Anthony Rendon Fantasy

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon was ejected from Mondays contest versus Texas for arguing balls and strikes. Rendon was rung up for strike three in the seventh, before a discussion with home-plate umpire Kyle McCrady resulted in Rendon being sent packing. Prior to his departure, Rendon struck out three times in a contest for the first time all season. Theres not likely to be any kind of suspension for Rendon moving forward, so fantasy managers can anticipate him returning Tuesday against San Diego righty Zach Davies.

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon will look to shake out of his September slump when the team hosts the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Rendon is slashing only .245/.373/.469 this month and is hitting .214 over his last 56 at-bats. He has not homered since September 6 and has only two extra-base hits over his last 29 at-bats. Rendon can still finish the season strong and will have a strong chance to get rolling at Angel Stadium. Through 25 home games this season, Rendon is posting a 1.063 OPS with 15 extra-base hits and 21 runs batted in. The veteran will also face Diamondbacks left-handed starter Alex Young Thursday and Rendon is slugging .540 against left-handers this season. This matchup could be the beginning of a hot streak offensively for Rendon.

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon is starting and will hit cleanup Thursday against the Rangers. It has been a solid debut season for Rendon but has been strangely inert playing on the road. While Rendon is posting a 1.149 OPS at home this season, the slugger is slashing only .278/.391/.296 away from Angel Stadium. Rendon is still looking for his first road home run of the season and has only one extra-base hit through 54 bats. Perhaps he will be able to turn around his home/road splits in Texas but fantasy teams may need to take notice which stadium Rendon is playing in before dropping him into DFS formats.
