Brendan Donovan Scratched on Saturday

Seattle Mariners infielder/outfielder Brendan Donovan (undisclosed) has been scratched ahead of Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. Donovan played the entire game on Friday and didn't appear to suffer any injuries. It's unclear why he has been pulled out of the lineup, but the Mariners should provide more information soon. In the meantime, Leo […]

Ryan O'Hearn Exits Early on Saturday with Quad Issue

Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman Ryan O'Hearn (quad) was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. O'Hearn exited in the fourth inning of this game due to right quad discomfort. Before exiting, O'Hearn was hitless in his lone plate appearance. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if he sits out of […]

Heliot Ramos is Out with Quad Injury

San Francisco Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos (quad) is out of the starting lineup against the Athletics on Saturday. This doesn't come as a surprise after Ramos was forced to exit early during Friday's game due to right quad tightness. The Giants are going to play it safe and hold Ramos out for at least Saturday's […]

Clay Holmes is Officially Placed on Injured List

New York Mets starting pitcher Clay Holmes (leg) has officially been placed on the 15-day Injured List on Saturday. This news was coming after Holmes suffered a fractured right fibula during Friday's start. The right-hander won't require surgery, but he's still expected to miss significant time. Holmes will be shut down from all baseball activities […]

Corey Seager Absent With Back Spasms on Saturday

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (back) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Houston Astros due to back spasms. Seager was held out of Friday's contest as well, but that was presumed to be a rest day in the midst of a 0-for-27 skid at the plate. It's unclear if […]

Taj Bradley Throws Successful Bullpen Session

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Taj Bradley (pectoral) threw a successful 20-pitch bullpen session on Friday. This is the first time that Bradley has taken the mound since going down with right pectoral inflammation on May 6. The expectation is that he'll throw another bullpen session at some point next week. After that, Bradley should progress […]

Brandon Woodruff Feels Good After Bullpen Session

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) reportedly felt good after throwing a 25-pitch bullpen session on Thursday. Assuming nothing changes in the next few days, Woodruff will throw another bullpen session on Monday. Afterwards, he'll likely throw a simulated game before possibly rejoining the Brewers rotation. It's unclear if he'll require a minor league […]

Matthew Boyd is Making Solid Progress

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Matthew Boyd (knee) is reportedly feeling good physically and plans to throw off the mound on Saturday. If everything goes well, Boyd will throw a bullpen session sometime next week. This is great news considering Boyd underwent meniscus surgery on his left knee last week. The recovery timetable is about six […]

Blake Snell Heads to 15-Day Injured List

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Blake Snell (elbow) was placed on the 15-day Injured List on Friday. Ugh, this sucks for fantasy managers who just got Snell back. The southpaw was scratched from his scheduled start on Friday, and now we see why that happened. Snell heads to the shelf due to loose bodies in […]

River Ryan Could Join the Starting Rotation

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher River Ryan (hamstring) is making a rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday. Recently, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that there is a slim possibility that Ryan joins the starting rotation at some point. It's going to take some time as the Dodgers want to slowly build up Ryan. […]

Kevin Huerter is Available for Game 6

Detroit Pistons guard Kevin Huerter (adductor) is available to play for Friday's Game 6 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Huerter made his return to the court after a seven-game absence on Wednesday. He only logged in three minutes of playing time during Wednesday's overtime defeat. It's unlikely that Huerter sees much of an increase in playing […]

Duncan Robinson is Returning for Game 6

Detroit Pistons guard Duncan Robinson (back) is available to play ahead of Friday's Game 6 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Robinson is back in the mix after being forced to miss Wednesday's Game 5 defeat. Daniss Jenkins moved into the starting five with Robinson unable to go in the last game. He played over 40 minutes, […]

Caris LeVert is Cleared for Game 6 on Friday

Detroit Pistons guard Caris LeVert (heel) is available to play ahead of Friday's Game 6 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. As expected, LeVert is cleared to play after being listed as questionable on the injury report. He figures to only play minutes in the 20s with Kevin Huerter and Duncan Robinson both active for this game. […]

OG Anunoby Practices in Full on Friday

New York Knicks forward OG Anunoby (hamstring) was a full participant during Friday's practice session. This is an encouraging sign after Anunoby missed the final two games of the previous series against the Philadelphia 76ers. He continues to battle a right hamstring issue, but is optimistic that he'll be ready for Game 1 of the […]

Terrence Shannon Jr. is Tagged as Questionable for Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Terrence Shannon Jr. (head) is a late addition to the injury report ahead of Friday's Game 6 against the San Antonio Spurs. It's unclear when he suffered the injury, but Shannon is in danger of missing this game due to a head contusion. With Anthony Edwards healthy now, Shannon has seen a […]

Seiya Suzuki Cooling Off After Hot Stretch

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki was on an unbelievable run at the plate, but he has cooled off lately. Over the last week, Suzuki is 2-for-17 at the plate with one home run, two RBI, and four walks. The veteran slugger is hitless over his last four games, as it appears Suzuki is coming back […]

Chase DeLauter is Still Looking for Power

Cleveland Guardians outfielder Chase DeLauter has been posting decent results with the bat, but continues searching for power. Over the last month, DeLauter has gone 27-for-93 at the plate with one home run, 14 RBI, and 13 walks. His ability to draw walks is encouraging, but the lack of power has certainly been frustrating for […]

Ryne Nelson is Gaining Traction After Another Strong Outing

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Ryne Nelson is becoming an intriguing fantasy pickup after posting back-to-back strong outings. On May 8, Nelson tossed 6.2 innings, allowing one earned run while striking out seven batters in a no-decision against the New York Mets. The right-hander continued that success during Wednesday's outing against the Texas Rangers. Nelson threw […]

Max Meyer Keeps Posting Encouraging Numbers

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Max Meyer finished with mixed results during his most recent outing against the Minnesota Twins. Meyer tossed 5.2 innings, allowing four earned runs on seven hits while striking out nine batters in the win. The four earned runs are the most that Meyer has allowed in a single start this season. […]

Nick Kurtz Heating Up in May

Athletics first baseman Nick Kurtz was in a bit of a cold spell at the plate until a few days ago. Kurtz was still hitting for a decent average, but was held without a home run for 15 straight games. That changed on Wednesday when he blasted a grand slam during the A's win over […]

Kevin Huerter is Cleared to Return for Game 5

Detroit Pistons guard Kevin Huerter (adductor) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's Game 5 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Huerter is back in the mix for the first time since Game 4 of the first-round series against the Orlando Magic. His return to the rotation comes at a good time with Duncan Robinson (back) ruled […]

Caris LeVert is Available for Game 5 on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Caris LeVert (heel) is available to play ahead of Wednesday's Game 5 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is good news for the Pistons, with Duncan Robinson (back) ruled out for this game. LeVert figures to be asked to take on a larger role offensively with Robinson sitting out on Wednesday. LeVert finished […]

Duncan Robinson is Out for Game 5

Detroit Pistons guard Duncan Robinson (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is a tough blow to the Pistons. He was questionable coming into this game, but will ultimately sit out due to lower back soreness. His absence should mean larger roles for Daniss Jenkins, Caris LeVert, and […]

Keegan Murray Undergoes Ankle Procedure

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (ankle) underwent an arthroscopic procedure to remove loose bodies in his left ankle, according to James Ham. Murray suffered multiple ankle issues throughout the season, so hopefully this will help him moving forward. This procedure will keep him sidelined for roughly 6-8 weeks, so it shouldn't impact his availability for […]

Josh Giddey Undergoes Ankle Surgery

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) recently underwent a successful right ankle arthroscopy, according to the organization on Wednesday. Giddey will be shut down from basketball activities for quite some time. He's expected to resume activities in roughly three months. This timetable should mean that Giddey is ready to go in time for training camp. […]

Kevin Huerter to Remain Sidelined in Game 4

Detroit Pistons guard Kevin Huerter (adductor) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's Game 4 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Huerter remains on the sideline and hasn't appeared in a contest since Game 4 of the first-round series. It's unclear when Huerter will return, with him being listed as questionable coming into this game. His continued […]

Caris LeVert is Cleared for Game 4 on Monday

Detroit Pistons guard Caris LeVert (heel) has been upgraded to available ahead of Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. LeVert was questionable coming into this game due to a right heel contusion. He played 17 minutes on Saturday, finishing with six points, four rebounds, and four steals in the loss. The expectation is that LeVert […]

Thomas Bryant is Available to Play in Game 4

Cleveland Cavaliers center Thomas Bryant (back) is cleared to suit up for Monday's Game 4 against the Detroit Pistons. Bryant was uncertain to play in this one due to back spasms. It doesn't appear to be significant enough to keep Bryant out of action. He hasn't played a significant role in the rotation throughout the […]

Victor Wembanyama Won't be Suspended Following Game 4 Ejection

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama won't face further discipline following his ejection from Sunday's Game 4. Wembanyama was ejected from Sunday's game after receiving a Flagrant 2 foul for elbowing Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid in the head. The superstar center won't face a fine or any kind of suspension. He only played 12 […]

Mookie Betts is Officially Back on Monday

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts (oblique) was activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Monday's game against the San Francisco Giants. As expected, Betts is back after a five-week absence due to a strained oblique. Before going down, Betts was struggling with only five hits during his first eight games of the season. […]
