Newsbreakers
October 5, 2008
The Boston Globe points out that Joey Gathright had only three doubles in 279 at-bats in 2008.

Our View:Gathright is a slap hitter, but his 2008 season was a bit extreme with a pitiful .272 slugging percentage. Despite his great speed and defense, Gathright could have a tough time sticking around in the majors if he continues to hit so poorly.
August 21, 2008
Joey Gathright has been activated from the 15-day DL following his bout with a bruised right shoulder, according to the AP. Mitch Maier has been placed on the 15-day DL as the corresponding move.

Our View:Fantasy owners with Gathright will get speed back to their lineups, as he registered 21 stolen bases this season.
August 2, 2008
Royals outfielder Joey Gathright started to throw and in a few days he will begin hitting, according to the Kansas City Star.

Our View:Gathright is a good option for fantasy players needing stolen bases, but only if you can live with that .302 on-base percentage. But if you are in a league that uses slugging percentage, he probably isn't worth the trouble. Among his 62 hits, just three have gone for extra bases.
July 24, 2008
Joey Gathright has been placed on the 15-day DL due to a bone bruise in his right shoulder, according to the AP. Outfielder Mitch Maier was called up from Triple-A Omaha as the adjoining move.

Our View:Gathright was merely a serviceable AL-only outfielder as he hit .251 with no homers and 17 RBI over 247 at-bats. He held his most value with 21 stolen bases.
July 6, 2008
Joey Gathright went 1-for-2 with a walk and a steal on Saturday, according to the Kansas City Star.

Our View:He missed the previous two games due to a sore left shoulder, but is seemingly safe to consider for AL-only league lineups again.
