Royals put Emmanuel Rivera (wrist) on IL
The Kansas City Royals put infielder Emmanuel Rivera on the 10-day injured list with a left hamate fracture.
Rivera was removed from Tuesday's game against the Red Sox due to pain in his left wrist. The nature of the injury may cause Rivera to miss more than the minimum 10 days. The Royals recalled outfielder Edward Olivares from Triple-A Omaha in a corresponding roster move. Hunter Dozier will move to third base for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox and hit fifth versus left-hander Martin Perez. Olivares will start in left field and hit seventh. Hanser Alberto could see additional playing time with Rivera out. He is starting at shortstop on Wednesday and batting ninth.
numberFire’s models project Dozier for 8.4 FanDuel points and he has a $2,500 salary on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the over/under in the Royals-Red Sox game (11.0 runs) is tied for the highest total on Wednesday's slate.
