Albert Almora Jr. Lands On Injured List Tuesday

The Cincinnati Reds placed outfielder Albert Almora Jr. on the injured list without a designation on Tuesday. The lack of a designation suggests that the move is COVID-related.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/8/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

We were really close to getting a full 15-game slate, but the Reds and Rays are playing a 6:40 PM game, meaning we have "only" 14 games on the main slate instead.

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto (back) will sit out of the starting lineup once again for Game 2 of a doubleheader on Thursday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
