Owen Caissie is Gaining Traction with Hot Start

Miami Marlins outfielder Owen Caissie is off to a hot start to begin his Marlins career. The 23-year-old was traded to Miami this offseason in a deal that sent Edward Cabrera to the Chicago Cubs.

Luis Gil is Set to Return to Rotation on April 10

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Gil is set to make his season debut on Friday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Gil will get the ball for the first time this season on April 10. He opened the season in the minors to get his arm stretched out. The 27-year-old has great strikeout potential, but […]

Logan Henderson is Starting Second Game of Doubleheader

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Logan Henderson will draw the start during the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Kansas City Royals. Henderson was called up as the 27th player for this twin-billing. The 24-year-old posted promising numbers during his time with the Brewers last season. He registered a 1.78 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and a […]

Tyler Fitzgerald Traded to Blue Jays

San Francisco Giants infielder Tyler Fitzgerald has been traded to the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for cash considerations. Fitzgerald was recently designed for assignment by the Giants, but quickly found a new home in Toronto. The 28-year-old provides solid depth given his defensive versatility. Fitzgerald posted a breakout campaign in 2024 with a .280/.334/.497 […]

Seattle Mariners infielder Brendan Donovan (leg) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Donovan is being held out of this game after exiting Friday's contest due to leg discomfort. The Mariners haven't given a clear timetable on Donovan's return, but hopefully it'll be a short absence. While […]

Byron Buxton Absent from Saturday's Lineup

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (forearm) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. This doesn't come as a shock after Buxton exited early during Friday's game after getting hit by a pitch on the forearm. The X-rays came back negative, but the Twins are going to play […]

Juan Soto Removed with Calf Tightness

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto (calf) was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Soto reached on base with a single in the first inning.

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Gregory Soto was called upon to close the door against the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. Soto was tasked with holding a two-run lead versus the tough Orioles offense.

Casey Schmitt Gets Scratched with Back Tightness

San Francisco Giants infielder Casey Schmitt (back) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the New York Mets. Schmitt has been pulled from the lineup due to back tightness. This doesn't seem like something that will sideline him long, so fantasy managers should consider Schmitt as day-to-day. Jerar Encarnacion will […]

Jorge Polanco Suffers Setback with Achilles Injury

New York Mets infielder Jorge Polanco (Achilles) reportedly suffered a setback in his recovery from his left Achilles tendinitis. With that being said, Polanco is being held out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (forearm) was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Buxton was pulled out of the game after taking a fastball to the right forearm in the seventh inning. Luckily, the X-rays were negative, so Buxton is considered day-to-day with a forearm contusion. Before […]

Brandon Ingram is Back on Friday

Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram (heel) is back on the court ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Ingram is back in the starting five after sitting out Wednesday's game due to left heel inflammation.

Brooklyn Nets forward Danny Wolf (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of the regular season, according to head coach Jordi Fernandez. Wolf hasn't played since suffering an ankle injury during a game on March 22. The Nets are sitting at 18 wins coming into Friday's game, so there's little reason to play anyone […]

Michael Porter Jr. Won't Return This Season

Brooklyn Nets forward Michael Porter Jr. (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, according to head coach Jordi Fernandez. Porter has missed the last 11 games and hasn't suited up for a game since March 10. The Nets are sitting at 18-58 on the season with six games remaining on their […]

Walter Clayton Jr. is Ruled Out on Friday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Walter Clayton Jr. (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This is tough news for the Grizzlies, who are already without Ty Jerome (ankle) and Cam Spencer (back) for Friday's game. The absence of Clayton should mean increased roles for Jahmai Mashack, Javon Small, and possibly […]

Terance Mann is Returning on Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard Terance Mann (Achilles) has been removed from the injury report and is back in action ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Mann sat out of Tuesday's game loss to the Charlotte Hornets due to an Achilles issue. He'll move back into the starting five on Friday. Over the last seven […]

Jose Quintana Gets Placed on Injured List

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Jose Quintana (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day Injured List on Thursday, retroactive to Monday. The veteran southpaw allowed two earned runs across 4.1 innings of work during his season debut on Sunday. He appears to have suffered a right hamstring strain during that start, which will knock him out for […]

Mickey Moniak Could be Activated Ahead of Friday's Game

Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak (finger) is expected to be activated from the Injured List ahead of Friday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Rockies made some moves on Thursday, but still have an open roster spot ahead of this contest. With that being said, it seems likely the Rockies are keeping that open to […]

Michael Wacha is Scratched from Friday's Start

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Michael Wacha (illness) has been scratched from his scheduled start against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday. It appears the veteran right-hander is feeling under the weather, so he'll be pulled from this start, but shouldn't need to be placed on the Injured List. Luinder Avila has been recalled from Triple-A […]

Spencer Strider to Throw Bullpen Session on Friday

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider (oblique) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Friday in Phoenix. Strider is currently working his way back from an oblique issue that has kept him sidelined since the end of Spring Training.

Andrew Nembhard is Ruled Out for Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (back) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Nembhard will miss his second straight game due to back soreness. The Pacers aren't playing for anything besides lottery odds right now, so they have little incentive to play anyone at less than 100 percent. It's unclear […]

Pascal Siakam is Probable for Friday's Game

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Siakam is expected to be active once again after playing during Wednesday's game. He finished with 25 points, four rebounds, and five assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's victory. Given the injuries to this roster, Siakam should continue […]

Immanuel Quickley to Miss Seventh Straight Game

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Unsurprisingly, Quickley will miss his seventh game in a row due to a lingering foot injury. He's dealing with plantar fasciitis, which really only gets better with rest. Ja'Kobe Walter should continue starting until Quickley is ready […]

Jock Landale to be Re-Evaluated in Two Weeks

Atlanta Hawks center Jock Landale (ankle) will miss the next two weeks of action. Landale will be re-evaluated in two weeks after suffering a right ankle sprain during Wednesday's game.
