Trey Mancini Not Playing Tuesday
3 years agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Trey Mancini is receiving the day off on Tuesday. Outfielder Anthony Santander will serve as the designated hitter and hit cleanup against Houston Astros right-hander Jose Urquidy. Mancini has been one of the best stories in baseball in 2021 after not playing at all last year after being diagnosed with colon cancer. Not only is he back this year, but the 29-year-old is hitting .258/.332/.457 with 14 home runs, 42 runs scored and 52 RBI in 291 at-bats. He also committed to participating in this year's Home Run Derby. Pretty cool. Santander will have an opportunity to be a DFS sleeper on Tuesday in the cleanup spot, but he's also hitting just .162 (6-for-37) with no homers and one RBI in the last two weeks.
