Jason Heyward Gets Designated for Assignment

San Diego Padres outfielder Jason Heyward (oblique) has been designated for assignment by the organization on Saturday. Heyward is currently on the injured list, but the team has decided to remove him from the roster rather than activate him. In a corresponding move, left-hander Bryan Hoeing (shoulder) has been activated off the injured list. Heyward […]

Thairo Estrada Remains Sidelined on Saturday

Colorado Rockies infielder Thairo Estrada (hand) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This marks the fourth game in a row that Estrada has missed due to a right hand injury. He was hit by a pitch on the right hand on Tuesday and hasn't been able to […]

Max Kranick Heading to Injured List

New York Mets relief pitcher Max Kranick (elbow) has been placed on the 15-day injured list. He underwent an MRI that revealed a flexor strain in his right elbow, so Kranick will miss some time. The expectation is that Kranick is going to miss 3-4 weeks of action. That being said, Kranick is unlikely to […]

Tyler Glasnow Beginning Rehab Assignment

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow (shoulder) is set to make a rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City. Glasnow threw a 40-pitch live batting practice session earlier in the week. It appears that session went well enough that Glasnow will start making rehab starts. It sounds like the plan is for Glasnow to make […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Wants to Participate in Home Run Derby

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. said on Friday that he'd participate in the upcoming Home Run Derby if invited this year. The All-Star game will be held in Truist Park this year, so it's only fitting that Acuna gets involved. The league always wants to have a home team representative for the tournament. Acuna […]

Dennis Santana Handed Four-Game Suspension

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Dennis Santana has been suspended four games for his action during the second game of the doubleheader against the Detroit Tigers on Thursday.

This happened after […]

Logan O'Hoppe Absent on Friday

Los Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Astros. O'Hoppe will now head to the bench for the second straight game.

Jake Burger Exits Early on Friday

Texas Rangers corner infielder Jake Burger (side) was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Burger appeared to grab his side after striking out in the seventh inning. He was pulled from the contest after that due to left side tightness. The expectation is that Burger will undergo further […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. Playing on Friday

San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (hand) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Kansas City Royals. There was speculation that Tatis would miss time after getting hit in the hand by a pitch during Thursday's contest. Luckily, the X-rays came back negative and Tatis is back without missing […]

Xazavian Valladay Waived by Saints

New Orleans Saints running back Xazavian Valladay was released by the organization on Friday. This isn't a shocking move given the Saints recently signed running back Cam Akers. The Saints running back room was getting a little crowded, so they've decided to move on from Valladay. The 26-year-old hasn't done much during his pro career. […]

Tre' McKitty Released by Browns

Cleveland Browns tight end Tre' McKitty has been waived by the organization. McKitty didn't stay too long in Cleveland as he signed a futures deal in January after joining the team late last season. Before that, McKitty spent three seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers. He totaled 16 receptions for 117 yards with zero touchdowns […]

Chig Okonkwo Building Chemistry with Cam Ward

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo is reportedly looking good in recent open practices. Okonkwo has caught the most passes during OTAs and appears to be building a strong chemistry with rookie quarterback Cam Ward. The former fourth-round pick hasn't been too successful over his first three seasons. Over the last two years, Okonkwo has […]

Pete Crow-Armstrong Smacks Two-Run Homer

Chicago Cubs outfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong continued his strong campaign during Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. He got the scoring going early with a two-run home run off right-hander Freddy Peralta in the first inning. It was his 20th home run of the season as Crow-Armstrong became the first player to reach 20 steals and […]

Willson Contreras Knocks in Three Runs

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Willson Contreras put together a nice day at the plate during the first game of the doubleheader against the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. Contreras would kick off the scoring with a sacrifice fly in the opening frame. He was fairly quiet for the rest of the game until blasting a […]

Jac Caglianone Smacks Two Solo Homers

Kansas City Royals first baseman/outfielder Jac Caglianone achieved a big milestone during Thursday's game against the Texas Rangers. Caglianone took left-hander Jacob Latz deep in the second inning for his first career big league homer. He wasn't done as he took Robert Garcia deep in the ninth inning for his second home run of the […]

James Wood Blasts Two Homers

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood helped his team break a long losing streak on Thursday.

Wood came up and […]

Byron Buxton Homers Twice in Win

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton continued showing off his power during Thursday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Buxton started off the scoring quickly with a leadoff home run off right-hander Nick Martinez to begin the game. The 31-year-old came up again in the second inning and took Martinez deep for the second time in two […]

Will Smith Absent From Wednesday's Lineup

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres. This appears to be a routine rest day for Smith who has started in each of the last two games. During that span, Smith is 5-for-8 at the plate with two doubles, one home […]

Francisco Alvarez Getting Rest Day

New York Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Alvarez will get a rest day here after starting in each of the last two games. He has struggled at the plate recently, which could be part of the reason he's on the bench again. […]

Brett Baty Remains Out on Wednesday

New York Mets infielder Brett Baty (groin) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Baty was forced to exit early during Sunday's game due to groin tightness. The Mets had a scheduled off day on Monday, but since then Baty has missed the next two games. For now, […]

Ryan Jeffers Resting on Wednesday

Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers (hand) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. This news isn't shocking after Jeffers was lifted from Tuesday's game after getting hit in the hand. The X-rays came back negative, so fantasy managers should consider Jeffers as day-to-day for now. The expectation is […]

Tyler Stephenson, Christian Encarnacion-Strand Absent on Wednesday

Cincinnati Reds catcher Tyler Stephenson and first baseman Christian Encarnacion-Strand are out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Stephenson will take a seat after starting in four of the last five games, in which four of them were behind the plate. Jose Trevino will take over behind the plate […]

Jonatan Clase, Myles Straw Sitting on Wednesday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielders Jonatan Clase (knee) and Myles Straw (ankle) are absent from the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Both players were forced to exit early during Tuesday's game due to injury. Unsurprisingly, both players will sit out a day later, but are still considered day-to-day right now. The […]

Tyler Glasnow Throws Simulated Game

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow (shoulder) threw a two-inning simulated game on Tuesday. This marks the second time that Glasnow has faced hitters while he works his way back from shoulder inflammation. The right-hander has been out since late April, but Glasnow appears to be making progress. The expectation is that Glasnow is […]

Gabriel Moreno Scratched on Tuesday With Sore Hand

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno (hand) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays with right-hand soreness, according to MLB.com's Steve Gilbert. Moreno dealt with a hand injury earlier in the month, so maybe he aggravated it. Fantasy managers should consider Moreno to be day-to-day for now […]

Hyeseong Kim Absent on Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Hyeseong Kim is heading to the bench ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Kim is now out of the starting lineup for the third time in the last four games. Sadly, there isn't enough playing time for Kim to see regular at-bats in the Dodgers lineup right now. […]

Seth Brown Placed on Injured List

Athletics outfielder Seth Brown (elbow) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Brown has missed the last four games with this lingering elbow issue. The A's have finally decided to place him on the shelf because the injury wasn't getting better. Brown has struggled with the bat this season, so he's already […]

Gio Urshela Activated From Injured List

Athletics third baseman Gio Urshela (hamstring) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Urshela is back on the A's roster after being sidelined since late May due to a hamstring injury. He figures to be in the mix for playing time at third base with Max Muncy. Urshela was hitting extremely well […]
