Sat Apr 1 202308:13Steven Kwan Plates Five In Win Over Seattle
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan turned in a big night at the plate in a 9-4 win over the Seattle Mariners on Friday. A night after Cleveland was shut out on Opening Day, Kwan led the offense, going 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, and five RBI in the win. Kwan plated his first run with a sacrifice fly in the second inning. He then tacked on a two-run double in the fourth and a two-run single in the fifth. The outfielder finished third in AL Rookie of the Year voting in 2022 and appears primed to keep it going in his sophomore campaign. He will face off against Seattle right-hander Logan Gilbert on Saturday and will be a solid fantasy option across the board for that matchup.

Sun Aug 7 202211:53Steven Kwan Returns Against Astros
Cleveland Guardians rookie outfielder Steven Kwan (foot) is back in left field and is hitting leadoff on Sunday against Houston Astros right-hander Cristian Javier. Kwan fouled a ball off his foot on Friday night and was held out of the lineup on Saturday as a precaution. The 24-year-old needs to be returned to starting fantasy lineups in single-year formats. He doesn't supply much power (only two home runs in 346 at-bats), but he's slashing .295/.367/.379 with 28 RBI, 51 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 391 plate appearances over 94 games for Cleveland. He's been hot since the All-Star break, too, going 25-for-70 (.357) with a homer, five RBI, 12 runs scored and four steals in 16 games.

Kwan fouled a ball off of his foot during the game and left for precautionary reasons. Before the injury, the rookie outfielder went 0-for-2 at the plate, ending his hit streak at 18 games. Kwan's rookie year has been solid, with the 24-year-old hitting .295 with two homers, 51 runs, 28 RBI, and nine steals over 346 at-bats.

Sun Jun 26 202213:19Steven Kwan Out Against Lefty On Sunday
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against southpaw Rich Hill and the Boston Red Sox. Owen Miller will be leading off for the game while Oscar Gonzalez and Ernie Clement will be the team's corner outfielders. Kwan has been hot at the plate once again in June. He's slashing .362/.400/.406 so far this month after posting a dreadful .173/.271/.253 slash line in May. Even when he's been hitting well this year, Kwan has mostly just been producing an empty batting average for fantasy purposes. Over 56 games on the year, he has accumulated one home run, four stolen bases, 18 RBI and 28 runs.

Thu Apr 28 202214:28Steven Kwan Remains Out Of Lineup
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Los Angeles Angels. Kwan left the game early on Sunday against the New York Yankees with right hamstring tightness and hasn't played since. It remains to be seen if the 24-year-old will need a trip to the injured list. The Guardians have used Josh Naylor, Ernie Clement and Richie Palacios in left field since Kwan suffered his injury, and now Oscar Mercado will get the nod in left field while hitting seventh on Thursday against Angels left-handed pitcher Reid Detmers. Kwan has been red-hot early this season, going 15-for-44 with seven RBI and 10 runs scored in his first 14 games, so the Guardians and fantasy managers are eager for his return to the lineup.

Sun Apr 24 202212:20Steven Kwan In The Lineup Sunday
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan (head) cleared the league's concussion protocol and is starting in left field and hitting second on Sunday against New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole. Kwan hit the outfield wall hard on Saturday in the ninth inning, but the 24-year-old rookie remained in the game after being checked out by a trainer. The left-handed hitter is off to a scorching start in his first 55 major league plate appearances, going 15-for-42 with no home runs, seven RBI and 10 runs scored in 13 games played. He has nine walks and six strikeouts. Kwan has a league-leading .473 on-base percentage, and fantasy managers may want to continue riding him while he's hot, but he'll have a tough matchup Sunday against Cole.

Mon Apr 11 202221:57Steven Kwan Red-Hot To Start The Year
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Steven Kwan went 1-for-3 with a triple, two walks, three RBI, and two runs in a 10-7 win over the Kansas City Royals on Monday. Kwan has been red-hot to start the season, going 9-for-13 with six runs, three RBI, and five walks in four games. The rookie outfielder has slid in nicely in the No. 2 spot in the Cleveland lineup despite this being his first taste of MLB pitching. He has shown a good eye at the plate and so far has been able to translate the excellent bat skills that he flashed in the minors to the big league level. Kwan is a strong waiver add in all fantasy leagues going forward.

Wed Apr 6 202218:18Steven Kwan To Start In Right Field For Season Opener
Cleveland Guardians outfield prospect Steven Kwan will make his MLB debut on Opening Day. He will be starting in right field in the game. The 24-year-old had a fantastic spring. Over 16 Spring Training games, he went 15-for-32 with two walks and zero strikeouts. Kwan has a history of being strikeout-averse. He only fanned 31 times over 77 minor league games at Double-A and Triple-A last year. He also showed a little bit of pop with 12 home runs over that 77-game stretch last year. In deep roto and head-to-head categories leagues where low strikeouts are highly-coveted, Kwan is a worthy add. He's also a solid add in AL-only leagues.
