Tim Anderson Scratched On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (neck) has been scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the Kansas City Royals. The 30-year-old will sit this game out due to neck stiffness. That being said, fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried about Anderson missing much time. He should be considered as day-to-day for the moment. Elvis Andrus […]

Cedric Mullins Remains Out On Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins remains out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The 28-year-old will miss his second game in a row with the O's facing back-to-back left-handed starters. The O's will deploy Austin Hays, Aaron Hicks, and Anthony Santander will the outfield versus lefty Patrick Sandoval on […]

Chas McCormick Heads To The Bench

Houston Astros outfielder Chas McCormick is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers. This is odd timing considering McCormick has been red-hot at the plate recently. The 28-year-old currently holds a seven-game hitting streak where he's gone 11-for-21 at the plate during that time. The assumption is that he'll return […]

James Paxton To Have Start Pushed Back

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher James Paxton will receive extended rest before making his next start on Tuesday versus the New York Yankees. The left-hander has allowed 16 runs over his last three starts. That being said, the team will skip his turn in the rotation to allow Paxton to have more rest. The 34-year-old […]

Corbin Carroll Removed Early On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (wrist) was removed early during Wednesday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The 23-year-old was pulled from the contest after being hit by a pitch in the wrist on Wednesday. The team is calling the injury a wrist contusion, so it could've been worse. It appears Carroll has avoided serious injury, […]

J.T. Realmuto Absent On Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. This appears to be a regular rest day for the superstar catcher. Realmuto has started in four straight games, so he could use a day off to rest. In his absence, Garrett Stubbs will start behind […]

Cedric Mullins To Sit Out On Tuesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. This appears to be nothing more than a routine day off for the 28-year-old outfielder. The O's will play the matchup game here with left-hander Reid Detmers on the mound for the Halos. Ryan McKenna will […]

Luis Campusano Returns To The Lineup

San Diego Padres catcher Luis Campusano (groin) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 24-year-old was hit in the groin by a foul ball during Sunday's game. As a result, Campusano wasn't in Monday's starting lineup, but did appear as a pinch hitter. He'll bat sixth and serve […]

Shohei Ohtani To Miss Tuesday's Game

Los Angeles Angels two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani (elbow, oblique) is out of Tuesday's starting lineup against the Baltimore Orioles. This doesn't come as much of a surprise considering Ohtani is battling two injuries right now. The good news is that Angels' manager Phil Nevin said Ohtani is feeling improved. Fantasy managers can consider Ohtani as […]

Hunter Renfroe Scratched On Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Hunter Renfroe (hamstring) has been scratched ahead of Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The 31-year-old slugger was pulled from the lineup due to left hamstring tightness. The organization believes the injury is day-to-day, so Renfroe shouldn't require a trip to the injured list. In his absence, Harrison Bader will cover center […]

Trea Turner Placed On Paternity List

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner has been placed on the paternity list on Tuesday. The 30-year-old will be away from the team for a few days due to the birth of his child. The team will certainly miss his bat as Turner has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball lately. The slugging infielder […]

JaVale McGee Does Not Have Guaranteed Roster Spot

The Sacramento Kings recently signed center JaVale McGee to a one-year deal. It was reported that the deal was a one-year contract for the veteran minimum. That being said, the deal is worth a little over $3 million considering McGee has over 10 years of NBA service time. The expectation is that McGee will make […]

Franz Wagner Could Play On Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) has missed most of the World Cup, but might be able to return on Wednesday. The young forward is currently considered as a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup with Latvia. The German team would certainly be happy to see Wagner back on the court, but they aren't going to […]

Joey Votto To Ease Into Hitting

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto (shoulder) has been going through his strengthening program and has added on more hitting, according to manager David Bell. However, the Reds haven't given a timetable for Votto's return from the injured list. He was first eligible to return from the IL on Sunday, but that won't happen because […]

Max Muncy Pulled From Sunday's Game

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy (shoulder) has been removed early during Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The left-handed slugger tweaked his shoulder on a swing, which resulted in his departure from the ballgame. Dodgers' manager Dave Roberts said postgame that Muncy should be fine and shouldn't require a trip to the injured list. […]

Brady Singer Hopeful To Start On Tuesday

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Brady Singer (arm) remains on the paternity leave list, but could be activated this week. The organization is hopeful that Singer will be available for their upcoming series against the Chicago White Sox. The team has already confirmed Cole Ragans and Jordan Lyles as their starters for Monday and Wednesday. […]

Nathan Eovaldi Could Return On Tuesday

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (forearm) could rejoin the starting rotation as early as Tuesday. The right-hander was able to throw a bullpen session on Sunday, which is a step in the right direction. It sounds like Eovaldi will take the mound on Tuesday as long as he doesn't have any issues following this […]

Jonathan India Nearing Rehab Assignment

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (foot) could begin a rehab assignment within the next week, according to manager David Bell. The 26-year-old has been on the injured list since July 30 due to plantar fasciitis. The good news is that India progressed to running on Monday. Bell mentioned that India is likely going to […]

Connor Phillips To Start On Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Connor Phillips is scheduled to make his MLB debut against the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. The right-hander was recalled on Saturday to replace Brandon Williamson (illness) on the active roster. The Reds currently have four players on the COVID-19 injured list, so they can use all the reinforcements they can get […]

Adam Wainwright Has Start Pushed Back

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright will have his next start on Sunday pushed back until Thursday. The 42-year-old pitched well during his last outing, but indicated afterwards he wasn't feeling good on the mound. The Cardinals will give the veteran pitcher some more rest, so Zack Thompson will start on Sunday. Thompson was […]

Graham Ashcraft Officially Placed On Injured List

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft (toe) has been officially placed on the 15-day injured list on Saturday. This was the expectation after Ashcraft suffered a right toe injury. The right-hander pitched through the issue during his last start on Monday versus the Chicago Cubs. The team has decided to give Ashcraft some extra rest […]

J.D. Davis Returning To The Lineup On Saturday

San Francisco Giants third baseman J.D. Davis (hand) will return to the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. The 30-year-old was scratched ahead of Friday's contest due to left hand soreness. Luckily, it appears to only be a minor issue as Davis is back in the lineup on Saturday. He'll serve […]

Danny Jansen Placed On 10-Day Injured List

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen (finger) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. This doesn't comes as a surprise after Jansen fractured his finger when he took a ball off his hand during Friday's game. The team hasn't given a timetable for his return to the field. There is a chance […]

Ryan Mountcastle Remains Out On Saturday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (illness) remains out of Saturday's starting lineup against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This marks the second game in a row that Mountcastle has missed due to an illness. In his absence, Ryan O'Hearn will cover first base and bat cleanup versus right-hander Slade Cecconi on Saturday. O'Hearn doesn't offer much […]

Riley Greene Placed On Injured List

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene (elbow) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The 22-year-old suffered a right elbow injury while making a catch in the outfield during Friday's contest. The team will now shut down Greene for at least a week to let the swelling in his elbow go down. This […]

Brandon Williamson Won't Pitch On Sunday

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Brandon Williamson won't make his scheduled start on Sunday due to COVID-19, according to manager David Bell. The team hasn't officially placed Williamson on the injured list, but that will likely happen soon. This is bad timing considering Williamson has been a key piece to the starting rotation this season. The […]

Emmet Sheehan Named Saturday's Starter

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Emmet Sheehan has been recalled and will make the start against the Atlanta Braves on Saturday. The Dodgers will use this chance to give their starting pitchers an extra day of rest. This is something that the Dodgers might do more often down the stretch of the season. Fantasy managers […]

Jasson Dominguez Moved Up To Third In The Lineup

New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez has already moved up in the order after batting fifth in his MLB debut on Friday. Dominguez came ready to play as he hit his first career home run off Justin Verlander. The 20-year-old will move to the three-hole and cover center field versus right-hander Hunter Brown on Saturday. […]

Gleyber Torres Remains Out On Saturday

New York Yankees infielder Gleyber Torres (back) remains out of Saturday's starting lineup versus the Houston Astros. The 26-year-old was scratched on Friday due to a back issue. It doesn't sound like he'll require a trip to the injured list, which is good news for fantasy managers. Oswald Peraza will cover second base and bat […]

Javier Baez Returns To The Lineup On Saturday

Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Baez is back in Saturday's starting lineup versus the Chicago White Sox. The right-handed slugger is back in the lineup after missing each of the last three games. It doesn't appear that Baez is dealing with an injury, so possibly his absence is due to his struggles at the plate. The […]
