Kyle Seager Will Begin Rehab Assignment on Tuesday

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager (hand) is expected to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A on Tuesday. Seager is eligible to come off the 60-day injured list on May 25, so he'll likely rejoin the Mariners then. Seager had surgery in March to repair a partially-torn tendon in his left hand. He should be […]

Jung Ho Kang Lands on the Injured List

Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Jung Ho Kang (oblique) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Kang hasn't been hitting well this season, so it's probably not the worst thing in the world to give him some rest. Kevin Newman will draw the start at third base and bat seventh versus lefty Robbie Ray on […]

Aaron Hicks Activated, Starting Monday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks (back) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. He missed almost seven weeks due to a lingering back issue, but appears ready to play now. Hicks will leadoff and play center field versus righty David Hess on Monday. Hicks will be a reliable fantasy option if […]

Jonathan Loaisiga Placed On Injured List

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jonathan Loaisiga (shoulder) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Luis Cessa will draw the start versus the Baltimore Orioles on Monday. Loaisiga is dealing with a right shoulder strain, so it's unclear how much time he could be sidelined. He wasn't pitching great before the injury, so fantasy […]

Ryan Braun Continues to Sit Out

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup on Monday versus the Philadelphia Phillies. This marks the third game in a row that Braun has missed due to a left hamstring issue. Braun is expected to be available off the bench, but he's not worth starting in fantasy lineups for a […]

Cole Irvin Earns Another Start

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Cole Irvin has been granted another start versus the Colorado Rockies on Friday. Vince Velasquez (forearm) was expected to miss only one start, but it appears he's going to be sidelined longer. Irvin went seven innings and allowed one run during his MLB debut. However, that start was against the Royals, […]

Nelson Cruz Could Return on Tuesday

Minnesota Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz (wrist) is likely going to avoid a stint to the 10-day injured list. Luckily, the MRI on his wrist came back negative, so Cruz should not be out of the lineup for too long. There is a chance that he's back to swinging the bat by Tuesday or Wednesday. […]

Miguel Andujar Lands Back on Injured List

New York Yankees third baseman Miguel Andujar (shoulder) has landed back on the 10-day injured list. Andujar hits the injured list due to a torn right labrum in his shoulder. He could very well have surgery on it and we might not see him for quite some time. He was struggling with the bat since […]

Jonathan Schoop is Sitting Out Again

Minnesota Twins second baseman Jonathan Schoop (shoulder) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Schoop has now missed two games in a row due to soreness in his shoulder. He's considered day-to-day, but may end up landing on the injured list. Ehire Adrianza is at second base and […]

Tyler Naquin Likely to Be Placed on Injured List

Cleveland Indians outfielder Tyler Naquin (calf) is likely going to be placed on the injured list. Naquin hasn't played since last Friday due to a left calf issue. There is a good chance that Naquin lands on the injured list. Jordan Luplow will play right field and bat seventh versus righty Reynaldo Lopez on Monday.

Ryan Braun Scratched on Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun (hamstring) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Saturday. Braun is dealing with some left leg soreness, so he'll sit out this matchup versus the Chicago Cubs. Ben Gamel will replace him in left field and bat third versus lefty Cole Hamels. Gamel won't be a reliable fantasy option […]

Blaine Hardy Activated on Saturday

Detroit Tigers pitcher Blaine Hardy (forearm) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Saturday. Hardy missed nearly three weeks due to a left forearm strain. He was struggling out of the bullpen this season, but hopefully he can turn it around. Hardy pitched well out of the bullpen and rotation last season, but […]

David Price Will Throw Bullpen Session on Sunday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher David Price (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Sunday. Price landed on the injured list May 6, but could return as early as next week. He's dealing with elbow tendonitis, so it kind of just depends on how Price is feeling after the bullpen session. He was […]

Addison Russell is Sitting Out on Saturday

Chicago Cubs infielder Addison Russell (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Russell recorded his first hit of the season on Friday, but fantasy owners shouldn't expect too much. Russell isn't a great fantasy option, but is likely going to play two out of every three games. David […]

Marwin Gonzalez is Out Versus Tigers

Minnesota Twins third baseman Marwin Gonzalez (face) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Gonzalez was diagnosed with a facial contusion on Friday. He is currently being listed as day-to-day, so hopefully he doesn't land on the injured list. Ehire Adrianza will play third base and bat ninth versus […]

Byron Buxton is Sitting Out on Saturday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Buxton hasn't been great with the bat this season and is really only worth owning in fantasy leagues because of his speed. Max Kepler will play center field and bat first versus righty Spencer Turnbull on […]

Jeimer Candelario is Out on Saturday

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Candelario fell out of the leadoff spot on Friday and it still didn't help him. He's slashing .200/.302/.285 this season, so maybe some rest will help him. Gordon Beckham will bat first and play third […]

Dee Gordon Won't Play on Saturday

Seattle Mariners second baseman Dee Gordon (wrist) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Shed Long will make his Major League debut on Saturday. He was hitting well in the minors and can play multiple positions, so he should see plenty of action in Seattle. He'll bat ninth […]

Tim Beckham is Sitting Out on Saturday

Seattle Mariners shortstop Tim Beckham (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox. Beckham hasn't been able to do much with the bat lately, so the Mariners will try something else. J.P. Crawford will draw the start at shortstop and bat second versus righty Rick Porcello. Crawford doesn't […]

Pirates vs Cardinals Has Been Delayed on Saturday

The Pittsburgh Pirates vs the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium has been delayed on Saturday. It's a rainy day in St. Louis, so who knows if this game will actually get played. It was supposed to start at 1:15pm central time, so there is plenty of time for it to be played throughout the […]

Allen Webster Placed on 10-Day Injured List

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Allen Webster (elbow) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. He made 12 appearances for the Cubs this season, but was struggling with a 4.91 ERA. He's dealing with radial nerve inflammation, so it's unclear how long he'll be sidelined. Xavier Cedeno (wrist) has been activated off the 10-day injured […]

Kevin Durant Could Return During Postseason

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (calf) could possibly return this postseason if the Warriors are able to advance, according to head coach Steve Kerr. Durant is out for Games 6 and 7 due to a mild calf strain. It'll be interesting to see if the Warriors can win without KD, but the good news […]

Scott Kingery Will Begin Rehab Work on Monday

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Scott Kingery (hamstring) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment on Monday. Kingery has missed the last three weeks of action due to a right hamstring strain. Jean Segura is now healthy and back in action, so it'll be interesting to see where the Phillies decide to put Kingery once he returns. It […]

Michael Brantley Returns to the Lineup

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley is back in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Texas Rangers. Brantley sat out for rest on Thursday, but is refreshed and ready to go on Friday. He'll bat cleanup and play left field versus righty Lance Lynn. Brantley is going to be a fantastic DFS option against […]

Austin Meadows is Activated on Friday

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Austin Meadows (thumb) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Friday. Meadows missed almost three weeks due to a right thumb sprain. He was crushing the ball before he landed on the injured list. Meadows will lead off and play right field versus righty Domingo German on Friday. This […]

Daniel Vogelbach Sitting Versus Lefty

Seattle Mariners first baseman Daniel Vogelbach (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The lefty slugger will get the night off against left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez. Edwin Encarnacion will serve as the designated hitter and bat third, while Jay Bruce plays first base and hits fifth. Encarnacion is […]

Jesse Winker Returns on Friday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jesse Winker (quad) is back in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Winker missed Thursday's game due to tightness in his left quad. However, it sounds like Winker is ready to go after missing one game. He'll bat cleanup and play left field versus righty Dereck Rodriguez. […]

Chris Archer Throws Sim Game on Friday

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Chris Archer (thumb) threw a successful 60-pitch simulated game on Friday. It's unclear what the Pirates plan to do with Archer now after that session. They will likely wait and see how he feels on Saturday before deciding to do anything. There is a chance that Archer rejoins the starting rotation […]

A.J. Minter Optioned to the Minors

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter has been optioned to Triple-A on Friday. Arodys Vizcaino (shoulder) is out for the season, so Minter was expected to take over in the closer role. However, Minter posted a 9.82 ERA with nine walks in 11 innings of work with the Braves. Luke Jackson should get some chances […]

Chad Green Could Return This Weekend

New York Yankees relief pitcher Chad Green could be recalled by the team as early as this weekend. Green was optioned to the minors after starting the season 0-2 with a 16.43 ERA through 10 appearances. He's been pitching much better in the minors, so Green shouldn't stay down there for too much longer. However, […]
