Boston Red Sox DFS SPIN
Adam Duvall is undergoing X-rays on his injured left wrist after exiting Sunday’s game against the Tigers. Duvall suffered the injury when he attempted to make a diving catch in center field. It certainly didn’t look good on the field, but we won’t know anything more until the Red Sox get the results of that imaging back. In the meantime, fantasy managers should be sure to have a contingency plan in place for next week in the event that Duvall requires a trip to the injured list.
Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Brandon Lowe had a grand slam, an RBI single and a walk Sunday as the Rays decimated the A’s 11-0 in a second straight game Sunday. Of course, the Rays should have gotten off to a hot start with the Tigers, Nationals and A’s first on the schedule, but 9-0 is still very impressive and winning all nine games by at least four runs is simply ridiculous. Lowe has two homers, eight RBI and a 6/7 K/BB ratio despite already sitting out two games. It’s good for a 1.035 OPS, which, amazingly, is only sixth best on the team.
