Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joey Gallo (elbow) left the game early on Wednesday against the division-rival San Francisco Giants with a right elbow contusion after he was hit by a pitch in the second inning of play. For now, fantasy managers should consider Gallo to be day-to-day, but the 28-year-old could be ready to go for the series opener on Friday against the San Diego Padres after an off day on Thursday. Gallo came into Wednesday's game with a .203/.311/.469 slash line with four homers and 13 RBI in 24 games for the Dodgers after being dealt from the New York Yankees at the trade deadline. Overall, he's hitting an embarrassing .168 with 16 home runs, 37 RBI, 42 runs scored and two stolen bases in 106 games.

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joey Gallo is making his debut with the team on Thursday against San Francisco Giants right-hander Jakob Junis, starting in left field and hitting sixth in the batting order. Gallo was dealt from the New York Yankees to the Dodgers at the trade deadline on Tuesday, but he didn't get the starting nod on Wednesday. The 28-year-old left-handed slugger was a disaster in his second season with the Yanks this year, hitting an embarrassing .159/.282/.339 with 12 home runs, 24 RBI, 32 runs scored and two stolen bases in 82 games. The Dodgers are hoping they can help him turn things around at the plate. Nobody is debating that Gallo still has prodigious power, but he'll need to make more consistent contact in order to be useful in the second half of the season with his new team.

According to a tweet from Sports Illustrated's Pat Ragazzo on Tuesday, the Los Angeles Dodgers acquired outfielder Joey Gallo from the New York Yankees for minor league pitcher Clayton Beeter. The outfielder is batting .159 with a .282 on-base percentage, 12 home runs and two stolen bases in 273 plate appearances this season. He'll give the Dodgers another power option in the outfield, but as was the case in New York, he might not see much playing time, especially if he continues to strike out in bunches. Currently, Los Angeles' outfield options on the active roster include Mookie Betts, Cody Bellinger, Trayce Thompson, and James Outman.

The New York Yankees are getting interest in outfielder Joey Gallo, according to sources, and it would be something of a surprise if he wasn't traded by Tuesday's 6:00 pm ET deadline. Gallo has really struggled in his second year in the Bronx, so interested teams may be able to land him for pennies on the dollar. The 28-year-old left-handed slugger has cratered to the tune of a .159/.282/.339 slash line, 12 home runs, 24 RBI, 32 runs scored and two stolen bases in 273 plate appearances over 82 games. A change of scenery could get him going again, and it appears that the two-time All-Star will be on the move this summer.

The New York Yankees and Milwaukee Brewers have discussed outfielder Joey Gallo, who may fit Milwaukee much better than New York City. The Brewers were in on outfielder Andrew Benintendi before the Royals dealt him to the Yankees, and they could use another outfielder. USA TODAY's Bob Nightengale mentioned the Minnesota Twins and Tampa Bay Rays as other possibilities to trade for Gallo before Tuesday's deadline. The 28-year-old left-handed slugger has been an absolute failure in his second season in the Bronx, hitting .159/.282/.339 with 12 home runs, 24 RBI, 32 runs scored, two stolen bases and 106 strikeouts in 273 plate appearances, but perhaps a change of scenery would get him going again.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo is likely to be on the move within the next few days. The front office is looking to trade Gallo who has heavily struggled this season. At first, the Yankees were talking to teams such as the San Diego Padres and Texas Rangers. Now, they've decided to target smaller market teams such as the Brewers or Rays. It's going to be a tough challenge for the Yankees to move a guy hitting less than .160 on the season. The hope is that Gallo would play better in an environment with less pressure such as Tampa Bay or Milwaukee. That could be true, but first the Yankees need to find a team that actually is willing to take Gallo.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo will likely be wearing a new jersey at this time next week -- so long as the team can find a suitor for him. According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the Yankees are actively shopping Gallo, but they are having trouble finding a trade partner who will agree to send back the "type of prospect they seek." Heyman stated that both the San Diego Padres and Texas Rangers have expressed interest in Gallo, but both are -- understandably -- much more engaged in Juan Soto trade talks at the moment. It's been a nightmare season for Gallo thus far. Across 80 games, he's slashed just .161/.285/.343 with 12 home runs.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo launched a pair of homers on Thursday to help his team defeat the Twins in a 10-7 slug fest. Both of his shots came off starter Dylan Bundy with a 380' blast coming in the second inning and a 427' no-doubter that followed in the fifth. Gallo finished the day going 2-for-5 with three RBI and three strikeouts as he now sits with a .193/.291/.372 slash line through 47 games played. Strikeouts continue to haunt the 28-year-old as he sits with 64 punchouts and a league-worst 38.8% K-rate that is severely outweighing his eight round-trippers and 13 RBI on the season. Gallo could heat up in the middle part of the year, but don't expect a high batting average since he's not showing signs of improving his swing-and-miss ability.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo is not included in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Chris Archer and the Minnesota Twins. Aaron Judge, Aaron Hicks and Giancarlo Stanton will be covering the outfield for the game. Gallo has been slowly seeing his playing time disappear due to his inability to settle in at the plate this year. Over 46 games, he's slashing just .186/.288/.329 with six home runs, 10 RBI and 15 runs. He has a career-low average exit velocity of 88.2 mph, down from 91.5 mph last year. Strikeouts have always been an issue for him, but he's especially struggled with them this year as his 38.1% strikeout rate ranks in the bottom 1% of the league.

The New York Yankees activated outfielder Joey Gallo from the COVID-19 list on Wednesday. Giancarlo Stanton (calf) heads to the injured list in a corresponding move. Gallo batted sixth and went 0-for-3 in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Baltimore Orioles. The 28-year-old has struggled in 2022, slashing .171/.287/.324 with five home runs, seven RBI, and 11 runs scored over 36 games in 2022. Fantasy managers should continue to roster Gallo as the slugger has elite power after mashing 38 homers for the Yankees in 2021.

The New York Yankees placed outfielder Joey Gallo and catcher Kyle Higashioka on the COVID-19 injured list prior to Game 1 of the team's doubleheader against the Chicago White Sox on Sunday. In corresponding moves, the team called up relief pitcher David McKay from Triple-A and signed catcher Rob Brantly to a major league contract, selecting him to the team's 26-man roster. It's unclear how long both players will be out, but we could see Marwin Gonzalez benefit from Gallo's absence, while Jose Trevino will serve as the team's starting catcher.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox. This is not shocking considering left-hander Dallas Keuchel is pitching for the South Siders. Gallo has been off to a rough start to the season, so he could use a day off. Aaron Hicks will bat ninth and play left field on Saturday. Fantasy managers should expect more of this whenever the Yankees face a left-handed starter.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Baltimore Orioles and left-hander Bruce Zimmermann. Gallo is off to a slow start at the plate in his second season with the Yanks, hitting .176/.288/.333 with five home runs, seven RBI, 11 runs scored and 45 strikeouts in 118 plate appearances. As always, he has elite power, but he swings and misses far too often. Marwin Gonzalez will draw into the lineup in left field and hit ninth on Thursday against Zimmermann. The switch-hitter has gone 6-for-27 in his first 16 games with no home runs and three RBI, making him a low-upside, low-cost DFS play in the nine-hole for the Yanks.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against left-hander Yusei Kikuchi and the Toronto Blue Jays. Aaron Hicks will be patrolling left field for the game. Gallo was one of only a few Yankees to reach base multiple times in the team's 1-0 win over his former team, the Texas Rangers, on Monday. He went 1-for-2 with a walk in the contest. It's been a rough year so far for the 28-year-old, who is slashing .183/.284/.324 with three home runs over 25 games. He'll need to turn things around soon to avoid being a regular fixture on the bench.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (groin) will be back on the field following a three-game absence on Wednesday when the team takes on Yusei Kikuchi and the Toronto Blue Jays. He'll be covering left field and batting seventh in the game. Gallo was sidelined due to groin tightness. The 28-year-old slugger has only mustered two home runs over 21 games this year. He's slashing just .180/.275/.295 on the young season. We'll see if he can start turning things around on Wednesday.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (groin) will miss his third straight game on Tuesday due to groin tightness. Marwin Gonzalez will be entering the starting lineup for the game, covering left field and batting seventh. Gallo is off to a rough start to the year as he has just three extra-base hits (one home run, two doubles) over 69 plate appearances. He's slashing .180/.275/.295 on the young season. Prior to Monday's game, Yankees manager Aaron Boone stated that Gallo could have been a pinch-hitting option in the game, so it certainly seems as if Gallo is close to making a return.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (groin) is not in the starting lineup for the second straight game on Monday as the team takes on the Toronto Blue Jays. Aaron Hicks, Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton will be covering the outfield for the game. Gallo is dealing with left groin tightness, an injury that first flared up on Saturday. However, Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters that Gallo is improving and that he could be available as a pinch-hitter if he gets through pregame warmups fine.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (groin) is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Kansas City Royals. Gallo said he wasn't concerned at all about the left groin injury that caused him to leave Saturday's game in the fifth inning, but he's out of the lineup for the series finale on Sunday against southpaw Daniel Lynch. The 28-year-old left-hander should be back in the team's lineup for their next game, and he could even enter the game as a pinch-hitter on Sunday. Gallo has two home runs in his first 21 games, but he's only driven in three runs, has struck out 29 times and is hitting .180 (11-for-61). Miguel Andujar is in left field and is hitting seventh on Sunday against Lynch. Andujar has just one at-bat for the Yanks this year after starting the year in the minors.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (groin) is "not concerned at all" about the groin issue that caused him to leave Saturday's game against the Kansas City Royals. He left Saturday's contest early with left groin tightness. "I'm not concerned at all," Gallo said, adding that he left the game "just as a precaution." "We'll see how he's doing Sunday morning," said Yankees manager Aaron Boone. "I think we'll know a lot more in the morning." The 28-year-old underwent additional testing, but nothing was mentioned about the results. "I think I'll be fine," Gallo said. "I'll be ready to go (Sunday) if the team needs me. I wanted to keep playing (Saturday), but the smart move was not to make it worse." Gallo is day-to-day for now, but fantasy managers should continue to monitor the situation and check back on Sunday to see if the Yankees outfielder is in the starting lineup. Tim Locastro replaced Gallo in the game and would see an uptick in playing time while Gallo is sidelined. Locastro can be used as a streamer in deep-league formats for Sunday's slate if Gallo is out of the lineup.

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (groin) exited Saturday's game with left groin tightness. He went 2-for-2 with a run scored before leaving. The 28-year-old will undergo additional testing after the game and is considered day-to-day. Gallo is off to a slow start to the season, slashing .153/.254/.271 with two home runs and three RBI over 20 games in 2022. Tim Locastro replaced Gallo in the game and would see an uptick in playing time while Gallo is sidelined. Locastro is primarily used as a pinch-runner this season and swiped three bags over 10 games in 2022. The 29-year-old would be a speculative add in deep-league formats if Gallo were to miss time, especially for fantasy managers searching for speed. Stay tuned for further updates.
