Matt Vierling News
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Matt Vierling and shortstop Edmundo Sosa are in the starting lineup for Game 6 of the World Series against the Houston Astros and left-hander Framber Valdez. Brandon Marsh and rookie Bryson Stott will start on the bench against the southpaw. Vierling is hitting eighth and Sosa is in the nine-hole. In 11 playoff games (four starts), Vierling has gone just 2-for-12 with a double, RBI, two runs scored and four strikeouts. Meanwhile, Sosa has also played in 11 games (three starts) and has gone 2-for-6 with a double, two RBI, two runs scored, a walk and three strikeouts. Any offensive production the Phillies get from these two will be gravy as they look to send the series to a deciding seventh game on Sunday.
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Matt Vierling will start in center field and hit eighth in Game 2 of the World Series. Vierling and Brandon Marsh have formed a platoon in center this postseason, and that continues tonight as Vierling starts against lefty Framber Valdez. In 10 postseason at-bats, Vierling has two hits, four strikeouts, and no walks. He also has an RBI and two runs scored. Expect Marsh to factor in if a right-handed reliever comes in against the bottom of the order at some point tonight.
Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Matt Vierling hit the first home run of his Major League career in a win over the Pirates on Saturday. Vierling took Pirates starter Wil Crowe deep in the third inning and also singled and walked in the contest. More notably for fantasy, Vierling batted leadoff in this game which could increase his fantasy value heading into the last week of the season. Vierling posted double-digit walk rates in both Double-A and Triple-A this season and has a healthy .403 on-base percentage through 28 Big League games. He's scored nine runs and has stolen two bases thus far, so he could be a sneaky add in deeper fantasy leagues.
