Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Kirby Yates (knee) has been activated from the 15-day Injured List on Tuesday. Yates has been sidelined all season long due to left knee inflammation.

Braden Montgomery Promoted to Triple-A, Entering Must-Stash Territory?

Chicago White Sox outfielder Braden Montgomery was promoted to Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday, according to Brooke Fletcher.

The former first-round pick from 2024 […]

Miami Marlins catcher Joe Mack has been called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday. In a somewhat shocking decision, Agustin Ramirez has been demoted, while Mack receives the call to The Show.

Detroit Pistons guard Kevin Huerter (groin) has been downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's Game 7 against the Orlando Magic. He came into the contest as questionable, but ultimately won't be able to play due to a strained left adductor.

Nikola Vucevic Could be Done in Boston

Boston Celtics center Nikola Vucevic didn't suit up at all during Saturday's Game 7 against the Philadelphia 76ers. The veteran center played limited minutes throughout the series.

Carlos Cortes is Quickly Gaining Traction

Athletics outfielder Carlos Cortes has quickly gained fantasy value with his red-hot start to the season. Over the last two weeks, Cortes is 20-for-40 at the plate with three home runs and seven RBI. During that span, Cortes was just shy of top-30 value, which is quite impressive. The only downside is that Cortes is […]

Noah Schultz is Gaining Value After Another Quality Outing

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Noah Schultz turned in another solid performance versus the San Diego Padres on Friday. The southpaw tossed six shutout innings, allowing two hits, three walks, and struck out two batters. Schultz has now allowed two earned runs or fewer in three of his first four career starts.

Cal Raleigh Dealing With General Soreness, Requires Imaging

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (soreness) was scratched ahead of Saturday's game against the Kansas City Royals. The team has been vague about the injury and is calling it general soreness.

New York Mets shortstop Ronny Mauricio (thumb) will be placed on the 10-day Injured List after suffering a fractured left thumb during Saturday's game.

Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Kenley Jansen (groin) is considered day-to-day after picking up an injury during his most recent outing on Wednesday. Tigers manager A.J.

Brandon Nimmo is Absent with Hamstring Issue

Texas Rangers outfielder Brandon Nimmo (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. This doesn't come as a surprise after Nimmo was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game due to a right hamstring injury. The Rangers are going to play it safe and hold out […]

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II (quad) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies.

George Springer has No New Damage to Foot

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (foot) was removed during Saturday's game after getting hit by a pitch on the left foot.
