Player Notes

July 3, 2009
According to the official Twitter page of the Cincinnati Reds, the team has activated third baseman Edwin Encarnacion from the DL. In a corresponding move, the team placed Danny Richar on the DL with a torn labrum in his left shoulder.

Our View:Encarnacion has been out for most of the season, but when healthy he can still be a major offensive threat. His fantasy value is low right now, but if he starts hitting he could be a solid second half option.

June 30, 2009
Reds' skipper Dusty Baker does not intend to activate Edwin Encarnacion from the DL at any point during their current six-game homestand, according to the Dayton Daily News. He is recovering from a broken left wrist.

Our View:Baker added that Encarnacion may be ready to return during the Reds' next road trip. He shall remain patiently stashed on fantasy rosters.

June 27, 2009
According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, Edwin Encarnacion doubled and drew three walks in a rehab assignment on Friday.

Our View:Encarnacion has been on the shelf with a fractured wrist since April 28th, but is close to coming off the 60-day DL. He should return sometime in the next two weeks, but beware of a power outage when he returns as wrist injuries tend to sap a hitter pop.

June 16, 2009
Edwin Encarnacion took batting practice on Tuesday according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Our View:Encarnacion has been out since April 28 with a fractured wrist. He is expected to soon go on a minor league rehab assignment, and could be back with the Reds sometime in the next month.

June 10, 2009
An MRI on Edwin Encarnacion's injured left wrist has confirmed that the third basemen has suffered a setback in his recovery according to the Cincinnati Inquirer. It is not known when he will be able to begin a rehab assignment.

Our View:2009 is shaping up to be a lost season for the Reds slugger. He was batting only .129 before the injury and now it appears that the team doesn't really know when he's coming back. If you have no other injuries, he's probably still worth stashing on your disabled list, but higher priority should be given to just about any other player. Players who suffer wrist injuries, like David Ortiz or Derrek Lee, tend to not hit as well once they come back, especially in the short term. So the odds of Encarnacion being a productive fantasy player this year are slim.
