Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras (ankle) returned to the lineup on Saturday after missing the previous contest. The 30-year-old catcher played in both games of Saturday's doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals. He went 2-for-9 with an RBI double in his return. Contreras is hitting .275/.396/.519 with nine homers, 22 RBI this season. Fantasy managers […]

Tyler O'Neill Blasts Homer In Rehab Game

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) appears to be getting back into a groove at the plate. On Saturday, the young outfielder went 2-for-4 with a solo home run during a minor league rehab game in Triple-A. It sounds like O'Neill is ready to return, but Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol mentioned O'Neill won't be […]

Mike Trout Hitless On Saturday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout continues his longest slump of his career. On Saturday, the superstar outfielder went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in the loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. The Angels have dropped 10 straight games and fallen out of first place in the AL West. Trout is 0-for-23 in his last six games, […]

Clayton Kershaw To Make Rehab Start On Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw (pelvis) is scheduled to make a minor league rehab start on Sunday in Single-A. The expectation is that Kershaw will be able to throw three or four innings. After that, the 34-year-old will hopefully be able to rejoin the Dodgers rotation by next weekend. Kershaw has been sidelined […]

Brendan Donovan Drives In Four Runs

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Brendan Donovan continues to be one of the best surprises in baseball. The 25-year-old went 3-for-5 with four RBI and a stolen base during Saturday's win over the Chicago Cubs. This three-hit performance will move Donovan's batting average to .315 on the year. The Cardinals should continue to find places for […]

Caleb Kilian Looks Solid Against Cardinals

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Caleb Kilian made his MLB debut on Saturday versus the St. Louis Cardinals. This was a tough task for the 25-year-old against a tough lineup. However, Kilian held his own and looked mostly solid throughout his first career start. He went five innings, three his allowed, three earned runs, and six […]

Dylan Cease Struggles With Command

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dylan Cease struggled to find the strike zone during Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The young righty has been fairly reliable this season, but unsurprisingly struggled with his command. On Saturday, Cease only went 4 2/3 innings due to the fact that he walked seven batters. He only […]

Mackenzie Gore Strikes Out 10 Batters

San Diego Padres starting pitcher MacKenzie Gore looked sharp during Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The young-hander went six innings, three hits allowed, and struck out 10 batters during the 4-0 win. Gore has gone 13 innings straight without allowing a run. He's in line to draw a home start against the Colorado Rockies […]

Lane Thomas Blasts Three Homers

Washington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas had a game to remember versus the Cincinnati Reds on Friday. He came into the game hitting .195/.255/.325 in 137 plate appearances, but put together a career performance in this one. Thomas blasted three home runs and finished with four RBI during the 8-5 victory on Friday. Possibly, it's a […]

Matt Manning To Visit A Specialist On Monday

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matt Manning (bicep) is scheduled to visit a specialist on Monday, according to manager A.J. Hinch. The 24-year-old was pulled during his last rehab start due to bicep tendinitis. The fact that the right-hander will need to see a specialist is not good news for fantasy managers. He could be looking […]

Kyle Garlick Removed From Friday's Game

Minnesota Twins outfielder Kyle Garlick (hamstring) was unable to get through Friday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. However, Garlick managed to go 3-for-3 with a pair of home runs and three RBI before exiting the game. The organization is calling the issue a mild hamstring strain, so Garlick could end up missing time. There's […]

Miguel Andujar Heading To Minors

New York Yankees third baseman Miguel Andujar has been optioned to Triple-A on Friday. He went 1-for-5 during Friday's victory over the Detroit Tigers. Afterwards, the Yankees decided it was time to send him back to the minors. He was hitting .268/.279/.317 with no homers, three RBI in 12 games. The organization hasn't made a […]

Willson Contreras Avoids Serious Injury

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras (ankle) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. He was hit by a pitch during the eighth inning and came out of the contest as a precaution. The X-rays on his ankle came back negative, so Contreras isn't expected to need a trip to […]

Nolan Gorman To Return On Friday

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Gorman (back) will return to the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Chicago Cubs. He has missed each of the last three games due to back stiffness. However, the young infielder is ready to give it a go during Friday's contest. He'll serve as the designated hitter and […]

Matthew Liberatore Optioned To Minors

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Matthew Liberatore has been optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Friday. The team's No. 3 prospect will head back to the minors after a few rough outings. The 22-year-old should get more chances to make an impact on the Cardinals roster later in the season. In a corresponding move, right-hander Johan […]

Max Kepler, Emilio Pagan Land On Restricted List

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler and relief pitcher Emilio Pagan have been placed on the restricted list. The Twins have a series in Toronto, so they will presumably be without these players because they're unvaccinated. Kepler just returned to action last week due to a quad issue, so fantasy managers will be without him again […]

Phillies Fire Joe Girardi

Philadelphia Phillies manager Joe Girardi has been let go by the organization on Friday. The team has decided to move on from Girardi after two-and-a-half seasons. The Phillies have gone 132-141 under Girardi. Obviously not great, but a 22-29 start to the 2022 season was the end of it. Bench coach Rob Thompson will take […]

Stephen Curry Drops 34 Points In Loss

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry did everything he could during Thursday's Game 1 against the Boston Celtics. The All-Star guard came out on fire and scored 21 of his team's first 32 points. Sadly, Curry was quiet when it mattered the most in the fourth quarter. Despite that, he finished with 34 points, five […]

Jaylen Brown Steps Up On Thursday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown was a problem for the Golden State Warriors all night long during Thursday's Game 1 contest. The young guard finished with 24 points on 10-of-23 shooting with seven rebounds and five assists in the victory. Fellow teammate Jayson Tatum struggled heavily, but luckily Brown was able to pick up the […]

Jayson Tatum Struggles In Game 1 Victory

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum struggled to make anything during Thursday's Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors. It was his first NBA Finals appearance and Tatum was unable to step up on the big stage. He finished with 12 points on 3-of-17 shooting, but luckily his teammates picked up the slack. The Celtics were […]

Al Horford Comes Through In Game 1

Boston Celtics forward Al Horford came ready to play during Thursday's Game 1 against the Golden State Warriors. The veteran big man recorded 26 points, six rebounds, and three assists through 33 minutes of action. Horford was making key buckets down the stretch, which was a significant factor in the Celtics victory. This is a […]

Jay Scrubb Cleared For Basketball Activities

Los Angeles Clippers guard Jay Scrubb (foot) has been cleared to resume basketball activities. The young guard appeared in 18 games before undergoing season-ending surgery in February. The assumption is that Scrubb will be ready in time for the summer league. However, he'll likely be buried on the Clippers depth chart going forward. Fantasy managers […]

Gary Payton II Expected To Play In Game 1

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (elbow) is expected to be available for Thursday's Game 1 against the Boston Celtics. This is quite surprising considering Payton suffered a fractured elbow on May 3. It's unclear how many minutes Payton will play, but having him back on the court would be a plus for Golden […]

Andre Iguodala Might Retire

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (neck) carries a questionable tag heading into Thursday's Game 1 against the Boston Celtics. However, the veteran forward revealed he has made a final decision about his future. Although, Iguodala is waiting until after the series to reveal whether or not he plans to retire. He hasn't played since […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. Could Work As Returner

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. could help the team as a returner, according to head coach Doug Pederson. They've added Christian Kirk and Zay Jones, so Shenault could see less action as a wideout this upcoming season. That being said, Shenault is a candidate to see increased time as a returner in Jacksonville. […]

Nelson Agholor Working As Fourth Receiver

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor is reportedly working as the fourth option in OTAs. The former first round pick is coming off a forgettable season during his first year in New England. Agholor finished with 37 receptions, 473 receiving yards, and three touchdowns in 15 games. It's not surprising to see that Agholor […]

Albert Wilson Joins Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings have signed free-agent wide receiver Albert Wilson to a one-year contract. He spent each of the last three seasons with the Miami Dolphins. In 2021, Wilson finished with 25 receptions, 213 receiving yards, and zero touchdowns through 14 games. This signing doesn't jump off the page, but is a solid depth move […]

Jaylen Samuels Released By Cardinals

Arizona Cardinals running back Jaylen Samuels has been released by the organization. The 25-year-old was drafted in the fifth round by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2018. Samuels saw 55-plus carries during his first two seasons in Pittsburgh. Since then, Samuels has a total of 14 carries over the last two years. Most recently, Samuels made […]

Lucas Krull Looks Impressive

New Orleans Saints tight end Lucas Krull has reportedly been impressive during recent OTAs. He signed with the Saints in late April after going undrafted. Krull hauled in 38 receptions, 451 receiving yards, and six touchdowns last season at Pittsburgh. There is no clear cut No. 1 tight end on this roster, so Krull could […]

Aaron Donald Still Considering Retirement

Los Angeles Rams defensive end Aaron Donald mentioned that he is at peace with retirement after recent contract discussions. A Super Bowl victory has made Donald rethink his retirement. Donald is a Super Bowl champion and a no doubt Hall of Fame player. There is not much left for Donald to accomplish during his career. […]
