Gary Payton II Ruled Out For Game 3

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's Game 3 against the Sacramento Kings.

That's a tough blow to the […]

Andrew Wiggins, Jordan Poole Available For Game 3

Golden State Warriors guards Andrew Wiggins (shoulder) and Jordan Poole (ankle) are both available for Thursday's Game 3 against the Sacramento Kings. Both players were uncertain to suit up coming into this game, but will give it a go here. That is good news for the Warriors with Draymond Green suspended for this contest. Wiggins […]

Javonte Williams Without Clear Timetable

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams (knee) is unlikely to be ready for the beginning of the 2023 season. The 23-year-old continues to work his way back from an ACL tear that he suffered in Week 4 of last season. Broncos general manager George Paton recently said that Williams will be back at some point, […]

Tyler Bass Signs Four-Year Extension

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass has agreed to a four-year extension with the organization. The deal is reportedly up to $21 million, but does include $12.9 million in guaranteed money.

Cowboys Exercise Option On Ceedee Lamb

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will be with the team through 2024. The organization exercised the fifth-year team option on the young wideout.

Rudy Gobert Questionable For Game 3

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is listed as questionable for Game 3 against the Denver Nuggets on Friday. The big man has been dealing with a lingering back issue lately, but continues to play through it. The Wolves are already down 0-2 in the series, so losing Gobert certainly wouldn't help. Karl-Anthony Towns would […]

Andrew Wiggins Could Miss Game 3

Golden State Warriors guard Andrew Wiggins (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 3 against the Sacramento Kings. It's worth noting that Wiggins has played in each of the last two games despite dealing with the shoulder issue. He finished with 22 points and five rebounds in 39 minutes of action in Game 2. […]

Gary Payton II Uncertain For Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 3 against the Sacramento Kings. This is not good timing with Andrew Wiggins (shoulder) and Jordan Poole (ankle) also on the injury report. During Game 2, Payton finished with 13 points and six rebounds in 27 minutes of action. His […]

Nikola Jokic Will Play In Game 2

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (wrist) will suit up for Wednesday's Game 2 matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. As expected, Jokic will be available despite dealing with a sprained wrist on his shooting arm. It would take a lot for the 28-year-old to sit out of a playoff game. This sounds like a minor injury, […]

Jose Alvarado Notches Second Save

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Jose Alvarado came in to close down Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The left-hander has been the Phillies best option out of the bullpen this season. He recorded his first save on Tuesday and earned his second during this game. The Phillies have Craig Kimbrel and Seranthony Dominguez as […]

Adam Ottavino Converts Third Save

New York Mets relief pitcher Adam Ottavino was called upon to shut the door during Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Chris Taylor Gets Back Into Action

Los Angeles Dodgers utility man Chris Taylor (side) was removed from Monday's game against the New York Mets. Afterwards, the organization said they planned to shut down Taylor for a few days. He wasn't in the lineup on Wednesday, but did get into action during the contest. Taylor pinch-ran for J.D. Martinez during the eighth […]

Madison Bumgarner Could Miss Next Start

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner is off to a horrendous beginning to the season. The left-hander was torched for seven runs over three innings of work during Wednesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. He holds a 10.26 ERA, 2.40 WHIP and 10/15 K/BB ratio across four starts this season. Following Wednesday's game, manager […]

Starling Marte Exits Early On Wednesday

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte exited early during Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Marte was replaced by Mark Canha in right field to open up the sixth inning. It's uncertain why Marte was taken out of the game because it didn't look like he suffered an injury. He was 0-for-3 before being […]

Christian Arroyo Available On Wednesday

Boston Red Sox infielder Christian Arroyo (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. He remains out of the lineup for the second straight game, but is available off the bench, according to manager Alex Cora. The 27-year-old suffered an injury during Monday's contest and hasn't played since then. Emmanuel Valdez will cover […]

Carlos Carrasco Placed On Injured List

New York Mets starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco (elbow) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to April 16. The right-hander is dealing with right elbow inflammation, which could possibly explain his struggles to begin the season Carrasco holds a 8.56 ERA and a 1.61 WHIP through 13 2/3 innings this season. In a […]

Corbin Carroll Sitting Out On Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Carroll was scratched from the lineup, but this is nothing more than a routine day off, according to manager Torey Lovullo. Fantasy managers shouldn't have to worry about Carroll dealing with any kind of injury. […]

Jacob deGrom Expected To Make Next Start

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (wrist) was forced to exit early during his start versus the Kansas City Royals on Monday. Luckily, the right-hander is feeling better now and is expected to make his next scheduled start.

Mookie Betts Placed On Paternity List

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts has been placed on the paternity leave list on Tuesday. He will be away from the team for at least two days due to the birth of his child. In a corresponding move, the Dodgers have recalled Luke Williams from Triple-A. The 26-year-old will provide some extra outfield depth […]

Hunter Greene Signs Six-Year Extension

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene has agreed to a long-term extension with the organization. The two sides have come to terms on a six-year, $53 million contract extension. This new deal will buyout the first two seasons of Greene's free agency years. It's worth noting that this deal also includes a $21 million club […]

Jeffrey Springs Expected To Undergo Tommy John Surgery

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Jeffrey Springs (elbow) was originally expected to miss roughly two months due to a nerve issue. Sadly, the left-hander received some unfortunate news on Tuesday. Springs is expected to require Tommy John surgery, which would end his 2023 campaign. It's a real shame as Springs was a legitimate breakout candidate. […]

Josh Hart Considered Doubtful For Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Josh Hart (ankle) is considered doubtful for Tuesday's Game 2 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 28-year-old exited early during Game 1 due to a left ankle sprain. He was able to get through a limited practice session on Monday. Despite that, Hart is considered doubtful for Tuesday's contest. His absence would […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Has Clean MRI

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) had his MRI results come back clean on Monday.

Michael Conforto Continues To Sit Out

San Francisco Giants outfielder Michael Conforto (calf) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Miami Marlins. The organization was hopeful that Conforto would return here. Sadly, he'll miss his third game in a row due to left calf tightness. The Giants haven't placed Conforto on the injured list yet, so hopefully […]

Michael Harris II Cleared For Batting Practice

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II (back) is expected to be cleared for batting practice on Monday or Tuesday. That is the last step before Harris is able to get back in the starting lineup. The 22-year-old has only played in seven games this season as he continues to deal with a lingering back issue. […]

Paul Goldschmidt Gets Day Off

St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Paul Goldschmidt (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The superstar slugger will get a well deserved rest day on Monday. Through 16 games, he's hitting .322 with one home run and eight RBI with two stolen bases. Brendan Donovan will serve as […]

Ketel Marte Returning To The Lineup

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte is back in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. The 29-year-old returns to the lineup after getting a routine rest day on Sunday. Hopefully, the day off will help Marte get back into the swing of things. Through 14 games, Marte is hitting .218 […]

Spencer Steer Considered Day-To-Day

Cincinnati Reds third baseman Spencer Steer (knee) was removed during the ninth inning of Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Manager David Bell said the MRI came back negative for structural damage on Steer's knee. That being said, the 25-year-old is considered day-to-day with right knee soreness. It doesn't sound like Steer is going to […]

Chas McCormick Remains Out On Monday

Houston Astros outfielder Chas McCormick (eye) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. He was removed from Friday's contest due to vision issues in his right eye. McCormick sat out a pair of games over the weekend, but it doesn't appear that he's ready to return yet. It's […]
