Detriot Tigers OF JD Martinez will begin the season on the disabled list. Martinez is projected to be out for 3-4 weeks with a sprained Lisfranc ligament. (Jason Beck on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact:

Martinez seems to have an issue staying healthy only playing in 120 games last season. While he did hit 22 home runs and drove in 68 RBI is hard to roster or draft someone who can't play regularly. JD should be dropped a bit in your draft rankings as we don't know how long this injury will linger, but he can also now be considered an investment pick in the later rounds if he can come back healthy.
