Ian Anderson Has Upside Against The Mets

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Ian Anderson will be on the bump against the Mets on Thursday. While Anderson's efficiency hasn't been captured by his 5-4 record this season, his 3.42 ERA makes him a viable option in nearly all fantasy formats. In June, the righty played relatively well, sporting a 3.71 ERA while averaging over […]

Christian Yelich Disappoints Again On Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich didn't play well during Wednesday's win over the Cubs. The 29-year-old went hitless against Chicago, going 0-for-5 while striking out three times. The veteran continues to disappoint and is a shade of what he was just a few seasons ago, currently batting .247 throughout 154 at-bats. While Yelich is playing […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Doubtful For Game 5

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is listed as doubtful on the league's official injury report ahead of Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Thursday night.

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) is expected to miss the remainder of the Western Conference Finals.

Trae Young Working To Play In Game 5

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (foot) is continuing his rehab effort as he works his way toward a potential Game 5 return. The 22-year-old is currently dealing with a bone bruise in his right foot, which kept him from seeing the floor during Game 4 on Tuesday night. Despite Young's shoddy shooting numbers, he has […]

Devin Booker Available On Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (nose) is listed as available for Wednesday's matchup against the Clippers. Booker suffered a nasal fracture after colliding with Patrick Beverley in Game 2. He struggled throughout the following two games as a result, but he bounced back on Monday night to finish with 31 points while shooting 4-for-6 from […]

Cam Reddish Likely To See More Minutes

Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish was going to be a part of the team's rotation in Game 4 against the Bucks, regardless of Trae Young's (foot) availability, according to head coach Nate McMillan. Reddish was an infrequent presence throughout the first three games of the series, but he made up for it on Tuesday by […]

Kawhi Leonard Out For Game 6

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't play in Game 6 against Phoenix. This isn't news, primarily since the veteran is rumored to be dealing with a significant right knee injury. Without Leonard in the mix, it should continue to be business as usual, with Paul George monopolizing the offensive chances. Reggie Jackson, who […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Leaves Game 4 Due To Injury

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) left Tuesday's matchup against the Hawks. The multi-time MVP suffered a hyperextended left knee in the second half, and he required assistance back to the locker room, where he was subsequently ruled out for the rest of the game. The Freak had a productive outing before his premature departure, […]

Juan Soto Goes Yard In Win Over Tampa

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto helped lead his team to a 4-3 win over the Rays on Tuesday night. It didn't take long for the 22-year-old to make a dent on the fantasy end, blasting a 378-foot shot to right field off of Rich Hill in the first inning. He also struck out twice, but […]

Tyler Naquin Unlikely To Start On Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (wrist) is unlikely to start on Tuesday against San Diego. The 30-year-old is currently dealing with right wrist soreness, and he also wasn't in the lineup on Monday, opening the door for Shogo Akiyama to get some extra work out in center field. Although Naquin might be available off the […]

Richie Martin Moving Toward A Return

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Richie Martin (wrist) is expected to start hitting by the middle of July. The oft-injured speedster has been plagued by a broken left wrist, which he sustained during an outing at Triple-A Norfolk over a month ago. At the moment, Martin has little-to-no fantasy value in anything outside of dynasty formats. However, […]

J.B. Bukauskas Sent To Reno For Rehab

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher J.B. Bukauskas (elbow) was sent to Triple-A Reno to begin a rehab stint. The 24-year-old has been out since mid-may, so it appears as if he is nearing a return to the big club. However, he struggled before going down with the flexor strain, posting a 1-1 record and an 8.31 […]

Daniel Bard Picks Up Another Save

Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Daniel Bard picked up another save on Monday in the win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. After blowing an opportunity on Friday evening against the Brewers, the right-hander picked up his 11th save of the year. With six in the month of June alone, Bard should be on the radar for the […]

Tylor Megill Starting Again On Tuesday

New York Mets pitcher Tylor Megill will get the start on Tuesday against Atlanta. The 25-year-old was recently called up from Triple-A Syracuse and made his first career start against the Braves last Wednesday. He held his own in that one, logging just over four innings of work and allowing two runs while striking out […]

Dylan Bundy Exits Monday’s Game With Heat Exhaustion

Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Dylan Bundy (illness) exited Monday's matchup against the Yankees and was replaced by Jose Suarez. Bundy was observed vomiting while on the bump before his premature departure after nearly two innings of work, and he was officially diagnosed with heat exhaustion due to the 90-degree New […]

Tee Higgins To “Play A Huge Role” In Offense

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is "going to play a huge role" this season, according to offensive coordinator Brian Callahan. While most fantasy managers saw enough from the former Clemson wideout during his rookie campaign to retain their excitement, things became a bit uneasy after Ja'Marr Chase was selected with the No. 5 overall […]

Taylor Widener To Throw In Sim Game On Monday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Taylor Widener (groin) will throw 55 pitches in a simulated outing on Monday. Widener has been a frequent member of the injury report this season after dealing with multiple stints on the 10-day because of a groin strain. Although the 26-year-old appears to be moving in the right direction, he still […]

Madison Bumgarner Tosses Another Pen Session

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner (shoulder) participated in another bullpen session on Sunday. The veteran continues to increase his activity level after being diagnosed with shoulder inflammation at the beginning of June. The southpaw is currently sitting on a 5.73 ERA and could be back at some point in July. However, with the team […]

Ketel Marte Doesn’t Start On Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder/outfielder Ketel Marte (hamstring) wasn't in the starting lineup for Sunday's clash against San Diego. The 27-year-old has been dealing with hamstring tightness, and after he missed a few games already during the week because of it, he prematurely exited Saturday's matchup against the Padres. Marte is considered day-to-day, but given his consistent […]

Cole Irvin Dominant On Sunday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Cole Irvin was dominant during Sunday's outing over the Giants. The southpaw took the win against San Francisco, recording eight strikeouts throughout eight innings of work while allowing just three hits (0 ER). After racking up four losses in May, the 27-year-old has picked things up in June by adding three […]

Corey Seager Is Still Without A Timetable

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager (hand) may not return in July, as previously reported. The recent news is undoubtedly frustrating for the fantasy managers who have been without him since mid-May because of a fractured right hand. Skipper Dave Roberts indicated that the 27-year-old is still dealing with soreness, and until that goes away, […]

Victor Robles Day-To-Day

Washington Nationals outfielder Victor Robles (knee) is considered day-to-day. Robles was nailed by a pitch during Sunday's outing against Miami, which resulted in his premature exit. Fortunately, X-rays were negative, and he was officially diagnosed with a bruised right knee. The 24-year-old was replaced in the lineup against the Marlins by Gerardo Parra, who could […]

Josh Naylor Diagnosed With Broken Leg

Cleveland Indians outfielder Josh Naylor (leg) was officially diagnosed with a broken leg.

Mitchell Robinson Putting In Work This Offseason

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson has added weight this offseason, recently posting a video of a workout session. The 23-year-old reported that he now weighs 275 pounds, a 23-pound increase from his 2020-21 mark.

Chris Paul May Decline Player Option

Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul has reportedly been telling those close to him that he plans to opt-out at the end of the season, whenever that may be. The 36-year-old is rumored to forgo his $44 million player option and inquire about a two-year contract, whether it be in Phoenix or elsewhere. Paul has enjoyed […]

Chauncey Billups Expected To Be Named Blazers Coach

Chauncey Billups is rumored to be named the next head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers. The 44-year-old played nearly two decades but made his mark as a member of the Detroit Pistons, where he helped the team capture an NBA title back in 2004. He also served as an assistant to Ty Lue in […]

Jamal Murray Remains Without A Return Date

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) does not have a timetable for a return. The 24-year-old has been a critical component for the team's success throughout the last few years, and he most recently averaged 21.2 points while shooting 40.8 percent from deep last season before succumbing to an ACL tear in his left knee […]

Knicks Reportedly Interested In Lonzo Ball

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball is rumored to be on the Knicks' radar for the 2021-22 campaign. The addition of Ball will unquestionably fill a void for a New York team that is certainly lacking a suitable option in the backcourt, especially after the team went with many different options in the starting lineup […]
