Josh Jung Slides Over To Designated Hitter

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (finger) will move over from the hot corner to designated hitter ahead of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. Rangers' manager Bruce Bochy told reporters that Jung is having issues throwing the ball right now due to a cut on his finger. That being said, Ezequiel Duran will play […]

Daulton Varsho, Spencer Horwitz Sitting Versus Southpaw

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho and first baseman Spencer Horwitz will head to the bench ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Fantasy managers don't need to worry about an injury as these moves appear to be matchup related. Varsho has a nine-game hit streak that will be held on hold unless […]

Anthony Rendon Taking A Seat On Sunday

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. The oft-injured infielder appears to be getting a routine rest day here. Rendon is having a down year at the plate, but he does have two hits in his last three games. The […]

Frank Gore Jr. Getting X-Rays

Buffalo Bills running back Frank Gore Jr. (knee) is scheduled to undergo X-rays after suffering an injury during Saturday's preseason finale. This is a shame considering how well Gore has been playing in the preseason. He rushed for 101 yards on 18 carries with one touchdown before exiting on Saturday. He's competing with Ray Davis […]

Eddy Pineiro Expected To Be Fine

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) didn't return for the second half of Saturday's preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills. Pineiro was forced to exit the game due to mild hamstring soreness. Head coach Dave Canales said afterwards that Pineiro is fine and the team held him out for precautionary reasons. Before exiting, Pineiro made […]

Craig Reynolds Should Be Ready For Season Opener

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (leg) is expected to be available for the regular season opener, according to head coach Dan Campbell. Reynolds suffered a leg injury during Thursday's practice. It's not believed to be serious, but Reynolds was held out of the preseason finale for precautionary reasons. He's currently competing with Sione Vaki […]

Stetson Bennett To Serve As Backup

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Stetson Bennett will serve as the backup for Week 1 and Week 2 of the regular season. This was expected to happen with Jimmy Garoppolo suspended for the first two weeks of the season. Bennett sat out of the preseason finale after starting the first two games. He threw for 437 […]

Owen Wright Carted Off The Field

Baltimore Ravens running back Owen Wright (foot) was carted off the field during Saturday's preseason finale against the Green Bay Packers. It has been announced that Wright broke his foot during the second quarter of this contest. This is a shame considering Wright was the favorite for the third string spot in the Ravens backfield. […]

Rachaad White Scores On Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White got into some game action during Friday's preseason finale against the Miami Dolphins. White rushed four times for 16 yards and scored a touchdown in the win. He also hauled in his lone target for 17 yards through the air as he played all the first-team snaps during […]

Cody Thompson Snags Seven Receptions

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Cody Thompson has put together strong performances over the last two preseason contests. Thompson hauled in five receptions last week and he was able to top that on Friday. The 28-year-old hauled in seven of his eight targets for 45 yards in the win over the Miami Dolphins. Sadly for […]

Bucky Irving Gets Involved On Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving was once again heavily involved in the offense during Friday's preseason finale against the Miami Dolphins. The rookie back saw six carries for 26 yards while hauling in his lone target for five yards in the win. Irving has been competing with Sean Tucker for the backup role […]

Jalen McMillan Catches Lone Target

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan has made a strong case for the No. 3 role on this offense. The rookie wideout has been battling with Trey Palmer for the third wideout spot behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. McMillan was on the field for all the first-team snaps during Friday's preseason finale against […]

Miguel Rojas Returns To The Lineup

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Miguel Rojas (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The veteran infielder is making his return after being scratched from Wednesday's game due to a left hamstring issue. The 35-year-old will cover shortstop and bat seventh versus left-hander Tyler Alexander on Friday. […]

Jordan Montgomery Headed To Bullpen

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery will shift to the bullpen going forward. The D-Backs made Montgomery the odd man out with six healthy starters right now. The left-hander has been awful to the tune of a 6.44 ERA with a 67/36 K/BB ratio across 19 starts this season. Before this season, Montgomery had a […]

Max Muncy Taking A Seat Versus Southpaw

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. It's uncertain if Muncy is sitting because of a left-hander being on the mound or if this is a routine rest day. Obviously, Muncy will have limited fantasy value if he continues to […]

Victor Robles Remains Out On Friday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (hip) remains absent from the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Robles continues to sit out after exiting early from Tuesday's contest. The 27-year-old crashed into the center field wall and was forced to exit that contest. The organization continues to consider Robles as day-to-day, […]

Yordan Alvarez Pulled From Friday's Lineup

Houston Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (neck) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Alvarez is dealing with neck discomfort, so it sounds like a day-to-day type of issue. Fantasy managers should make sure to check their lineups and get Alvarez out on Friday. Alex Bregman will […]

Tyler O'Neill Scratched On Friday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (finger) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The organization said that O'Neill was pulled from the lineup due to finger inflammation. It sounds like a minor issue, so fantasy managers should consider O'Neill as day-to-day. In his place, Rob Refsnyder […]

DJ Chark Misses Thursday's Practice

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver DJ Chark (undisclosed) remained on the sideline during Thursday's practice. The veteran wideout was banged up during Monday's practice. Chark has been on the sideline since then as he continues to nurse what is believed to be a hip injury. However, the Chargers haven't commented much on Chark or the […]

Isiah Pacheco Expected To Sit During Preseason Finale

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco is unlikely to play during Thursday's preseason finale against the Chicago Bears. Fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned as the Chiefs are expected to bench most of their offensive starters. Pacheco is undoubtedly the lead back in Kansas City after having back-to-back strong campaigns to begin his career. That […]

Noah Fant Likely To Be Ready For Week 1

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant is expected to be ready to play in the Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Fant is working his way back from an undisclosed injury and hasn't been on the practice field for a few days. Head coach Mike Macdonald doesn't appear concerned about this being a long […]

Logan Thomas Re-Signs With 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers have decided to bring back tight end Logan Thomas on Thursday. The veteran tight end was cut by the organization two weeks ago. Thomas was dealing with an injury in camp, but he appears to be healthy now. The 33-year-old should be a decent option alongside George Kittle at the tight […]

Wyatt Langford Comes Up With Clutch Hit

Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford came up clutch for his team during Wednesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The rookie outfielder smacked a line-drive walk-off single against right-hander David Bedner to break the scoreless tie. Langford also singled and stolen a base earlier in the contest. The 22-year-old was slow out of the gate, but […]

Francisco Lindor Connects On 25th Homer

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor continued his hot second half of the season during Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The 30-year-old went deep in the third inning off southpaw Cole Irvin for his 25th home run of the season. Lindor has now hit 25 long balls or more in six of the last […]

Alex Bregman Goes Yard In Return

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman made his return to the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Boston Red Sox. Bregman showed no signs of rust following a five-game absence due to elbow inflammation. He made some noise early on by taking starting pitcher Cooper Criswell deep in the first inning. It was his lone […]

Justin Verlander Looks Sharp In Return

Houston Astros starting pitcher Justin Verlander made his return to the mound against the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday. The 41-year-old looked sharp on the mound considering he has been sidelined the last two and a half months due to a neck issue. Verlander struck out six batters while allowing four hits and two runs […]

Jesse Winker Comes Up Clutch

New York Mets outfielder Jesse Winker was called upon to come off the bench in the ninth inning of Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The 30-year-old delivered for his team as Winker blasted a pinch-hit game-winning solo home run off right-hander Seranthony Dominguez. This blasted marked Winker's 12th homer of the season and his […]

Javier Baez Takes A Seat On Wednesday

Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Baez is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago Cubs. The 31-year-old made his return to Wrigley Field on Tuesday. The fans gave Baez a warm welcome, but that didn't help him as he went hitless with four strikeouts. That performance should shock no one considering […]

Ha-Seong Kim Heads To Injured List

San Diego Padres shortstop Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Aug. 19. There is some good news, though, as Padres manager Mike Shildt said Kim isn't likely to require much longer than a minimum stay on the injured list. Kim injured his right shoulder while diving back to […]

Ranger Suarez To Start On Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Ranger Suarez (back) is scheduled to come off the injured list on Saturday. The left-hander will take the ball against the Kansas City Royals after missing a few weeks due to lower-back soreness. The 28-year-old is in the middle of a breakout campaign, so his return is a welcomed sight for […]
