Fantasy Analysis
Rhymes passed out after being hit by a pitch on the arm, but that was never really an issue as it was just an adrenaline rush. He's back in the lineup and all has been forgotten. The 29-year-old entered Saturday riding a four-game hitting to boost his batting average to .283. With everyday playing time, he should be viewed as a low-end option in AL-only Fantasy formats.
