh Pirates since his wife has not yet delivered their baby. Suzuki initially went on the paternity list last Saturday and was then moved to the restricted list on Thursday. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect to have him available until some point early next week. Michael Hermosillo should continue to benefit from extra playing time in the outfield with Suzuki out. He's back in center field and is hitting eighth on Thursday against Pirates right-hander Mitch Keller. Hermosillo is still searching for his first home run of the season. He has just five hits in 51 at-bats with three RBI and 23 strikeouts. DFS gamers should look elsewhere.
