Cincinnati Reds 21 hours agoDavid DeJesus succeeding in platoon role
CBSSports.com Fantasy — Cubs outfielder David DeJesus hasn't been playing against lefties, but that might be for the best. DeJesus has been a much better hitter against righties over his career. In 3,157 at-bats, DeJesus has a .293/.368/.453 line against right-handers. DeJesus has continued that success and is hitting .314/.382/.559 in 118 at-bats against righties this year. Although a platoon isn't ideal for Fantasy owners, DeJesus is in the better half of a platoon situation. He should see a fair amount of playing time against right-handers, and that should keep him in the lineup fairly often.
