Sore shoulder "not a serious issue" for Jason Kipnis

2B Jason Kipnis played DH for the second straight game in the loss to the A's on Saturday. And for the second straight game he went 0-for-4.

Fantasy Impact:

Indians' manager Terry Francona said "His throwing shoulder is a bit sore. I don't think it is anything we need to worry about. I'll let him DH another night. I don't think that will hurt him". As long as the shoulder issue does not linger and regardless of the slight difference in output (.882 OPS at 2B and .702 OPS at DH), you should continue with Jason Kipnis in your lineup, wherever he plays. Despite the two hitless games, he has a .345/.400/.414 slash line since the All-Star break.
