Texas Rangers relief pitcher Spencer Patton recorded his first career save versus the Los Angeles Angels on Monday.

He did blow his first save on Saturday, […]

Dane Dunning Has Solid Outing Versus Angels

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Dane Dunning posted his second straight quality outing in a row on Monday. He went five innings, three hits allowed, one earned run, two walks, and three strikeouts in the 4-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels. The Rangers continue to limit his pitch count as he hasn't thrown over 89 […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Activated From Injury List

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) has been activated from the non-football injury list. The Pats selected Stevenson in the fourth round of this year's draft. He draws comparisons to LeGarrette Blount for his size and ability to truck over defenders. However, Stevenson was also an efficient receiver at Oklahoma. His return could […]

Jarrett Stidham Will Miss Training Camp

New England Patriots quarterback Jarrett Stidham (back) underwent surgery and will miss the rest of training camp. Stidham had back surgery and was given a three-month timetable. He'll miss the beginning of the regular season, but wasn't going to compete for a starting spot anyway. Veteran Cam Newton and rookie Mac Jones are battling for […]

D.J. Fluker Placed On Injured Reserve

Miami Dolphins right guard D.J. Fluker (knee) has been placed on the injured reserve to begin training camp. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero hinted that the Dolphins might cut Fluker with an injury settlement. Fluker is currently sidelined due to a meniscus injury and should be back in roughly a month. The veteran guard made eight […]

Will Fuller Nearing Return To Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller (undisclosed) is nearing a return to practice, according to head coach Brian Flores. Fuller went down during the team's first practice, but the team is likely just playing it safe. The Dolphins are without Preston Williams (foot), DeVante Parker (undisclosed), and Fuller to kick off camp. It's worth noting […]

Josh Allen Not Close To Contract Extension

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen does not appear close to a contract extension with the organization. The Bills exercised their fifth-year option on Allen to keep him under team control through 2022. It sounds like the two sides could break off talks before August 15 and wait until next offseason. Buffalo is likely going to […]

Royce Lewis Begins Fielding, Throwing Drills

Minnesota Twins shortstop Royce Lewis (knee) began doing fielding and throwing drills last week. He is currently working his way back from a torn ACL at the Twins team complex in Fort Myers. The 22-year-old is expected to do some jogging and hitting as early as next week. Lewis won't be a factor for the […]

Adalberto Mondesi Might Not Start In 2022

Kansas City Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi (oblique) might not be the long term answer, according to Royals GM Dane Moore. Recently, Moore mentioned that he doesn't believe Mondesi is going to be an everyday player in 2022. "We're learning that we're going to have to manage his workloads in ways that he may not be […]

John Axford Returns To Brewers

Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher John Axford has been traded to the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for cash considerations. The 38-year-old has not pitched in the majors since the 2018 season. Although, Axford has posted a 0.77 ERA and 15/3 K/BB ratio over 11 2/3 innings in the minors this season. He will immediately join […]

Eli Morgan Recalled, Starting Versus Blue Jays

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Eli Morgan has been recalled to make the start against the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday. Morgan has struggled with a 7.47 ERA over 31 1/3 innings with the Indians this season. This isn't an ideal spot for Morgan against a strong Blue Jays lineup. He won't be a recommended streaming […]

Chris Sale To Make Another Rehab Start

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale (elbow) is expected to make at least one more rehab start. He tossed five innings of one-run ball on Saturday in Triple-A Worcester. Sale has posted a 1.76 ERA and a 27/2 K/BB ratio in 15 1/3 innings over four starts in the minors. It sounds like Sale […]

Austin Riley Knocks In Lone Run On Sunday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Austin Riley was seemingly the only offense for this team on Sunday. He went 2-for-4 with an RBI during Sunday's close to 2-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. Riley slapped an RBI single in the sixth inning off righty John Curtiss as the only run for this offense. It was a frustrating […]

Charlie Morton Gets Tough Luck Loss

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Charlie Morton was solid on the mound, but was saddled with the loss on Sunday. He went six innings, three hits allowed, two earned runs, and six strikeouts in the 2-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Braves offense didn't help Morton, but at least fantasy managers got a solid outing […]

Charlie Culberson Has Three-Hit Game

Texas Rangers infielder Charlie Culberson was a tough player to get out during Sunday's game versus the Seattle Mariners. He went 3-for-4 at the plate with three singles during the 4-3 win on Sunday. Those three hits pushed his batting average to .237, but still isn't at a respectable mark. He also has three home […]

Andy Ibanez Hits Clutch Homer Versus Mariners

Texas Rangers infielder Andy Ibanez has not been a huge part of the lineup this season, but came up clutch on Sunday. He went 2-for-4 with a single, home run, and two RBI in the victory. Ibanez came up clutch in the ninth and blasted a two-run game tying homer off righty Erik Swanson. He […]

Jonah Heim Hits Another Walkoff Sunday

Texas Rangers catcher Jonah Heim is looking like prime Babe Ruth at the plate over the weekend. The 26-year-old hit a pair of home runs including a walkoff winner in the 10th inning on Saturday. Heim returned as the DH for Sunday's contest and continued his clutch ways at the plate. He went 2-for-4 with […]

Mike Foltynewicz Has Decent Outing On Sunday

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Mike Foltynewicz finally put together a decent outing after getting smacked around his last few starts. He went five innings, three hits allowed, two earned runs, three walks, and one strikeouts versus the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. Both of his runs came with the bases loaded in the second inning. However, […]

Alex Bregman Pulled Early During Rehab Game

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hamstring) was removed early during Sunday's rehab game with Triple-A Sugar Land. It sounds like he was removed from the game as a precaution. Bregman should return in a day or two, but this could push back his return date to the big league roster. The hope was that […]

Josh James Activated, Optioned To Minors

Houston Astros pitcher Josh James (hip) has been activated off the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land. He was already with the organization for a rehab assignment, so he won't have to go anywhere. The 28-year-old righty has been sidelined all season due to a hip issue. He'll get some more work […]

Huascar Ynoa Gets Lit Up During Rehab Start

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Huascar Ynoa (hand) was not sharp during his rehab start in Single-A Rome on Sunday. He only pitched two innings, eight hits allowed, six runs allowed, while striking out two. The most important thing is that Ynoa is healthy and back on the mound. He has been sidelined since mid-May due […]

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Gets Day Off On Sunday

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. This marks Guerrero's first rest day of the season, so it's well-deserved. Cavan Biggio will cover first base and bat sixth versus righty Brad Keller. Biggio is not a favorable fantasy option […]

Jorge Soler Collects Three Hits In Braves Debut

Atlanta Braves outfielder Jorge Soler began his team debut with a bang on Saturday. He went 3-for-4 with an RBI single in the 8-1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Soler has struggled at the plate this season, but offers huge upside in terms of power. He is a threat to go deep everytime he steps […]

Kyle Muller Pitches Well In No-Decision

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kyle Muller pitched well during Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. He tossed five innings, four hits allowed, one earned run, two walks, and seven strikeouts in the 8-1 victory. Since joining the Braves, Muller has posted a 2.43 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 33/15 K/BB ratio across 29 2/3 innings. He'll […]

Thomas Hatch, Tayler Saucedo Optioned To Minors

Toronto Blue Jays pitchers Thomas Hatch and Tayler Saucedo has been optioned to Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday. The Jays needed to make room for Jose Berrios and Joakim Soria on the active roster. Saucedo performed well during his time in Toronto, so he could be back soon. He posted a 2.03 ERA and 0.98 WHIP […]

Billy Hamilton Heads To IL, Jimmy Lambert Recalled

Chicago White Sox outfielder Billy Hamilton (oblique) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive July 31. The switch-hitting speedy outfielder has been below average with the bat during his time in Chicago. His absence won't make much of an impact in the lineup. In the meantime, Jimmy Lambert has been recalled from Triple-A […]

Rhys Hoskins Remains Out On Sunday

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (groin) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He has not played since July 29 due to a tweaked groin. It sounds like he'll avoid a trip to the injured list, but will remain out of the lineup for a few days. In […]

Tigers Expected To Hold Onto Jonathan Schoop

Detroit Tigers second baseman Jonathan Schoop is unlikely to be moved before the July 30 trade deadline. The interest in Schoop has been limited enough that the Tigers don't believe it's worth it to deal him. Schoop is making $4.5 million this season and has put up a .791 OPS with 17 home runs and […]

White Sox Sign Reliever Kyle Crick

The Chicago White Sox have signed relief pitcher Kyle Crick to a minor league deal. He was designated for assignment by the Pittsburgh Pirates, but surprisingly didn't draw any interest. The righty reliever will now get a chance with a new organization. Crick has posted a 4.43 ERA with 21 strikeouts in 24.3 innings with […]

Spencer Howard Available For Trade

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Spencer Howard is reportedly available in trade discussions. He was viewed as the Phillies top pitching prospect prior to his debut last season. Since then, Howard has battled a few injuries and has struggled heavily at the MLB level. He has posted a 5.71 ERA through 28.3 innings with the Phillies […]
