Kumar Rocker Optioned to Triple-A

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kumar Rocker has been optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Friday. This seemed likely to happen after the Rangers acquired Merrill Kelly at the trade deadline.

C.J. Kayfus Called up to Majors

Cleveland Guardians first baseman/outfielder C.J. Kayfus was called up to the MLB on Friday. The 23-year-old is well deserving of this promotion after mashing the ball in the minors. This season, Kayfus is slashing .300/.390/.539 with 14 home runs, 54 RBI, and four steals between Double-A and Triple-A this season. He's a former third-round pick […]

Randy Rodriguez Named New Giants Closer

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Randy Rodriguez has been named the closer going forward. The Giants were in need of another late inning option with Camilo Doval being traded to the New York Yankees on Thursday. Rodriguez makes the most sense for the closer role given how well he has pitched this season. He holds […]

Mike Trout Absent on Friday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (illness) is being held out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Trout has started in all 13 games since the All-Star break, so he could use a rest day. It sounds like a minor issue, so fantasy managers should consider Trout as […]

Khalil Shakir Exits Practice Early on Friday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir (ankle) appears to have suffered an injury during Friday's practice. Shakir was being examined by the trainers for a foot/ankle injury before leaving in the tunnel.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers (undisclosed) was on the sideline during Friday's practice. Bowers was attending the practice, but didn't participate at all.

Stefon Diggs Impressing in Camp

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (knee) has reportedly looked impressive early in training camp. The assumption was that Diggs would be eased into activities after suffering a torn ACL in Week 8 of last season. Despite that, Diggs has looked good with quick and efficient movements and an ability to make plays on […]

Chris Godwin Improving, Remains Without a Timetable

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (ankle) is reportedly moving around well during practices. It's nice to hear that Godwin is making progress after a brutal dislocation of his ankle sidelined him for a majority of last season. Despite that, the Bucs gave Godwin a three-year, $66 million extension this offseason. The Bucs aren't […]

Samuel Basallo, Dylan Beavers Could Play in MLB This Season

According to Roch Kubatko, Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias said he is hopeful that prospects Samuel Basallo and Dylan Beavers can play in the majors this season. The move to bring up Beavers would make sense given the O's just traded Cedric Mullins and Ramon Laureano. Beavers has been crushing the ball in Triple-A […]

Grayson Rodriguez Considering Having Surgery

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Grayson Rodriguez (elbow) is debating on having surgery, which would likely sideline him for the rest of the season. The right-hander got a second opinion on his elbow and might undergo surgery to remove bone chips from his elbow. The right-hander has been sidelined all season long due to lat and […]

Jakob Marsee Heading to Big Leagues

According to Robert Murray, outfielder Jakob Marsee is being called up by the Miami Marlins on Friday.

TJ Friedl Gets Placed on Restricted List

Cincinnati Reds outfielder TJ Friedl was reinstated from the paternity leave list on Friday. He has been away from the team since Tuesday while his family welcomes a baby into the world.

Wade Miley Transferred to 60-Day Injured List

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Wade Miley (forearm) has been transferred to the 60-day injured list on Thursday. This is a procedural move in order to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for Miguel Andujar. Miley has been sidelined since the middle of June due to a left flexor strain. The southpaw has been […]

Miguel Amaya Moved to 60-Day Injured List

Chicago Cubs catcher Miguel Amaya (oblique) has been transferred to the 60-day injured list on Thursday. This is just a procedural move to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for newly acquired Willi Castro. Amaya has been sidelined since late May due to an oblique issue. That being said, Amaya has already missed […]

Mikal Bridges Signs Extension with Knicks

New York Knicks forward Mikal Bridges signed a long-term extension with the organization on Thursday.

Taylor Rogers Heading to Cubs

The Chicago Cubs have acquired left-handed reliever Taylor Rogers from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday. Well, Rogers had a great run in Pittsburgh that lasted basically one day. The veteran left-hander was acquired by Pittsburgh in the Ke'Bryan Hayes trade with the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday. A day later, Rogers is headed to the North […]

Mike Yastrzemski Acquired by Royals

San Francisco Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski was traded to the Kansas City Royals on Thursday. The return for the Giants wasn't announced, but it's unlikely to be huge considering Yastrzemski is on an expiring deal. This season, Yastrzemski is slashing .231/.330/.355 with eight home runs and 28 RBI with six steals in 96 games with […]

Louis Varland, Ty France Traded to Blue Jays

Minnesota Twins reliever Louis Varland and infielder Ty France were traded to the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday. In exchange, the Twins will receive outfielder Alan Roden and left-hander Kendry Rojas. This isn't a blockbuster move, but the Jays will bulk up their depth for a postseason run. This season, France is slashing .251/.320/.357 with […]

Adrian Houser Moved to Rays

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Adrian Houser was traded to the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday. In exchange, the South Siders will receive corner infielder Curtis Mead from the Rays.

Dustin May Headed to Boston

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May was traded to the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. In exchange, the Dodgers will receive 2024 first-round pick James Tibbs III who was acquired in the Rafael Devers deal. May posted a 4.85 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, and a 97/43 K/BB ratio across 19 appearances with the Dodgers this […]

Bailey Falter Traded to Royals

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Bailey Falter was traded to the Kansas City Royals on Thursday. This isn't a blockbuster move, but Falter does add solid depth to the Royals rotation. The southpaw currently holds a 3.73 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, and a 70/39 K/BB ratio across 22 starts this season. Falter has been hot recently, allowing […]

Kenneth Walker III Likely to See Heavy Workload

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III has been a stud when healthy. However, the biggest problem has been keeping Walker on the field. He missed six games last year and only played 15 games in each of his first two seasons. The good news is, Walker is healthy coming into camp and has looked […]

Brenton Strange Getting TE1 Reps

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange is currently operating as the starter in this offense. The Jags don't have a ton of viable options at tight end right now after the departure of Evan Engram this offseason. It's also worth noting that the Jags have a few tight ends banged up, so Strange has stepped […]

Keaton Mitchell Looks Explosive in Practice

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell is unlikely to move very far up the depth chart during training camp. Recently, Ravens' offensive coordinator Todd Monken said Mitchell would be fighting for touches as the third back. He's not wrong as Derrick Henry is going to be the workhorse back with Justice Hill being able to […]

Colston Loveland Impressing Coaching Staff

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland has been making a big splash in training camp. The first-round rookie took first-team reps during Tuesday's 11-on-11 drills. Loveland has been impressive not just on the field, but off the field as well. Recently, head coach Ben Johnson praised Loveland by saying he's thinking more like a quarterback, […]

Caleb Ferguson Headed to Seattle

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Caleb Ferguson was traded to the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday. This is a nice under-the-radar move for Seattle to add extra depth to their bullpen. Ferguson holds a 3.74 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 34/14 K/BB ratio across 45 appearances with the Pirates this season. He figures to pitch in a setup […]
