Jose Siri Stats

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri finds himself on the bench for Game 2 of the wild-card series against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. Josh Lowe enters the starting lineup in right field and will bat cleanup against Rangers right-hander Nathan Eovaldi, while Manuel Margot is patrolling center field and batting in the six-hole. Siri is coming off a fractured hand that put him on the injured list in September, and he was 0-for-3 in the Game 1 loss to Texas on Tuesday. Margot has two singles and a strikeout in his seven career at-bats against Eovaldi. The 29-year-old Dominican provided very modest numbers for fantasy managers in 2023 with a .264 average (82-for-311) with just four home runs, 38 RBI, nine stolen bases and 39 runs scored.

The Tampa Bay Rays placed outfielder Jose Siri (hand) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a right-hand fracture and recalled outfielder Curtis Mead from Triple-A Durham in a corresponding move. Siri and the team are optimistic that he can return in three weeks and for the postseason. The 28-year-old kept saying "maybe two weeks" when the media spoke with him on Monday. Siri suffered a small fracture in his hand on Monday night against the Minnesota Twins after getting hit by a pitch. The bottom line is that Siri is unlikely to contribute to fantasy lineups the rest of the way in 2023. Until he's able to return, Luke Raley is expected to see the majority of starts in center field for the Rays.

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said Monday that outfielder Jose Siri (hand) fractured his right hand in the team's 7-4 win over the Twins. Siri was hit by a pitch on his hand, and while he stayed in to run the bases, he was eventually replaced by Vidal Brujan. Cash said that Siri could return in about three weeks, essentially ending his fantasy season. This is a shame, as the 28-year-old had provided power and speed, slashing .222/.267/.494 with 25 home runs, 56 RBI, and 12 stolen bases. Fantasy managers will want to look beyond Brujan for replacements, as he has hit just .178 in 81 plate appearances this season.
