Jose Barrero Stats

Cincinnati Reds infielder Jose Barrero is starting in center field and is hitting ninth in the batting order on Friday against the New York Yankees and right-hander Clarke Schmidt. With rookie Matt McLain taking over the 6 in Cincinnati, Barrero has to find other avenues for playing time with the Reds. The 25-year-old hasn't been much of a fantasy commodity through 32 games this year, and batting in the nine-hole makes him completely avoidable for fantasy lineups. Barrero enters Friday's contest against the Yanks with a .237 average (23-for-97) with seven doubles, one home run, 12 RBI, three stolen bases and 10 runs scored in 109 plate appearances.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jose Barrero left his team's 7-6 win over the Chicago Cubs on Monday with tightness in his right hamstring, according to the team. Barrero was pulled during the second inning after appearing to tweak his hamstring while running the bases following a leadoff single. He was replaced in the lineup by Jason Vosler, who went on to hit a three-run homer. Barrero can be considered day-to-day for the time being.
