Derek Fisher News
The Milwaukee Brewers made a deal on Monday night, acquiring outfielder Derek Fisher from the Toronto Blue Jays. The Brewers agreed to send a player to be named and cash to Toronto to complete the swap. The Jays had designated Fisher for assignment last Thursday to clear a 40-man roster spot for former Brewers reliever David Phelps. Fisher ranked as high as No. 4 on MLB Pipeline's list of Houston's top prospects before his 2017 promotion. He slashed .279/.374/.486 with 111 stolen bases in 505 games across six minor league seasons. Fisher may have trouble finding consistent at-bats to begin the season, as he joins a group of outfielders who will vie for at-bats behind projected Brewers starters Christian Yelich, Lorenzo Cain and Avisail Garcia. He's only worth a look in very deep dynasty leagues.
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Derek Fisher left Thursday's game early versus the Nationals after experiencing quad tightness in his left leg. He was 0-for-1 in the contest before getting lifted in the third inning and was replaced by Joe Panik. Fisher has received generous playing time since Randal Grichuk has been out of the lineup, and has somewhat capitalized going 3-for-11 with a double and a triple this week. It's unknown whether he'll require an IL stint, but with the postponement of their games this weekend, he'll have several days off to heal.
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Derek Fisher (quad) left Thursdays contest early with left quad tightness. Fisher was replaced by second baseman Joe Panik in the lineup. Fisher was once a prized prospect for the Houston Astros, but he has struggled in limited action at the big league level. Fisher only has three starts under his belt this season with the Blue Jays and when healthy can be left on the waiver wire. There is currently no timetable for his return.
