Eli White

Eli White was traded from the Texas Rangers to the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday in exchange for cash.

Fantasy Impact

White missed most of the 2022 season with knee and wrist issues. In 117 plate appearances with the Rangers, he did manage to steal 12 bases despite having just a .274 OBP. He will likely be used as a pinch runner and defensive replacement.

Eli White was placed on the injured list on Monday with a wrist fracture after suffering a collision on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

As a result of White being placed on the IL, the Rangers have recalled prospect outfielder Leody Taveras. White will likely not participate in baseball activities in six-to-eight weeks, which puts him on track to return in September. The outfielder was hitting .200 with three homers, 10 RBIs and 12 stolen bases through 105 at-bats in 2022 before this injury that firmly puts him out of fantasy consideration.

Eli White left Sunday's game against the White Sox in the 11th inning with an injury.

Fantasy Impact

White collided with Charlie Culberson in left-center on a ball hit by Danny Mendick. White was down on the field for awhile before he was eventually helped off the field. It looked like a right arm injury. There should be more information out on White and his status soon. Kole Calhoun moved to center field with Brad Miller entering the game in right field.

Eli White went 3-for-4 with two RBIs, two runs and one strikeout Monday against the Rays.

Fantasy Impact

White extended the Rangers lead to 4-1 with a two-run home run in the third inning. He also picked up a highlight in the field, robbing Ji-Man Choi of a home run in what might end up being the best defensive play of the year.

Eli White went 1-for-5 with one RBI, one run and four strikeouts on Tuesday against the Angels.

Fantasy Impact

White capped off a seven-run eighth inning with a single that scored Nate Lowe and Sam Huff, while White scored himself on the same play on an error by Brandon Marsh.
