Cincinnati Reds third baseman Eugenio Suarez (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. The slugging corner infielder will get a routine rest day.

Deven Marrero Returns To Majors

Miami Marlins infielder Deven Marrero will join the big league roster on Wednesday. The organization has decided to purchase Marrero's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville. He was hitting fairly well in the minors, but has never seen much success at the MLB level. Marrero has not played in the MLB since August of 2019, but will […]

Jeff Hoffman Nearing Rehab Assignment

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Jeff Hoffman (shoulder) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville next week. He has been on the injured list since late May due to a right shoulder impingement. It won't be shocking to see Hoffman need more than one rehab start before rejoining the Reds roster. He was […]

Collin McHugh Lands On COVID List

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Collin McHugh has been placed on the COVID-19 injured list. That's a shame since McHugh has been fantastic out of the bullpen and as an opener for Tampa Bay this season. The organization has not given more information about when McHugh might return. In the meantime, Chris Mazza will rejoin […]

Ryan McMahon Not In The Lineup Wednesday

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon (rest) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres. This appears to be a routine day off for McMahon who collected three hits on Tuesday. Brendan Rodgers will cover second base versus lefty Blake Snell on Wednesday. The former top prospect is finally […]

Mike Moustakas Suffers Setback

Cincinnati Reds infielder Mike Moustakas (heel) has suffered a setback while rehabbing in Triple-A. He began playing rehab games on Tuesday, but has been pulled off that due to renewed soreness.

Tommy Edman Remains Out Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Tommy Edman (abdominal) remains out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins.

Manager Mike Shildt has played down the concern surrounding Edman's […]

Nolan Arenado Gets Rest Day

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado (rest) will not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins. This appears to be a routine day off for the superstar slugger who has been in a slump recently. Matt Carpenter will cover third base and bat cleanup on Wednesday. Sadly, Carpenter has been […]

Jason Castro Activated, Garrett Stubbs Optioned

Houston Astros catcher Jason Castro (Achilles) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. He has been sidelined since late May due to left Achilles soreness. He was able to get through his rehab assignment without any issues and will return to the Astros now. Castro won't have great upside in fantasy formats […]

Anthony Rendon Exits Early Monday

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (triceps) was unable to play all the way through Monday's game against the Oakland Athletics. It appears Rendon suffered a triceps injury while diving in the field. He exited the game shortly after that and the team is likely to reveal more information on Tuesday. It wouldn't be […]

Zack Littell To Serve As Opener Again

San Francisco Giants pitcher Zack Littell will serve as the opener for Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He threw a scoreless frame last Wednesday against the Texas Rangers. Sammy Long was impressive during his debut and this formula is likely something the Giants continue to use. Long appears to be an interesting streaming choice […]

Lance McCullers Jr. To Start On Tuesday

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (shoulder) will rejoin the rotation versus the Texas Rangers on Tuesday. He allowed one run over four innings of work during his rehab start. McCullers has been sharp this season and should be rostered in most fantasy formats. However, it sounds like the plan is Jake Odorizzi follows […]

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (oblique) will continue his rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Tuesday. The slugging first baseman played his first rehab game on Sunday and will stay with the organization throughout the week. Voit is working his way back from a Grade 2 oblique strain. The hope is that Voit […]

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Brock Stassi has signed a minor league deal with the organization.

Travis d'Arnaud Hopeful To Return By August

Atlanta Braves catcher Travis d'Arnaud (thumb) is expected to return sometime by August, according to GM Alex Anthopoulos. In early May, d'Arnaud had surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left thumb. He'll obviously still need to play in some rehab games and get back into his groove before returning to the roster. There […]

Steven Matz Tests Positive For COVID-19

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Steven Matz has tested positive for COVID-19. It's worth noting all follow-up testing came back negative and Matz remains symptom-free. However, Matz will need to be isolated for 10 days per MLB guidelines. He'll likely need a rehab start or some bullpen sessions before returning to the big league roster. […]

George Springer Timetable For Return Unclear

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (quad) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday. It sounds like he'll play five innings in that contest before being re-evaluated.

Kolten Wong Takes Batting Practice On Monday

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Kolten Wong (oblique) was able to take batting practice on Monday.

Jake Odorizzi Will Pitch Out Of Bullpen On Tuesday

Houston Astros starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi will pitch out of the bullpen during Tuesday's game against the Texas Rangers. The 31-year-old has been horrendous during his six starts this season. It sounds like the plan is for Lance McCullers Jr. to start and Odorizzi will follow him out of the bullpen. This is reportedly a […]

Javier Baez Scratched On Sunday

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez (thumb) has been scratched from Sunday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. He missed a few games earlier in the week due to soreness in his thumb. He struggled heavily over the last two games, so the Cubs will give Baez a day off here. Hopefully this isn't something that […]

Jose Devers Exits Early Versus Braves

Miami Marlins shortstop Jose Devers (shoulder) was unable to get through Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Braves. He is dealing with shoulder discomfort and this has been a day-to-day issue, according to manager Don Mattingly. It wouldn't be shocking to see the organization give the 21-year-old some extra rest. He has been average with the […]

Triston McKenzie Optioned, Ernie Clement Recalled

Cleveland Indians pitcher Triston McKenzie has been optioned to the minors following a rough outing against the Seattle Mariners on Saturday. He struggled heavily to find the strike zone and carries a 6.38 ERA and 1.58 WHIP over 42 1/3 innings this season. The Indians will send him to the minors, so he can work […]

Trevor Rogers Activated, Starting On Tuesday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Trevor Rogers has been activated off the injured list on Sunday. He was recently placed on the IL without any injury given, so it was likely due to COVID-19 vaccination side effects. He has been activated and is scheduled to make his next appearance against the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. […]

Cedric Mullins Doesn't Play Sunday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins (rest) was not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Steven Matz Placed On COVID Injured List

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Steven Matz has been placed on the COVID injured list on Sunday. The left-handed starter is reportedly symptom-free and will undergo additional testing. The organization should give a better timetable once all the testing is completed. Jeremy Beasley has been recalled to take over Matz spot on the roster, but […]

Colin Moran Removed From Sunday's Contest

Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Colin Moran (undisclosed) has been removed from Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Moran suffered an unknown injury while running the bases. The team hasn't given much information, so fantasy managers are likely going to be forced to wait until after the game. Phillip Evans subbed into the game and could […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Exits Due To Injury

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (pectoral) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. The team reportedly removed Acuna as a precaution because he was dealing with right pectoral muscle tightness. The team should be able to give more details after the game. Hopefully it's just the type of issue […]

Angels Claim Jack Mayfield Off Waivers

Los Angeles Angels have decided to give Jack Mayfield another chance after designating him for assignment earlier in the season. On Sunday, they claimed Mayfield off waivers from the Seattle Mariners. He has struggled heavily during his time at the major league level. It's unlikely that he has much of a role on the Angels […]

Khris Davis Placed On Unconditional Release Waivers

Texas Rangers designated hitter Khris Davis was designated for assignment back on June 8. The veteran slugger has been placed on unconditional release waivers. Which means, Davis will become a free agent, assuming no other team claims him. Davis is slashing .157/.262/.333 with two home runs and five RBI this season. Regardless of where he […]

Javier Baez Returns To The Lineup Friday

Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez (thumb) is back in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. He has missed each of the last three games due to right thumb soreness.
