TYLER WADE NEWS

Steals base Sunday Wade went 0-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 11-10 loss to the Blue Jays.

Impact Wade is now 5-for-8 in stolen base attempts this season after swiping a bag in the fourth inning before scoring on a Taylor Ward homer. The 27-year-old Wade has added a .229/.288/.302 slash line with one home run, seven RBI, 14 runs scored and four doubles through 109 plate appearances. He'll likely absorb some of the playing time at third base, primarily against right-handed pitchers, while Anthony Rendon (wrist) is on the injured list.

Impact Wade knocked in a run with a fourth-inning bunt single, and he subsequently stole second base. The theft was his first since May 4, a stretch of 16 games. He didn't get on base much during that span, going 6-for-37 with two walks and 11 strikeouts.

Sitting versus lefty Wade is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact The lefty-hitting Wade will duck out of the starting nine while southpaw Shane McClanahan takes the bump for Tampa Bay in the series finale. Luis Rengifo will pick up the start at the keystone and could continue to occupy the short side of a platoon with Wade for the foreseeable future.

MAY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out of Tuesday's lineup Wade is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact The 27-year-old started three of the past four games but will take a seat with Luis Rengifo starting at the keystone. Despite not starting Tuesday, Wade should continue to see plenty of action at second base with David Fletcher (hip) out for the foreseeable future.

MAY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting role reopens Wade will start at second base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact Wade had moved into more of a part-time role after David Fletcher was reinstated from the injured list April 29, but Fletcher stayed healthy for just over a week before moving back to the IL on Sunday with a left hip strain. Fletcher will meet with a specialist in the coming days and could be headed for surgery, so the lefty-hitting Wade looks like he'll be in line to reclaim at least a large-side platoon role at second base. Over his 62 plate appearances on the season, Wade has delivered most of his fantasy value in the form of a .278 average and three stolen bases.

Sitting Saturday Wade will sit Saturday against the Nationals, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Losing work since Fletcher's return Wade is on the bench for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact The lefty-hitting Wade will take a seat against a right-hander (Michael Wacha), which is yet another indication that he'll be the odd man out of the Angels' middle infield more often than not following David Fletcher's recent return from the injured list. Since Fletcher was activated Friday, he's started in four of the Halos' five games, while Andrew Velasquez and Wade have started three and two times, respectively.

MAY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Notches third steal Wade went 0-for-2 with a stolen base in Monday's loss to the White Sox.

Impact The Angels' offense was almost entirely stifled in the contest, as a trio of White Sox pitchers allowed just three baserunners. Wade was one of those thanks to a sixth-inning hit-by-pitch, and he reached second base on a steal but was ultimately stranded there. The speedy utilityman is up to three thefts on the season and is slashing .286/.340/.347 through 56 plate appearances.

MAY 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Benched for second time in series Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Impact With David Fletcher making his return from the injured list Friday, Wade and Andrew Velazquez look as though they'll be forced to compete for the remaining spot in the middle infield in the Angels' everyday lineup. Wade will sit for the second time in the three games since Fletcher's return while Velazquez stays in the lineup at shortstop.

Not starting Tuesday Wade will be on the bench for Tuesday's game against Houston, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
