De'Andre Hunter Considered Day-To-Day

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) was held out of Friday's game and won't suit up for Sunday's contest against the Dallas Mavericks. The team announced that Hunter is day-to-day after an MRI revealed a bone bruise and muscle strain in his left knee. The Hawks don't believe this is going to be a long […]

Kyle Lowry Available On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran guard is back after sitting out on Wednesday, which was the second game of a back-to-back set. Lowry has been coming off the bench since he returned from injury in mid-March. It's worth noting that he's only played […]

Kyle Bradish To Make Season Debut On Monday

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Bradish is scheduled to make his season debut against the Texas Rangers on Monday. He'll be the team's fourth starter with Tyler Wells getting the nod as the fifth starter on Tuesday. Bradish was hit-or-miss during his outings in spring training. He does have the stuff to succeed in the […]

Max Fried Will Be Placed On Injured List

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried (hamstring) will require a trip to the injured list, according to manager Brian Snitker. The left-hander suffered a left hamstring strain during Thursday's contest. It sounds like the team plans to wait until Fried's next scheduled start before officially placing him on the injured list. Bryce Elder or Ian […]

Ranger Suarez To Throw Again On Monday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Ranger Suarez (elbow) threw a bullpen session on Friday. Afterwards, Suarez felt fine and is scheduled to throw another bullpen session on Monday. The 27-year-old was placed on the injured list earlier this week due to a left elbow strain. It's going to take multiple weeks for Suarez to get back […]

Mike Moustakas Making Season Debut

Colorado Rockies third baseman Mike Moustakas is set to make his season debut against the San Diego Padres on Saturday. The left-handed slugger sat out the first two games of the regular season. Now, Moustakas will bat seventh and serve as the designated hitter against right-hander Michael Wacha. The 34-year-old didn't offer much upside with […]

Kyle Lewis To Leadoff On Saturday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kyle Lewis is set to bat leadoff against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday. He'll serve as the designated hitter versus left-hander Clayton Kershaw. Lewis is off to a hot start to the season after hitting a go-ahead two-run home run during Friday's contest. The former Rookie of the Year was acquired […]

Robbie Ray Placed On Injured List

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Robbie Ray (hip) has been placed on the 15-day injured list. This is bad news after Ray struggled during his season debut. The left-hander allowed five runs (three earned) with four hits and five walks allowed on Friday. As of now, the Mariners haven't announced how long Ray is going to […]

Ryan Neal Becomes Free Agent

The Seattle Seahawks have withdrawn the restricted free agent tender from safety Ryan Neal. The 27-year-old is now a free agent after being tendered by the team in mid-March. It's uncertain why the team decided to move on from Neal. Last season, he recorded 66 tackles, eight passes defended, and one interception in 14 games […]

Pharaoh Brown Joins Colts

Free-agent tight end Pharaoh Brown has signed a one-year deal with the Indianapolis Colts. The 28-year-old has bounced between the Houston Texans and Cleveland Browns since 2019. Over his career, Brown has 51 receptions, 478 yards, and two touchdowns in 55 games. He'll join Mo Alie-Cox, Kylen Granson, and Jelani Woods in the tight end […]

Darrynton Evans To Meet With Colts

Free-agent running back Darrynton Evans is scheduled to meet with the Indianapolis Colts this week. The 24-year-old was drafted by the Tennessee Titans in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Sadly, injuries and a lack of opportunity have held Evans back early in his career. Through 12 games, Evans has 30 carries for […]

Laquon Treadwell Working Out For Cowboys

Free-agent wide receiver Laquon Treadwell worked out for the Dallas Cowboys on Friday. It appears the Cowboys aren't done adding to their wideout room after acquiring Brandin Cooks earlier this month. Treadwell was a former first rounder of the Minnesota Vikings in 2016. He hasn't really done much since entering the league. Treadwell posted his […]

Oscar Gonzalez Starting On Friday

Cleveland Guardians outfielder Oscar Gonzalez moves into the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Seattle Mariners. It was a bit surprising to see Gonzalez on the bench for Opening Day. Now, the 25-year-old will start in right field and bat sixth versus left-hander Robbie Ray. Fellow outfielder Will Brennan started in place on Gonzalez […]

Nelson Cruz Batting Cleanup On Friday

San Diego Padres designated hitter Nelson Cruz is in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The 42-year-old sat out on Opening Day as Matt Carpenter served as the DH for that game. Now, Cruz gets the starting nod and is batting cleanup against left-hander Kyle Freeland on Friday. It's uncertain if […]

Mike Moustakas Remains Out Again

Colorado Rockies third baseman Mike Moustakas is out of the starting lineup once again for Friday's game against the San Diego Padres. The left-handed slugger sat out on Opening Day, which led some to believe he'd start against right-hander Nick Martinez on Friday. That is not the case as Elehuris Montero remains at third base […]

Michael Brantley Takes Batting Practice

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley (shoulder) was able to take batting practice ahead of Friday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The veteran outfielder continues to work his way back from offseason shoulder surgery. The organization hasn't given a clear timetable for Brantley. That being said, the expectation is that he'll be ready to return […]

Andrew Vaughn Sitting On Friday

Chicago White Sox first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Houston Astros. The 24-year-old has certainly earned the right to start everyday. On Thursday, Vaughn hit a two-run double in the ninth inning to help the White Sox get the win. Possibly, manager Pedro Grifol just […]

Lance McCullers Jr. Is Making Progress

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (forearm) is pain-free, according to Astros general manager Dana Brown. The right-hander continues to work his way back from a low-grade forearm strain. He was only able to play catch during camp, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him back anytime soon. McCullers was placed on the 15-day injured […]

Charlie Culberson Joins Braves

The Atlanta Braves have signed infielder Charlie Culberson to a minor-league deal. The 33-year-old was released by the Tampa Bay Rays a week ago. He'll make his return to Atlanta after spending 2018-2020 with the team. Since then, Culberson has served in a bench role with the Texas Rangers. The expectation is that he'll head […]

Cesar Hernandez Signs With Mariners

The Seattle Mariners have signed free-agent infielder Cesar Hernandez to a minor-league deal. The 32-year-old was recently released by the Detroit Tigers after failing to make the Opening Day roster. The expectation is that Hernandez will serve as organizational depth for Seattle. Last season, Hernandez hit .248/.311/.318 with a .629 OPS, one home run, 34 […]

Jon Berti To Start At Shortstop

Miami Marlins infielder Jon Berti will start at shortstop and bat ninth during Friday's game against the New York Mets. The Marlins have decided to shake up their lineup with left-hander David Peterson on the mound against them. Joey Wendle started Opening Day, but will take a seat for at least one game. Berti doesn't […]

Giants Sign Gary Sanchez

The San Francisco Giants have signed free-agent catcher Gary Sanchez to a minor-league deal. The 30-year-old didn't have much of a market this offseason, but he has finally found a home. Sanchez will report to the team's spring training complex in Arizona before joining a minor league affiliate. It's worth noting that his deal does […]

Jarrett Allen Listed As Doubtful For Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (groin) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the New York Knicks. The 24-year-old is in danger of missing his second game in a row due to a strained right groin. Isaac Okoro (knee) joined Allen on the sideline for Tuesday's game. That resulted in Caris LeVert and Lamar […]

Lauri Markkanen Won't Play On Friday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Markkanen will miss his second game in a row due to a left hand contusion. His absence should mean that Simone Fontecchio moves into the starting five. However, Luka Samanic played more minutes than Fontecchio during their last […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander To Remain Out On Friday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This marks the third game in a row that Gilgeous-Alexander will miss due to a left ankle sprain. The Thunder do have a chance at the playoffs, so the hope is that Gilgeous-Alexander can return soon. Isaiah […]

Myles Turner Uncertain For Friday

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The big man has missed the last three games due to back soreness. Now, Turner pops up on the injury report with ankle soreness. Head coach Rick Carlisle recently mentioned that Tyrese Haliburton and Turner could be […]

Buddy Hield Removed From Injury Report

Indiana Pacers guard Buddy Hield (illness) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran guard has missed each of the last two games due to a non-COVID related illness. Hield is expected to return on Friday and play a bigger role in the rotation. Head […]

Nikola Jokic Won't Suit Up On Thursday

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The big man will sit out the first game of the back-to-back due to a minor calf issue. The Nuggets don't want to risk anything with the playoffs starting soon. The expectation is that Jokic will be […]

Kawhi Leonard Could Miss Friday's Game

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (personal) is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He sat out Wednesday's game due to personal reasons, so this could be a multi-game absence for Leonard. Terance Mann would likely be asked to move into the starting five. He'd have increased value and become a much […]

LeBron James Uncertain For Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The superstar forward made his return to the court on Wednesday. He looked good in that contest and he was able to play 31 minutes without any issues. Despite that, the Lakers are listing James as questionable […]
