Jonathan Schoop is Back in the Lineup Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jonathan Schoop is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Schoop has seen his playing time decrease lately because he has not done much with the bat since joining Milwaukee. He'll bat sixth and play shortstop versus righty Matt Harvey. Schoop is not worth trusting in DFS […]

Jesus Aguilar is Out of the Lineup Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Eric Thames will play first base and bat seventh versus righty Matt Harvey. However, Thames has not done much with the bat lately, so it's difficult to trust him in DFS contests.

Jose Bautista is Starting on Wednesday

Philadelphia Phillies corner infielder/outfielder Jose Bautista will make his first start in a Philly uniform on Wednesday. He'll bat sixth and play right field versus lefty Gio Gonzalez. Nick Williams and Odubel Herrera will get the night off on Wednesday. Roman Quinn will lead off and play center field. Both players should be cheap DFS […]

Billy McKinney Will Lead Off Wednesday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Billy McKinney will lead off and play left field versus righty Alex Cobb on Wednesday. McKinney has been on fire since being called up by the Jays. However, his emergence has taken away playing time from the veteran outfielder Curtis Granderson. Cobb has been fantastic in August, but has been crushed […]

Tim Anderson is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (ankle) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the New York Yankees. Anderson was pulled from Tuesday's game in the ninth inning due to a left ankle bruise. Jose Rondon will play shortstop and bat second against lefty C.C. Sabathia. Rondon has struggled versus right-handed pitching […]

Luke Voit is Sitting Out on Wednesday

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Voit has been on fire with the bat lately, but needs a day off after starting five straight contests. Miguel Andujar will serve as the DH and bat cleanup, while Greg Bird plays […]

Mitch Moreland is Out on Wednesday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins. Moreland is in an 0-for-9 slump at the plate, so he'll get the night off. Steve Pearce will draw the start at first base and bat third against righty Trevor Richards. Pearce is in […]

Manuel Margot is Sitting Out on Tuesday

San Diego Padres outfielder Manuel Margot (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Margot has been slumping, hitting .233/.222/.326 with one home run and three RBI over the last two weeks. Travis Jankowski will lead off and slide over to center field against righty Felix Hernandez. Normally Jankowski […]

David Dahl is Out of the Lineup Tuesday

Colorado Rockies outfielder David Dahl (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Dahl is hitting .326/.393/.589 with five home runs and 16 RBI off right-handed pitching this season, so clearly Tuesday is a rest day for him. Gerardo Parra will bat sixth and play left field against […]

Josh Harrison is Sitting Out Tuesday

Pittsburgh Pirates infielder/outfielder Josh Harrison (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Harrison aggravated his left hamstring injury on Saturday and has not been able to fully recover yet. Harrison is considered day-to-day for now, but it's unclear how much time he'll miss. Adam Frazier will draw […]

Wilmer Flores is Out of the Lineup Tuesday

New York Mets first baseman Wilmer Flores (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Flores is 0-for-8 over his last two games and has bad numbers versus lefty Cole Hamels in his career. Jay Bruce will draw the start at first base and bat sixth against Hamels on […]

Willson Contreras is Out on Tuesday

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New York Mets. Contreras has been awful with the bat over the last two weeks, so he'll get the day off to rest. Victor Caratini will start behind the plate and bat fifth versus Jacob deGrom. Caratini is […]

Matt Kemp, Yasiel Puig Out on Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielders Matt Kemp and Yasiel Puig are out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Texas Rangers. Puig had his suspension hearing on Tuesday, so that's likely why he's out of the lineup. Kemp is probably just getting a rest day and he's been slumping over the last month. Joc […]

C.J. Cron is Out of the Lineup on Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman C.J. Cron (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The Rays don't have a designated hitter in Atlanta, so Cron will sit this one out. Jake Bauers will cover first base and bat third against righty Julio Teheran. Bauers is not worth consideration […]

Eric Thames is Out of the Lineup Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman/outfielder Eric Thames (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Thames is hitting .154/.267/.154 with zero home runs and one RBI over the last two weeks. Ryan Braun will play left field and bat fifth, while Jesus Aguilar bats third and plays first base versus […]

Billy Hamilton Will Lead Off Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Billy Hamilton will lead off and play center field against righty Junior Guerra on Tuesday. Hamilton has been leading off the last couple of weeks and it's really sparked his bat. However, he's in an 0-for-8 slump at the plate right now, but Hamilton has good career numbers off Guerra. DFS players […]

Maikel Franco, Roman Quinn Out on Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Maikel Franco (rest) and outfielder Roman Quinn (rest) are out of the starting lineup on Tuesday. Asdrubal Cabrera will play third base and bat third, while Odubel Herrera plays center field and bats cleanup versus righty Max Scherzer. Neither player is a recommended DFS option against Scherzer, but Herrera did homer […]

Wilson Ramos is Out of the Lineup on Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies catcher Wilson Ramos (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Washington Nationals. Ramos is hitting .480/.462/.880 with one home run and eight RBI over the last two weeks. However, he's played in back-to-back games, so the Phillies want to give him some rest. Jorge Alfaro will start behind […]

Kevin Pillar is Back in the Lineup on Tuesday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Kevin Pillar is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Pillar sat out on Monday to rest after he collected just one hit over his last three games. He'll play center field and bat fifth versus rookie lefty Josh Rogers. Pillar has not been too trustworthy […]

Nick Delmonico Moves Up in the Batting Order

Chicago White Sox outfielder Nick Delmonico has moved up to the two spot in the batting order for Tuesday's contest against the New York Yankees. Delmonico usually bats eighth or sometimes sixth, but it's quite surprising to see him batting second on Tuesday. He'll bat second and play left field versus righty Lance Lynn. Delmonico […]

Luke Voit Remains in the Lineup Tuesday

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit will remain in the starting lineup for the fifth straight game on Tuesday. Voit has been on fire lately, recording eight hits over his last four games. He'll serve as the DH and bat fifth versus righty James Shields. DFS players may want to ride Voit's hot bat […]

Brett Gardner is Back in the Lineup Tuesday

New York Yankees outfielder Brett Gardner is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Gardner sat out of Monday versus lefty Carlos Rodon. However, Gardner will lead off and play left field against righty James Shields on Tuesday. He's worth a look in DFS contests because he's leading off […]

Tyreek Hill Has Great Third Preseason Game

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was impressive during Saturday's preseason loss to the Chicago Bears. Hill finished with eight receptions and 88 yards, but did not score a touchdown. It looks like quarterback Patrick Mahomes has found his favorite target on the Chiefs roster. There was some worry that Hill wouldn't have the […]

Kareem Hunt Quiet in Saturday's Loss

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has not done much during three preseason games. Hunt was held to just seven yards on three carries during Saturday's loss to the Bears. The Chiefs are obviously not going to run Hunt hard and risk an injury right before the regular season. However, Spencer Ware is back […]

Patrick Mahomes Plays Well in Saturday's Loss

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes played well in Saturday's preseason loss to the Chicago Bears. Mahomes was 18-for-24 with 196 yards and one touchdown on Saturday. The reports out of Chiefs camp were that Mahomes has struggled with interceptions, but he seemed fine against Chicago. Mahomes did not throw any interceptions in the loss […]

George Springer is Back in the Lineup Monday

Houston Astros outfielder George Springer (quad) is back in the starting lineup for Monday's contest. Springer has not played a game in over a week due to soreness in his left quad. Springer will lead off and play center field versus lefty Brett Anderson. Springer has not been great this season, but is a fairly […]

Jay Bruce is Out of the Lineup on Monday

New York Mets first baseman/outfielder Jay Bruce (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's contest against the Chicago Cubs. It's not surprising to see Bruce out of the lineup with lefty Jon Lester on the hill for the Cubs. Jose Bautista will bat sixth and play right field on Monday. Bautista has been […]

Albert Almora Jr. is Out on Monday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Albert Almora Jr. (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the New York Mets. Jason Heyward will slide over to center field and bat fifth, while Ben Zobrist plays right field and hits cleanup versus righty Noah Syndergaard. Heyward had a big game on Sunday, but has been […]

Cesar Hernandez is Batting Third on Monday

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Cesar Hernandez normally bats first in the Phillies batting order, but he will move down for Monday's contest. Roman Quinn will lead off and play center field against righty Stephen Strasburg. Hernandez moves down to the third spot in the order on Monday. Despite moving down in the order, Hernandez is […]

Roman Quinn Will Lead Off on Monday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Roman Quinn will lead off and play center field versus righty Stephen Strasburg on Monday. Quinn is hitting .357/.379/.518 since being recalled by the Phillies last month. Odubel Herrera will sit this one out since he does not have good numbers off Strasburg in his career. Strasburg did not pitch well against […]
