Brandon Crawford May Start On Sunday

San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford (hamstring) may be available to start on Sunday, according to skipper Gabe Kapler. Crawford was experiencing left hamstring tightness during Friday's outing against St. Louis, which forced him to exit prematurely. He did see an at-bat on Saturday, so it appears as if he is trending in the right […]

Matt Chapman Continues To Struggle

Oakland Athletics third baseman Matt Chapman went 1-for-3 during Saturday's loss to Cleveland, finishing with one hit and one run. The 28-year-old struck out as well, bringing his total to 114 whiffs on the year. Chapman has regressed somewhat from what he produced last season, currently batting just .226 while connecting for a hit during […]

Tim Locastro Exits Saturday’s Contest

New York Yankees outfielder Tim Locastro exited Saturday's matchup against the visiting Boston Red Sox. Although the exact nature for his early departure has yet to be revealed, it is believed he injured his knee while making a catch out in left field. More information regarding his status moving ahead is anticipated soon. In the […]

Zack Wheeler Starting On Sunday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler will be on the hill against Miami on Sunday. Wheeler, a Cy Young candidate, has been reliable this year, currently posting a 6-5 record through 18 starts (119 innings) to go along with a 2.26 ERA and 145 strikeouts. The righty demolished Marlins' hitters back on May 18, finishing […]

Derek Law Lands On Injured List

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Derek Law (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The 30-year-old recently had his contract purchased from Triple-A St. Paul. The designation is retroactive to July 14, so he could be back relatively quickly. However, it's probable many fantasy managers aren't waiting eagerly for his return, primarily after […]

Juan Minaya Has Contract Selected By Twins

The Minnesota Twins selected the contract of Juan Minaya from St. Paul on Saturday night. The transaction adds depth to the bullpen, primarily with the collective absences of Derek Law (shoulder), Danny Coulombe (personal), and Randy Dobnak (finger). In four Major League appearances this season, the 30-year is currently sitting on a 4.26 ERA. It's […]

Jake Bauers Won’t Play Against Angels

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jake Bauers (illness) won't play on Saturday evening against the Los Angeles Angels. The 25-year-old is currently dealing with an illness, although his exact symptoms have yet to be revealed. Nonetheless, it's likely he isn't in many fantasy lineups at the moment, primarily due to his recent struggles in July after posting […]

Beau Burrows Called Up

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Beau Burrows was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul on Saturday. The 24-year-old is needed to fill some spots in the staff, specifically for Randy Dobnak (finger), Derek Law (shoulder), Danny Coulombe (personal). Burrows, who was claimed off waivers in June after spending time in Detroit, is currently sitting on an atrocious […]

Brandon Crawford Could Be Available Off Bench Saturday

San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford (hamstring) could be available off the bench on Saturday night against the Cardinals. The 34-year-old exited Friday's matchup after dealing with left hamstring tightness, but the latest revelation is positive news. Although he shouldn't be considered a starting option while he is on the bench, his day-to-day designation is […]

Angel Perdomo Called Up From Nashville

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Angel Perdomo was called up from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday. The move comes after Devin Williams (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list because of discomfort, although Perdomo is nowhere near an equal replacement. The southpaw has spent time in the big club already this year, currently sitting on a […]

Devin Williams Lands On Injured List

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Devin Williams (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The 26-year-old righty is dealing with elbow discomfort, a surprise revelation after he reportedly complained about the ailment while throwing on Friday. Williams has played well this season, currently sporting a 6-1 record to go along with 52 strikeouts, […]

Randy Dobnak Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Randy Dobnak (finger) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Saturday. No surprise here, and the move is a way to open up room on the team's roster. It's unlikely many fantasy managers will be impacted, primarily since he isn't on many rosters anyway because of his struggles this season, […]

Chris Paul Denies Injury

Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (hand) denied reports that he is injured. "I'm fine," reported Paul, who suffered a right-hand injury during the Western Conference Finals. Although the veteran has balked at questions regarding a potential ailment, his recent play hasn't supported the concept, recently scoring just 10 points during the Game 4 loss to […]

Kevin Love Still Dealing With Calf Issue

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (calf) recently withdrew from Team USA ahead of the Summer Olympics in Tokyo. The 32-year-old veteran continues to deal with a right calf strain, an injury that limited him to just 25 games last season. Love has a career average of 18 points and 11 boards while shooting 37 percent […]

RJ Barrett Won't Be Included In Trade Talks

New York Knicks forward RJ Barrett is reportedly not to be included in trade talks during the offseason. With Collin Sexton rumored to be on the Knicks' radar, the organization has made it clear that Barrett isn't an option. The 21-year-old former Duke Blue Devil averaged 17.6 points while shooting over 40 percent from deep […]

Zach Collins Likely To Become A Free Agent

Portland Trail Blazers forward Zach Collins is expected to enter free agency during the offseason. With the organization not anticipated to tender a qualifying offer, the three-year pro could draw interest from teams looking to fill a void. However, his health has been an issue, with a left foot injury relegating him to just 11 […]

Kawhi Leonard Still Drawing Interest From Teams

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) is reportedly on the radar for many teams ahead of the 2021-22 campaign. Although there is a chance Leonard doesn't suit up next season after he had surgery to repair a partially torn ACL in his right knee, many organizations are still willing to sign him to a […]

Damian Lillard Denies Trade Request Rumors

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard has denied reports that he will seek a trade sometime within the next few days. Nonetheless, that doesn't mean he is guaranteed to remain in Portland, primarily since he hasn't decided his future with the organization moving toward the 2021-22 campaign. The 31-year-old has reportedly been frustrated with the […]

Jake Arrieta Won’t Return From Injured List On Saturday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jake Arrieta (hamstring) will not return from the 10-day injured list when eligible. The 35-year-old veteran could have made it back on Saturday, although it appears that he isn't quite there yet after landing on the 10-day injured list over a week ago because of right hamstring tightness. While he has […]

Shane Bieber Still Not Throwing

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Shane Bieber (shoulder) has yet to begin throwing. While skipper Terry Francona reported that the 26-year-old has been working with heavy balls, he still has a way to go in his progression before a trip back to the bump is a possibility. Bieber was playing relatively well before succumbing to a […]

Alex Blandino Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

Cincinnati Reds infielder Alex Blandino (hand) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Friday. He was originally a resident of the 10-day version, and although nothing has changed regarding his condition, the move clears a spot for the returning Michael Lorenzen (shoulder). The 28-year-old has been out of commission for about a month now […]

Buster Posey Almost Ready To Return

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey (thumb) is nearing a return. The veteran caught a bullpen session on Thursday, encouraging news after being diagnosed with a left thumb bruise over a week ago. The 34-year-old has been remarkable, batting .328, with 66 hits, 35 runs, 28 RBI, and 12 homers throughout 201 at-bats this season. […]

Blake Snell Starting Saturday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Blake Snell (illness) will be on the bump for Saturday's meeting against the Washington Nationals. Snell has been on the shelf for over a week due to a bout with gastroenteritis resulting from food poisoning. Nonetheless, the southpaw's return can't come soon enough, primarily with the team dealing with injuries […]

Danny Santana Reports For Rehab Assignment

Boston Red Sox outfielder Danny Santana (quadriceps) reported to Triple-A Worcester on Friday to begin a rehab stint. Santana strained his left quad during a contest against the Los Angeles Angels over a week ago. However, with a miserable .167 average this season, it's unlikely the 30-year-old has many fantasy managers awaiting his return. He […]

FanDuel MMA, UFC Vegas 31 DFS Lineup Picks - Makhachev vs. Moises

UFC 264 had plenty of excitement, although the main event between Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor didn't live up to the hype. After McGregor broke his leg and could not continue, it is safe to assume that a fourth encounter between these two could occur somewhere down the line, primarily since bad blood remains. However, […]

De’Aaron Fox Unlikely To Be Traded

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox is unlikely to be traded this offseason. The 23-year-old averaged a career-high 25.2 points to go along with 7.2 assists and 1.5 steals last season. Although the former Kentucky Wildcat has been wrapped up in recent trade rumblings involving Ben Simmons, Fox is reportedly not on the table. While Simmons […]

Bradley Beal Enters Safety Protocols

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal entered health and safety protocols related to COVID-19 on Wednesday. It isn't known if Beal tested positive for the Coronavirus or if he was just exposed, but his future with Team USA moving ahead is uncertain as a result of the latest news. The 28-year-old, who has recently been involved […]

Anthony Edwards To Be Evaluated In Minnesota

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Anthony Edwards (ankle) has left Las Vegas and will be evaluated at the team's facility. The 19-year-old injured his ankle during a recent scrimmage against Team USA last Wednesday. Although any injury is alarming, primarily since Edwards was originally thought to have hurt his knee, he is expected to be fine and […]

Mike Conley A Priority For Utah

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley is expected to be a priority for the team during the offseason. The veteran, who will be an unrestricted free agent, averaged 16.2 points, 6.0 assists, and 1.6 steals while shooting 41.2 percent from distance during the 2020-21 campaign but has been plagued by consistent hamstring issues throughout the last […]

Jayson Tatum Considered Day-To-Day

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) didn't suit up for Tuesday's exhibition against Argentina. Tatum, who will represent Team USA during the Summer Olympics, is currently battling right knee soreness. Although he is expected to be fine, it is something for fantasy managers, especially dynasty formats, to keep an eye on moving ahead.
