J.T. Realmuto (hip), out since September 12th with a hip flexor strain, is in the line-up, catching for the Phillies on Tuesday. There had been some debate as to whether or not Realmuto would be DHing in his return to the Philly line-up but manager Joe Girardi said that Realmuto will catch in Game One of the Phillies doubleheader on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact:
Realmuto is slashing .267/.357/.527 with 11 home runs in 150 at-bats for the Phillies this season. His 1.7 WAR leads all catchers and his 14.2% Barrel % is in the 88th percentile among qualified hitters. Owners in standard 12-team redraft leagues can start him with confidence.
