Matthew Boyd Throws Six Scoreless Innings

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Matthew Boyd was excellent on the mound during Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. The left-hander seemingly had no issues as he tossed six scoreless innings, allowing five hits, one walk, and striking out five batters in the win. I don't think too many people had Boyd throwing 11 scoreless […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. To Meet With Doctors Soon

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (knee) is scheduled to meet with doctors in Los Angeles in the next few days. After that, Acuna should begin a running program, which is the next step in his recovery process.

Eduardo Rodriguez Records 12 Strikeouts

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez had his swing-and-miss stuff going during Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals.

He allowed four […]

Jackson Holliday Posts Three-Hit Performance

Baltimore Orioles infielder Jackson Holliday continued his hot stretch at the plate during Saturday's game against the Kansas City Royals. It was a good day for Holliday who went 3-for-4 at the plate with two singles, a triple, and two RBI in the win. The 21-year-old finally appears to be putting it all together at […]

Trent Grisham Blasts Two Homers

New York Yankees outfielder Trent Grisham had his power bat working for him during Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Grisham took left-hander Bailey Falter deep in the third inning. He followed that up with a three-run shot off Falter in the fifth inning. Grisham has been on fire lately considering he's 6-for-11 at the […]

Red Sox-Cardinals Postponed On Saturday

The game between the Boston Red Sox and St. Louis Cardinals has been postponed on Saturday. After nearly a three-hour delay, they've decided to call the game due to poor weather. The plan is for the two teams to play a doubleheader on Sunday. The expectation is that Saturday's starters, Richard Fitts and Andre Pallante […]

Matt McLain Scratched On Saturday

Cincinnati Reds infielder/outfielder Matt McLain (hamstring) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. McLain was a late scratch on Friday due to a hamstring issue. He appeared in the game as a pinch-hitter, so the assumption was he'd be ready to return on Saturday. McLain was penciled […]

Yoan Moncada Won't Play On Saturday

Los Angeles Angels infielder Yoan Moncada (thumb) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. Moncada will take a seat after aggravating his thumb injury during Friday's contest. Right now, Moncada will only miss one game, but it wouldn't be shocking to see him end up on the injured […]

Luis Rengifo Playing On Saturday

Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. There was some concern that Rengifo would miss this game after exiting early on Friday due to hamstring tightness. Luckily, Rengifo only appears to have exited for precautionary reasons and will still suit up […]

Patrick Bailey Takes A Seat On Saturday

San Francisco Giants catcher Patrick Bailey (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Bailey has earned himself a day off after going 3-for-5 with two doubles in the extra inning win on Friday. However, that three-hit performance was the first time that Bailey had recorded a hit […]

Luke Raley Heads To The Bench

Seattle Mariners first baseman Luke Raley (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Raley has struggled against left-handed pitching in his career, so he'll take a seat against southpaw Robbie Ray on Saturday. In his absence, Cal Raleigh will slide over to the designated hitter spot […]

Jorge Polanco Resting On Saturday

Seattle Mariners infielder Jorge Polanco (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Polanco will head to the bench after a three-hit performance on Friday. In his absence, Dylan Moore will cover the hot corner and bat seventh versus left-hander Robbie Ray. Moore hits better against left-handed […]

Jordan Romano Shaky While Recording Save Against Dodgers

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Jordan Romano was called upon to hold a 3-0 lead against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. Romano got into trouble quickly as he walked Mookie Betts and gave up a two-run blast to Tommy Edman. He would put the tying run on base, but Romano was able to punch out […]

Julio Rodriguez Posts Three-Hit Performance

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez did a little bit of everything during Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

Corbin Carroll Blasts Two Homers

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll came ready to swing the bat during Friday's game against the Washington Nationals.

He finished his day 2-for-4 with […]

New York Mets starting pitcher Tylor Megill was incredibly successful on the mound during Friday's outing against the Toronto Blue Jays. The right-hander tossed 5.1 shutout innings, allowing two hits, three walks, and struck out four in the win. It's a shame he wasn't able to go deeper into the game, but the Mets bullpen […]

Wilyer Abreu Collects Three Hits

Boston Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu continued his impressive start to the season during Friday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Abreu wasted little time as he took starting pitcher Erick Fedde deep in the first inning. The fun didn't stop there for Abreu as he went 3-for-5 with two RBI in the victory. After […]

Shota Imanaga Impressive In Win

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Shota Imanaga was excellent on the mound during the home opener against the San Diego Padres on Friday. The left-hander was almost perfect outside of a solo home run to catcher Martin Maldonado in the third inning. He allowed four hits, one run, and registered four strikeouts over 7 1/3 innings […]

Charlie Morton Strikes Out 10 In Loss

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Charlie Morton had his swing-and-miss stuff going during Thursday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The veteran right-hander struck out 10 batters across five innings of work, which isn't easy against the Red Sox lineup. However, Morton also allowed six hits, five earned runs, and two walks during Thursday's outing. The […]

J.T. Realmuto Collects Three Hits

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto was a tough out at the plate all game long on Thursday. The veteran backstop would finish his day 3-for-3 with three singles in the win over the Colorado Rockies. Realmuto would also add on two steals, which are a little more rare at this stage in his career. Regardless, […]

Hunter Brown Registers Eight Strikeouts

Houston Astros starting pitcher Hunter Brown got off to a rough start during Thursday's game against the Minnesota Twins. The right-hander gave up two runs in the first inning, but settled down nicely after that. Brown would follow that rough first frame with five scoreless innings to record his second quality start of the season. […]

Christian Walker Mashes Homer In Win

Houston Astros first baseman Christian Walker has been off to a slow start with his new team, but was able to do some damage on Thursday. Walker helped his team get on the scoreboard with a solo shot off right-hander Joe Ryan in the second inning. His day wouldn't end there as he would also […]

Freddie Freeman Heading To Injured List

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman (ankle) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to March 31. The Dodgers were hopeful to avoid this, but Freeman wasn't progressing as they hoped from his right-ankle sprain. It's worth noting that the sprain is on the same ankle Freeman had surgically-repaired. That being said, […]

Zack Wheeler Records 10 Strikeouts

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler was excellent on the mound during Wednesday's start against the Colorado Rockies. The right-hander had seemingly no issues outside of Hunter Goodman's solo blast in the seventh inning. Wheeler tossed seven innings, allowing three hits, and striking out 10 batters in the 5-1 victory. To be fair, Wheeler did […]

Aroldis Chapman Earns First Save Of The Season

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman finally received a save opportunity as the team looked to end their four-game losing streak on Wednesday. The veteran southpaw was called upon to hold a three-run lead against the Baltimore Orioles tough lineup. It didn't go perfect for Chapman as he did walk one batter, but he […]

Garrett Crochet Works Eight Strong Innings

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Crochet showed that he earned every bit of that extension he received during Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. On Monday, Crochet signed a six-year, $170 million deal with Boston. It's already paying off for the Red Sox as Crochet tossed eight scoreless innings against the O's on Wednesday. […]

Rafael Devers Finally Delivers At The Plate

Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael Devers has been in a horrible slump to begin the season. He was hitless coming into Wednesday's game. Devers also became the first player in MLB history to strike out at the plate 15 times over the first five games of the season. Devers finally delivered at the plate […]

Xavier Edwards Collects Four Hits

Miami Marlins infielder Xavier Edwards came ready to hit at the plate during Wednesday's game against the New York Mets. Coming into this game, Edwards was 1-for-11 over his last three games, but made up for it on Wednesday. Edwards went 4-for-6 at the plate with one RBI and one steal in what ended up […]

Pete Alonso Comes Up Clutch

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso came up clutch for his team during Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins. Alonso kicked off the game with an RBI double in the first inning.
