Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India's trade value is increasing because of his own performance and the needs of suitors like the New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners. India has a .376 OBP when batting leadoff this season, and the Yankees have a .277 OBP in the leadoff spot, so it's a glaring need for them. Due to the struggles of J.P Crawford atop Seattle's lineup, the Mariners are also expressing interest in India's services. The 27-year-old former National League Rookie of the Year's fantasy value could benefit by a move to the Bronx, where he would likely slot in ahead of American League MVP candidates Juan Soto and Aaron Judge in New York's lineup, but he'd be leaving the hitter-friendly dimensions of the Great American Ball Park, where he's slashing .281/.383/.456 in 47 games this year.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (knee) is starting on Sunday afternoon at second base and will bat in the leadoff spot. The 27-year-old left Saturday's game early after suffering a left knee contusion. This is a great sign, as India appears to have avoided a significant injury. India has enjoyed a power surge through the first half of the month, launching three long balls and two doubles with a strong .512 SLG. India also entered Saturday with a three-game hit streak. He has a great matchup today against Miami southpaw Trevor Rogers, who has posted a 4.40 ERA and 1.81 across his previous three starts and is worth a look in all DFS formats.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India left Saturday's game against the Miami Marlins early with what the team announced as a left knee contusion. India was replaced by Santiago Espinal in the top of the fourth after being involved in a collision during a slide earlier in the game. The 27-year-old was also scratched from Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies with the same injury, placing further concern on India re-aggravating the injury. With the All-Star break right around the corner, fantasy managers should expect India to get some rest tomorrow to prepare for their first game of the second half next Friday against the Washington Nationals. Expect Espinal to start at second base on Sunday while Noelvi Marte should slide into the DH role against Marlins starter Trevor Rogers.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India went yard in his team's 6-5 loss to the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday. India finished the night 1-for-4 with a homer and two RBI. His homer, a solo shot, came off Colorado starter Kyle Freeland in the third inning. The ball traveled 415 feet and had an exit velocity of 108.4 MPH. India is now hitting .269 with seven homers, 44 runs, 37 RBI, and eight steals across 297 at-bats. He has been on a tear of late, hitting .351 over his past 15 contests, making him worth a look in starting lineups in deeper fantasy leagues.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (knee) is back in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the visiting Colorado Rockies and left-hander Kyle Freeland, serving as the designated hitter and batting leadoff. India will return to action after he was scratched from Tuesday's lineup with a left-knee contusion. It obviously wasn't a very serious injury for the 27-year-old, although he won't return to the field just yet. Santiago Espinal is playing second again and is hitting ninth. India has cooled off a bit in July but has hit .375 (27-for-72) with two home runs, 13 doubles, seven RBI, seven walks, two steals and 16 runs scored in 19 games since June 18. Fantasy managers will want to get him back into their lineups in a juicy matchup against Freeland. India has three hits in six career at-bats against Freeland.
