Will Venable (paternity list) returns to Padres lineup on Sunday

Will Venable will return to the Padres lineup on Sunday and bat eighth as the Padres face the Phillies in San Diego.

What It Means:

The Padres bats have a prime matchup today against Jerome Williams who is allowing a whopping .404 wOBA to righties and a .365 wOBA to lefties. Venable has a .319 wOBA against right-handers this season but it's down to .261 versus righties at home, which is similar to his numbers from last year. His eighth spot in the order should eliminate him from fantasy consideration today.
