Aaron Judge Gets A Breather

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Judge will get a routine rest day here, but should be back in the lineup on Wednesday. Tyler Wade will cover right field and bat ninth versus righty Edwin Jackson. Wade doesn't have much upside […]

D.J. LeMahieu is Out on Tuesday

New York Yankees second baseman DJ LeMahieu (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. The Yankees have a huge lead for homefield advantage in the playoffs, so resting their starters isn't a bad idea. Gleyber Torres will bat leadoff and slide over to second base versus righty Edwin […]

Mike Moustakas Still Remains Sidelined

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Mike Moustakas (hand) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Miami Marlins. Moustakas hasn't been in the lineup since September 2 due to a lingering hand issue. He's played defense a few times, but is having issues gripping the bat. It's unclear when Moustakas will be able […]

Ramon Laureano is Out Again on Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Ramon Laureano (shin) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Houston Astros. Laureano missed five weeks of action due to a stress fracture in his shin. The Athletics are easing him back into action and he'll sit again on Tuesday after feeling discomfort over the weekend. Mark Canha […]

Kyle Gibson Activated, Will Start Thursday

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Kyle Gibson (colon) has been activated from the 10-day injured list and will draw the start against the Washington Nationals on Thursday. Gibson missed roughly two weeks of action due to a ulcerative colitis. Gibson has been awful on the mound since August, so he's not a reliable streaming option for […]

Justin Turner Scratched on Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner (ankle) has been scratched from Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. He did not play in Sunday's game due to a lingering ankle issue. However, the injury appears to be minor, so Turner is not expected to be sidelined long. Chris Taylor will bat third and play third […]

Nelson Cruz Returns to the Lineup on Tuesday

Minnesota Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz (wrist) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Washington Nationals. Cruz did not play on Saturday or Sunday due to lingering discomfort in his wrist. He will bat third and serve as the designated hitter against righty Anibal Sanchez. Cruz is having an excellent year […]

Carlos Correa Could Play in Rehab Game Friday

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (back) could play in a rehab game this Friday with Triple-A Round Rock. Correa has been sidelined since August 20 due to a lower back issue. It sounds like he'll be ready to play next week, assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks. Alex Bregman will cover shortstop and bat cleanup […]

Mike Trout is Out of the Lineup Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (foot) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Indians. Trout underwent a procedure on Monday to address the issue in his right foot. There is a good chance that Trout is sidelined for most of this week. Brian Goodwin will bat leadoff and cover […]

Darwin Thompson Catches One Pass

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darwin Thompson was a forgotten man in Sunday's 40-26 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Thompson played one snap and caught one pass for three yards. The addition of LeSean McCoy has erased Thompson's value, so fantasy owners may want to consider dropping him. Thompson is going to have basically no […]

Kris Bryant Remains Out of the Lineup Monday

Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant (knee) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the San Diego Padres. He received a cortisone injection in his knee on Sunday, so he could sit on Tuesday or possibly Wednesday too. David Bote will draw the start at third base and bat eighth versus righty […]

Mike Moustakas Sits Out Against Marlins

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Mike Moustakas (hand) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Miami Marlins. Moustakas suffered a bruise on his hand in August and continues to deal with lingering discomfort. Travis Shaw will play third base and bat seventh versus righty Robert Dugger. Shaw has one hit in his […]

Didi Gregorius Takes A Breather on Monday

New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Gregorius is getting a routine rest day here against the left-handed starter. Gleyber Torres will cover shortstop and bat third versus lefty Eduardo Rodriguez. Torres is a solid DFS option here against Rodriguez, so […]

Gary Sanchez is Absent Against Boston

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Sanchez will get a routine rest day here, so he should be back in the lineup next game. Austin Romine will draw the start behind the plate and bat ninth versus lefty Eduardo Rodriguez. […]

Mike Tauchman Likely Done for the Season

New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman (calf) is expected to miss the rest of the 2019 season following an injury. Tauchman suffered a Grade 2 left calf strain, so it's unlikely he plays again this season. He's suffered the injury on Sunday and is expected to miss roughly two months. Tauchman struggled as of late, […]

Ramon Laureano is Out on Monday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Ramon Laureano (leg) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Houston Astros. Laureano missed five weeks of action due to a stress fracture in his shin. The Athletics are going to ease him back into things, so he'll take the night off here. Mark Canha will play center […]

Mike Trout Remains Out on Monday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (toe) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cleveland Indians. This marks the third game in a row that Trout has missed due to a sore toe. Brian Goodwin will bat leadoff and play center field versus righty Shane Bieber. Goodwin has been cooling off […]

Bryce Harper Returns on Monday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper (hand) is back in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Harper was hit in the hand during Friday's game and has missed the last two games since then. It appears to be a minor issue, so he's feeling well enough to play in this one. Harper […]

Harrison Butker Notches Four Field Goals

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker had himself an excellent game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1. Butker is already known as one of the better kicker in the league, but he proved that point on Sunday. He knocked down all four of his field goal attempts in this contest. Butker scored 16 points […]

Travis Kelce Only Hauls in Three Receptions

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce could've had a big day in fantasy, but failed to haul in over half his targets. Kelce finished with three receptions on eight targets for 88 yards in the 40-26 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. It wasn't all Kelce's fault, some of the passes were thrown poorly by […]

Tyreek Hill Goes for 16 Yards Before Exiting

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (shoulder) caught both his targets for 16 yards before exiting the game due to a collarbone issue. The Chiefs still ended up winning 40-26 over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Hill was taken to the hospital, but received good news. He won't need surgery, so he's only going to miss […]

Sammy Watkins Explodes for Three Touchdowns

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins had one of the biggest games in Chiefs' history on Sunday. Watkins caught nine receptions for 198 yards and three touchdowns in the 40-26 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was the fifth biggest receiving performance in team history. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) is going to be sidelined for […]

LeSean McCoy Rushes for 81 Yards Against Jags

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy had a solid game on the ground, but it didn't develop into many fantasy points. McCoy rushed 10 times for 81 yards and he did not score in the 40-26 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Lead back Damien Williams only rushed for 26 yards on 13 attempts. It […]

Damien Williams Scores TD in Victory

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams was not strong in the run game, but salvaged his fantasy day in the passing game. Williams rushed 13 times for 26 yards and a touchdown. He caught six passes for 39 yards and finished second on the team in total receptions. LeSean McCoy out-rushed him, but Williams […]

Patrick Mahomes Tosses Three Touchdowns Against Jags

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes looks like he hasn't missed a beat since last season. He completed 25-of-33 passes for 378 yards and three touchdowns in the 40-26 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1. Mahomes threw for 313 yards and two touchdowns before halftime. He didn't do as much in the second […]

Darwin Thompson Has Minimal Value

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darwin Thompson went from late-round steal to the waiver wire in a matter of a week. The signing of veteran running back LeSean McCoy has basically taken away all Thompson's value in one fell swoop. Lead back Damien Williams and McCoy are expected to see almost all the touches in […]

Travis Kelce Should Dominate on Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was basically unstoppable last season and that's expected to carry over into this season. Kelce has scored 18 touchdowns since the start of the 2017, which is tied for the most among tight ends. He heads into a matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1 that struggle […]

Sammy Watkins A WR2 Against Jags

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins is once again predicted to have a solid fantasy season, but injuries are going to dictate that. Watkins seems to have the potential to be a reliable fantasy wideout, but it never comes to fruition. Tyreek Hill is going to be the No. 1 receiver for the Chiefs, […]

Bryce Harper is Fine After Getting Hit

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper (hand) avoided any serious injury after getting hit on the wrist during Friday's game against the New York Mets. Harper said afterwards he was unable to grip the bat. However, the Phillies are listing him as day-to-day with a hand contusion. The X-rays came back negative, so he'll likely just […]

Matt Carpenter is Out on Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Matt Carpenter (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Carpenter will get a routine day off here against the left-handed starter. Tommy Edman will cover third base and bat seventh versus lefty Steven Brault. Edman has been reliable with the bat over the […]
