Eligibility

Fantasy Impact
Chang was designated for assignment by the Rays on September 9th. The 27-year-old is slashing .216/.280/.324 with four home runs and 14 runs batted in this season. Chang likely will not carry any fantasy value moving forward.

Fantasy Impact
Chang struggled with the Guardians and Pirates earlier this season but has found new life in Tampa Bay. Over 36 games with the Rays, he owns a .260/.305/.385 slash line, three homers, 12 RBI, seven walks, and 27 strikeouts.
Rays third baseman Yu Chang went 1-for-4 with a solo homer against the Brewers on Wednesday afternoon. Tampa Bay ultimately fell to Milwaukee by a score of 4-3 in 10 innings.
Fantasy Impact
Chang is slashing .333/.375/.511 with two homers, six RBI, three walks, and 15 strikeouts through 45 at-bats since joining the Rays. He should still be left on waivers due to a lack of playing time and small sample size.

Fantasy Impact
Chang is 20-for-90 (.222) with two homers, six RBI, six walks, and 40 strikeouts through 36 games this season. He has donned a Guardians, Pirates, and Rays jersey this year alone. Chang currently owns a five-game hitting streak during which he has gone 7-for-13 (.538).
Yu Chang batted 2-for-4 with a single and double for two RBIs in the win over Baltimore.
Fantasy Impact
Chang has been in and out of the lineup all season, but potentially had his best game of the season tonight. Despite the game, this will likely not move the needle for his playing time.
