Lands on COVID IL
The Nationals placed Mercer on the COVID-19 injured list Tuesday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.
Impact
Mercer is one of nine Nationals players on the 40-man roster who will begin the campaign on the IL as a result of the team's recent COVID-19 outbreak. Prior reports have suggested that only four of the players in question have been confirmed to have tested positive for the virus, but it's uncertain whether Mercer is one of the infected players or if he was merely a close contact. Jon Heyman of MLB Network, players that tested positive will be eligible to return after 10 days in quarantine, while those ruled out through contact tracing can return after a week. Mercer had been projected to begin the season as a utility infielder for Washington, but his absence likely paves the way for Luis Garcia or Carter Kieboom to handle those duties.

Designated for assignment
Mercer was designated for assignment by the Yankees on Tuesday.
Impact
Mercer had previously been designated for assignment by the Tigers back in early August before joining the Yankees on a minor-league deal. Between the two teams, the veteran has managed just four hits in nine games this season.

Third straight start
Mercer will start at shortstop and will bat eighth Sunday in the first game of the Yankees' doubleheader with the Mets.
Impact
Now starting for the third game in a row, Mercer looks like he may have supplanted Tyler Wade as the primary option at shortstop while Gleyber Torres (hamstring) is sidelined. Mercer offers a reliable glove in the middle infield, but the career .257/.315/.387 hitter doesn't have much fantasy upside.

Impact
