Cincinnati Reds infielder Jonathan India (knee) has been scratched from Tuesday's starting lineup against the Colorado Rockies. It sounds like the Reds will take the cautious approach here with India dealing with a left-knee contusion. This doesn't sound too serious, so hopefully India will only miss a game or two. In the meantime, Santiago Espinal will take over at second base and bat eighth versus right-hander Cal Quantrill on Tuesday. Fantasy managers who have India rostered should adjust their lineups ahead of first pitch.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India put together a strong performance in Thursday's victory versus the New York Yankees. Hitting out of the leadoff spot, India went 3-for-5 with a home run on the afternoon. India has dealt with his fair share of injuries throughout his career, but has played in 80 out of 87 this season. Throughout that time, the 27-year-old is hitting a productive .278 with six homers, 35 RBI and eight stolen bases. With his recent move to the top of the order, India should see more runs scored and that adds to his value. His injury history suggests that India could be a good sell-high candidate and now is the perfect time as he has been scorching hot with a .356 batting average, three homers and 16 RBI over the past month.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India halted a slump in Friday's win over the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers, mashing his third home run of the season. India smacked a grand slam to left field off Dodgers left-hander Alex Vesia, giving the Reds a 9-5 lead in the fifth inning. Entering Friday's action just 1-for-21 in his last seven outings, India raised his triple-slash line to what's still a weak .223/.335/.318 to go with three homers, 15 RBI, 16 runs scored, and four stolen bases over 185 plate appearances (44 games) as Cincy's everyday second baseman this season. India's playing time is still locked in until Noelvi Marte (suspension) returns later this summer, and he's now batting .302 with two long balls, seven RBI, five runs scored in 12 games versus the Dodgers since 2022 with two more outings against LA on tap this weekend.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (migraine) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday with a migraine. He was also held out of Wednesday's lineup for the same reason. The 27-year-old should still be considered day-to-day. As a result, Santiago Espinal will get the starting nod at the keystone and bat in the eight-hole. Espinal has been swinging a hot bat as of late with a .400/.438/.600 line across his past five games with one home run. However, he has a tough task tonight in Tyler Glasnow, who enters Thursday with a 2.53 ERA and 73 punchouts across 57 innings, and is best to fade him in DFS this evening.
Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (head) was scratched from the lineup on Wednesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks due to a migraine headache. With India out of the lineup, Spencer Steer will move to second base and bat cleanup, while Jacob Hurtubise will play left field and hit in the nine-hole against Diamondbacks right-hander Brandon Pfaadt. Fantasy mangers should consider India day-to-day for now. It remains to be seen if he'll be feeling good enough to return for Thursday's series opener in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. The 27-year-old former Rookie of the Year is hitting just .228 (31-for-136) on the year but is playing everyday with Matt McLain (shoulder) sidelined for the foreseeable future. Steer is hitting 6-for-17 (.353) with two doubles and six RBI during his current five-game hitting streak.
