Aaron Judge, DJ LeMahieu Out Of Lineup Thursday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge and second baseman DJ LeMahieu are both getting the day off Thursday against Phillies right-hander Zach Eflin after both players took the field for both legs of Wednesday’s doubleheader. Mike Tauchman enters the lineup for Judge and takes over the leadoff spot -- which makes him a high-upside DFS […]


Nick Markakis To Make First Start Of Season Thursday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Nick Markakis will man right field and bat fifth during Thursday’s matchup against Blue Jays right-hander Nate Pearson. Markakis, who had initially planned to sit out the 2020 year due to COVID-19 concerns, forces Ender Inciarte to the bench and Marcell Ozuna to the designated hitter spot. Having recorded an out in […]


Rougned Odor Expected To Rejoin Lineup During Weekend

Texas Rangers manager Chris Woodward said Thursday that he hoped to have second baseman Rougned Odor back in the fold either Friday or Saturday against the Angels. Odor was absent from Thursday’s lineup, marking four consecutive games that he has been sidelined due to a right oblique strain. Even as Odor has gotten off to […]


Michael Brantley Rejoins Lineup Thursday After Absence

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley is back among the starting nine for Thursday's contest versus the D-backs and right-hander Zac Gallen. Brantley has been dealing with a quad ailment and will return to the lineup as the designated hitter Thursday, a role that he is reprising for the fifth time this season. He has collected […]


Gio Gonzalez Slated For Tough Matchup Thursday

Chicago White Sox left-handed pitcher Gio Gonzalez faces his former team, the Brewers, on Thursday in a tough matchup for those banking on the southpaw’s performance. Gonzalez excelled to the tune of a 3.20 ERA across 24 appearances for Milwaukee over the past two seasons, but in addition to facing a team that has a […]


Zach Eflin Expected To Be Capped Around 60 Pitches Thursday

Philadelphia Phillies right-handed pitcher Zach Eflin is not expected to have a long leash Thursday against the Yankees. As Eflin has been ramping up to make his season debut, he got up to as many as 60 pitches last week, which could prevent him from going deep into his start. Combine the righty's potential pitch […]


Jo Adell Scratched From Lineup Thursday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jo Adell is dealing with a tight quad which will keep him out of Thursday’s lineup against the Mariners and right-hander Taijuan Walker. One of the game’s premier prospects, Adell has gotten off to a 2-for-8 start in his big league career, with four strikeouts. Justin Upton and Brian Goodwin, who […]


Salvador Perez Hammering Ball Early Despite Slow Start

Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez has compiled just a .693 OPS through his first 13 games in 2020, which nearly sets him on pace for a career low. But a deeper look at the metrics shows that Perez is actually scorching the ball, tied for the second-most hard hit balls (20) in the Majors. […]


Eric Lauer To Join Rotation Friday Against Reds

Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitcher Eric Lauer will make his first start of 2020 on Friday against the Reds after having reeled off an impressive six-strikeout outing back on July 26. Lauer made 52 starts for San Diego over the past two seasons, compiling a 4.40 ERA. The vast majority of his metrics from 2019 are […]


Kyle Lewis Out Of Lineup Thursday Against Angels

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis is out of the starting nine for the first time this season for Thursday’s matchup against Angels right-hander Dylan Bundy. The rookie has gotten off to a scorching hot start in 2020, entering play Thursday leading the Majors with 20 hits. While he has struck out in exactly one-third of […]


Kwang Hyun Kim Enters Starting Rotation, Closer Spot Open

St. Louis Cardinals left-handed pitcher Kwang Hyun Kim has been tabbed to take the rotation spot left voided by Carlos Martinez, thereby opening up Cardinals closer’s duties. Kim served predominantly as a starter during his time in Korea, but opened the year in the St. Louis bullpen as injuries and absences piled up. Having compiled […]


Chad Kuhl, Steven Brault Likely To Continue Piggyback Roles

The Pittsburgh Pirates have essentially knotted right-handed pitcher Chad Kuhl and left-hander Steven Brault at the hip when it comes to appearing in games during 2020. Brault has started both games that the two have appeared in, with Kuhl following him, a move that manager Derek Shelton approved for at least one more start, although […]


FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/6/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Thursday represents one of the more tumultuous slates of the young 2020 season due to the uncertainty surrounding many starting pitchers across the league. There is no runaway ace that should dominate cash or GPP games alike, paving the way for lots of uncertainty and diverse lineups. Due to the nature of the pricing of […]


Rui Hachimura Goes Cold From Field Across 39 Minutes

Washington Wizards power forward Rui Hachimura saw a game-high 39 minutes during Wednesday’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, but was unable to cash in on his time on the floor, shooting just 2-for-11 overall. Over his last three outings, Hachimura has shot 8-for-29, failing to reach double figures in scoring in any of those games. […]


Jerome Robinson Pours In 19 Points Off Bench In Loss

Washington Wizards shooting guard/small forward Jerome Robinson continued to lead the team’s second unit against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, dropping 19 points on 5-for-11 shooting. Since entering the bubble, Robinson has been the Wizard who arguably has benefited most from the absence of Bradley Beal and Davis Bertans, staples of the team’s offense at […]


Nick Burdi Shut Down For 2020 Year, Bucs Bullpen In Flux

Pittsburgh Pirates right-handed pitcher Nick Burdi has been placed on the 45-day injured list due to a right elbow injury, ending his 2020 campaign just as it was beginning. Having notched his first big league save back on July 28, Burdi was holding down the Pirates’ closer’s role for the time being, having showcased a […]


Nick Margevicius Set To Enter Rotation Saturday Versus Rockies

Seattle Mariners left-hander Nick Margevicius has made three appearances out of relief in 2020, but with Kendall Graveman (neck) set to miss multiple starts, Margevicius will enter the starting five this weekend, set to face Colorado at T-Mobile Park. The 24-year-old is particularly experienced with the Rockies from his time with the Padres last year, […]


Josh James Headed For Bullpen Role To Bolster Relief Corps

Houston Astros right-handed pitcher Josh James made two shaky starts to kick off 2020 and manager Dusty Baker announced Wednesday that he would be heading to the bullpen for the time being. James has walked a Major League-high 11 batters in his six innings this year, and with Houston’s bullpen trying to keep itself above […]


A.J. Puk Nearing Return To Mound, Set For Relief Role

Oakland Athletics left-handed pitcher A.J. Puk has been throwing at 75 feet and is on the precipice of getting back on the mound. Manager Bob Melvin would not commit to whether or not Puk, who is dealing with a shoulder ailment, would return in 2020, but said that if he did get back, it would […]


Zach Davies Tabbed To Start Friday Versus D-backs

San Diego Padres right-hander Zach Davies will be on the hill for Friday’s contest against Arizona, essentially allowing the Padres to skip a spot in the rotation. Davies has provided solid production through his first two starts in 2020, both of which have lasted five innings on the road. Normally able to reduce the barrels […]


Billy Hamilton Records 300th Career Stolen Base Wednesday

New York Mets outfielder Billy Hamilton drew the start Wednesday and immediately made an impact by swiping his first bag since being acquired earlier in the week. Hamilton, who made a name for himself as an electric base runner during his time with the Reds from 2013-18, has now amassed 300 stolen bases in his […]


Thomas Bryant Notches Third Consecutive Double-Double

Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant continued his masterful development inside the NBA bubble, compiling his third straight double-double during Wednesday’s loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. Bryant battled All-Star Joel Embiid and managed to finish with 19 points, 10 rebounds, and four blocks. Prior to the restart of the NBA season, Bryant attempted more than two […]


Ben Simmons Departs Early With Knee Injury

Philadelphia 76ers point guard/power forward Ben Simmons made it just 23 minutes into Wednesday’s contest against the Washington Wizards before sustaining a knee injury that forced him from the game. While he was seen walking away from the court without crutches, he appeared to be in considerable discomfort near the conclusion of the contest. In […]


Joel Embiid Returns To Double-Double Column In Win

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid compiled 30 points and 11 rebounds during Wednesday’s victory over the Wizards, now having averaged just shy of 33 points per game inside of the bubble. Embiid packed the stat sheet by adding three assists, three steals and two blocks across his 33 minutes, continuing to deliver contributions in ancillary […]


Andrew Benintendi, Jackie Bradley Jr. Both Sit Wednesday

The Boston Red Sox are loading up their lineup Wednesday against Rays left-hander Ryan Yarbrough with right-handed bats by benching left-handed-hitting outfielders Andrew Benintendi and Jackie Bradley Jr. The move allows Jose Peraza to start in left field and Kevin Pillar to move into the leadoff spot in the batting order. Benintendi has been in […]


Jeff McNeil Out Of Starting Lineup For Third Straight Day

New York Mets third baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil is out of Wednesday’s lineup against the Nationals and right-hander Max Scherzer with what McNeil himself as described as a “very minor” intercostal strain. McNeil’s absence will be his third straight, paving the way for J.D. Davis to hold down the hot corner. A key cog at the […]


Alex Reyes Recalled To Big League Roster

St. Louis Cardinals right-handed pitcher Alex Reyes will join the Major League roster ahead of Friday’s game against the Cubs. Reyes, who rejoined the team in July after having tested positive for COVID-19, has been unable to remain healthy enough to impact the Cardinals since 2016. Heralded as one of the game’s premier pitching prospects, […]


Mike Moustakas Not In Starting Lineup Wednesday

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Mike Moustakas is out of the starting nine for Wednesday’s contest against the Cleveland Indians as he continues to battle a left quad bruise. Josh VanMeter will hold down the keystone in Moustakas’ absence with Eugenio Suarez slotting back into the cleanup spot in the order. Moustakas came out of the […]


Ariel Jurado Acquired By Mets, Joins Alternate Camp

Right-handed pitcher Ariel Jurado was a primetime prospect coming up through the Rangers’ organization, but after two lackluster big league seasons, the 24-year-old was designated for assignment, whereby the Mets claimed him Wednesday. Despite having 44 appearances (26 starts) to his resume, Jurado was reassigned to the team’s alternate training site. Not much jumps off […]


Juan Soto In Starting Lineup Wednesday For First Time In 2020

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto is back among the club’s starting nine for Wednesday’s contest against the Mets and right-hander Rick Porcello. Soto missed each of the team’s first 12 games due to positive COVID-19 tests, but he has since been cleared and will hit cleanup in a favorable setting against a righty that has […]
