The San Diego Padres still don't have a specific timetable for outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr.'s (thigh) return from the 10-day injured list. "We expect him to be back. Exactly when? That's something we've still got to get more information from our doctors. But every report I've gotten has been really positive," general manager A.J. Preller said recently. Tatis had an MRI exam during the All-Star break, which showed enough healing that he was cleared for light baseball activities, including swinging and running. However, he has yet to go on a minor-league rehab assignment as he works his way back from a right femoral stress reaction in his leg. The 25-year-old was put on the IL on June 24 and should be able to return before the end of August, but when exactly that will be is unknown. Fantasy managers must keep the All-Star outfielder stashed everywhere.
San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (quadriceps) had an MRI exam this week that showed the progress in healing that the Padres were hoping for. Tatis can now continue to incrementally increase his baseball activity and has already started playing catch and swinging a bat. The 25-year-old All-Star is trying to recover from a femoral stress reaction in his right quad. Currently, there is no timetable for his return to the Padres lineup, and fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if he doesn't return until August. Running full speed will be the last obstacle that Tatis must clear before he's reinstated from the injured list, and it's unclear if he'll require a minor-league rehab assignment before coming back. Obviously, Tatis is a must-stash player in all fantasy formats. Until he returns, Bryce Johnson and David Peralta will continue to form a platoon in right field for the Friars.
San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (quadriceps) is unlikely to play in the MLB All-Star game, according to Bernie Wilson of the Associated Press. San Diego skipper Mike Shildt spoke to the media and expressed that Tatis Jr. is still recovering from a stress reaction in his right thigh bone that caused him to hit the 10-day injured list on June 24. The 25-year-old was off to a great start to the campaign with an excellent .279/.354/.468 with 14 round-trippers, eight stolen bases, and 36 RBI. Under the hood, he held a .400 xwOBA, .309 xBA, and a .553 xSLG, which are some of the best marks in all of the sport. While he remains sidelined, David Peralta should continue to see the majority of starts in right field.
San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (quadriceps) told reporters on Monday that he knows he'll be out well past the All-Star break in mid-July. Tatis didn't get into an exact timetable, but fantasy managers are going to need to be patient here after he was placed on the 10-day injured list on Monday with a right femoral stress reaction in his quadriceps muscle. It's a tough break for fantasy managers and the Padres, as the 25-year-old outfielder has been strong offensively again in 2024 with a .279/.354/.468 slash line with 14 home runs, 36 RBI and an .822 OPS in 345 plate appearances. He needs to remain stashed in an IL spot in all fantasy formats. Bryce Johnson got the start in Monday's extra-inning win over the Washington Nationals after being called up from the minors, but David Peralta and Jose Azocar could also be involved in right field moving forward with Tatis sidelined.
San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (quadriceps) has been placed on the 10-day injured list ahead of Monday's game. This is a tough loss for the Padres, who are already dealing with multiple injuries. Manager Mike Shildt said that Tatis is dealing with a slight stress reaction in his quad. The team hasn't given a timetable for Tatis' return, but he'll likely miss multiple weeks of action. In a corresponding move, Bryce Johnson has been recalled from the minors. With Tatis out, the Padres figure to use some combination of David Peralta and Jose Azocar in right field, with Peralta on the strong side of a platoon against right-handed pitching.
