Joc Pederson News
Los Angeles Dodgers president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman said that outfielder Joc Pederson (hip) and starting pitcher Dustin May (side) are pretty much recovered from the injuries they were nursing when spring training was put on hold, and they should not be limited when action resumes. Pederson had already resumed playing in minor league games. Whenever Opening Day actually comes, both players should be fully healthy. Pederson had a career-high 36 home runs and 74 RBI in 2019 and will remain a nice source of power in deep mixed leagues, but his fantasy ceiling is limited in redraft leagues with him expected to platoon with A.J. Pollock. May, one of the team's top young arms, should eventually be in the team's rotation, but he may begin the year in Triple-A. The right-hander is still an excellent stash in NL-only leagues and should already be owned in dynasty/keeper formats.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson (side) is progressing and could return to Cactus League action next week. Manager Dave Roberts still thinks that Pederson will be ready for Opening Day. He still has a chance, but he can't afford any setbacks from here on out with the regular season quickly approaching. The 27-year-old (28 next month) slugger lost some fantasy value when the proposed trade to the Angels was nixed, but he did manage a career-high 36 home runs and 74 RBI for the Dodgers last season. He's expected to be in the strong side of a platoon with A.J. Pollock in 2020, which will give him appeal in deep mixed leagues and DFS tournaments.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joc Pederson (side) is steadily progressing in his recovery from an irritated side/hip. The 27-year-old was taking swings in the batting cage again on Thursday, as he continues to ramp up the intensity of his workouts. As long as Pederson keeps improving, he will start to rehab in the minor leagues in the coming days. As of right now, Pederson's status for Opening Day seems doubtful, as the team is more concerned with getting him back to full health. Once fully healthy, Pederson will resume his role in an aggressive outfield platoon for the Dodgers.
