Eric Lauer Makes Spring Debut

Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Eric Lauer made his spring debut against the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday. The veteran southpaw looked strong as he struck out three batters over two scoreless innings. The 28-year-old has been a reliable option throughout most of his career. However, Lauer struggled heavily during his time with the Milwaukee Brewers last […]

Clarke Schmidt Looks Strong On Monday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Clarke Schmidt was impressive during his outing against the New York Mets on Monday. Coming into camp there were some concerns if Schmidt would be able to keep up the high level of pitching that he showed last season. The right-hander has proven himself in camp and earned himself the […]

Gregory Rousseau Likely To Have Fifth-Year Option Exercised

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane recently said that the organization is likely to exercise the fifth-year option on defensive end Gregory Rousseau. This seems like a no-brainer for the Bills as Rousseau has been successful each of his first three seasons. He has totaled 129 tackles and 17 sacks in three seasons with the […]

Micah Hyde Could Return To Bills

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane recently said that the organization is open to bringing back safety Micah Hyde. The 33-year-old is currently a free agent but has spent the last seven seasons in Buffalo. Last season, Hyde recorded 54 tackles and two interceptions while earning a PFF coverage grade of 67.2. He's not in […]

Aidan O'Connell Has Chance To Earn Starting Gig

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell has earned a chance to compete for the starting job, according to head coach Antonio Pierce. As of right now, O'Connell and Gardner Minshew are expected to compete for the starting job next season. However, the Raiders may add another quarterback to the mix during the draft. Last season, […]

Jacoby Brissett Could Start Next Season

New England Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett could absolutely be the team's starting QB next season, according to head coach Jerod Mayo. The Patriots don't have much to offer in the quarterback department right now, which gives Brissett a strong chance. Brissett began his career with the Patriots after being taken by them in the 3rd […]

The Minnesota Twins were reportedly in agreement with relief pitcher Jesse Chavez earlier on Sunday. However, the two sides have not officially agreed on a deal.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow will take the ball during the team's home opener versus the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday. The right-hander made his Dodgers' debut versus the San Diego Padres on Wednesday. Glasnow allowed two runs, two hits, and walked four batters in a no-decision. It appears the plan is for […]

Bradley Zimmer Released By Rockies

Colorado Rockies outfielder Bradley Zimmer has been released by the organization on Sunday. This move is unsurprising after the Rockies acquired outfielder Jake Cave this weekend. There was no more room for Zimmer on the roster despite his solid play this spring. Zimmer was hitting .378 with one home run, four RBI, and four stolen […]

DJ LeMahieu A Longshot For Opening Day

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (foot) is reportedly a longshot to be ready in time for Opening Day, according to manager Aaron Boone. It sounds like the veteran infielder has not progressed as quickly as the organization hoped. The 35-year-old continues to deal with a bone bruise in his right foot that could linger […]

Ezequiel Tovar Signs Massive Extension

Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar has reportedly signed a long-term extension with the organization on Sunday. It's a seven-year deal with a club option for the 2031 season. Tovar could earn up to $84 million if the team does exercise his option. The young infielder was fairly productive through his first big league season. Tovar […]

Luis Gil Secures Rotation Spot

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Gil has earned himself a spot in the starting rotation. The right-hander has been named the team's fifth starter on Sunday. This spring, Gil has posted a 2.87 ERA, 0.83 WHIP, and 23/6 K/BB ratio across 15 2/3 innings (three starts). The loss of Gerrit Cole (elbow) gave Gil […]

LeBron James Might Miss Sunday's Game

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar forward has been dealing with an ankle issue for what seems like months now. However, James normally plays through the issue, but fantasy managers should check back for another update ahead of tip-off. His […]

Anfernee Simons To Undergo MRI

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (knee) is scheduled to undergo an MRI this weekend, according to head coach Chauncey Billups. This news comes after Simons was forced to exit early during Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He'll sit out of Saturday's contest versus the Denver Nuggets. The assumption is that Simons will […]

Matisse Thybulle Sitting Out On Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This was expected as Thybulle has already missed multiple games due to an ankle issue. The Blazers are banged up right now, so Kris Murray will likely start in place of Thybulle on Saturday. Last game, […]

Jerami Grant Downgraded To Out

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been downgraded to out ahead of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This isn't shocking as Grant has already missed multiple games due to this hamstring issue. Given the Blazers place in the standings, it's unlikely that they will rush Grant back on the court. Toumani Camara […]

Deandre Ayton Remains Out On Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The big man continues to miss time due to a left elbow issue. The assumption is that Duop Reath will move into the starting five on Saturday. He finished with 13 points, three rebounds, and two […]

Matisse Thybulle Unavailable On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This doesn't come as much of a surprise given the Blazers place in the standings. They will likely continue to rest their players at anything less than 100 percent. Kris Murray will move into the […]

Jerami Grant Won't Play Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Grant continues to miss time due to a lingering hamstring issue. At this point, the Blazers don't have much incentive to play anyone at less than 100 percent health. In his absence, Toumani Camara will […]

Deandre Ayton Unavailable For Friday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The oft-injured big man will sit this one out as he continues to recover from left elbow tendinitis. His absence should mean that Duop Reath will move into the starting unit. As a starter, Reath […]

Zach Collins To Play On Friday

San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (concussion) has been cleared to play ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Collins will make his return to the court after a one-game absence due to a concussion. His return will likely push Dominick Barlow out of the rotation. Collins will fill out the backup center minutes […]

Anthony Edwards Will Play Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (finger) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is good news for the T-Wolves as Edwards was uncertain coming into this game due to a dislocated finger. The expectation is that Edwards is going to play his normal role in the rotation. Fantasy managers can feel […]

Caleb Martin Cleared On Friday

Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (ankle) has been cleared to play ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was a late addition to the injury report but appears to be fine now. Martin has been playing over 30 minutes per game with the Heat shorthanded right now. The expectation is that trend […]

Rudy Gobert Upgraded To Available

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (rib) has been upgraded to available ahead of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The big man is back in action after going through his pregame routine without any issues. Fellow big man Naz Reid (head) has also been cleared to play in this game. That being said, both players […]

Lars Nootbaar Won't Be Ready For Opening Day

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Lars Nootbaar (ribs) is going to open the regular season on the injured list. This was expected, but Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol confirmed the news on Friday. The left-handed slugger continues working his way back from fractures in his ribcage. At the moment, it looks like Alec Burleson is the favorite […]

Sonny Gray To Open Season On Injured List

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Sonny Gray (hamstring) won't be ready in time for Opening Day. Cards manager Oliver Marmol confirmed on Friday that Gray will open the season on the injured list. The plan is for Gray to take the mound on Saturday in a spring contest. After that, Gray will make a pair […]

Justin Steele Exits Early On Friday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Justin Steele (leg) was forced to exit early during Friday's Cactus League matchup against the San Francisco Giants. The left-hander was lifted after being struck by a ball on the lower left leg. He remained on the ground while grabbing his knee until eventually exiting the contest. This is not good […]

Dylan Crews Reassigned To Minors Camp

Washington Nationals outfielder Dylan Crews has been sent to minor league camp on Friday. This was expected as the 22-year-old still has work to do in the minors. Crews was selected second overall by the Nats during the 2023 MLB Draft. He struggled this spring, hitting .161 with one home run and five RBI in […]

James Wood Optioned To Minors

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood has been reassigned to minor league camp on Friday. He'll be joined by fellow top prospects Dylan Crews and Robert Hassell III as the Nats continue to shrink their roster. There was a low chance that Wood was going to make the team as he's only played as high as […]
