Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (knee) was able to take batting practice ahead of Saturday's contest against the Tampa Bay Rays. Anderson has been sidelined since early April due to a left knee sprain. The organization said Anderson is set to miss two-to-four weeks from the injury. It appears that he is progressing well in his recovery, but is still a few weeks away from a return. Fantasy managers should expect Anderson to return in early or mid-May.

It is hard to believe, but this coming week is the last week of April already. The baseball season is almost a full month old. The baseball season is 15% over, with a lot more baseball still to come. There are many surprise teams doing well and there are many players who are surprising us as well, good and bad. A lot of the players underperforming for us in fantasy may be doing so because of injury. Injuries could be holding back a player's potential and even keeping them off of the field. ...

In the past week we've lost stalwarts like Corey Seager, Tim Anderson, and Oneil Cruz to multi-week injuries. Throw in Orlando Arcia, who was the headliner in this article last week, and tons of fantasy managers are turning to the waiver wire for help.Look no further. We've got a fresh batch of names below who could help fill the void left by all the players going on ...

It is mid April and we are in full swing of tax season right now. We have to pay the government taxes, for those who owe money, in order to keep public services paid for. Currently, the fantasy baseball season is having its own tax season of sorts. Those of us who drafted injured players and are now being hit by in-season injuries are now paying the price of the log jam on our benches. We now have to start making decisions on who to save and who to cut to help us navigate this early baseball ...

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (knee), who was placed on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a sprained left knee, will miss two to four weeks, according to the team. In a corresponding move, infielder Lenyn Sosa was called up from the minors, and he could see regular playing time at second base, with Elvis Andrus likely to move over to the 6 with Anderson out. Fantasy managers will be hoping that Anderson can return on the short end of a two- to four-week timetable. The ...

The Chicago White Sox are placing shortstop Tim Anderson (knee) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a sprained left knee. They recalled infielder Lenyn Sosa from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. Anderson left Monday's game early against the Minnesota Twins with left knee soreness, but it turned out to be more than just soreness. He's one of the best shortstops in the game, so fantasy managers will need to keep him stashed in all formats. The 29-year-old was off to a good ...

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (knee) exited Monday's game against the Minnesota Twins early with left knee soreness. Anderson appeared to hurt his knee in a rundown when he attempted to tag out Matt Walner as he ran toward third base. He is currently undergoing further evaluation and the team should provide an update on his status after the game is over. Elvis Andrus is taking over at shortstop the rest of the way.

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson and third baseman Yoan Moncada (rib) are expected to return to the team's Cactus League lineup on Friday after playing for Team USA and Team Cuba, respectively, in the World Baseball Classic. Moncada collided with his teammate in the outfield in the semifinal game against Team USA on Sunday, but he avoided a concussion and will be fine for Opening Day on March 30. Chicago's left side of the infield will need to stay healthy all year so that the team can...

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (groin) was hitting .356/.393/.503 at the end of May last year while swinging and missing less than ever despite remaining aggressive at the plate. But a groin injury interrupted his hot streak, and he was never able to get back on track. He was unable to re-establish his same leg load and the separation that made his swing so consistent before his injury. Anderson finished with an average over .300 for the fourth straight year, but he hit .249/.287/.290...

Like most of his teammates, Anderson spent a lot of time on the IL in 2022, racking up just 351 Major League plate appearances. In that time, he hit .301/.339/.395 with six homers and 13 steals - business as normal for the White Sox lead-off man. Since we're past the days of the juiced baseball, Anderson no longer profiles as a 20+ homer guy. What you get from him is a bunch of runs, a high batting average, and a good supply of steals. He is still just 29 and certainly isn't losing his spot at ...
