Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte (wrist) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

Ramon Laureano Returns to the Lineup on Wednesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Ramon Laureano (shin) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Houston Astros. Laureano suffered some cramping on Saturday and sat out the last few games. However, it appears to be a minor issue and he'll suit up for this one. Laureano will bat seventh and play right field […]

Eric Sogard is Out of the Lineup Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Eric Sogard (leg) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Texas Rangers. Sogard hasn't been in the lineup since he took a foul ball to the leg on Friday. It sounds like a minor issue, so hopefully he can get back in the lineup within the […]

Justin Dunn Will Debut on Thursday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Justin Dunn will make his major league debut against the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday. Dunn was acquired by Seattle in the deal that sent Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz to the Mets. He's not expected to work a full starters workload, so he'll likely only pitch a few innings. Dunn won't […]

Johnny Cueto Making Season Debut Tuesday

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Johnny Cueto (elbow) will make his season debut against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday. Cueto missed 13 months of action after undergoing Tommy John surgery.

D.J. LeMahieu is Out on Tuesday

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.

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 […]
