Eric Lauer to Start on Monday

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Eric Lauer will take the mound against the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday.

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 young stud outfielder is well deserving of a promotion after crushing the ball at Double-A. In 26 games, Montgomery is slashing .316/.430/.621 with six home runs, 22 RBI, and 20 walks. The former first-round pick from 2024 […]

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Ranger Suarez (hamstring) was forced to make an early exit during Sunday's outing against the Houston Astros. Suarez tossed four scoreless innings before exiting the game due to what is being called right hamstring tightness. The severity of the injury is unknown, but Suarez should undergo further testing, so fantasy […]

Joe Mack Called Up, Offers Must-Start Value?

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. Mack is regarded as one of the team's top prospects and should get a legit shot to show off his skills. Mack hit […]

Kevin Huerter is Out for Game 7

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. His absence from the rotation should free up playing time for Duncan Robinson, Daniss Jenkins, […]

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.

Brandon Ingram is Downgraded to Doubtful for Game 7

Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram (heel) has been downgraded to doubtful ahead of Sunday's Game 7 against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's Game 7 against the Detroit Pistons.

Prielipp took the mound for his third start of the season against the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday. He tossed five innings, allowing three earned runs on two hits while striking out four batters. The rookie […]

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. The command still […]

Cal Raleigh Dealing with General Soreness, Required 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. Raleigh did need to undergo imaging, so this might be something that requires a stint on the Injured List. Mitch Garver drew the start […]

Ronny Mauricio is Placed on 10-Day Injured List

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.

Jacob Misiorowski is Optimistic to Make Next Start

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski (hamstring) appears to have avoided any significant injuries. The right-hander was forced to make an early exit from Friday's start against the Washington Nationals. He was pulled in the sixth inning with a no-hit bid due to right hamstring cramping. Brewers manager Pat Murphy expressed optimism that Misiorowski will […]

Kenley Jansen is Day-to-Day with Groin Injury

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. Hinch confirmed on Saturday that Jansen is sidelined at the moment with right groin/abdomen soreness. It doesn't sound like something that will require a trip to the Injured List, but […]

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 […]

Michael Harris II is Back in the Lineup on Saturday

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

Wyatt Langford is Shut Down for One Week

Texas Rangers outfielder Wyatt Langford (forearm) will miss at least one more week of action. He rejoined the team on Saturday ahead of their game against the Detroit Tigers. However, Langford won't play and will rest for a full week before being re-evaluated by the organization. He was on track to play on Saturday before […]

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. This is bad timing with Springer recently returning after missing time from a fractured left big toe. He underwent an MRI, which revealed no new damage to his left toe. Jays' manager John […]

Kyle Harrison is Excellent Streaming Option for Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Kyle Harrison has been surprisingly stellar on the mound this season. Harrison is coming off an outstanding performance where he struck out a career-high 12 batters in his start last Sunday. He tossed six innings, allowing one hit and zero earned runs while making the Pirates hitters whiff all game long. […]

Brandon Marsh Exits Early with Elbow Injury

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (elbow) was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game against the Miami Marlins. Marsh was pulled out of the game in the seventh inning due to a bruised right elbow. There aren't many more details on the situation, but it doesn't sound like this issue should force him […]

Connelly Early a Viable Streaming Option Ahead of Saturday's Start

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Connelly Early is putting together strong numbers on the mound right now. Through the first month of the season, Early owns a 2.84 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, and a 28:14 K:BB ratio across six starts. In his most recent outing, Early threw 6.2 innings, allowing two runs on four hits with […]

Kazuma Okamoto is Looking More Comfortable

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Kazuma Okamoto got off to a slow start to his big league career. The slugger appears to be finally turning a corner with the bat. Over the last two weeks, Okamoto is 11-for-45 at the plate with three home runs, 11 RBI, and six walks. The uptick in walks is […]

Agustin Ramirez Continues Struggling with the Bat

Miami Marlins catcher Agustin Ramirez hasn't been able to find much success at the plate recently. Over the last two weeks, Ramirez is 8-for-40 at the plate with one home run and three RBI. It has been an ugly stretch of play with Ramirez posting a .581 OPS over the last two weeks. Liam Hicks […]

George Kirby Allows Eight Hits in No-Decision

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher George Kirby didn't have his best stuff working for him during Wednesday's outing against the Minnesota Twins. Kirby allowed two earned runs on eight hits with five strikeouts across 5.2 innings of work during Wednesday's no-decision. He was on the hook for the loss until the Mariners' offense came alive late […]

Tyler Glasnow Continues Stellar Beginning to the Season

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow didn't have his best command during Wednesday's outing against the Miami Marlins. The right-hander issued a season-high six walks in what ended up being a no-decision for Glasnow. He was able to salvage his fantasy value by tying his season-high with nine strikeouts across 5.2 innings of work. […]

Gunnar Henderson Heating Up With the Bat

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson has been off to a slow start to the season, but appears to be coming around with the bat. The overall numbers aren't pretty with Henderson slashing .213/.287/.492 with 41 strikeouts through the first 29 games of the season. The good news is that the slugger has been turning the […]

Max Fried Looks to Keep Scoreless Streak Alive

New York Yankees starting pitcher Max Fried has been on another level lately. The southpaw had a rough outing against the Los Angeles Angels on April 16 and has been untouchable since then. Over his last two starts, Fried has thrown 14 straight scoreless innings with 14 strikeouts and four walks. He'll look to keep […]
