ZACH PLESAC

Zach Plesac was apparently more trouble than he's worth, at least for the people tasked with arguing his case. I think Zach Plesac knew this one wasn't coming back pic.twitter.com/8AeCdiuogq — Casey Drottar (@CDrottar19) August 28, 2022It's not often you see a baseball agent cut ties with a player like Plesac, who holds a 4.39 ERA this season and a 4.06 mark on his career. The pair's teammates were unhappy with how it all went down, with one telling reporters "they lied to us." Plesac was eventually allowed to return to the team that season. So that's three straight seasons in which Plesac has lost significant time on the field because of a self-destructive incident.

With just three days of games remaining until the All-Star break, fantasy baseball managers should be focused more than ever on players who can help them this weekend.

He also hit 13 homers and posted a 1.027 OPS before making his MLB debut on July 12.

CLEVELAND – For the third time in less than a year, the Cleveland Indians are having to isolate players because they broke COVID-19 protocols.

But these are the rules we’re playing under and the more we follow them, the better chance it gives us to be a complete baseball team.
