Jacoby Ellsbury is not in the Red Sox' lineup Sunday.

Ellsbury had played every inning of every game to this point, so the club finally decided to give him a breather. The outfielder is batting just .189/.268/.230 in May. Shane Victorino is handling center field Sunday, while Daniel Nava is in right.

Jacoby Ellsbury went 0-for-5 on Thursday, dropping his average to .249.

Ellsbury is in a 6-for-46 slump, and he's swiped just one base in May after stealing 11 in April. We wouldn't expect this to continue, but his fantasy value has dipped somewhat, as it appears that there's not much chance of his home run power coming back this year.

Jacoby Ellsbury is hitting .279/.333/.402 with one homer, 12 RBI and a league-leading 11 steals this season.

Ellsbury didn't steal a single base during spring training, but he's been running wild since the regular season began. It remains to be seen how much power the outfielder will hit for, but he'll be a strong source of steals, runs and batting average as long as he stays healthy.

Jacoby Ellsbury went 3-for-6 with two RBI in Monday's 8-2 season-opening defeat of the Yankees.

The game took about four hours, but the end result was a positive one for the visiting Red Sox. Ellsbury led the charge offensively, hitting a triple and two singles. If he can stay healthy, he should be a hugely productive fantasy outfielder throughout the 2013 season.

The Red Sox announced that Jacoby Ellsbury did not require an MRI on his right heel.

A previous report indicated that Ellsbury did go for an MRI, but it was actually Shane Victorino who required an MRI on his wrist. Either way, Ellsbury's injury is considered minor and he's expected to return to action Thursday.
