Andrew Miller Struggles on Tuesday

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Andrew Miller struggled on Tuesday, allowing two runs and three walks. He also allowed an inherited runner to score. Miller threw 22 pitches and only nine were strikes. He's struggled since coming off the disabled list, allowing two runs in two of his three appearances. Before heading to the DL, Miller […]

Brandon Guyer Cranks a First-Inning Grand Slam on Tuesday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Brandon Guyer smashed a grand slam in the first inning of Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. He went hitless in his next four at-bats, but his fantasy owners certainly didn't mind. Guyer is a solid platoon player who could be an asset for savvy owners in deep leagues with daily lineups […]

Cleveland Re-Signs Matt Belisle

The Cleveland Indians re-signed relief pitcher Matt Belisle to a minor league contract. Belisle was with Cleveland to start the season, but after posting a 5.06 ERA in 10 2/3 innings, he was designated for assignment and elected free agency once he cleared waivers. Seemingly unable to find a better opportunity, he re-signed with the […]

Eagles Sign LaRoy Reynolds

The Philadelphia Eagles signed free-agent linebacker LaRoy Reynolds on Tuesday. Reynolds played in nine games for the Atlanta Falcons last season and served as a decent depth piece there. He will have a much harder time finding playing time on the Eagles solid defense, but he may end up a member of the special teams […]

Brandon Graham Recovering from Ankle Surgery

Philadelphia Eagles defensive lineman Brandon Graham is recovering from ankle surgery. Graham had a clean-up procedure for a high ankle sprain he suffered in Week 16. He missed Week 17 but was able to play in the playoffs without much issue. Graham had the procedure done on May 1, and the Eagles are targeting training […]

Edwin Encarnacion Back in the Lineup for Wednesday's Game

Cleveland Indians designated hitter Edwin Encarnacion (back, neck) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game. Encarnacion was forced to miss Tuesday's game due to stiffness in his neck and upper back, but it was seen more as a precautionary measure. He's back in there on Wednesday, batting fifth and serving as the team's […]

Matt Carpenter Back in the Lineup for Tuesday's Series Opener

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against the Minnesota Twins. Carpenter was on the bench for the entire weekend series against the San Diego Padres so that he'd have a chance to work on his swing. He's hitting just .145/.294/.282 so far this season, and […]

Dexter Fowler Not in Tuesday's Starting Lineup

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Dexter Fowler is not in Tuesday's starting lineup. He's struggled his way to a .146/.257/.285 line so far this season. He was out of the lineup on Sunday as well, as Harrison Bader has been playing well and will get another start to open up the series against the Minnesota Twins. […]

Bradley Zimmer Placed on the Disabled List

Cleveland Indians outfielder Bradley Zimmer was placed on the disabled list with a left rib contusion. Zimmer got hurt a week ago while making a play in the outfield, but he was trying to play through it. He'd only made one start since the injury, so he'll head to the 10-day disabled list to allow […]

Jack Flaherty Called Up to Make Tuesday's Start

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jack Flaherty was called up from Triple-A Memphis to make Tuesday's start. Flaherty is taking the rotation spot of the injured Adam Wainwright (elbow), and he should have a chance to keep the job for a while if he performs well. Flaherty is worth picking up in most fantasy formats, […]

Carlos Carrasco Works a Quality Start But Takes a Loss

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco picked up a quality start on Monday but took the loss. He allowed three runs on six hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings, striking out four. It was a solid but certainly unspectacular outing for Carrasco, who moved his record to 5-2 and his ERA to 3.66. […]

Alex Reyes Has Another Extremely Impressive Rehab Start

St. Louis Cardinals right-handed pitcher Alex Reyes (elbow) had another extremely impressive minor league rehab start on Monday, striking out 12 batters while tossing five innings and allowing just one hit and two walks. He reportedly touched 101 mph with his fastball and was sitting comfortably in the upper-90s. He was pitching for the Single-A […]

Cleveland to Make a DL Decision on Bradley Zimmer

Cleveland Indians outfielder Bradley Zimmer (chest) will work out on Monday, and the results of that workout will determine if he will be placed on the 10-day disabled list. Zimmer has only started one game in the past week since he bruised his chest colliding against the outfield wall. The workout will determine if Zimmer […]

Derek Barnett Undergoes Sports Hernia Surgery

Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Derek Barnett underwent sports hernia surgery right after the Super Bowl. He's expected to be at 100 percent and will be completely ready to go for Week 1. Barnett had 21 tackles, five sacks, one forced fumble and two fumble recoveries his rookie year. He'll likely get more work this coming […]

Tavon Austin to Get Work as a Receiver?

Dallas Cowboys new acquisition Tavon Austin will get most of his work as a receiver, according to offensive coordinator Scott Linehan. "We’ll use him for a lot of things, but he’s a receiver first," Linehan said. "Some of his skill set is as an outside receiver, but he can move around." Earlier reports stated the […]

Adam Wainwright Struggles in His Return to the Rotation; May Head Back to the DL

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright returned from the disabled list on Sunday and struggled mightily, pitching just 2 1/3 innings while allowing two runs on three hits and six walks. Wainwright only got seven outs, but threw 79 pitches. He left the game due to pain in his elbow and will likely need […]

Ryan Merritt Shut Down From Throwing

Cleveland Indians left-handed pitcher Ryan Merritt is dealing with several injuries, including issues with his knee and his shoulder. Merritt started the season on the disabled list due to his surgically-repaired knee, but recently added shoulder inflammation to his injury list. He'll be totally shut down from throwing for three-to-five days, then will be re-evaluated. […]

Corey Kluber Tosses Another Quality Start

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Corey Kluber picked up his sixth win and another quality start on Sunday, pitching seven innings while allowing two runs (none earned) on eight hits. He didn't walk anyone and struck out four. Kluber is now 6-2 with a 2.34 ERA. He's well on his way to another season of plenty […]

Yan Gomes Gets Four Hits on Sunday

Cleveland Indians catcher Yan Gomes had a great game on Sunday, finishing 4-for-5 with a home run and a double. He scored three runs and drove in three as well. It was the biggest game of the season so far for Gomes, who saw his line move up to .266/.343/.479. Always considered a defense-first catcher, […]

Francisco Lindor Has a Huge Game on Saturday

Cleveland Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor had an excellent Saturday, going 4-for-4 with two home runs and two doubles. Unfortunately, all four of his hits came with the bases empty, so even though he recorded 12 total bases, he only picked up two RBI. His batting average jumped to .311 and after a slow start to […]

Mike Clevinger Records a Win and a Quality Start on Saturday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Mike Clevinger picked up a win and a quality start on Saturday, throwing 7 2/3 innings while allowing just two runs on eight hits. He struck out five and did not issue a walk. It was Clevinger's third win and he lowered his ERA to 2.70. He's been excellent this season […]

Maliek Collins To Have Surgery Again

Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Maliek Collins will have another surgery on his broken foot. Collins had surgery on his right foot in January, then broke it during OTAs earlier this week. He's reportedly been given different timetables for recovery, including "maybe three months and ready at some point during camp." It seems like Collins should […]

Tyler Olson Placed on Paternity Leave

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Tyler Olson was placed on the paternity leave list on Friday. He'll miss the weekend series against the Kansas City Royals. This transaction allowed Cleveland to activate Andrew Miller from the disabled list, but it is only a temporary fix. With a 6.75 ERA in 15 games, Olson might be the […]

Bradley Zimmer Out of Friday's Starting Lineup

Cleveland Indians outfielder Bradley Zimmer is not in Friday's starting lineup. Zimmer missed a couple of games earlier this week due to shoulder and hip issues, but he was back in there on Wednesday. Greg Allen will get the start in center field. Zimmer should be back in there on Saturday.

Andrew Miller Activated From the Disabled List

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Andrew Miller (hamstring) was activated from the disabled list on Friday. A strained hamstring cost Miller a couple of weeks, but he should be back to being one of baseball's best relievers right away. The Cleveland bullpen struggled a bit without him, so it won't just be fantasy owners that are […]

Carson Wentz Will Be "Ready When He's Ready"

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) will be "ready when he's ready." Pederson went on to explain that the team would not be rushing Wentz back in his recovery from a torn ACL. He did add, "Right now, we’re encouraged with the progress he’s making." While the goal is […]

Rico Gathers Fully Recovered From His Concussion

Dallas Cowboys tight end Rico Gathers is fully recovered from the concussion that cost him all of the 2017 season. He also dealt with jaw and neck injuries that occurred in a preseason game. Gathers was receiving tons of hype, as he made seven catches for 106 yards and two touchdowns in two preseason games […]

Dak Prescott Could Join the $100 Million Quarterback Club

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott could be joining the ranks of NFL quarterbacks making over $100 million soon. The Dallas Morning News considers Prescott a strong candidate for a contract extension after this season. Prescott had a disappointing 2017 season, but the Cowboys clearly still see him as their franchise signal caller. Assuming he rebounds […]

Bud Norris Returns With His Eighth Save of the Season

St. Louis Cardinals closer Bud Norris (triceps) returned to the mound on Thursday and locked down his eighth save of the year.

Miles Mikolas Pitches Well on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals starter Miles Mikolas pitched well on Thursday, allowing one run on five hits in 6 2/3 innings. He recorded four strikeouts and just one walk.
