Hunter Dozier is not in the Royals' lineup for their Monday game against Cleveland.
Fantasy Impact
Dozier is set to take some swings on Monday to see how his thumb responds. For those in weekly lineup leagues, it's simply too uncertain to risk putting Dozier in your lineup this week, considering he's already out on Monday. This doesn't sound like an IL situation just yet, but fantasy managers will obviously want to see how today's swinging session goes. Hanser Alberto will start at third base for the Royals on Monday.

Fantasy Impact
Dozier (thumb) isn’t expected to miss much time and is considered day-to-day. “Hunter Dozier's hand is still swollen, but they don't think the issue is too serious or he'll miss much time,” per Matheny. No roster move is imminent for the Royals at the moment. Hanser Alberto will continue to handle third base duties while Dozier is sidelined.
