Ji Man Choi News
San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Ji Man Choi (ribs, foot) was rehabbing with Triple-A El Paso when he sustained a right Lisfranc injury. The ailment will likely end his season, and his rehab assignment will stop for now. Choi has only played in 30 games this year split between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Padres, thanks to an Achilles and rib injury. The 32-year-old wasn't producing when he was on the field, as he slashed .179/.239/.440 with six homers, 12 runs, 11 RBI, and no steals. If fantasy managers haven't already, they should drop Choi in virtually every format.
San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Ji Man Choi (ribs) has begun a swinging progression, according to MLB.com, and is looking to return from the injured list by mid-September. The 32-year-old hit the shelf after straining his rib cage earlier this month. Choi has only appeared in 30 contests this season, split between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Padres, as he began the season dealing with an Achilles issue. Over 84 at-bats, the eight-year vet owns a .179/.239/.440 slash line with six homers, 12 runs, and 11 RBI. There's no need for fantasy managers to stash Choi in any mixed-league format.
The San Diego Padres placed first baseman/designated hitter Ji Man Choi (ribs) on the 10-day injured list Monday with a left rib cage strain. The move is retroactive to August 12, when he sustained the injury while taking swings. Outfielder Ben Gamel's contract was selected from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move. Choi had provided a bit of power but not much else this season, slashing .179/.239/.440 in 92 plate appearances. While Gamel has been performing well at Triple-A, neither player is fantasy relevant at this time.
