New York Yankees relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman (Achilles) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Chicago White Sox.

He faced two more batters before deciding to […]

Austin Slater Exits Early Due To Injury

San Francisco Giants outfielder Austin Slater (wrist) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the San Diego Padres. It's unclear how Slater suffered the injury, but it does make sense why he was pinch-hit for in the fifth inning. Outfielder Joc Pederson came into bat against a left-handed pitcher, which seemed like an […]

San Francisco Giants first baseman Brandon Belt (knee) could return from the injured list when first eligible. That being said, manager Gabe Kapler believes Belt should be able to return next Sunday. He was placed on the injured list ahead of Sunday's game after missing the two first games of the series against the San […]

San Diego Padres pitcher Nick Martinez will make the start on Monday, according to manager Bob Melvin. Right-hander Mike Clevinger (triceps) was scheduled to start before he ended up on the injured list. That being said, it appears the Padres are planning on using a six-man rotation while Clevinger is out. Martinez has been fairly […]

Andrew Whitworth Could Make NFL Return

Los Angeles Rams offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth recently retired after playing 16 seasons in the NFL. The 40-year-old went out on top as a Super Bowl champion. However, the All-Pro tackle has not ruled out a possible return. He is still technically under contract with the Rams. Also, it sounds like Whitworth is staying in […]

David Bell Can Play Both Outside And Slot Roles

Cleveland Browns wide receiver David Bell could be seeing plenty of action in this offensive unit. The third-round rookie can play both outside and slot roles, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. That being said, Bell could be a unique option for the Browns offense. They don't have a reliable No. 2 receiver to play […]

Keaontay Ingram Could Be No. 2 Back

Arizona Cardinals running back Keaontay Ingram could ended up as the No. 2 option heading into next season. The Cardinals are without a reliable backup since Chase Edmonds departed during the offseason. That being said, Ingram could replace Edmonds as the No. 2 back behind James Conner. Last season, Edmonds averaged 13 touches per game, […]

James White Cleared For On-Field Drills

New England Patriots running back James White (hip) was cleared for on-field drills. The veteran back was limited to three games due to hip surgery in October. The 30-year-old is making solid progress, but might be held out of full-squad workouts next week. The good news is, White should be ready to go when training […]

Joey Gallo Not Starting On Saturday

New York Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox. This is not shocking considering left-hander Dallas Keuchel is pitching for the South Siders. Gallo has been off to a rough start to the season, so he could use a day off. Aaron Hicks […]

Kris Bryant Activated, Starting On Saturday

Colorado Rockies third baseman Kris Bryant (back) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The All-Star infielder missed nearly a month of action due to a lower back injury. The 30-year-old was hitting well before going on the injured list, so fantasy managers can hope that continues. He'll bat third and play […]

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Is Returning On Saturday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. He is back in the lineup after exiting Wednesday's game due to hamstring tightness. Gurriel will play first base and bat eighth versus righty Hunter Greene. Fantasy managers should make sure Gurriel is back […]

Kyle Farmer Sitting Out On Saturday

Cincinnati Reds shortstop Kyle Farmer (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. He has been dealing with some soreness lately, but has played in three straight games. This appears to be a routine day off, so fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned. Matt Reynolds will bat ninth and […]

Ketel Marte Is Back In The Lineup On Saturday

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder/outfielder Ketel Marte (wrist, rest) is back in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Chicago Cubs. He missed Friday's game and a pair of games earlier in the week due to a wrist injury. However, it appears Marte has avoided a major injury and is back in the lineup on Saturday. […]

Ian Happ To Rest On Saturday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The switch-hitting outfielder will take a routine day off here. Patrick Wisdom will bat sixth and play left field against left-hander Madison Bumgarner. This isn't a favorable spot for Wisdom, but he certainly has the power […]

Luis Gil To Undergo Tommy John Surgery

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Gil (elbow) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery on his elbow. The 23-year-old was removed from his last start on Wednesday due to an elbow issue. He made a spot start with the Yankees earlier this month before heading back to the minors. The Yankees wanted Gil to […]

Kyle Lowry Questionable For Game 3

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Boston Celtics. He has missed the last four games and eight total games during the postseason. However, the questionable tag is actually a good sign that Lowry might be getting closer to a return. His return would mean Gabe […]

P.J. Tucker Officially Listed As Questionable For Game 3

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's Game 3 against the Boston Celtics. He was forced to exit early during Game 2 due to a left knee contusion. It sounds like the team is going to wait and see how Tucker feels closer to game time before making a […]

Jalen Brunson Surprises With 31-Point Outing

Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson put together a surprisingly solid performance during Friday's Game 2 against the Golden State Warriors. He wasn't much of a factor during their Game 1 loss. However, Brunson made sure to make up for it during Friday's contest. He finished with 31 points, seven rebounds, and five assists in the […]

Luka Doncic Goes Off With 42 Points

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic did everything he could during Friday's Game 2 against the Golden State Warriors. He was reportedly sick during Game 1, but looked fine during Friday's contest.

Stephen Curry Scores 31 In Game 2 Win

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry was somewhat held in check during the first game of this series.

He finished with 32 points, eight rebounds, […]

Kevon Looney Posts Double-Double In Game 2

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney put together an outstanding performance on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks. He set both career highs for points in the regular season and postseason. Looney finished with 21 points, 12 rebounds, and two assists in 32 minutes. He was getting MVP chants from the crowd, which is awesome. Looney […]

Seiya Suzuki To Sit Out On Friday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This appears to be a routine day off for Suzuki who has struggled at the plate lately. He has struck out in nine of his last 25 plate appearances, so he could use a day off. […]

Andrew Knizner Could Miss Time

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Andrew Knizner (head) was forced to exit Thursday's game due to concussion symptoms. He took a couple of foul balls to the mask and was unable to continue. He remains with the team, but will be re-evaluated to see if a roster move is needed. Knizner doesn't offer much upside with […]

Andre Iguodala Will Miss Game 2

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (back) won't be available for Friday's Game 2 against the Dallas Mavericks. The team continues to evaluate Iguodala for his left cervical disk injury. He'll miss at least Friday's game, but could sit out more of this series as well. His absence won't have much of an impact on […]

Jayson Tatum Continues Hot Stretch

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum nearly dropped 30 points in Game 1, but left more in the tank for Thursday's Game 2 contest. The All-Star forward finished with 27 points, five rebounds, and five assists in the victory over the Miami Heat. Tatum went 8-for-13 from the floor and knocked down four triples along the […]

Marcus Smart Nearly Posts Triple-Double

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart put together an outstanding performance during Thursday's Game 2 against the Miami Heat. Smart came into this contest a little banged up with a right foot sprain. However, the injury didn't seem to bother Smart as he almost posted a triple-double in the victory. He finished with 24 points, 12 […]

Jimmy Butler Drops 29 Points In Loss

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler was basically the lone bright spot for his team during Thursday's Game 2 against the Boston Celtics. The All-Star forward finished with 29 points, six rebounds, and three assists in 48 minutes during their loss. This was a solid performance from Butler, but sadly his teammates weren't able to bring […]

P.J. Tucker Forced Out Early Due To Injury

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker (knee) was forced to exit early during Thursday's Game 2 against the Boston Celtics. The veteran forward lasted 22 minutes before exiting due to a left knee contusion.
