Player Notes

September 22, 2009
Willy Taveras has been activated off the DL by the Reds, according to the team's Twitter page. Taveras has been out since August 19 with a strained right quad.

Our View:Taveras has been running the bases and doing baseball activity for a week or so, and the team feels he is healthy enough to finish out the season. He shouldn't be much of a fantasy concern for anyone unless you are absolutely desperate for stolen bases and there are no other options out there.

September 14, 2009
MLB.com is reporting that Reds' outfielder Willy Taveras has started running the bases. There is a good chance that Taveras will be activated by the team sometime in the next week.

Our View:The Reds could use Taveras back at the top of the lineup, as they are trying to finish out their disappointing season on a high note. Any time you can get a guy with speed like Taveras has back in the lineup, it is an upgrade.

August 19, 2009
Willy Taveras has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right quadriceps, according to MLB.com's Mark Sheldon.

Our View:Drew Stubbs has been called up to take his spot on the roster. Taveras has 25 steals this season, but is batting just .238, and shouldn't be missed too much in most leagues, especially since his injury is a leg injury, which could make it harder for him to run at 100 percent when he returns.

August 18, 2009
The Associated Press reports that Willy Taveras exited Tuesday's game against the Giants with a strained quad.

Our View:Taveras left the game in the seventh after running out a grounder to first, and is considered day-to-day. Laynce Nix replaced him in the lineup.

August 14, 2009
Willy Taveras, 2-for-4, was the only Red with multiple hits on Friday night, as Garrett Mock and the Nationals silenced Cincinnati 2-0 at home.

Our View:Even with his 24 steals, it's hard to justify owning Taveras because of his woeful .239 batting average. If you need steals, fine. If not, stay away.
