New York Yankees DFS SPIN
Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Josh Donaldson (hamstring) is also dealing with a thumb injury. Boone elaborated that Donaldson recently cut his thumb “putting something together at home,” which will delay his rehabilitation timeline by at least a few additional days. It doesn’t sound like a serious issue, but it’s yet another physical issue that the veteran third baseman is dealing with. Barring even more setbacks, he should return sometime in June.
Cincinnati Reds DFS SPIN
Luke Maile contributed a solo homer and an RBI single in the loss to the Rockies on Wednesday. Maile, the most seldom used of the Reds’ three catchers, has two homers in 39 plate appearances, matching Tyler Stephenson’s total in 167 plate appearances. Curt Casali, meanwhile, is without an extra-base hit or an RBI in 48 plate appearances.
