Giancarlo Stanton To Rest On Tuesday

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners.

Alek Manoah Tosses Seven Scoreless Innings

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah was outstanding during Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

This was a strong outing but fantasy managers shouldn't […]
