ROS Rankings for First Baseman and Designated Hitter

Delivery: Kris Bryant (34th), Ben Rice (36th), Tyler Vlack (53rd), Bligh Madris (55th), Enrique Hernández (59th), Mark Canha (60th)

• I hate to drop Freddie Freeman like this, but the hairline fracture in his finger is clearly bothering him. Hopefully he can overcome it in the next two weeks, but he’s better off sitting out a short IL period.

• Christian Walker’s return from an oblique injury doesn’t seem far off, so Josh Bell drops to No. 40 here. He’s still worth playing until Walker is back, but there just won’t be much for him to do after that. Joc Pederson hasn’t played an inning in the outfield all year, and asking him to do so now doesn’t seem like much sense.
