Travis Ishikawa placed on 15-day disabled list

The Pittsburgh Pirates have placed Travis Ishikawa on 15-day disabled list with a 'lower back strain'. Ishikawa has just been an of-the-bench bat, so this was merely to make space on the 25-man roster for Jordy Mercer. However, he will be back on the 40-man roster once he returns from the disabled list.

Fantasy Impact

Travis Ishikawa is not a valid fantasy option because he doesn't get consistent playing time in Pittsburgh. He is just a bat off the bench, and a replacement every now and then. Steer clear of him in your fantasy league.

Travis Ishikawa drives in four runs versus Royals

The Pirates pounded 17 hits in defeating the Royals on Monday, 10-7. Travis Ishikawa had a big night, going 3-for-5 with two doubles, a home run and four RBI. Ishikawa is now batting .174 this season.

Fantasy Impact

Ishikawa's home run was his first this season. He has only 23 at-bats and while his OPS of ..731 is decent, he likely will not see enough playing time to have significant fantasy value.

Giants designate Travis Ishikawa for assignment

The Giants have designated 2014 post-season hero Travis Ishikawa for assignment.

Fantasy Impact

Travis Ishikawa has been in AAA Sacramento rehabbing on his DL stint, and he may stay there for the forseeable future. Ishikawa has distinct usefulness as a backup 1B/OF option. Depending where he ends up he may have usefulness in NL or NL-only leagues.

Travis Ishikawa re-signs with Giants

The Giants and Travis Ishikawa agreed to a one-year, $1.1 million contract.

Fantasy Impact

Brian Sabean is notorious for rewarding San Francisco's postseason heroes, but given Ishikawa's projected small arbitration number, he wisely restrained himself. Ishikawa is in his second stint with the Giants after he started his career next to McCovey Cove. He was a disaster in left field last postseason, and the Giants are tied to nearly every free agent outfielder, so he's set to be a backup, limiting his fantasy value.

Giants tender contract to Travis Ishikawa

The Giants tendered a contract to playoff hero Travis Ishikawa. He is expected to make $800,000 in arbitration.

Fantasy Impact

Ishikawa had the heroic walk-off home run in the NLCS, but was a nightmare defensively in the outfield during the post-season. The Giants have been rumored to be in on nearly every mid-level free agent outfielder, so it is clear they don't intend for him to be a starter in 2015, limiting his fantasy value.
