Larry Nance Jr. To Miss Wednesday's Contest

New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's playoff contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nance was able to play 17 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, it appears the left ankle issue is still bothering Nance. His absence should open up additional playing time for […]

Drey Jameson Impressive On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Drey Jameson was recently shifted from the bullpen to the starting rotation. The loss of veteran right-hander Zach Davies (oblique) has made an opening for Jameson in the starting rotation. The 25-year-old took full advantage of that during Wednesday's outing. He threw four shutout innings during Wednesday's win over the Milwaukee […]

Adam Oller To Start On Thursday

Oakland Athletics pitcher Adam Oller will make the start against the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday. The 28-year-old has made two relief appearances this season, but will be asked to make a start on Thursday.

Darin Ruf Joining Giants On Wednesday

The San Francisco Giants have selected the contract of infielder Darin Ruf from Triple-A Sacramento.

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Taylor Walls (elbow) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The switch-hitting infielder is back after missing the last four games due to discomfort in his elbow. He'll cover third base and bat seventh versus lefty Chris Sale on Wednesday. Fantasy managers can probably […]

Adam Ottavino Records First Save

New York Mets relief pitcher Adam Ottavino was asked to take the mound in the ninth inning during Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Normally, David Robertson is the closer in New York, but that was not the case on Wednesday. Robertson pitched in part of the seventh inning and threw a scoreless frame […]

Yandy Diaz Playing On Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Yandy Diaz (shoulder) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Boston Red Sox.

He'll bat leadoff […]

Thairo Estrada Sitting Out On Tuesday

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fantasy managers shouldn't need to worry as this appears to be a routine rest day for Estrada. He's been off to a hot start slashing .324/.359/.459 with a homer, four RBI and a […]

Joey Gallo Taking Swings On Tuesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Joey Gallo (side) doesn't believe he'll require a trip to the injured list.

The 29-year-old remains out on Tuesday and hasn't played since being pulled out early during Friday's contest. Possibly, the Twins […]

Kyle Hendricks To Throw On Wednesday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks (shoulder) is scheduled to throw two innings of batting practice sessions on Wednesday.

Avisail Garcia Remains Out On Tuesday

Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 31-year-old hasn't played since being pulled out of Sunday's contest due to left hamstring soreness. The team hasn't placed Garcia on the injured list yet, so that's a good sign. Hopefully, Garcia only needs a […]

Ramon Laureano Sitting Out Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Ramon Laureano (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The right-handed slugger will get a well deserved day off after playing in the first 10 games to begin the season. He's hitting .250 with two home runs and four RBI in that span. Brent Rooker […]

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Andrew McCutchen (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Houston Astros.

Jaylen Nowell Trending In Right Direction

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jaylen Nowell (knee) is trending in the right direction for Tuesday's play-in matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 23-year-old has missed the last six games due to a lingering knee issue. He has only played 44 total minutes since February 24, but that was partly due to the fact that the […]

Kyle Lowry Could Miss Tuesday's Game

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (knee) is currently listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. The veteran guard recently mentioned that he might undergo surgery on his knee this offseason. That being said, this injury is still clearly bothering the 37-year-old guard. The Heat have been cautious with Lowry lately as he's […]

Wizards Want To Keep Kyle Kuzma

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma is most likely going to be a free agent this summer. He does have a $13 million player option for next season, but he'll likely decline that. Kuzma had a breakout season in Washington this year, so he should be able to easily get more than $13 million per season […]

Wizards Want To Re-Sign Kristaps Porzingis

Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis is likely to become a free agent this summer. The big man has a player option for next season, but it's uncertain if he'll accept it.

Jarred Kelenic To Sit Out Versus Left-Hander

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jarred Kelenic (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Chicago Cubs. As expected, Kelenic will get the night off with left-hander Drew Smyly on the mound for the Cubbies. The 23-year-old appears to be in a platoon role, but that's fine as long as he continues to […]

Masataka Yoshida Returning To The Lineup

Boston Red Sox outfielder Masataka Yoshida (rest) is back in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The left-handed slugger missed his first game of the season on Sunday for rest purposes. Now, Yoshida will return to the lineup and play left field while batting cleanup versus lefty Jalen Beeks. The […]

C.J. Cron Back In The Lineup On Monday

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (illness) is back in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Andrew Painter Plays Catch On Monday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Andrew Painter (elbow) was able to play catch on Monday. This was the first time that the right-hander has been able to throw since suffering a right elbow sprain at the beginning of March. The Phillies have been extremely cautious with their top pitching prospect. He'll likely be eased into bullpen […]

Tyler O'Neill Gets The Day Off

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The 27-year-old was recently benched for lack of hustle, but this appears to be a routine rest day. Regardless, Dylan Carlson will cover center field and bat eighth versus righty German Marquez on Monday. Fantasy […]

MJ Melendez To Miss Monday's Game

Kansas City Royals catcher MJ Melendez (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Texas Rangers. This appears to be a routine day off for the left-handed slugger. The 23-year-old could certainly use it after slashing .152/.263/.303 with one homer, two RBI and a league-leading 15 strikeouts to begin the season. […]

Adam Duvall Has Broken Wrist

Boston Red Sox outfielder Adam Duvall (wrist) underwent X-rays on Monday after suffering an injury during Sunday's contest. The testing revealed that Duvall has a broken wrist, which means he'll be out for the foreseeable future. The organization is uncertain if Duvall is going to need surgery on his wrist. That being said, his timetable […]

Josh Jung Resting On Monday

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Kansas City Royals. It's a well deserved day off after Jung played in the first nine games to begin the season. He's slashing .229/.270/.429 with a pair of homers and five RBI right now. The 25-year-old should […]
