Nick Pratto Absent On Monday

Kansas City Royals first baseman Nick Pratto is absent from Monday's starting lineup against the Cleveland Guardians. This appears to be a routine rest day for the 24-year-old slugger. This season, Pratto is slashing .241/.330/.383 with seven homers, 31 RBI in 68 games. Matt Duffy will start in his place at first base and bat […]

Adolis Garcia Remains Out Of The Lineup

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia (hand) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Houston Astros. The 30-year-old slugger was hit by a pitch on the hand during Saturday's game. He sat out of Sunday's contest as a precaution and will miss this game as well. It sounds like a day-to-day issue, […]

Raimel Tapia Elects Free Agency

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Raimel Tapia has decided to elect free agency on Monday. He was recently designated for assignment by the organization in order to make room for Sal Frelick on the active roster. The 29-year-old spent time with the Boston Red Sox earlier in the season before joining the Brewers. He's slashing .230/.308/.388 with […]

C.J. Cron To Sit Out On Monday

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (back) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Washington Nationals. This marks the third game in a row that Cron has missed due to back tightness. The assumption is that the 33-year-old is going to be moved at the upcoming trade deadline. That being said, […]

Kris Bryant Remains Out On Monday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Kris Bryant (finger) is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Washington Nationals. The right-handed slugger will miss his second straight game as he continues to nurse a finger contusion he suffered over the weekend. The assumption is that he'll avoid the injured list, so fantasy managers should consider […]

Javier Baez Sitting Out On Monday

Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Baez is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Baez has struggled throughout most of the season so far. However, he's put together a solid .710 OPS with one home run and three steals since the All-Star break. Hopefully, it's a sign of good things […]

Reds Willing To Trade Jonathan India

Cincinnati Reds infielder Jonathan India could be on the trade block as the trade deadline quickly approaches.

Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story (elbow) had his minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester moved to Monday.

Byron Buxton Expected To Be Placed On Paternity Leave List

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is expected to be placed on the paternity leave list ahead of Monday's game. The 29-year-old could miss up to three games while on the paternity list.

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Danny Jansen (forearm) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners.

Alek Manoah Delivers Decent Performance

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah was asked to take the mound against the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. The right-hander looked decent as he struck out six batters on the afternoon. The 25-year-old went 5 1/3 innings, allowing three hits, three runs, and also gave up four walks during his no-decision. At least fantasy […]

Cody Bellinger Hits Two-Run Homer

Chicago Cubs outfielder/first baseman Cody Bellinger has been seemingly unstoppable at the plate over the last month. The left-handed slugger continued to have success versus the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. Bellinger blasted a two-run home run in the first inning to get the Cubbies on the board. He would finished the day with three […]

Houston Astros starting pitcher Hunter Brown looked fairly sharp during his start against the Oakland Athletics on Sunday. The right-hander went six innings, allowing six hits and two runs while striking out four batters. The 24-year-old earned a quality start for his effort, but also was handed a no-decision. He'll carry a 4.19 ERA, 1.32 […]

Bryan Abreu Earns Third Save

Houston Astros relief pitcher Bryan Abreu was called upon to protect a one-run lead versus the Oakland Athletics on Sunday. Normally, Ryan Pressly is the closer in Houston, but he received an off day here. In his absence, Abreu came in and retired all three batters he faced, including two strikeouts. The 26-year-old recorded his […]

Amari Cooper Leaves Practice Early

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper left the practice field early on Sunday due to a minor tweak.

Kendall Hinton Goes On PUP List

Denver Broncos wide receiver Kendall Hinton (knee) was placed on the unable to perform list on Sunday. The 26-year-old had a minor knee scope and is expected to be ready by the beginning of the season. Sadly for him, the Broncos have added more talent to their wide receiver group this offseason. Hinton will need […]

KJ Hamler Placed On Non-Football Injury List

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler has been placed on the non-football injury list on Sunday. This seems like a formality after Hamler underwent major muscular surgery on his pectoral in March. It sounds like Hamler might be able to avoid landing on the PUP list, but we'll see how his recovery process goes the […]

Chase Claypool Placed On PUP List

Chicago Bears wide receiver Chase Claypool was placed on the physically unable to perform list on Sunday. The 25-year-old has been in and out of team activities while he's dealing with some unknown issues. It's apparently significant enough that the Bears felt the need to place him on the PUP list. Claypool is heading into […]

Rashod Bateman Reports To Camp

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman was recently placed on the did not report list, which started raising questions about his status. However, the 23-year-old has officially arrived to camp on Sunday. The organization has changed his status back to active, so fantasy managers shouldn't have anything to worry about. It's still uncertain why Bateman […]

Javonte Williams To Avoid PUP List

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (knee) will avoid going on the PUP list to begin training camp. That is great news after Williams has been trending in the right direction over the last few weeks. The organization does not believe he'll need that mandated four games on the PUP list. The 23-year-old is expected […]

Max Fried To Make Another Rehab Start

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried (forearm) will make at least one more rehab start after pitching on Friday with Triple-A Gwinnett. Fried allowed three runs while striking out five in 3 1/3 innings during Friday's outing. The left-hander has been sidelined since early May due to a left forearm strain. The organization was hopeful […]

Kris Bryant Considered Day-To-Day

Colorado Rockies outfielder Kris Bryant (finger) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Miami Marlins.

Anthony Rendon To Miss Another Two Weeks

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (shin) won't be back on the field anytime soon. He was recently placed on the injured list after fouling a ball off his shin earlier this month. The team said they have found internal bleeding around the bone bruise on his shin. That being said, the Angels plan […]

Willson Contreras Removed Early On Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Willson Contreras (hip) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs. The 31-year-old was pulled after five innings due to right hip tightness. The organization considers him day-to-day, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect Contreras to land on the injured list. He might miss the rest of the […]

Adolis Garcia Exits Early On Saturday

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia (hand) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Garcia took a 98-mph pitch to the right hand and exited the game shortly after that. The assumption is that Garcia was pulled as a precaution, but the Rangers are likely to do further testing. Hopefully, […]

Zach Neto Scratched On Saturday

Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto (back) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. It appears the 22-year-old is dealing with back tightness. Halos manager Phil Nevin said the team is hopeful it's just a minor issue and Neto only misses one game because of it. In […]
