Kevin Kiermaier returns to the lineup for the Toronto Blue Jays against the New York Yankees Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Kiermaier is back after sitting out Friday’s series opener, batting ninth and starting in center field against the Yankees Saturday night.
Kevin Kiermaier is reportedly day-to-day with a right knee contusion.
Fantasy Impact
Kiermaier left Saturday's game early after fouling a pitch off his knee. He wasn't sent for any imaging, so it appears he escaped anything too serious. According to Zwelling, Kiermaier likely would’ve stayed in the game if it was the regular season.
Kevin Kiermaier is returning to the Blue Jays on a one-year, $10 million deal.
Fantasy Impact
Kiermaier should remain a strong defensive outfielder for Toronto, but his fantasy value is limited. He should remain in a similar role that he held last season with the Blue Jays.
Kevin Kiermaier had a solid performance in Sunday's game against the Royals, going 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI.
Fantasy Impact
This brings his season totals to seven home runs and 33 RBI. While Kiermaier's batting average of .274 is respectable, his strikeout rate of 0.206 and walk rate of 0.072 leave something to be desired. However, his ability to contribute in multiple categories, including stolen bases, makes him a valuable fantasy asset moving forward.
