Steven Kwan injury update
According to Joe Noga of The Cleveland Plain Dealer, Steven Kwan will not play in Sunday’s game against the Cubs. This is only the fourth time this season that Kwan has been benched, with two instances occurring this weekend.
While the Guardians have not released any information on the injury, it does raise speculation as Kwan has been playing consistently and earning regular minutes. Fantasy managers should stay updated on his status as he’s still recovering from a nagging shoulder injury suffered in Saturday’s win and Cleveland prepares to face Atlanta in Monday’s upcoming series.
