Bryce Elder Records 12 Strikeouts in No-Decision

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Bryce Elder looked nearly untouchable on the mound during Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

Christian Encarnacion-Strand Productive on Saturday

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Christian Encarnacion-Strand put together a strong performance at the plate during Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Ryan Weathers Removed for Precautionary Reasons

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Ryan Weathers (forearm) made an early exit from Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Weathers was taken out after only three innings due to what appeared to be a forearm injury.

Denzel Clarke to Sit Out on Saturday

Athletics outfielder Denzel Clarke (shoulder) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Clarke was forced to exit early during Friday's game after colliding hard into the wall while attempting to make a catch. As a result, Clarke will take a seat on Saturday and it wouldn't be shocking […]

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani (elbow) will have his live bullpen session pushed back until Monday. Ohtani was supposed to throw this weekend, but with rain in the forecast the Dodgers have decided to wait until Monday.

Corbin Burnes Moved to 60-Day Injured List

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Corbin Burnes (elbow) has been transferred to the 60-day injured list on Saturday.

San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Endy Rodriguez Exits with Trainer

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Endy Rodriguez (elbow) was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Rome Odunze Anticipates Big Year 2

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze believes he's going to take a major step forward in his second professional season. Odunze had high expectations after being drafted as the No. 9 overall pick during last year's draft. He finished with 54 receptions, 734 yards, and three touchdowns across 17 games last season. To be fair, […]

Keilan Robinson Joins Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles have claimed running back Keilan Robinson off waivers from the Jacksonville Jaguars on Friday.

Ladd McConkey Focused on Staying Healthy

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey dealt with multiple injuries last season, but still only missed one game during the regular season.

Carson Kelly Gets the Night Off

Chicago Cubs catcher Carson Kelly is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Washington Nationals.

DJ LeMahieu Heading to the Bench

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Cleveland Guardians.

The veteran slugger doesn't offer much […]

Spencer Horwitz Absent on Thursday

Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman Spencer Horwitz is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Houston Astros.

Kumar Rocker Optioned to Minors

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kumar Rocker has been optioned to Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday. Well this is unfortunate news, Rocker was activated off the injured list on Wednesday.

Shea Langeliers Exits Early on Thursday

Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers (side) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the Minnesota Twins. It's not exactly clear what's wrong with Langeliers, but he appears to have suffered a side or oblique injury during Thursday's contest. The expectation is that Langeliers will undergo further testing, so fantasy managers should get another update […]

Roki Sasaki Plays Catch on Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Roki Sasaki (shoulder) was seen playing catch at Dodger Stadium ahead of Wednesday's matchup against the New York Mets.

Will Smith Sitting Out on Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the New York Mets. Smith will now sit out for the second time in this series. He has been struggling lately going 0-for-9 over his last three games, so it makes sense to rest him on Wednesday. In […]

Jacob Wilson Officially Returns on Wednesday

Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson (hip) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Wilson makes his way back to the lineup following a one-game absence due to a neck injury he suffered on Monday. This is great news for fantasy managers as Wilson has been crushing the ball this […]

Kerry Carpenter Scratched on Wednesday

Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter (hamstring) has been scratched from the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox.

Tyler Glasnow to Throw This Week

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow (shoulder) is reportedly feeling better from a shoulder issue that has sidelined him since late April.
