Phillip Ervin News
Outfielder Phillip Ervin was claimed off of the waiver wire by the Seattle Mariners on Thursday, adding to the clubs outfield mix. Ervin had been designated for assignment by the Reds last Friday after opening the year 3-for-35 at the plate. Used primarily against left-handed pitching, Ervin has Kd in seven of 14 at-bats versus righties this year. For the Mariners, theyll be banking on Ervins upside (.797 OPS in 2019) as he joins the outfield mix. Hes unlikely to get everyday at-bats out of the gate, but could play his way into a larger role, making him a name that fantasy managers will want to keep on their respective radars.
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Phillip Ervin had a huge night in a 17-9 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday. Ervin went a perfect 6-for-6 at the plate, picking up a double, a triple, one run, three RBI, and a steal. The big game raises Ervin's average to .357 to go along with one homer, seven runs, nine RBI, and one steal in 56 at-bats. The 26-year-old doesn't play every day for the Reds but he could start seeing his name in the lineup more frequently after Saturday. He will be a decent option in DFS contests in Coors Field on Sunday if he gets another start.
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Phillip Ervin has been recalled from Triple-A Louisville and will bat fifth Saturday against the Rangers. This will be Ervin's first major league start since May 22. In 40 Triple-A games this year, Ervin has an OPS of .866 with six home runs and six stolen bases. For his big league career, Ervin owns an .873 OPS against left-handed pitching versus just .676 when facing right-handed pitchers. When platooning against lefties such as Saturday against Mike Minor, Ervin is a strong low-cost daily fantasy option.
