Paul Skenes Looks Untouchable On Friday

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Paul Skenes made his second career start against the Chicago Cubs. His debut last week was a bit underwhelming, but Skenes made easy work of the Cubs lineup this time around. The right-hander struck out the first six batters he faced to begin the game. Skenes would punch out a total […]

Coby Mayo Fractures His Rib, To Miss Several Weeks

Baltimore Orioles third base prospect Coby Mayo (ribs) is expected to miss multiple weeks of action. The organization announced that Mayo has suffered a fractured rib when he crashed into the dugout during Thursday's game.

Miguel Vargas To Be Recalled

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Miguel Vargas is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City. The 24-year-old is hitting the cover off the ball in the minors.

The 25-year-old recorded nine strikeouts, allowing two hits, and only one run in a no-decision. The only damage was a solo shot by Santiago Espinal in the fifth inning.

Rutschman continues […]

Bryan De La Cruz Blasts Homer In Win

Miami Marlins outfielder Bryan De La Cruz has been one of the few bright spots for this team early in the season. On Wednesday, De La Cruz blasted a two-run home run off right-hander Casey Mize during the opening frame. The homer from De La Cruz was enough for the Marlins as they won the […]

Trevor Rogers Tosses Five Scoreless Innings

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Trevor Rogers posted a solid outing during Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. The southpaw threw five shutout innings, allowing three hits, and a pair of walks in the win.

Bryan Ramos Removed Early On Tuesday

Chicago White Sox third baseman Bryan Ramos (quad) was removed early during Tuesday's game against the Washington Nationals. This is a shame considering Ramos has been one of the few bright spots for this team lately. The 22-year-old was pulled out of the contest mid-way due to left quad tightness. The White Sox are already […]

Pete Fairbanks Available On Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays closer Pete Fairbanks (finger) is available ahead of Tuesday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The right-hander was unable to pitch on Monday due to a cut on his finger. It sounds like this is no longer an issue, so Fairbanks is good to go now. Jason Adam converted the save on […]

Patrick Bailey Remains Out On Tuesday

San Francisco Giants catcher Patrick Bailey (illness) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. This isn't shocking considering Bailey recently headed for further evaluation to determine the severity of his illness. It could be related to a concussion that Bailey suffered earlier in the month. Fantasy managers […]

Rhys Hoskins Lands On Injured List

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday.

That was not the case as the team placed him on the injured list shortly after releasing […]

Jorge Polanco Absent On Tuesday

Seattle Mariners second baseman Jorge Polanco (hamstring) is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Kansas City Royals.

Blue Jays And Orioles Postponed

The game between the Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles has been postponed on Tuesday. This seems odd considering that was only light rain in the forecast, but they've decided to call the game.

White Sox And Nationals Postponed

The game between the Chicago White Sox and Washington Nationals has been postponed on Monday.

Adbert Alzolay Placed On Injured List

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Adbert Alzolay (forearm) has been placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday.

TJ Friedl Lands On Injured List

Cincinnati Reds outfielder TJ Friedl (thumb) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Monday. Friedl underwent X-rays on Sunday, but they came back negative. Clearly, that wasn't the case as Friedl is set to miss time due to a fractured left field. This is a tough blow considering Friedl just returned from a […]

Pete Crow-Armstrong Remains On The Bench

Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong (rest) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Atlanta Braves.

Shohei Ohtani Returning On Monday

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (back) is returning to the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the San Diego Padres. Ohtani was removed early during Saturday's contest due to back tightness. He didn't play on Sunday but that was likely precautionary to give Ohtani a day off to rest. He'll return to […]

Jesse Winker Won't Play On Monday

Washington Nationals outfielder Jesse Winker (back) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The veteran outfielder was forced to exit early during Sunday's game due to back spasms. Winker is reportedly feeling better on Monday but will sit out at least one more game. Winker holds a […]

Austin Riley Removed From Sunday's Game

Atlanta Braves third baseman Austin Riley (back) was removed during Sunday's game against the New York Mets. The slugging infielder appears to have injured himself during a swing in the third inning.

Kaden Davis Heading To Lions

The Detroit Lions have signed wide receiver Kaden Davis to a one-year deal on Sunday. The 25-year-old was waived by the Arizona Cardinals in April.

Ramon Jefferson Inks Deal With Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed undrafted free agent running back Ramon Jefferson on Sunday. Jefferson was one of 26 players that the Bucs brought in for tryouts over the weekend.

Lucas Patrick Signing With Saints

The New Orleans Saints have signed free-agent guard Lucas Patrick on Sunday. The seven-year guard has spent each of the last two seasons with the Chicago Bears.

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher James McArthur was called upon to hold a three-run lead versus the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday.

Jung Hoo Lee Removed From Sunday's Game

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (shoulder) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Reds.

The organization is going to further exanimate Lee to determine the severity of the injury. The […]

Paul Goldschmidt Snaps Hitting Skid

St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt has been flat-out awful to start the month of May. The veteran slugger entered Sunday's game 1-for-32 with 14 strikeouts. Luckily, was able to do some damage against the Milwaukee Brewers. Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in the victory. This will raise his […]

Seth Lugo Racks Up 12 Strikeouts

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Seth Lugo was excellent on the mound during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The right-hander has been outstanding lately and his success continued here. Lugo coasted through eight innings, allowing one run, and racked up a career-high 12 strikeouts.
