Leo Jimenez

Leo Jimenez (illness) pulled from Friday’s Grapefruit League start

Leo Jimenez was scratched from Friday’s Grapefruit League lineup against the Yankees due to an illness, with Arjun Nimmala stepping in, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Jimenez is feeling under the weather, but the expectation is he’ll shake it off and return to action within a couple of days. His absence handed Nimmala a spot in the lineup for now. Fantasy managers don’t need to sweat this one—Jimenez’s spring prep should stay on track, though he’s more of a depth name than a draft target unless he carves out a bigger role.
