Ty France News
Seattle Mariners first baseman Ty France (wrist) is back in the starting lineup on Thursday, starting at first base and hitting second in the lineup against the Oakland Athletics and left-hander JP Sears. France was hit by a pitch on his wrist on Tuesday and didn't play on Wednesday, but he's back in there now for fantasy managers. The 28-year-old has hit better in May than he did in April, going 23-for-82 (.281) with four doubles, two home runs and six RBI in 20 games played. Although he has yet to go deep against a left-hander, France is hitting a decent .277 (13-for-47) with four doubles and seven RBI against southpaws so far in 2023, so fantasy managers will want to get him back into their lineups on Thursday night.
Seattle Mariners first baseman Ty France (wrist) should be available to play Thursday's matchup against JP Sears and the Oakland Athletics, according to Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times. The 28-year-old was removed from Tuesday's game after a pitch hit him in the wrist, but the X-rays came back negative and he was just dealing with some swelling. Hopefully, France can stay hot when he returns, as he's sporting a .280 average in the month of May, and overall he's slashing .261/.341/.380 with three homers, 27 runs, 21 RBI, and one steal across 48 games.
Seattle Mariners first baseman Ty France (wrist) is being held out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Oakland Athletics. France left early during Tuesday's game after being hit by a pitch in the wrist. Luckily, the X-rays came back negative, so it sounds like he's only dealing with a wrist contusion. The Mariners are considering him day-to-day, so fantasy managers should expect him to miss a game or two. In the meantime, Sam Haggerty will cover first base and bat ninth versus lefty Ken Waldichuk.

Seattle Mariners first baseman Ty France had an overall successful 2022 season, slashing .274/.338/.436 with 20 home runs, 65 runs scored, and 83 RBI in 613 plate appearances. The 28-year-old didn't walk much at 5.7%, but he also didn't strike out much at 15.3%. He was also able to generate a decent amount of power despite having an exit velocity and hard-hit rate in the bottom 30 percent of baseball. France should continue to bat at the top of an above-average and improved lineup, which could lead to a boost in R. However, a good portion of his fantasy value came from his second base eligibility, which he will not have heading into 2023. He is currently being drafted at about pick 172 overall, making him the 16th first baseman off the board. The position itself is deep, but France does stand out as a solid hitting option at that point in the draft given his high floor in several categories. As such, he seems like a strong corner infielder to target toward the back half of drafts.
