Availability
The Red Sox have placed infielder Anthony Seigler on the 10-day injured list with a left knee patellar tendinopathy.
Fantasy Impact
Seigler was unable to get into any spring games for the Red Sox after making his MLB debut for the Brewers last season. The 26-year-old struggled to a .194 average without a homer in that time, but has a monster season at Triple-A where he hit .285 with eight homers, 23 stolen bases, and an .892 OPS across 72 games.
Seigler was acquired from Milwaukee in a trade this offseason. Manager Alex Cora said Tuesday that Seigler is nursing a knee injury initially suffered during the Dominican Winter League.
Fantasy Impact
Seigler felt fine at the start of camp, but the knee is now bothering him again. He is competing for a reserve role with Boston.
Infielder Anthony Seigler is heading to the Boston Red Sox, along with Caleb Durbin and Andruw Monasterio. Boston also receives a Competitive Balance Round B pick. In return, Milwaukee gets David Hamilton, Kyle Harrison, and Shane Drohan.
Fantasy Impact
Seigler made his big league debut last season in Milwaukee and batted .194 across 73 plate appearances. He is a lifetime .230 hitter with 37 home runs and 77 RBI in 451 career minor league games. The third baseman will likely open the year in Triple-A Worcester.
The Brewers optioned C/INF Anthony Seigler to Triple-A Nashville.
Fantasy Impact
Seigler has struggled since being called up in July. He will return to the minors.
The Brewers selected the contract of C/INF Anthony Seigler from Triple-A Nashville.
Fantasy Impact
This move was announced over the weekend and it's now official with Seigler set to make his MLB debut. He can contribute both behind the plate and in some spots in the infield for the Brewers. It is not clear what his immediate role will be.
