Eloy Jiménez's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Baltimore Orioles outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez is not in the team's starting lineup on Wednesday at Fenway Park against the division-rival Boston Red Sox. Jimenez finds himself on the bench again in favor of Anthony Santander, who is serving as the DH and batting third against Red Sox right-hander Nick Pivetta. Austin Slater is in right field and is batting seventh for the O's. Jimenez, 27, continues to see infrequent playing time in Baltimore towards the end of the season. He's now played in 29 games in Baltimore since being acquired in late July by the Chicago White Sox, and he's slashed a mediocre .253/.293/.345 with only one home run, five RBI and seven RBI in his 92 plate appearances. Without frequent playing time in Baltimore, it's hard to recommend holding Jimenez in most mixed fantasy leagues.

Baltimore Orioles rookie third baseman Coby Mayo and outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez will both start Monday's game on the bench against the Chicago White Sox at Camden Yards. Emmanuel Rivera will get the start at third base and will bat ninth, while Austin Slater will start in right field and bat seventh against White Sox right-hander Chris Flexen. Anthony Santander is the designated hitter and is batting cleanup. Mayo, the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, got the call-up on Sunday when rosters expanded and went 1-for-2 with a run scored and a strikeout in just his eighth big-league game. The 22-year-old has only two hits and 11 strikeouts in his first 23 major-league plate appearances in Baltimore, but he figures to see the majority of playing time at the hot corner for the O's with both Ramon Urias (ankle) and Jordan Westburg (hand) on the injured list.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder/designated hitter Eloy Jimenez will take a seat on Thursday against the division-rival Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. With Jimenez sitting against a right-hander, catcher Adley Rutschman is serving as the designated hitter and is batting fifth, while Ryan O'Hearn plays first base and bats cleanup. James McCann is catching and batting ninth against Red Sox right-hander Nick Pivetta. Rutschman is a must-start in all fantasy lineups, while O'Hearn will be a nice low-cost DFS play at first base in the cleanup spot. He's also hitting .333 with a homer and two at-bats in his career against Pivetta with a 1.166 OPS. Jimenez has gone 12-for-29 (.414) with two doubles and four RBI in his first 10 games since joining the O's in a trade from the Chicago White Sox, but he's settled into the short side of a platoon with O'Hearn, which limits his fantasy upside to close out the year.
