Michael Lorenzen To Throw Off Mound Next Week

Cincinnati Reds pitcher Michael Lorenzen (shoulder) will begin throwing off the mound next week. The hard-throwing righty has not pitched this season due to a shoulder strain.

He owns a horrendous 6.36 ERA with a 1.60 WHIP and 68/34 K/BB ratio across 69 1/3 innings in his big league career. To be fair, Rios has posted a 0.66 ERA, 0.73 WHIP and 17/2 K/BB in […]

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong (ribs) will begin a rehab assignment in Triple-A on Saturday. It sounds like the plan is that DeJong will play both Saturday and Sunday.

San Diego Padres outfielder Tommy Pham (face) is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the New York Mets. On Wednesday, Pham and Ha-Seong Kim collided while attempting to track a flyball. Pham received stitches in his chin and is likely going to be day-to-day. It wouldn't be shocking to see Pham get […]

Cabrera has been horrendous at the plate and […]

Keston Hiura Out Of The Lineup Thursday

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Keston Hiura (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This is not shocking considering Hiura has one hit since returning to the MLB roster on May 24. He has been horrendous at the plate and is a drop candidate in most fantasy formats. Daniel Vogelbach […]

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Adam Haseley (personal) is set to join Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday. He was placed on the restricted list back in mid-April due to personal reasons.

Michael Feliz Returns To Reds Bullpen

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Michael Feliz (undisclosed) has been activated from the injured list. The organization did not give a reason for Feliz being placed on the IL earlier this week.
