DeAndre Jordan Returning To Denver

Denver Nuggets center DeAndre Jordan is reportedly sticking around with the organization for at least one more season. The veteran big man has reportedly agreed to a one-year, $3.6 million deal for the 2024-2025 season. Jordan should serve as the primary backup center to Nikola Jokic. However, that role usually doesn't come with a ton […]

Patrick Williams Expected To Sign Extension With Bulls

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams reportedly intends to sign a massive extension with the organization. The Bulls extended a qualifying offer to Williams, but it sounds like the two sides have agreed on a new deal. Williams intends to sign a five-year, $90 million contract to remain in Chicago long term. The Bulls have high […]

Brandon Drury Continues To Sit Out

Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. This marks the ninth game in a row that Drury has missed due to an illness. It's unknown why Drury is still on the active roster and hasn't been placed on the injured list. […]

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Knocks In Six Runs

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has been on a tear at the plate lately. His success continued during Saturday's game against the New York Yankees. Guerrero went 3-for-5 with a home run and six RBI in the win. He kicked off the game with a two-run homer in the opening frame. He […]

Royce Lewis Absent On Saturday

Minnesota Twins infielder Royce Lewis is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. This appears to be a routine rest day for the 25-year-old superstar. The oft-injured infielder has been struggling to stay healthy, so it's not surprising to see the Twins giving him extra rest days. Jose Miranda […]

Juan Soto Avoids Serious Injury

New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto (hand) was scratched from Saturday's lineup after suffering an injury during Friday's game. The 25-year-old injured himself while sliding headfirst at home plate on Friday. The good news is that Soto appears to have avoided a serious injury. Yankees' manager Aaron Boone told reporters that the X-rays on Soto's […]

Luke Raley Returning On Saturday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Luke Raley (shoulder) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Raley makes his return after missing each of the last two games due to shoulder soreness. He'll bat fifth and cover left field against right-hander Pablo Lopez on Saturday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups […]

Chris Bassitt Excellent On Saturday

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Chris Bassitt was sharp on the mound during Sunday's outing against the New York Yankees. The right-hander allowed one run (zero earned) with eight strikeouts over six innings of work in the win. This marks the third straight outing that Bassitt has thrown a quality start. The 35-year-old takes a […]

George Springer Exits Early On Friday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (hand) was removed early during Friday's game against the New York Yankees. Springer was pulled from the contest after getting hit by a pitch on the wrist. He underwent imaging on his hand that came back negative. That is good news but doesn't officially mean Springer will be completely […]

Drew Smith Likely To Undergo Season-Ending Surgery

New York Mets relief pitcher Drew Smith (elbow) is expected to require Tommy John surgery. This is a tough break considering how well Smith has been pitching for the Mets this season. He recently went down with an elbow sprain but it sounds like the issue is more severe. The expectation is Smith wouldn't pitch […]

Steven Matz Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Steven Matz (back) has been transferred from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list on Friday. This news comes just two days away from Matz being eligible to come off the injured list. He recently had a setback with a strained back, so it looks like the southpaw is going […]

Josh Jung To Be Brought Along Slowly

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (wrist) is having a tough time getting back to full health. The young slugger wants to get back in the lineup, but he's uncertain when that'll be because his wrist isn't 100 percent yet. The Rangers are hopeful that Jung can begin swinging the bat this weekend. When healthy, […]

Michael Harris II Making Progress

Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II (hamstring) is reportedly making progress in his recovery from a Grade 2 hamstring strain. The 23-year-old has been taking swings with the bat and throwing but has yet to be cleared for running. Harris has been out since the middle of June and it's tough to put a timetable […]

A.J. Minter To Throw On Sunday

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter (hip) is scheduled to throw on the mound for Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday. The left-hander is working his way back from left hip inflammation. If everything goes well, Minter should be able to rejoin the Braves bullpen after Sunday's outing. This doesn't mean much in terms of fantasy baseball. […]

Randy Vasquez Removed Early On Friday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Randy Vasquez (forearm) was forced to exit early during Friday's start against the Boston Red Sox. Vasquez was pitching well before getting hit in the forearm by a line drive. It seemed like Vasquez was fine, but the Padres pulled him from the contest as a precaution. The expectation is […]

Devin Williams To Throw On Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Devin Williams (back) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session on Saturday. The 29-year-old reportedly felt great during his first bullpen session. The hope is that Williams can progress to a live batting practice session, assuming this bullpen session goes well. It sounds like Williams is making progress but is still […]

Brandon Drury Remains Absent

Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Detroit Tigers. This marks the eighth game in a row that Drury has missed due to an undisclosed illness. The good news is that it sounds like Drury is making progress towards a return. In the […]

Ramon Laureano Held Out On Friday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ramon Laureano (back) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The 29-year-old is dealing with back soreness, but is hopeful to get back on the field on Saturday. In the meantime, Luke Williams will draw the start in left field and bat ninth versus southpaw […]

Byron Buxton Getting A Day Off

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Seattle Mariners. This appears to be nothing more than a routine rest day for Buxton. This is odd timing considering Buxton went 3-for-4 with a three-run home run on Thursday. This is likely part of the Twins plan […]

Carlos Correa Back In The Lineup

Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (wrist) has returned to the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Correa was forced to exit early on Thursday after getting hit in the wrist by a pitch. Afterwards, Correa said he was fine and that he'd play on Friday. That appears to be true as […]

Jake Fraley Absent Again

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jake Fraley (calf) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. The 29-year-old was scratched from Wednesday's lineup and sat out of Thursday's contest as well. He underwent an MRI exam to determine the severity of the injury, but the results aren't known yet. For […]

Jeimer Candelario To Miss Third Straight Game

Cincinnati Reds third baseman Jeimer Candelario (knee) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. The switch-hitter will miss his third game in a row due to right knee tendinitis. The organization hasn't mentioned anything about a stint on the injured list, but the Reds might be forced […]

Masyn Winn Sitting Out On Friday

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. This appears to be nothing more than a routine rest day for Winn. The 22-year-old was banged up recently, but this looks like a regular rest day. Brandon Crawford will draw the start at shortstop […]

Seth Curry Waived By Hornets

Charlotte Hornets guard Seth Curry has been waived by the organization on Friday. The Hornets decided Curry wasn't worth the $4 million deal, but have expressed interest in bringing back the veteran guard. It's hard to imagine Curry returning to Charlotte as he'll likely want to play for a more competitive organization considering he's at […]

P.J. Tucker Accepts Player Option

Los Angeles Clippers forward P.J. Tucker has accepted his $11.5 million player option for next season. This seems like a no-brainer for Tucker who probably wasn't going to get a better offer in free agency. The 39-year-old is still a reliable defender, but Tucker doesn't offer much upside on the offensive end of the ball. […]

Bruce Brown Remaining With Raptors

Toronto Raptors forward Bruce Brown will stick with the organization after they've accepted his $23 million player option for the 2024 season. It's a little odd to see the Raptors bringing back Brown considering he was average at best during his time in Toronto last season. On a one-year deal, Brown should be a valuable […]

Jalen Smith To Decline Player Option

Indiana Pacers forward Jalen Smith is expected to decline his $5.4 million player option for the 2024 season. This doesn't come as a surprise considering Smith should be able to earn much more than that in free agency. Smith posted career highs in field goal percentage and three-point percentage last season. He took a solid […]

Chris Paul Pushes Back Guaranteed Contract

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul has agreed to push back the date to his $30 million guaranteed contract for the 2024-2025 season. The veteran guard will push back the date until late Sunday night. Doing that gives the Warriors a chance to explore trade partners for the All-Star guard. Paul certainly isn't in his […]

James McArthur Tosses Scoreless Ninth

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher James McArthur was called upon to hold a one-run lead versus the Cleveland Guardians on Thursday. The right-hander tossed a scoreless ninth inning to earn his 14th save of the season. McArthur has been a little shaky this season with a 4.41 ERA across 31 appearances. He's not an elite […]

Corbin Burnes Earns Quality Start

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Corbin Burnes was able to keep his strong season going against the Texas Rangers on Thursday. The right-hander allowed one run while striking out five batters over seven innings of work in the win. Burnes did give up nine hits, but he was able to limit the damage to only one […]
