Josh Reddick Will Lead Off on Thursday

Houston Astros outfielder Josh Reddick will lead off and play right field versus righty David Hess on Thursday. Reddick did not play on Wednesday, but is back and batting first for this one. He's posting a .952 OPS over the last two weeks, so Reddick should be a reliable fantasy option on Thursday. Hess has […]

George Springer is Out on Thursday

Houston Astros outfielder George Springer (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. This will be the second game in a row that Springer has missed. It's unclear if the Astros are just resting Springer for the playoffs or if his leg and thumb issues are still bothering him. […]

Chris Davis Remains Out of the Lineup on Thursday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis (rest, neck) is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Houston Astros.

Willson Contreras is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Caratini can be […]

Mookie Betts Sitting Out Game 2

Boston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Game 2 versus the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. Betts played in the first game, but will sit this second one out.

J.D. Martinez is Sitting Out Game 2

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez (rest) is sitting out Game 2 of the doubleheader versus the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday. The Red Sox are not playing for much, so they will rest Martinez in the second game. Rafael Devers will serve as the DH and bat cleanup versus righty Jimmy Yacabonis. Devers hit two […]

Jonathan Schoop is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Jonathan Schoop (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Arcia is heating up […]

Travis Shaw is Back in the Lineup on Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Shaw sat out on Tuesday against the left-handed starting pitcher. He'll bat cleanup and play second base versus righty John Gant. Shaw should be worth a look against Gant who has not pitched well lately.

Duffy was given a routine off day on Tuesday, but is rested and ready to go on Wednesday. He'll bat second and play third base versus righty Masahiro Tanaka. DFS players should probably avoid […]

Jay Bruce is Out on Wednesday

New York Mets first baseman/outfielder Jay Bruce (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves.

San Francisco Giants second baseman Joe Panik (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Panik will receive a day off on Tuesday against the left-handed starter. Abiatal Avelino will bat eighth and play second base versus lefty Robbie Erlin. Avelino can be avoided for fantasy purposes.

Khris Davis is Out of the Lineup on Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Khris Davis (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The Athletics clinched a postseason berth on Monday, so they will rest some of their regulars on Tuesday.

Stephen Piscotty is Sitting Out on Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Stephen Piscotty (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners.

Kyle Seager is Sitting Out on Tuesday

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Oakland Athletics. Seager is not hitting .219 with a .272 OBP this season, so it's been a disappointing season to say the least. Kristopher Negron will play third base and bat sixth versus lefty Brett Anderson. Negron […]

Elvis Andrus, Adrian Beltre Return to the Lineup on Tuesday

Texas Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus and third baseman Adrian Beltre return to the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels.

Brian Dozier is Sitting Out on Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Brian Dozier (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Hernandez […]

Paul Goldschmidt Returns to the Lineup on Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Goldschmidt was given the day off on Monday, but is back and ready to go on Tuesday. He'll bat cleanup and play first base against righty Walker Buehler.

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Asdrubal Cabrera (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies. This will be the fourth game in a row that Cabrera has not started. Scott Kingery will bat seventh and play shortstop versus righty Chad Bettis. DFS players can go ahead and avoid Kingery.

DFS players can go ahead and avoid […]

Matt Duffy is Sitting Out Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Matt Duffy (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees.

Willy Adames Returns to the Lineup

Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Willy Adames (illness) returns to the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees. Adames was forced to miss back-to-back games due to an illness.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Kevin Kiermaier (back, shoulder) returns to the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees.

Evan Gattis is Out of the Lineup on Tuesday

Houston Astros catcher Evan Gattis (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Gattis was hot at the plate, but cooled off on Monday going 0-for-3 in that one. He'll sit this game out, but he's still a valuable fantasy asset for leagues that are still going. Jose […]
