Luke Voit News
San Diego Padres' first baseman Luke Voit went 3-for-5 with two solo home runs and an additional run scored in Wednesday's loss to the Chicago Cubs. He took Keegan Thompson deep in the second frame and then smashed another homer off Mychal Givens in the seventh inning for his second long ball of the game. San Diego reinstated Voit (biceps) from the injured list on Tuesday. The 31-year-old crushed his first two homers of the season and will turn things around after a rough start to the season. Voit is slashing .184/.349/.327 with two home runs, seven RBI, and nine runs over 15 games in 2022.
The San Diego Padres reinstated outfielder Wil Myers (thumb) and first baseman/designated hitter Luke Voit (biceps) from the injured list on Tuesday. Myers is back in right field and is hitting fifth on Tuesday against Chicago Cubs left-hander Wade Miley, while Voit will serve as the designated hitter and bat sixth. Myers has been out the last two weeks with a bruised right thumb. He was off to a slow start with a .218/.254/.273 slash line and a 32.2% strikeout rate to begin the year, and he's still searching for his first homer. Voit went on the IL on April 23 with a biceps injury. The 31-year-old power hitter was also ice-cold before his injury, and he went 0-for-18 with 12 strikeouts during a five-game rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso. Fantasy managers should play Myers/Voit at their own risk now that they are back in the majors.
San Diego Padres first baseman Luke Voit (biceps) will stay at Triple-A El Paso for the time being in an attempt to get his bat going. Voit has struggled in Triple-A, striking out in nine straight at-bats at one point as he attempts to work his way back to the big league club after injuring his biceps back on April 23. The veteran spent some time with the big-league staff on Monday and they apparently decided that he needs some more time to fine-tune his swing. There was originally some talk that Voit would be activated from the injured list on Friday but that is looking less likely after Monday's news.

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit utilized a shortened season to make a lengthy statement of his offensive prowess. The 2020 season reinvigorated those that were let down by a 2019 performance that didn't resemble the success he had the year prior. Voit's 22 homers not only led the league, but they were the most of his career. It is true that his Max Exit Velo (111.7 mph), Barrel (13.1%), and Hard Hit (40%) rates were inferior to 2019, but it was the increase in Launch Angle (15.2 degrees) that made difference. Voit also made other improvements at the plate with career-bests in Swinging Strike (13.3%) and Z-Contact (83%) rates. 2021 looks like an opportunity for Voit to reaffirm his place as a premium power bat in the league, assuming he maintains a similar launch angle. To get a power-hitting first baseman that possesses a place in the top third of a dynamic Yankees' lineup, you'll have to call his name near pick 60. Voit will be worth it.
