Johnny Field News
Minnesota Twins outfielder Robbie Grossman (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day disabled list on Monday. He strained his right hammy during Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Grossman was hitting .253 this season, which is right around his career average of .251. That said, he had a very good July where he hit .301 with a .791 OPS. Taking his place on the roster will be outfielder Johnny Field. The Twins claimed Field off waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays on August 3. Aside from having an incredible name, Field didn't do much in 2018 down in Florida and will remain off the fantasy radar until he shows something.
The Cleveland Indians have claimed outfielder Johnny Field off of waivers from the Tampa Bay Rays and have assigned him to Triple-A. Field is capable of playing all three outfield positions and has hit .213 with six home runs, 14 RBI and four stolen bases in 2018. Cleveland has stated that they're interested in acquiring an outfielder and had been in talks for Adam Jones earlier in the season. Field might see some starts when/if he gets recalled, but he isn't worth a pickup in fantasy leagues at this time.
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Johnny Field has been designated for assignment Friday. The move was required in order to make space for catcher Adam Moore on the 40-man roster. With Wilson Ramos (hamstring) on the disabled list the Rays needed to add a backup catcher to their roster. Field failed to truly take advantage of his opportunities this season, hitting .217 with six home runs and four stolen bases in 179 plate appearances. However, Field was optioned to Triple-A on July 10 to make room for first baseman Ji-Man Choi on the 25-man roster. Field will now go through waivers and could wind up getting plate appearances for another MLB team.
