Chris Olson highlights MLB injury news and lineup updates for daily fantasy baseball cash games and GPPs on DraftKings and FanDuel for 4/28/16. Make sure to check out these updates before setting your DFS lineups.

DFS players looking for a stack may want to grab lefties against Rubby De La Rosa. The 27-year-old has been hammered by southpaws his entire career, and has opened 2016 by allowing a .375 wOBA against his opposite hand.

Those looking for a safe value play/SP2 option on this short and (potentially) rainy day could try Clay Buchholz. The Braves entered play Wednesday as a bottom-5 team against right-handed pitching, and ranked as the worst team in the league on the road.

In this article, we’ll be providing you with critical lineup updates and injury news for MLB games on 4/28/16. We’ll try to update this article up until games so you have the latest information to set your daily fantasy baseball lineups on FanDuel and DraftKings.

MLB Injury Updates for 4/28/16

Miguel Montero was scheduled to miss his second consecutive game as a result of back stiffness Wednesday before the contest against the Brewers was rained out. David Ross will likely reprise his role behind the plate if Montero is unable to play Thursday. UPDATE: Montero placed on DL. Ross will likely start at catcher for the foreseeable future.

Scooter Gennett missed his second game in a row Wednesday due to an oblique injury. Look for Yadiel Rivera to continue to start for as long as he is sidelined. UPDATE: Gennett placed on the DL. Rivera will start in his absence.

Kolten Wong missed his second straight game Wednesday against the Diamondbacks. Jedd Gyorko is likely to start again Thursday if Wong needs more time to recover.
