Yadier Molina Returns To The Lineup
3 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina (neck) is back in the starting lineup on Tuesday against Cleveland Indians right-hander Cal Quantrill after missing a few games with minor neck stiffness. Molina is hitting fifth on Tuesday night. The 39-year-old veteran backstop remains fantasy relevant this year with his .250/.295/.390 slash line and eight home runs, 41 RBI and two stolen bases at a weak position, but he's struggled since the All-Star break with five hits in 27 at-bats (.185) with no home runs and just one RBI. Molina has been a bit better in the month of July (.237 batting average, one homer, seven RBI), but fantasy managers may want to continue benching him until he proves he's beyond his neck issues.
