Yandy Diaz Records Five Hits, Drives in Four in Win Over Cardinals

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman/designated hitter Yandy Diaz was at his best in the team's 11-7 win over the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium on Sunday in the series finale, going 5-for-6 with a double, four RBI, and two runs scored as the designated hitter out of the leadoff spot. It's a reminder that […]


"No Doubt" That Geno Smith is Jets' Starting Quarterback

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn told Judy Battista of the NFL Network that there is "no doubt about it" that Geno Smith will be the team's starting quarterback in 2026. "Listen, he's done it. I mean, those years in Seattle, when he was, I think, Comeback Player of the Year. Man, he was […]


49ers Hopeful George Kittle Will be Ready for Week 1

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said that tight end George Kittle (Achilles) is doing "very good" in his recovery from a torn Achilles in the postseason and that the team is hopeful that he'll be ready to play in Week 1 of the 2026 season, according to Cam Inman of the Bay Area […]


Tommy Edman, Enrique Hernandez Take Batting Practice

Los Angeles Dodgers utility men Tommy Edman (ankle) and Enrique Hernandez (elbow) were both able to take batting practice on the field on Sunday and are progressing well, manager Dave Roberts told Jack Harris of The California Post. The hope is that Edman can return in late May, but the team is also optimistic that […]


Jason Adam Hopes to Return When First Eligible

San Diego Padres right-handed reliever Jason Adam (quadriceps), who started the 2026 season on the 15-day injured list after having surgery last September to fix a ruptured quadriceps tendon, is hoping to be activated off the IL when he's first eligible to return on April 6, according to Matt Levine of Sports Illustrated. Adam probably […]


Eric McAlister Diagnosed With Fractured Foot

TCU wide receiver Eric McAlister (foot) ran a 4.56-second 40-yard dash during his school's pro day earlier this week but was then forced to stop working out after running 15 routes, according to Tony Pauline of Yahoo Sports. Doctors diagnosed McAlister with a Jones fracture in his foot, according to sources. McAlister previously had a […]


Andy Reid Doesn't Offer Timeline on Patrick Mahomes

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid acknowledged quarterback Patrick Mahomes' (knee) progress from a torn ACL and LCL suffered late last year, but he did not commit to an exact recovery timeline, according to Judy Battista of the NFL Network. Mahomes posted a video of a throwing session on Wednesday, and he is hoping […]


Carlos Estevez Unlikely to See High-Leverage Opportunities in Near Future

Kansas City Royals right-handed reliever Carlos Estevez (ankle) was in a walking boot on Sunday morning and will have his ankle contusion re-evaluated, according to Anne Rogers of MLB.com. Manager Matt Quatraro said that he would be "surprised" if Estevez would be available on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves. And if Estevez was available, Quatraro […]


Jeferson Quero Making MLB Debut on Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero is making his major-league debut on Sunday against the visiting Chicago White Sox and left-hander Anthony Kay. Quero will do the catching for right-hander Brandon Sproat and will bat seventh. The Brewers surprisingly called up Quero to the big-league roster on Saturday from Triple-A Nashville to help give them […]


Jeremy Pena Back in Lineup for Series Finale

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena is back in the starting lineup for the team's series finale on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Angels, batting out of the leadoff spot against right-hander Jack Kochanowicz. Pena did not play in the Opening Day loss on Thursday while recovering from a fractured finger that he suffered earlier […]


Jacob deGrom Feels "Much Better," Hopeful he Can Start This Week

Texas Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom (neck) said his stiff neck feels "much better" on Sunday, according to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com. deGrom played catch from 120 feet, which he couldn't do on Saturday before he was scratched from his first start of the 2026 season against the Philadelphia Phillies. The veteran hurler still feels it […]


Josh Allen "Good to Go" After Foot Surgery

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (foot) required surgery to fix a broken bone in his right foot following his eighth season in the NFL, but new head coach Joe Brady told NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero that Allen is "good to go." Allen should be fine for all of Buffalo's offseason workouts as the Bills […]


Deshaun Watson in "Pole Position" to be Week 1 Starting QB?

The NFL Network's Mike Garafolo thinks that Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (Achilles) is in the "pole position" to be the team's starter for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season. Shedeur Sanders finished his rookie season as the Browns' starter under center, but he was very inconsistent down the stretch and has plenty to […]


Edwin Uceta Expected to Begin Rehab Assignment Soon

Tampa Bay Rays right-handed reliever Edwin Uceta (shoulder) threw a live batting practice session on Friday and has another one scheduled for Tuesday, March 31, according to MLB.com. If he gets through those unscathed, Uceta should start a minor-league rehab assignment soon after that. The 28-year-old was put on the 15-day injured list on March […]


Carlos Estevez Allows Six Runs in Season Debut, Blows Save

Kansas City Royals right-handed closer Carlos Estevez had a rough night on Saturday in the 6-2 loss to the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park. Estevez was hit with a blown save and his first loss of the 2026 season after surrendering six runs on four hits (one home run) while walking two in one-third of […]


J.P. Crawford Could Return From Shoulder Injury Soon

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford (shoulder) went through a light workout under the eye of infield coach Perry Hill and the team's athletic training staff before the game on Saturday against the Cleveland Guardians, according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. Crawford is scheduled to remain with the team through the weekend, and if all goes […]


Tanner Bibee Feels Good After Saturday's Bullpen Session

Cleveland Guardians right-hander Tanner Bibee (shoulder) threw a 26-pitch bullpen session on Saturday and felt good, according to Tim Stebbins of MLB.com. Manager Stephen Vogt said that Bibee is still day-to-day, but said that "today was a really good day for Tanner." Bibee was pulled from his Opening Day start on Thursday night against the […]


Griffin Jax Already on the Closer Hot Seat?

Tampa Bay Rays right-handed reliever Griffin Jax has put himself on the closer hot seat early in 2026 after blowing each of his first two save opportunities as he begins his first full year with the team. In Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the St. Louis Cardinals, Jax blew the save and took his first […]


Shea Langeliers Hot to Begin Season, Hits Grand Slam in Loss on Saturday

Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers is showing his high-end power early in 2026, homering for the third time in just the second game in Saturday's extra-inning loss to the hosting Toronto Blue Jays. Langeliers went 2-for-4 with a grand slam, one walk, and a strikeout in the team's 8-7 loss at the Rogers Centre. In Friday […]


Dylan Cease Fans 12 in Blue Jays Debut on Saturday

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease looked excellent in his debut for the team in Saturday's 8-7 win in 11 innings over the Athletics for their second walk-off win in the first two games of the 2026 season. Cease was on point for a great first impression for the home faithful, allowing just one earned […]


Kyler Murray's Dynasty Value Gets New Life With Move to Minnesota

Former Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray's (foot) fantasy football value in dynasty/keeper leagues was trending down in recent years and fell to a low point in 2025, when he appeared in just five games due to a sprained foot. The 28-year-old former first overall pick in 2019 out of Oklahoma threw for just 962 yards, […]


Is Rachaad White the New RB1 for the Commanders?

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White wanted a bigger role in the backfield, which is why he left the Buccaneers in free agency, and he could get his wish in 2026 with the Washington Commanders. The 27-year-old former third-rounder (91st overall) in 2022 out of Arizona State averaged 3.9 yards per carry for […]


Stefon Diggs Still a Free Agent With April Approaching

The New England Patriots released veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs on March 11, and the 32-year-old veteran pass-catcher remains on the open market at the tail end of March. The Patriots are reportedly open to Diggs returning at a reduced cost, but that's unlikely to happen after they signed former Green Bay Packers receiver Romeo […]


Alvin Kamara's Workload Expected to Look Drastically Different in 2026

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee), who has been the team's lead back for the last eight seasons, finished the year on Injured Reserve again in 2025 and appears headed for a drastically reduced role in 2026 after the Saints signed Travis Etienne Jr. to a four-year, $52 million contract in free agency. […]


Rob Refsnyder Batting Leadoff for Mariners on Saturday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Rob Refsnyder is serving as the team's designated hitter and will bat in the leadoff spot on Saturday against the Cleveland Guardians and left-hander Joey Cantillo at T-Mobile Park, according to MLB.com. Refsnyder is known as a lefty killer in his career, and he's the only Mariners player who has faced Cantillo […]


Sean Murphy Doing Baseball Activities, Could Begin Rehab Assignment Soon

Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy (hip) is doing all baseball activities and could start a minor-league rehab assignment soon, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com. Murphy wasn't ready for the start of the 2026 season after having surgery last September to fix a labral tear in his right hip. Because of the severity of his […]


Hunter Gaddis Starting Rehab Assignment on Saturday

Cleveland Guardians right-handed reliever Hunter Gaddis (forearm) is starting his minor-league rehab assignment on Saturday with Triple-A Columbus, according to Arthur Kinney of Next Year in Cleveland. Gaddis landed on the 15-day injured list to begin the 2026 season with right-forearm tightness. It's not a serious injury, so Gaddis could be ready to come off […]


Masataka Yoshida to Start Three of Next Five Games

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that outfielder/designated hitter Masataka Yoshida will start three of the team's next five games, per Christopher Smith of MassLive.com. Cora feels comfortable putting Yoshida in left field when they begin a series in Houston against the Astros next week. However, Yoshida is not in the starting lineup for […]


Jac Caglianone Making First Start on Saturday Against Braves

Kansas City Royals first baseman/outfielder Jac Caglianone sat on the bench in the Opening Day loss to the Atlanta Braves on Friday with tough left-hander Chris Sale on the mound, but he will make his 2026 starting debut on Saturday at Truist Park, according to MLB.com. Caglianone is starting in right field and is batting […]


Jeremy Pena Resting on Saturday

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena is getting the day off on Saturday against the Los Angeles Angels at Daikin Park, according to MLB.com. Pena did not start on Opening Day on Thursday due to a fractured finger that he suffered earlier this spring while preparing for the World Baseball Classic, but he made his 2026 […]
