The latest Endy Chavez MLB and fantasy baseball news

Tue, 23 Apr 2013 15:30:02 -0700

Seattle Mariners OF Endy Chavez will see the bulk of playing time in center field, and OF Jason Bay will be the emergency center fielder with OF Franklin Gutierrez (hamstring) on the disabled list.

Fantasy Tip: Chavez should now be a consideration for ownership in deep enough mixed leagues for his speed contributions and the fact that he'll be playing pretty much every day with Gutierrez out of the picture.

Seattle Mariners OF Franklin Gutierrez (hamstring) left the game early with tightness in his right hamstring Monday, April 22, and manager Eric Wedge said Gutierrez may go on the disabled list. The team hopes to learn more about his injury Tuesday, April 23.

Fantasy Tip: Expect Gutierrez to land on the DL when Michael Saunders (shoulder) is activated later this week. Endy Chavez should continue playing center field in the meantime. He should be owned in AL-only leagues.

Seattle Mariners OF Franklin Gutierrez (pelvis) said his current injury problems have originated in his pelvic area, and it has impacted other parts of his legs. "I have some issues with my pelvis, so I'm trying to fix it," he said. "Some days it's my groin. Some days it's my hamstring. It's different, but I'm working on it." Gutierrez has been having the problems since spring training.

Fantasy Tip: Gutierrez just can't seem to stay healthy for the life of him. Because he isn't playing on a consistent basis, he's a risky option in mixed formats, and there's a possibility the team places him on the DL when Michael Saunders (shoulder) returns this week. Endy Chavez should retain value as long as Gutierrez is injured.

Seattle Mariners OF Franklin Gutierrez (legs) is out of the lineup for the second straight day with stiffness in his legs Friday, April 19. "We're still trying to help him with his lower half," manager Eric Wedge said. "I think it's tough with his hips, where it gets a little bit out of line and that's where it affects his legs." Gutierrez could be used as a pinch hitter later in the game, though. The team may choose to part ways with OFs Raul Ibanez or Jason Bay when OF Michael Saunders (shoulder) returns from the disabled list next week instead of risking OF Endy Chavez to waivers.

Fantasy Tip: The Mariners would probably prefer to keep Chavez around just because Gutierrez has had trouble staying on the field. Saunders can play center field, too, if Chavez is placed on waivers. The bottom line is that Bay and Ibanez will lose out on playing time when Saunders returns.

Seattle Mariners OF Endy Chavez is leading off Friday, April 12, with OFs Michael Saunders (shoulder) and Mike Morse (finger) out of the lineup. OF Franklin Gutierrez played his fifth straight game Thursday, April 11. OF Jason Bay is in right field and OF Raul Ibanez is starting in left.

Fantasy Tip: Expect Chavez to see pretty regular playing time because Seattle wants to keep Gutierrez fresh to avoid health problems he's had in the past. Chavez can also rotate at the other outfield positions when Bay or Ibanez need a breather. Morse is expected to be out up to a week, so plan accordingly.

Seattle Mariners OF Michael Saunders (shoulder) is expected to be placed on the 15-day disabled list Thursday, April 11, and OF Endy Chavez is likely who will replace him on the roster. Saunders is hoping that he is dealing with an AC joint sprain, and he's hoping to be back rather quickly.

Fantasy Tip: Saunders can probably be dropped in most cavernous mixed formats. Jason Bay and Raul Ibanez could wind up platooning in right field in the meantime, but both are more suited to contribute for you in AL leagues. Chavez will likely be used as outfield depth and to spell Franklin Gutierrez in center field on occasion.
