Masyn Winn News
St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn is getting the day off on Friday versus the New York Mets on the road. It's a standard rest day for Winn after he started the previous nine games. He's off to a great start in 2024 with a .313/.385/.418 slash line with an .803 OPS, no home runs, three doubles, two triples, six RBI, four stolen bases and nine runs scored in his first 23 games in his first full season as the team's starting shortstop. Despite the strong start, he's barely hitting over .200 in his last nine contests, so the rest day is warranted. The 22-year-old should be back in there on Saturday. Veteran Brandon Crawford is at the 6 and is batting eighth on Friday against Mets right-hander Jose Butto. Crawford will be facing Butto for the first time in his career.
St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt and shortstop Masyn Winn are both getting a breather on Wednesday against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies. Alec Burleson is playing first base and batting sixth, while Brandon Crawford is at the 6 and is hitting seventh against Phillies right-hander Aaron Nola. The 36-year-old Goldschmidt could use the break after putting up a weak .544 OPS to begin the 2024 season. Meanwhile, Winn has been consistent so far in his first full season as the Cardinals' starting shortstop, going 11-for-33 (.333) with a double, triple, three RBI and a stolen base in 11 games. Neither Burleson nor Crawford will be very strong DFS plays against Nola. Burleson is hitting .167 with an RBI in six at-bats against Nola, while Crawford is hitting .200 with three RBI in 15 career at-bats.
St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn and outfielder Alec Burleson are both out of the starting lineup on Wednesday for the series finale against the San Diego Padres. Brandon Crawford is getting the start at shortstop and is batting seventh, while Brendan Donovan is leading off and playing left field against Padres right-hander Joe Musgrove. Winn has looked good so far in his first full season as the team's primary shortstop, going 5-for-16 (.313) with an RBI, stolen base and two runs scored in 19 plate appearances through the first five games of the season. Donovan is the much more intriguing DFS play on Wednesday over the veteran Crawford, and he's picked up seven hits in his first 24 at-bats on the year with a home run, six RBI and six runs scored.

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn is expected to crack the Cardinals' Opening Day roster. He was called to the majors in mid-August but struggled to adjust to big-league pitching. Winn slashed .172/.230/.238 with two doubles, two home runs, and two stolen bases across 137 plate appearances in 2023. Some of his struggles can be attributed to bad luck (he had just a .196 BABIP). Moving forward, Winn should not be written off for what he did in just 37 MLB games. He slashed .272/.351/.437 with 70 doubles, 35 home runs, and 92 stolen bases over 322 minor-league games. Right now, his NFBC ADP is 448. ATC projections expect him to slash .245/.301/.372 with 20 2Bs, 10 HRs, 13 SBs. At that rate, Winn would not be valuable in fantasy leagues outside NL-Only or deep-league formats. However, he certainly has the talent to exceed expectations in 2024, making him a late-round flier at best in upcoming drafts.
