Daniel Vogelbach is Not in the Lineup on Sunday
Seattle Mariners designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach (neck) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. This is a minor issue, but with the Mariners out of contention there is no need to rush Vogelbach back to the field. Tom Murphy will serve as the designated hitter and bat fifth versus […]

Brandon Lowe Has Been Activated on Sunday
Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Brandon Lowe (quad) has been activated from the 60-day injured list on Sunday. Manager Kevin Cash announced a month ago that Lowe would be out for the rest of the regular season due to a strained left quad. However, he's made a quick recovery and is in the starting lineup […]

Miguel Cabrera Remains Out of the Lineup
Detroit Tigers designated hitter Miguel Cabrera (knee) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Chicago White Sox.

Travis Kelce Should Succeed in Tough Matchup
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce came to play in the Week 2 victory over the Oakland Raiders. Kelce caught seven of his nine targets for 107 yards and one touchdown.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson had a huge game versus the Oakland Raiders in Week 2. He caught all six of his targets for 172 yards and two touchdowns in the victory.

Mecole Hardman Looks to Maintain WR2 Upside
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman was able to make some noise for the team in the victory over the Oakland Raiders in Week 2. Hardman caught four passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in that contest. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) remains sidelined, so Hardman will continue to have decent fantasy value. Demarcus Robinson […]

Sammy Watkins Hopes to Rebound in Week 3
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins saw a team-high 13 targets in the victory over the Oakland Raiders in Week 2. However, Watkins hauled in just six of those balls for 49 yards and didn't find the end zone. It was a disappointing game for fantasy owners as Watkins was expected to be much […]

Darwin Thompson Should See Snaps in Week 3
Kansas City Chiefs running back Darwin Thompson should be more involved in the running game for Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens. Lead back Damien Williams (knee) has been ruled out for this one.

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy should be looking at a heavier workload for Sunday's Week 3 contest versus the Baltimore Ravens. Lead back Damien Williams (knee) has already been ruled out for this one. McCoy has been battling an ankle issue, so the Chiefs will be cautious about that. Darwin Thompson is going […]

Patrick Mahomes is Elite QB1 Option for Week 3
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has thrown seven touchdowns without any interceptions through two games this season. He has 821 passing yards and should easily jump into the 1,000 mark on Sunday. Mahomes will go up against the Baltimore Ravens Defense that was carved up by rookie quarterback Kyler Murray last week. Mahomes should […]

Javier Baez is Available Off the Bench
Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez (thumb) is unable to hit, but can still contribute to the team during Saturday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Max Muncy Tweaks Quad on Friday
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy (quad) is unlikely to suit up for Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Muncy tweaked his quad in the seventh inning of Friday's game versus the Rockies. He returned last week from a wrist injury, so the Dodgers don't need him going down again. The Dodgers believe the quad […]

Tim Locastro Covers Center Field on Friday
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Tim Locastro (back) is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the San Diego Padres. Ketel Marte (back) has been shut down for the rest of the 2019 season.

Max Kepler is Out Again on Friday
Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (shoulder) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Kansas City Royals.
