Andrés Giménez News
Cleveland Guardians infielder Andres Gimenez is out of the starting lineup for the second straight day on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Corey Kluber. It remains to be seen if Gimenez is actually dealing with an injury, but fantasy managers will have to keep him on the bench again. The 24-year-old first-time All-Star has been great in the month of September, going 27-for-84 (.321) with two home runs, eight RBI, 15 runs scored and four stolen bases in 24 games played. With Gimenez starting on the bench, rookie Gabriel Arias will start at second base and bat seventh against Kluber. This will be Arias' eighth major-league game, and he's gone 3-for-23 (.130) so far with no homers, a triple, three RBI and eight strikeouts so far.
Cleveland Guardians infielder Andres Gimenez isn't in the team's starting lineup on Tuesday for a matchup with the Los Angeles Angels and left-handed starter Jose Suarez. Gimenez is batting .297 with a .368 on-base percentage, 16 home runs, and 18 stolen bases in 477 plate appearances for Cleveland this year. He'll head to the bench on Tuesday with Tyler Freeman starting at second base and batting seventh against Suarez and the Angels. Freeman has logged 60 plate appearances for Cleveland this season, batting .245 with a .317 on-base percentage and a stolen base. Fantasy managers in search of streaming options are probably better off looking elsewhere.
Cleveland Guardians infielder Andres Gimenez isn't in the team's lineup on Wednesday for a game against the San Diego Padres and left-handed starter Blake Snell. The 23-year-old is batting .309 with a .375 on-base percentage, 15 home runs, and 15 stolen bases in 404 plate appearances this season. Tyler Freeman will get the start at second base instead and hit seventh against Snell and the Padres. So far this season in the Majors, Freeman is hitting .227 with a .393 on-base percentage and a stolen base in 28 plate appearances. Fantasy managers in search of streaming help are probably better off looking elsewhere.

Long one of the New York Mets' top prospects, shortstop Andres Gimenez made his debut in 2020, hitting .263/.333/.398 with 3 HR and 8 SB across 49 games at 2B, SS, and 3B. After being one of the pieces moved to Cleveland in the Francisco Lindor trade, there is some optimism around Gimenez in fantasy circles heading into 2021. Last year, as has long been with the case with Gimenez, the left-handed hitter displayed great defensive versatility and 94th-percentile speed, but little in the way of patience (5.3 BB%) or power (.136 ISO). While Gimenez makes contact with above-average consistency, he does little damage with it, finishing in the 20th-percentile in exit velocity and 11th-percentile in barrel rate. His calling card in fantasy will be a defensive versatility that should keep him on the field often in Cleveland and the speed to rack up stolen bases when he gets on base. However, people looking for cheap steals should temper expectations since Gimenez is an aggressive hitter with an above-average Swing% and Chase% who has never put up high walk rates in the minor leagues. He's likely to finish with an average around .250 with 8-10 HR and anywhere between 25-30 SB. That's nothing to turn your nose up at, but he's not going to help much in counting categories or with AVG/OBP, so if pitchers start taking advantage of his aggressiveness and keep him off the bases, thereby driving his SB total down closer to 20, you're not going to be getting a whole lot for his current ADP of 150. Considering Leody Tavares is going around 170, Nick Madrigal has an ADP of 190, and Jon Berti is being taken pick 245, I'd rather wait than take Gimenez at this current cost.
