Tejay Antone To Undergo MRI

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Tejay Antone (elbow) was pulled early during Sunday's appearance against the New York Mets. The 30-year-old was only able to throw one pitch before exiting the game due to elbow discomfort. Following the game, Reds' manager David Bell said Antone will undergo an MRI on Monday. This is a tough blow […]

Adbert Alzolay Notches First Save

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Adbert Alzolay was handed the ball with a two-run lead against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. The right-hander gave up two singles to begin the inning. Luckily for fantasy managers, Alzolay was able to retire the next three batters and record his first save of the season. He's allowed one […]

Jose Abreu Falls In Batting Order

Houston Astros first baseman Jose Abreu has been dropped down in the lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Texas Rangers. The 37-year-old is regressing rapidly as he is having a horrible start to the season. So far, Abreu is slashing .105/.190/.105 with zero RBI and a 6/1 K/BB ratio in 21 plate appearances. On […]

Justin Foscue Remains On The Bench

Texas Rangers third baseman Justin Foscue remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Astros. The team recalled Foscue after Josh Jung (wrist) landed on the injured list on Tuesday. Since then, Foscue has been on the bench for the first three games. It seems odd that the Rangers would […]

Geraldo Perdomo Likely To Undergo MRI

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Geraldo Perdomo (knee) could be looking at missing additional time after suffering an injury during Wednesday's game. Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said that Perdomo is likely to undergo an MRI on his injured knee after experiencing additional discomfort on Friday. The hope was that this was a day-to-day issue, but it could […]

Nathaniel Lowe Takes Batting Practice

Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe (oblique) was able to take batting practice on Friday without any issues. Lowe continues to make progress on his right oblique strain that has sidelined him since the beginning of the season. The Rangers haven't given a timetable for his return to the field yet. The assumption is that […]

Connor Wong Absent On Friday

Boston Red Sox catcher Connor Wong remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The 27-year-old was expected to be the starting catcher to begin the season. However, Wong has only started three of the team's first eight games of the season. Instead of Wong, the Red Sox […]

Luis Rengifo Heads Back To The Bench

Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo is back on the bench ahead of Friday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The 27-year-old has started only two of the first seven games for the Halos this season. It's obvious that manager Ron Washington doesn't consider Rengifo an everyday player right now. It'll likely take an injury […]

Jusuf Nurkic Uncertain For Friday

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The big man is back on the injury report due to left calf soreness. If he sits, Drew Eubanks is expected to move into the starting five during Friday's game. He'd be worth looking at as a […]

Walker Kessler Unavailable On Friday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (nose) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The big man will miss this game after suffering a fractured nose during Tuesday's contest. He'll be joined by fellow forward John Collins (back) who continues to sit due to a lingering injury. Omer Yurtseven is […]

RJ Barrett Expected To Play On Friday

Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett (rest) is expected to return to the court ahead of Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Both Barrett and forward Kelly Olynyk (rest) both sat out of Wednesday's game. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned as it appeared to be a routine rest day. The return of these players should […]

Keldon Johnson Holds Questionable Tag For Friday

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Johnson has missed each of the last two games due to a left foot sprain. However, it appears Johnson has a chance of suiting up on Friday. If he plays, Johnson could move into the […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Ruled Out Friday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (quad) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This seems odd considering Jackson has been playing in basically every game since the middle of March. Possibly, the Grizzlies feel that it's time to give Jackson a rest day. Regardless, the absence of Jackson will […]

Mike Conley Removed From Injury Report

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley (rest) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The veteran guard was held out of Wednesday's game for rest purposes. However, Conley will return on Friday and is expected to have his normal role in the rotation. The Wolves are likely just […]

Gary Payton II Available On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (ankle) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. As expected, Payton will play after being listed as probable coming into this game. Payton should resume his normal role off the bench for Golden State. He normally plays minutes in the teens and doesn't offer enough […]

Josh Hart Cleared To Play On Thursday

New York Knicks guard Josh Hart (wrist) has been cleared to play ahead of Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Hart is ready to go after being listed as questionable coming into this game. He should resume his role in the starting five, but might not shoot as much due to the wrist issue. Hart […]

Mitchell Robinson Upgraded To Available

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) has been upgraded to available ahead of Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Robinson has been cleared to play after being listed as questionable coming into this game. The assumption is that Robinson will continue coming off the bench as the Knicks are trying to manage his workload. […]

Cade Cunningham Won't Play Friday

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Cunningham was a late scratch on Wednesday and will sit out Friday's game as well. The expectation is that Malachi Flynn will start again with Cunningham on the bench. He dropped 50 points during his last game. […]

Michael Busch Takes A Seat Versus Southpaw

Chicago Cubs infielder Michael Busch is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies. This marks the first time this season that Busch will take a seat. This makes sense to give Busch some rest against a left-handed starting pitcher. In his place, Garrett Cooper will cover first base and […]

Nolan Gorman Absent On Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Nolan Gorman (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Gorman will take a seat after making five straight starts to open the season. The expectation is that he'll be back in the lineup following this rest day. In his absence, Brendan […]

Masataka Yoshida Absent From Tuesday's Lineup

Boston Red Sox outfielder Masataka Yoshida (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Oakland Athletics. This appears to be a routine rest day for Yoshida who has been off to a rough start at the plate. Currently, Yoshida is batting .211 with two RBI in five games. The hope […]

Lars Nootbaar To Begin Rehab Assignment On Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Lars Nootbaar (ribs) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday. The left-handed outfielder will draw the start in center field for Tuesday's game with Triple-A Memphis. The 26-year-old is working his way back from two fractures in his ribcage that has sidelined him since early March. The expectation is that […]

Ryan Brasier Named As Tuesday's Opener

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Ryan Brasier will take the ball as the opener for Tuesday's game against the San Francisco Giants. The right-hander will get the starting nod in what appears to be a bullpen game for the Dodgers. The expectation is that Brasier will pitch one or two innings before handing it off […]

Jason Heyward Remains Out On Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Jason Heyward (back) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Francisco Giants. As expected, Heyward will sit out after undergoing additional testing earlier in the week due to his back stiffness. The organization is hopeful that this is only a day-to-day issue and Heyward can […]

Brandon Ingram Hopeful To Play Again This Season

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (knee) is hopeful to return to the court before the end of the season, according to head coach Willie Green. The plan was to shut down Ingram for two weeks, which means he'd be re-evaluated on Friday. It sounds like Ingram has been progressing well. He has reportedly been […]

Jeremy Sochan Won't Return This Season

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (ankle) is officially done for the rest of the season. The organization announced on Monday that Sochan will undergo arthroscopic surgery. This is a tough blow after Sochan suffered the injury during Friday's game. Cedi Osman started in his place on Sunday and figures to continue playing with the […]

Devin Vassell Done For The Season

San Antonio Spurs forward Devin Vassell (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of the season. Vassell was a late scratch on Sunday, and additional testing revealed a stress reaction in the third metatarsal. The Spurs didn't mention anything about surgery, but they've decided to shut down Vassell in what has become a lost […]

Jamal Murray Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The star guard has missed each of the last five games due to right knee inflammation. Reggie Jackson has been starting in his place and that should continue until Murray is back in the rotation. There […]

Dereck Lively II Tagged As Questionable For Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The big man was forced to exit early during Sunday's game due to right knee soreness. It appears the issue is still bothering him considering he holds a questionable tagging coming into this game. Daniel […]

Dario Saric Won't Play On Tuesday

Golden State Warriors forward Dario Saric (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It appears Saric is going to miss at least one more game due to right knee soreness. When healthy, Saric hasn't been a big factor in the rotation or fantasy basketball this season. He'll likely fall […]
