Yandy Diaz Playing on Sunday
Yandy Diaz (hamstring) is playing first base and batting third in Sunday's contest against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals and left-hander Matthew Liberatore. Diaz did not play on Friday after suffering a low-grade hamstring strain in the series opener against St. Louis on Thursday, but he's back in for the series finale after a rare team off day on Saturday. The 34-year-old veteran has been seeing the ball well of late with hits in eight of his last 10 games, so fantasy managers certainly will want him back in their starting lineups now that he's back on the field. Diaz has gone hitless in three career at-bats against Liberatore and is hitting .266 (34-for-128) with nine of his 21 home runs on the year against southpaws. The Cuban slugger is quietly hitting .281 on the year and is jut two home runs away from setting a new career high.
