He was hitting in the #2 spot, where Cameron Maybin has been hitting, but with Maybin out 2-3 days coach Fredi Gonzalez out Simmons in the slot. Simmons responded well, hitting his twelfth double and scoring his 33rd run.
Fantasy Impact
Simmons scored well for owners tonight. He has slipped recently but here is where patience will pay big rewards for you. You most likely got him cheap and he has rewarded you. Hang in there with him.
