Stephen Strasburg To See A Specialist Monday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (neck) will visit a specialist on Monday. The 33-year-old recently reported an "uncomfortable" feeling in his neck during a recent throwing session, so the team will continue to be mindful of his rehab efforts moving forward. Nonetheless, with the latest development, the veteran may miss more time than originally […]

Franmil Reyes Out On Sunday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Franmil Reyes (back) won't play on Sunday during the series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays. The 26-year-old is currently considered day-to-day because of back spasms, so there is a chance he could make it back on Tuesday against the Cardinals. Yu Chang will enter the starting lineup, batting seventh.

Tyler Anderson Likely To Be Traded Soon

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Tyler Anderson is expected be traded within the next week. Anderson is currently sitting on a 5-8 record and a 4.35 ERA throughout 20 starts this season, but his attractive salary makes him an ideal target for many teams, specifically the Dodgers and Phillies. There is a chance the southpaw makes […]

Sandy Alcantara Activated On Sunday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara (personal) was activated from the bereavement list on Sunday. He threw a bullpen session on Sunday morning, and he is likely to be on the bump for the team's upcoming series against the Baltimore Orioles. The 25-year-old has been a consistent member of the team's rotation, although his 5-9 […]

Braxton Garrett Optioned To Jacksonville

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Braxton Garrett will head back to Triple-A Jacksonville. Garrett's most recent big club stint didn't last long as he recently appeared in an emergency outing on Saturday against the San Diego Padres, logging the win while fanning 10 batters. With Sandy Alcantara (personal) activated from the bereavement list on Sunday, a […]

Jeff McNeil Available Off The Bench On Sunday

New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil (leg) is available off the bench for Sunday's series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays. The 29-year-old hasn't been in the lineup since leaving Wednesday's matchup against the Cincinnati Reds because of left leg muscle fatigue. However, skipper Luis Rojas indicated a chance he could start on Monday […]

Freddy Galvis To Play In Rehab Games Soon

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Freddy Galvis (quadriceps) will participate in rehab games sometime within the next few days. Galvis has been out for about a month because of a right calf strain, and the latest update keeps him in line with the July 30 anticipated return date. The 31-year-old still has value, although not as much […]

Justin Watson Expected To Miss Four Months

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Justin Watson (knee) is expected to miss four months. The 25-year-old landed on the PUP list after having a procedure done on his knee, and it means he will miss at least the first six games of the 2021 campaign. Nonetheless, Watson is in danger of not making the team, […]

Tom Brady “Looks Great” At Camp

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (knee) was on the field for the first day of training camp on Sunday. "Oh, he looks great," head coach Bruce Arians reported when asked about how the seven-time Super Bowl winner appeared. Brady had minor surgery to repair the MCL in his left knee back in February, an […]

Deshaun Watson Will Report To Texans Camp

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson will report to training camp on Sunday. The star signal-caller requested a trade back in January, and since then, he has been caught up in controversy after 23 lawsuits were filed against him for alleged sexual assault. However, under the new collective bargaining agreement, Watson would face a $50,000 fine […]

Taylor Hearn To Start On Sunday

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Taylor Hearn will take to the hill on Sunday against the A's. Jordan Lyles will get some more rest, which opens the door for Hearn to pick up a rare spot-start against Oakland. The 26-year-old lefty currently owns a 2-3 record and a 4.70 ERA throughout 30 games this season, so […]

Braxton Garrett Fans 10 In Emergency Start

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Braxton Garrett was splendid on Saturday, taking the win against the Padres. The 23-year-old got called up from Jacksonville for this one, replacing Trevor Rogers (back), who found a spot on the 10-day injured list. Overall, Braxton worked his way through seven innings before calling it a day, allowing two runs […]

Patrick Sandoval Allows Only One Hit On Saturday

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Patrick Sandoval was dominant on Saturday against Minnesota. The 24-year-old recorded the win, taking a no-hitter into the ninth before it was canceled by a double from Brent Rooker. Overall, it was a fantastic outing from the southpaw, striking out 13 batters in total. After logging a loss in each […]

Drew Smyly To Be Evaluated On Sunday

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Drew Smyly (knee) will be evaluated in Philadelphia on Sunday. The veteran exited after only four innings during Saturday's matchup against the Phillies because of left knee pain. Although the team hasn't ruled him out for his next start, at least not yet, fantasy managers will undoubtedly be anxiously awaiting an […]

Ryan Weathers Returns On Saturday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Ryan Weathers (ankle) returned on Saturday against the Marlins. Making his first appearance since landing on the 10-day injured list with right ankle inflammation, the 21-year-old pitched four scoreless innings, allowing two hits while striking out four. He also was impressive as a hitter, cracking a 421-foot solo shot to […]

Jordy Mercer Injured Again

Washington Nationals shortstop Jordy Mercer (calf) was placed on the 10-day injured list. The 34-year-old veteran is currently dealing with a left leg strain, and it's even more unfortunate considering he was just activated from the IL over a week ago after spending time on the shelf with a right quad strain. Although Mercer has […]

R.J. Alaniz Placed On Injured List

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher R.J. Alaniz (calf) landed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The righty left Friday's matchup against St. Louis because of a left calf strain, which isn't pleasant news, primarily since he just got the big league call nearly a week ago. Nonetheless, the 29-year-old hasn't done much this season during […]

Sean Poppen Promoted From Durham

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Sean Poppen was recalled from Triple-A on Saturday. The 27-year-old righty was acquired from Pittsburgh back in May for cash and has played relatively well during his limited time in Durham. However, he doesn't have much fantasy value, so managers can surely keep him off the roster unless he finds […]

Mark Payton Traded To New York

The Mets acquired outfielder Mark Payton from the Reds on Saturday. The 29-year-old was dealt for cash and will head to Syracuse for a stint in Triple-A. He hasn't done much during his limited appearances in Cincinnati this season, batting .182 while racking up four hits in 22 at-bats. Payton may find time in the […]

Drew Smyly Exits Against Phillies

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Drew Smyly (knee) exited Saturday's matchup against Philadelphia. The 32-year-old southpaw lasted just four innings before leaving with left knee pain, allowing three hits while striking out three batters. Smyly was replaced by Josh Tomlin, with more on the veteran's status likely to come sometime soon.

Mitch White Recalled From Oklahoma City

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Mitch White was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday. He will take the place of Jimmie Sherfy (elbow), who is currently on the 10-day injured list because of elbow inflammation. The 26-year-old has a 3.93 ERA throughout 13 appearances on the big league bump this season. Nonetheless, he doesn't […]

Jimmie Sherfy Lands On Injured List

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Jimmie Sherfy (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list. The 29-year-old right-hander is currently dealing with elbow inflammation, unfortunate news considering he was recently claimed off waivers. Nonetheless, Sherfy hasn't played well during his brief tenure in L.A. so far, currently sitting on a 4.15 ERA throughout four outings […]

Brandon Drury Recalled From Syracuse

New York Mets infielder Brandon Drury was recalled from Triple-A on Saturday. Drury will provide bench depth, although there is a chance for a more prominent role if injuries pop up somewhere down the line. He struggled initially during his initial run with the big club but began to turn things around in May by […]

Jeff McNeil Not An Injury List Candidate

New York Mets second baseman Jeff McNeil (leg) was scratched from the starting lineup on Saturday against the Blue Jays. The 29-year-old continues to deal with left leg muscle fatigue, an ailment that has kept him out since exiting Wednesday's matchup against the Cincinnati Reds. Fortunately, McNeil isn't being considered for a spot on the […]

Brendan Rodgers Out Again On Saturday

Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers isn't starting during Saturday's matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Rodgers didn't play on Friday either, although not much has been revealed as to why. Garrett Hampson will enter the starting lineup once again, with the 26-year-old compiling a hit and two runs during the series opener against L.A. […]

Alejo Lopez Recalled From Louisville

Cincinnati Reds infielder Alejo Lopez was recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Friday. Lopez played sparingly for the big club this season but fared relatively well, compiling five hits and three runs throughout 17 at-bats. Although the 25-year-old isn't expected to see consistent playing time, he is someone to keep an eye on moving ahead, primarily […]

Alex Cobb Exits Friday’s Game Against Twins

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Alex Cobb exited Friday's matchup against the Twins. It's unknown why he left, although he was escorted off the mound with a trainer before starting the sixth inning. The 33-year-old has been an effective fantasy option, currently owning a 7-3 record along with a 3.96 ERA and 80 strikeouts. More […]

Jeff McNeil Likely Out On Saturday

New York Mets infielder Jeff McNeil (leg) is unlikely to start on Saturday against the Blue Jays. He wasn't available on Friday either as he continues to deal with left leg muscle fatigue. Although he is technically not injured, skipper Luis Rojas indicated that the team would take a cautious approach before allowing him to […]

Gary Sanchez Leaves Game With Back Spasms

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (back) exited Friday's matchup against the Boston Red Sox. The veteran had the plug pulled in the sixth inning because of back spasms, an unfortunate development considering how well he has played lately, smacking three dingers throughout the last seven games. Sanchez was replaced behind the dish by Rob […]

Robert Stock Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

New York Mets relief pitcher Robert Stock (hamstring) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Friday. The right-handed veteran recently landed on the 10-day version only a few days ago because of a hamstring strain. However, with the Metropolitans' recent acquisition of Rich Hill, a spot on the roster had to be opened up. […]
