Andrew Painter Plays Catch On Monday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Andrew Painter (elbow) was able to play catch on Monday. This was the first time that the right-hander has been able to throw since suffering a right elbow sprain at the beginning of March. The Phillies have been extremely cautious with their top pitching prospect. He'll likely be eased into bullpen […]

Tyler O'Neill Gets The Day Off

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The 27-year-old was recently benched for lack of hustle, but this appears to be a routine rest day. Regardless, Dylan Carlson will cover center field and bat eighth versus righty German Marquez on Monday. Fantasy […]

MJ Melendez To Miss Monday's Game

Kansas City Royals catcher MJ Melendez (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Texas Rangers. This appears to be a routine day off for the left-handed slugger. The 23-year-old could certainly use it after slashing .152/.263/.303 with one homer, two RBI and a league-leading 15 strikeouts to begin the season. […]

Adam Duvall Has Broken Wrist

Boston Red Sox outfielder Adam Duvall (wrist) underwent X-rays on Monday after suffering an injury during Sunday's contest. The testing revealed that Duvall has a broken wrist, which means he'll be out for the foreseeable future. The organization is uncertain if Duvall is going to need surgery on his wrist. That being said, his timetable […]

Josh Jung Resting On Monday

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Kansas City Royals. It's a well deserved day off after Jung played in the first nine games to begin the season. He's slashing .229/.270/.429 with a pair of homers and five RBI right now. The 25-year-old should […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Wants To Remain With Hornets

Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. is set to become a free agent this season. Despite that, Oubre mentioned he'd like to remain with the Hornets going forward. However, he also said that he understands there's a business side to basketball. That means, if the money isn't there or the Hornets don't want him then […]

P.J. Washington Wants To Stay In Charlotte

Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington is set to become a restricted free agent this summer. Although, the 24-year-old said his preference would be to stay in Charlotte.

Jaden McDaniels Out For Postseason

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (wrist) is officially done for the season after suffering an injury on Sunday. The 22-year-old fractured his right hand after punching a wall while heading to the locker room. As expected, McDaniels won't suit up for Tuesday's play-in or take the court again this season. This is a tough blow […]

Paul George To Remain Sidelined During First Round

Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (knee) will remain sidelined for the beginning of the team's first-round series against the Phoenix Suns. As expected, the 32-year-old remains sidelined as they plan to re-evaluate him this week. At this point, it's uncertain how much longer George is going to be out. The fact George hasn't been […]

Rudy Gobert Suspended One Game

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert has been suspended one game for his actions during Sunday's contest. The 30-year-old big man punched fellow teammate Kyle Anderson while in the huddle. In response, Gobert has been suspended for Tuesday's play-in matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. A tough blow to the T-Wolves who are already without Jaden […]

Drey Jameson Moving Into Starting Rotation

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Drey Jameson will shift into the starting rotation, according to manager Torey Lovullo. This was expected to happen with Zach Davies (oblique) heading to the injured list. Jameson has been pitching in long relief for the D-Backs after failing to earn a rotation spot this spring. He has a 2.26 ERA, 1.20 […]

Avisail Garcia Removed Early On Sunday

Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) was removed early during Sunday's game against the New York Mets. Garcia was pulled out of the game in the fifth inning due to left hamstring tightness. The severity of the injury is unknown, so it's uncertain whether or not Garcia will require a trip to the injured list. […]

Matt Brash Struggles On Sunday

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Matt Brash was unable to shut the door versus the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday. The right-hander was asked to take the mound in the ninth with Paul Sewald unavailable. Brash struggled in this outing, allowing two hits, two earned runs, and struck out three batters during his one inning of work. […]

Bobby Dalbec Expected To Join Team On Monday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec is expected to join the team in Tampa Bay on Monday. The team hasn't made an official move yet, but the expectation is that Adam Duvall (wrist) will be placed on the injured list. The right-handed slugger suffered an injury during Sunday's game. It seems like the team […]

Pierce Johnson Records Third Save

Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Pierce Johnson has done a solid job filling in for Daniel Bard (personal) who is currently on the injured list. Johnson was called upon to hold a one-run lead against the Washington Nationals on Sunday. The right-hander allowed one walk, but was able to shut the door and record his third […]

Taylor Rogers Notches First Save

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Taylor Rogers was asked to take the mound in the ninth inning during Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. The left-hander was able to get through all three of the batters he faced and earn his first save of the season. Normally, Camilo Doval is the primary closer, but […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Upgraded To Questionable

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He was originally listed as out on the injury report, but that appears to have changed. Bol Bol and Goga Bitadze have been starting in place of Carter over the last two games. Obviously, they'd take a […]

Steven Adams Unlikely To Play In Postseason

Memphis Grizzlies center Steven Adams (knee) is unlikely to play in the upcoming postseason. The big man has been sidelined since January due to a sprained PCL in his right knee. He underwent a stem cell injection in early March to aid in the recovery process, but it appears Adams won't be available for the […]

Jarrett Allen Questionable For Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The Cavs have already ruled out most of their starters considering they already know their playoff opponent. That being said, it wouldn't be surprising to see them give Allen the night off to rest. It's likely that Robin […]

Jaylen Brown Won't Play On Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This is not surprising considering Brown needed five stitches after cutting his finger while picking up a broken vase in his home. That being said, the Celtics will rest Brown with this game not having any impact on […]

De'Andre Hunter Probable For Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. This seems odd considering the Hawks are resting most of their starters in this game. This contest has no impact on the Hawks postseason seeding, so they don't want to risk any injuries. Despite that, Hunter appears on […]

Trae Young Resting On Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (rest) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Hawks have decided to rest their starters considering this game has no impact on their seeding for the postseason. That being said, fantasy managers should expect the Hawks bench players to get heavy playing time here. Aaron Holiday […]

Jurickson Profar To Rest On Saturday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Jurickson Profar (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals. A well deserved day off after Profar has played in every game since joining the team on April 2. The 30-year-old hasn't hit too well, but maybe a day off will help him get back into […]

Miguel Rojas To Miss Fifth Straight Game

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas (groin) is being held out of the starting lineup for the fifth straight game. The 34-year-old will miss Saturday's game versus the Arizona Diamondbacks as he continues to deal with a lingering groin issue. At this point, the Dodgers might want to consider doing a backdated injured list stint. […]

Jorge Mateo To Miss Saturday's Game

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Jorge Mateo (ankle) is being held out of Saturday's game against the New York Yankees. The 27-year-old has been dealing with a lingering ankle issue, but continues to get treatment for it. Right now, it doesn't sound like Mateo is going to need a trip to the injured list. This appears to […]

Luis Garcia Being Held Out On Saturday

Washington Nationals second baseman Luis Garcia (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The 22-year-old was removed from Friday's contest due to hamstring tightness. It appears Garcia is still dealing with the issue, so he'll at least miss Saturday's game. Although, it wouldn't be shocking to see Garcia […]

Nolan Gorman To Sit On Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Nolan Gorman (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The left-handed slugger will take a seat here against lefty starter Eric Lauer. He'll be joined by fellow left-handers Brendan Donovan and Alec Burleson on the Cards bench. Juan Yepez will serve as the […]

Austin Meadows To Miss Some Time

Detroit Tigers outfielder Austin Meadows (personal) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. The left-handed slugger will take some time away from the team due to anxiety. There is no word yet on how long Meadows is going to be out. In the meantime, Akil Baddoo has been recalled from Triple-A. He has been […]

Mitch Haniger Continues Making Progress

San Francisco Giants outfielder Mitch Haniger (hamstring) has been sidelined roughly a month due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain. He suffered a setback, which has pushed his timetable backwards. However, it appears the 32-year-old is finally getting back on track. On Friday, Haniger mentioned that he's getting ready to hit off a tee. It […]

Daulton Varsho To Rest On Friday

Toronto Blue Jays catcher/outfielder Daulton Varsho (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. It's a well deserved day off for Varsho who has played in the first seven games to begin the season. Recently recalled Jordan Luplow will serve as the designated hitter and bat eighth against […]
