Lawrence Butler Moves Into Leadoff Spot

Athletics outfielder Lawrence Butler will head into the leadoff spot in the lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Houston Astros. Butler is slashing .348/.348/.739 with one home run and four RBI over the last week. That being said, the A's will ride the hot hand and move Butler into the leadoff spot for this […]

Luis Robert Jr. Absent on Tuesday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. will head to the bench ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Mets. This appears to be a routine rest day for Robert who has started in 13 straight games. It has been an ugly start to the season for Robert who is slashing .191/.277/.309 through basically […]

Royce Lewis Takes A Seat on Tuesday

Minnesota Twins infielder Royce Lewis will head to the bench ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Lewis has started the last 10 games, so he could use a day off to rest. He's in the middle of an 0-for-18 slump, so maybe a day off will help him get back on track. […]

Shohei Ohtani Blasts League-Leading 19th Homer

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani didn't take long to deliver during Monday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. Ohtani smacked the first pitch he saw for a 378-foot home run in the opening frame versus right-hander Gavin Williams. He was busy on the base paths as Ohtani went 1-for-3 with a home run, two […]

Orlando Arcia Joins Rockies

The Colorado Rockies have reportedly signed free-agent shortstop Orlando Arcia on Monday. Arcia was released over the weekend after struggling with the Atlanta Braves to begin the season. The 30-year-old has seen his numbers take a dive since his All-Star season in 2023. It's unclear how he'll fit into the Rockies lineup, but they could […]

Adrian Houser Tosses Six Scoreless Innings

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Adrian Houser was once again excellent on the mound during Monday's game against the New York Mets.

On Monday, Houser tossed six scoreless innings, allowing three hits, and striking out six batters in […]

Francisco Lindor Delivers Walk-Off Sacrifice Fly

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor was the hero with the bat during Monday's game against the Chicago White Sox. For some reason, the Mets bats looked lost against right-hander Adrian Houser during this game. They were able to scratch across a run and tie the game until Lindor delivered a game-winning sacrifice fly in […]

Kevin Gausman Goes Eight Strong Innings

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Kevin Gausman has been extremely solid on the mound over his last two starts. On Monday, Gausman tossed eight innings, allowing one earned run on six hits, while striking out six batters in the win.

The right-hander failed to record a strikeout during his outing for the first time in 229 career starts. He threw 5 1/3 innings, allowing two earned runs on five hits and walked two batters. He somehow went the […]

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio saw his five-game hitting streak come to an end on Sunday. However, Chourio started a new streak during Monday's game versus the Boston Red Sox.

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo was once again sharp on the mound during Sunday's start against the Athletics.

Kris Bubic Looks Sharp in No-Decision

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Kris Bubic continued his excellent start to the season versus the Minnesota Twins on Sunday. The left-hander tossed seven innings, allowing one earned run on two hits, while striking out nine batters in the no-decision.

Seiya Suzuki Records Three Hits in Win

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki continued his hot stretch at the plate during Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Suzuki has been crushing the Reds in this series and that continued on Sunday. He went 3-for-4 at the plate with a double, home run, and three RBI in the win. Suzuki finished this series with […]

Daniel Palencia Records Second Save

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Daniel Palencia was asked to come on in the ninth inning with a three-run lead on Sunday. Palencia had an ugly outing against the Miami Marlins earlier in the week, but has looked better on the mound since then. On Sunday, Palencia tossed a scoreless ninth inning to earn his second […]

Mark Vientos Returns to The Lineup

New York Mets third baseman Mark Vientos (abdomen) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Vientos is back in the mix after missing the first two games of the series due to abdominal soreness. Luckily, it wasn't a serious injury as Vientos is back at third base […]

Brandon Nimmo Remains Out on Sunday

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (neck) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Nimmo will miss his second straight game after exiting early on Friday due to neck stiffness. This doesn't sound like something that will force Nimmo onto the injured list. Fantasy managers should consider […]

Michael King Heading To Injured List

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Michael King (shoulder) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 22. This comes a day after King was scratched from his start against the Atlanta Braves due to a shoulder issue. King is now being placed on the injured list due to right-shoulder inflammation. This is […]

Hyeseong Kim Remains Out on Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Hyeseong Kim is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Mets. Kim remains out of the starting lineup for the fourth straight game. He doesn't appear to be dealing with any injuries, so this looks like it's matchup related. Instead, the Dodgers will elect to […]

Mike Trout to Run The Bases This Week

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (knee) appears to be on the verge of returning to the lineup. Trout is scheduled to run the bases this week, which is the final hurdle for him before he can get back into game action. This is great news for fantasy managers who have been without Trout since […]

Shohei Ohtani Throws Live Batting Practice

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani (elbow) took the mound for a live batting practice session on Sunday. Ohtani threw 23 pitches and reportedly touched 97 mph on his fastball.

Byron Buxton Traveling For Road Trip

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (concussion) remains in concussion protocol, but he'll travel with the team for their upcoming 10-game road trip that begins on Monday. Buxton has been sidelined since May 15, but appears to be on the verge of returning. He is ramping up his activities, but Buxton still needs to clear concussion […]

Zach Neto Resting on Sunday

Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. This is a well deserved rest day for Neto who has started in 33 straight games. Neto has been extremely productive with the bat, which makes it difficult for the Halos to take him out […]

Logan O'Hoppe Sitting Out on Sunday

Los Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. This appears to be a regular rest day for O'Hoppe who has started six straight games heading into Sunday's contest. During that stretch, O'Hoppe went 10-for-26 with four homers and seven RBI. In his absence, […]

J.K. Dobbins a Fit For Bears?

Free-agent running back J.K. Dobbins remains unsigned as we head towards June. It's worth noting that the Los Angeles Chargers placed an unrestricted free agent tender on Dobbins. That means, the Chargers have exclusive negotiating rights if Dobbins remains unsigned in late July. That being said, Dobbins will likely try to sign somewhere before then […]

Will Howard Open to Learning From Aaron Rodgers

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Will Howard recently gave some thoughts on his new organization. Howard said that the Steelers need a new gritty guy like they had with Ben Roethlisberger. It sounds like Howard wants to be that guy, but it's unclear if he'll get the chance. There has been plenty of speculation throughout the offseason […]

Aaron Rodgers Speaks Regarding Future

Free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers continues to be vague about where he wants to play, but at least addressed it on Saturday. A fan asked Rodgers if he would consider playing for the Chicago Bears, which he said no. The long-time Green Bay Packers quarterback has no interest in backing up Caleb Williams. However, Rodgers said […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Smacks Another Homer

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. made some noise when he hit a solo home run on the first pitch he saw during his season debut on Friday. It was a beautiful sight to see after Acuna battled his way back to the field from a year-long recovery from an ACL tear in his left […]

Luis Robert Jr. Collects Three Hits

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. did a little bit of everything during Saturday's game against the Texas Rangers. Robert has been off to an ugly start to the season, but maybe this good performance will help him get back on track. On Saturday, Robert went 3-for-5 with a pair of doubles, one RBI, […]

Max Fried Excellent on Saturday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Max Fried was extremely sharp on the mound during Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies.

Aaron Judge Blasts 18th Homer

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge put his team on the board early during Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies.
