Michael Brantley To Rest On Sunday

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley (rest) is not listed in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. It appears the Astros are giving both Brantley and Jose Altuve the day off for rest purposes. Jose Siri will bat leadoff and cover center, while Chas McCormick bats eighth and plays left field […]

Mike Minor To Begin Rehab Assignment On Wednesday

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Mike Minor (shoulder) is scheduled to begin his rehab assignment in Double-A on Wednesday. The 34-year-old lefty began the season on the injured list due to a shoulder issue. He was acquired by Cincinnati from Kansas City in March. The former All-Star has struggled in each of the last two seasons. […]

Jose Altuve Resting On Sunday

Houston Astros infielder Jose Altuve (rest) will get the day off on Sunday against the Los Angeles Angels. Fantasy managers don't need to worry as this is a routine day off for the veteran infielder. Aledmys Diaz will cover second base and bat fifth versus lefty Jose Suarez. Normally, Diaz isn't much of a fantasy […]

Heliot Ramos Recalled, Starting On Sunday

San Francisco Giants outfielder Heliot Ramos has been recalled on Sunday. The 22-year-old outfielder will take the place of right-hander John Brebbia who has been placed on the bereavement list. Ramos will bat sixth and play left field against lefty Trevor Rogers on Sunday. That is not exactly an ideal matchup for Ramos, but he […]

Cade Cunningham Uncertain For Sunday

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (hip) is tagged as questionable for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The rookie guard started off the season slow due to an ankle injury. However, Cunningham has played much better during the second half of the season. The Pistons don't have much to gain from this game, so it's […]

D'Angelo Russell Unlikely To Play On Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The Wolves are considering sitting Russell due to a non-COVID related illness. This doesn't come as a surprise considering the Wolves have nothing to gain from this game. Fantasy managers should expect Jordan McLaughlin, Malik Beasley and Jaylen […]

Jordan Poole Is Available For Saturday

Golden State Warriors guard Jordan Poole (hand) is available for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was questionable coming into this game, but will move into the starting five here. Klay Thompson (rest) will sit this one out, so Damion Lee will move into the starting lineup. The Warriors are only one game […]

Jalen Green Listed As Questionable For Sunday

Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He struggled during his last game, but it would be a shame if Green couldn't play in the season finale. His rookie season has been a bit of a rollercoaster, but the potential upside is certainly there. It's […]

Seth Curry Tagged As Probable For Sunday

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (ankle) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He has been dealing with a lingering ankle issue lately, but plans to suit up here. He has played in each of the last two games and averaged 29.5 minutes in those games. The Nets can clinch the […]

Bobby Portis, Brook Lopez Listed As Doubtful For Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks center Bobby Portis (shoulder) and Brook Lopez (rest) are listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Most of the other main starters are unlikely to play as well. It sounds like the Bucks are ready for the postseason and will rest their starters. Serge Ibaka appears to be the last […]

Dwayne Haskins Passes Away

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Dwayne Haskins has passed away on Saturday morning. The former Ohio State standout was hit by a car in South Florida. This is tragic news as Haskins would've turned 25 on May 3. He was originally drafted by Washington in the first round in 2019. He spent two seasons in Washington before […]

Josh Bynes Re-Signs With Ravens

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Josh Bynes has agreed to a one-year deal with the organization. The veteran linebacker is currently in the middle of his third stint with Baltimore. Last season, Bynes recorded 76 tackles, two sacks, and four passes defended in 14 games. He isn't a flashy player, but someone who can play all three […]

Calais Campbell Staying In Baltimore

Baltimore Ravens defensive end Calais Campbell has re-signed with the organization. The six-time Pro Bowl pass rusher will receive a two-year deal worth $12.5 million. Over the last two seasons, Campbell has totaled 77 tackles and 5.5 sacks in 27 games with the Ravens. It appears he is not considering retirement and will play at […]

Camilo Doval Blows Three-Run Lead

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Camilo Doval was asked to take the ball in the ninth inning of Friday's game against the Miami Marlins. Veteran lefty Jake McGee threw a scoreless eighth inning before handing the ball to Doval. Sadly, Doval allowed three hits and three earned runs to cough up the lead to the […]

Matt Barnes Unavailable On Friday

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes (back) was unavailable for Friday's game against the New York Yankees. The right-hander was sidelined due to back stiffness, according to manager Alex Cora. Fantasy managers have a bit more clarity now why Hansel Robles came in during the ninth inning. He was followed by Jake Diekman and […]

Brooks Raley Locks Down Save

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Brooks Raley was asked to save the day on Friday against the Baltimore Orioles. Andrew Kittredge is expected to be the favorite for saves, but ended up pitching the eighth in this one. J.P. Feyereisen replaced Kittredge in the ninth, but didn't last too long. He recorded two outs, but […]

Drew Steckenrider Notches First Save

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Drew Steckenrider notched his first save of the season on Friday against the Minnesota Twins. Paul Sewald came in and pitched the eighth inning before handing the ball over to Steckenrider. Sewald retired all the batters he faced before exiting the game. Steckenrider made things interesting by allowing a leadoff single, […]

Yuli Gurriel Placed On Paternity List

Houston Astros infielder Yuli Gurriel has been placed on the paternity leave list. He is expected to be away from the team for a few games. Aledmys Diaz will start in his place at first base and bat fifth against Los Angeles Angels southpaw Reid Detmers on Friday. Joe Perez has been recalled to replace […]

OG Anunoby Won't Play On Friday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (quad) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He'll sit out another game here due to a quad contusion. Although, this might just be the Raptors being cautious with the playoffs looming. He'll be joined by Fred VanVleet (knee) for Friday's game. Khem Birch and Precious […]

Precious Achiuwa To Play Against Rockets

Toronto Raptors forward Precious Achiuwa (knee) will suit up for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. Achiuwa is coming off an excellent 20-point game in 40 minutes during the victory over the Philadelphia 76ers. The Raptors will be without OG Anunoby (quad) and Fred VanVleet (knee) for Friday's contest. That should mean bigger roles for […]

Alex Caruso Won't Play Against Hornets

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He'll miss his second game in a row due to a lower back contusion. Although, fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned as the Bulls are likely just resting Caruso as a precaution. Both Coby White and Javonte Green […]

Evan Mobley To Return On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (ankle) will return to the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has missed each of the last five games, but will return at a great time. The Cavs have an important game in terms of seeding on Friday and need the help of Mobley. Fantasy managers […]

Seth Curry To Play On Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Curry has been in and out of the lineup while dealing with left ankle soreness. This is an important game for both teams, so the Nets were never expected to sit one of their best offensive players. Curry has been […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Is Available For Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The Bucks will clinch the No. 2 seed, assuming they can win this one. This matchup is far easier than Sunday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. That being said, the Bucks are expected to play their main guys during Friday's […]

Kawhi Leonard To Miss Final Two Games

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) has been ruled out for the final two games of the regular season. Although, his postseason status is still to be determined. However, it's uncertain if the Clippers will get that far as they must beat the Minnesota Timberwolves before advancing. Leonard hasn't done individual workouts or 3-on-3 […]

Wenyen Gabriel Signs New Deal With Lakers

Los Angeles Lakers forward Wenyen Gabriel has signed a new contract with the organization. He'll sign a two-year deal with a team option, which is great for him after only appearing in 17 games. The Lakers waived veteran forward Trevor Ariza to make room for Gabriel on the roster. Gabriel is expected to play heavy […]

Fred Vanvleet Won't Play On Friday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (rest) won't suit up for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. The team is calling it right knee soreness, but this is basically the Raptors resting any of their banged up guys. They want to make sure Vanvleet is healthy as possible before the postseason. Malachi Flynn is likely to […]

Pirates Want To Extend Bryan Reynolds

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds could be staying with the organization for a few more seasons. The Pirates are reportedly pushing to sign at least a two-year extension with Reynolds. The hope is that this will open the door for further extension discussions in the future. Reynolds is an All-Star outfielder who is not set […]

Christian Arroyo, Jackie Bradley Jr. To Platoon In Right Field

Boston Red Sox outfielders Christian Arroyo and Jackie Bradley Jr. are expected to be on a strict platoon in right field, according to manager Alex Cora. On Friday, Bradley will bat eighth and play right field versus right-hander Gerrit Cole. That is obviously not an ideal matchup for Bradley, but no one is expected to […]

Bryson Stott Will Make MLB Debut On Friday

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Bryson Stott is expected to make his MLB debut against the Oakland Athletics on Friday. He'll bat eighth and play third base versus right-hander Frankie Montas. It sounds like Stott and Alec Bohm are going to share playing time at third base this season. The Phillies are high on Stott after he […]
