Jonathan India's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Cincinnati Reds infielder Jonathan India (elbow) is back at second base and batting leadoff for the Reds on Tuesday versus the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals and right-hander Andre Pallante at Busch Stadium. India was pulled from Sunday's contest against the Atlanta Braves due to discomfort in his left elbow and missed Monday's series finale as a result, but he'll return to action to start a new series in St. Louis. The 27-year-old former fifth overall pick in 2018 out of Florida has gone hitless in his last four games and is batting .217 (5-for-23) so far in seven games in the month of September with a homer, double, two RBI, five walks, and eight strikeouts. India has produced modest power/speed numbers for fantasy managers in his fourth season in the big leagues with 14 homers, 12 stolen bases, 53 RBI and a .244/.348/.390 slash line in his 134 contests.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (elbow) is out of the starting lineup on Monday against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. With India riding pine to start, Santiago Espinal will take over second-base duties and will hit sixth against Braves right-hander Charlie Morton. India was forced to leave Sunday's game early in the series finale against the New York Mets with discomfort in his left elbow and will now miss the series opener in Atlanta. Until we know more, the 27-year-old should be considered day-to-day, but it doesn't appear to be an injury that would keep him out long-term. Espinal has never faced Morton in his career. He's been seeing more playing time of late due to injuries around Cincy's infield, and although Espinal doesn't have a ton of power or speed, he's gone 7-for-22 (.318) with a double and five RBI in seven games in September.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India piled up three hits in Wednesday night's win over the visiting division-rival St. Louis Cardinals at Great American Ball Park, crushing two home runs with four RBI in the victory. Before clobbering a solo homer off Cardinals right-hander Kyle Gibson to center to pad the Reds' lead in the fifth inning, India mashed a three-run jack to give Cincinnati a 3-0 lead in the third frame on Wednesday. On the campaign as a whole, the former National League Rookie of the Year is slashing .249/.353/.395 with 11 long balls, 62 runs scored, and 10 stolen bases covering 469 plate appearances.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India will take a seat on the bench for Monday's series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals. India has been in a bit of a slump at the plate over the past few weeks, hitting just .109 with one home run, two doubles, and one RBI since July 24. The day off will allow the 27-year-old to reset amid his slump. Spencer Steer will lead off and play second base in his place, while Will Benson, TJ Friedl, and Jake Fraley will occupy the three outfield spots on Monday. India should be back in the lineup for Tuesday's contest.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India went 2-for-3 with a home run and a walk on Saturday afternoon. The infielder launched a solo shot in the third inning and a single later in the fifth. Entering this game, the 27-year-old was riding a poor .149/.281/.191 line without a long ball and only two extra-base hits. Hopefully, this multi-hit effort can get the Florida product back on track. Across 102 games this season, India carries a .262/.366/.406 line with a .355 xwOBA and .281 xBA which suggest his numbers could continue to climb in the second half. India remains a solid option at middle infield as he is typically found leading off for the Reds.
