Tyler Naquin Stats

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (ribs) was placed on the 10-day injured list last Friday. He is dealing with bruised ribs. On Wednesday, Reds manager David Bell told reporters that he expects Naquin to be out for the remainder of the regular season. The 30-year-old had a strong first season with the Reds. Over 127 games, he slashed .270/.333/.477 with 19 home runs, 70 RBI and 52 runs. He served as the team's primary center fielder when healthy this year. The team will now likely platoon TJ Friedl, Jose Barrero and Delino DeShields in center field the rest of the way.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (ribs) is not in the starting lineup for a fourth straight game after exiting Saturday's game early with bruised ribs. He is still day-to-day at this point. Naquin is having a nice year offensively, slashing .270/.333/.477 with 19 HRs, 70 RBI, 52 runs, and five stolen bases over 127 games. Hopefully, he can get back on the field soon without taking a trip to the injured list. Shogo Akiyama will start in center for the second consecutive game. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere for outfield help, with Akiyama hitting just .200 with a .523 OPS over 87 games.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (rib) left Saturday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals prematurely after colliding with teammate Jose Barrero in the sixth inning. He was replaced by Shogo Akiyama. According to Bobby Nightengale of the Enquirer, he experienced bruised ribs. There is no word on the severity or if he'll have to take a trip to the injured list. It's bad news for fantasy managers, as Naquin's been a pleasant surprise, slashing .272/.335/.480 with 19 HRs, 70 RBI, 52 runs, and five stolen bases across 126 games. If he does miss time, expect the trio of Aristides Aquino, Akiyama, and Delino DeShields to get more playing time.
