Matt Wieters sits out as he continues to work his way back

Matt Wieters sat out Wednesday's game against Boston. He is not back up to being able to play back-to-back days behind the plate but is producing when he plays.

Fantasy Impact:

Wieters is an elite player at catcher when he is healthy. It is too soon to know whether his high average from part of a season last year and a few games this season will become the new norm. If his average stays high and he stays healthy, he is a top-5 candidate at catcher. Those able to make daily lineup decision should keep an eye out for the games he sits out and have a decent backup option in place.
