Danny Santana News
Free-agent infielder/outfielder Danny Santana has been suspended by Major League Baseball for testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs, according to Britt Ghiroli. The ban will last 80 games. Santana had yet to sign with a club before the announcement after spending last season with the Boston Red Sox. In 38 games during 2021, the 31-year-old slashed .181/.252/.345 with five home runs and four stolen bases. Most of Santana's success came in 2019, when he hit .283 with an .857 OPS along with 21 steals over 130 games with the Texas Rangers. He was already being ignored in drafts, and this news further cements his irrelevance in fantasy baseball.
Boston Red Sox outfielder Danny Santana tested positive for COVID-19 on Saturday evening. He'll land on the injured list while infielder Jack Lopez is selected from Triple-A. Santana represents the latest in a long list of positive coronavirus tests for the Red Sox, who have battled this outbreak and its many breakthrough cases for more than two weeks. The 30-year-old is now headed for his third IL stint in the last two months. Through 38 games this year, he is slashing .181/.252/.345 with five homers, 14 RBI, 10 walks, and 30 strikeouts.
Boston Red Sox utility man Danny Santana stole his fourth base of the season against the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday. He also went 1-for-3 at the plate. Santana has continued to find playing time for manager Alex Cora, and he has plenty of potential in the power and speed categories, but with just a .600 OPS in 112 at-bats, there's too much of a floor to consider him on fantasy rosters, especially when his playing time stands to dry up once the COVID issues on Boston's roster resolve.
