Tyler Wade Benched, Ha-Seong Kim Returns to Play

Tyler Wade will not be in the San Diego Padres’ starting lineup in their Thursday game. They have made this lineup change because Ha-Seong Kim is returning to the field, taking his shortstop spot. Kim will be batting eighth against the pittsburgh pirates.

Wade is a talented player and has been very versatile thanks to his ability to play several positions. However, he is going back to the bench to allow Kim to continue with his activity. This is one of the constant roster changes that happen in the Major League Baseball over the season. Indeed, MLB is an endurance-focused game and as such the management will keep changing the players in the starting line-up over the long season to preserve them and also allow them to play smart. For the fantasy baseball owners, this is important information. Wade is being given some rest; thus, he may not earn you points on your fantasy teams. On the other hand, there may be a chance that Kim will be able to score some points. Therefore, pay more attention to any additional news about the arguments made by the Padres.
