Cal Raleigh Heading to Injured List With Oblique Strain

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (oblique) will be placed on the 10-day injured list for the first time in his career on Thursday with a right-oblique strain, according to Adam Jude of The Seattle Times. In a corresponding move, the M's are recalling catcher Jhonny Pereda from the minors. Veteran Mitch Garver will do the […]


Francisco Lindor Healing, But Still No Timetable for his Return

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor's (calf) MRI exam showed that his strained calf is healing, but there remains no timetable for his return, manager Carlos Mendoza told Steve Gelbs of SNY. The skipper said that Lindor will now move into the strength-training portion of his recovery, although he still looks to be quite a […]


Francisco Alvarez has Knee Surgery, Expected to Miss Eight Weeks

New York Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez (knee) had surgery on his right knee on Thursday morning to fix his torn meniscus, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. The Mets expect Alvarez to be on the longer end of his recovery timetable now, so a full eight weeks, which should take him into mid-July around the […]


Jordan Walker in Line for Contract Extension?

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker has been a post-hype breakout so far in 2026, hitting .298/.378/.570 with 11 home runs and 30 RBI at 23 years old. He's tied for 13th in the league in fWAR (1.8), and his massive jump in OPS from .584 last year to .947 this year has caught the […]


Christian Yelich Being Held Out for Second Straight Game With Back Injury

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder/designated hitter Christian Yelich (back) is absent from the starting lineup for the second straight day in Thursday's series finale against the visiting San Diego Padres, according to MLB.com.

Brady Singer Listed as Sunday's Probable Starter for Reds

The Cincinnati Reds have listed right-hander Brady Singer (foot) as their probable starter for Sunday's series finale against the hosting Cleveland Guardians, according to MLB.com. Singer has bounced back nicely after getting hit by a comebacker in his latest start on Tuesday against the Washington Nationals, when he allowed three earned runs on three solo […]


Cal Raleigh Sitting on Thursday With Side Injury

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (side) is unsurprisingly absent from Thursday's lineup against the division-rival Houston Astros after aggravating his side in Wednesday night's game, according to MLB.com.

Juan Soto Back in Lineup on Thursday After Injury Scare

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto (ankle) is back in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale at Citi Field, serving as the designated hitter and batting third against Detroit Tigers right-hander Keider Montero, according to MLB.com.

Giants Remain Committed to Their Core Stars

The San Francisco Giants remain committed to their core stars and have had "zero internal conversations" about trading first baseman Rafael Devers, third baseman Matt Chapman, and/or shortstop Willy Adames, according to Robert Murray of FanSided. The Giants are optimistic that they can get their star players back on track and turn their season around. […]


Casey Mize Could Return and Start on Saturday

Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (groin) is eligible to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list on Friday, and he could return to the team's starting rotation to make the start on Saturday against the Toronto Blue Jays, according to Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. Mize will be a riskier fantasy option this weekend […]


Byron Buxton Continues Power Surge With Two Home Runs Wednesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton had the 19th multi-homer game of his career in Wednesday's 9-5 loss to the visiting Miami Marlins at Target Field, and he's now up to 15 home runs on the year. Buxton finished the contest 2-for-4 at the plate out of the leadoff spot for the Twins with two solo […]


Connor Prielipp Being Pushed Back, Twins Managing his Innings

The Minnesota Twins will push back left-handed pitching prospect Connor Prielipp's next start a day or two to help manage his innings, according to Bobby Nightengale of The Minneapolis Star Tribune. Zebby Matthews will be called up from the minors to start Thursday's series finale against the Miami Marlins. The 25-year-old Prielipp has looked good […]


Cal Raleigh Exits With Apparent Side Injury on Wednesday Night

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (side) left the game on Wednesday night against the Houston Astros in the bottom of the ninth inning, according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. Mitch Garver replaced Raleigh behind the plate after the left-handed slugger was seen grabbing at his right side in the eighth inning. Before leaving, the struggling […]


Mickey Moniak's Breakout Continues With Five-RBI Night Against Pirates

Colorado Rockies outfielder Mickey Moniak continues to be money for fantasy managers in his second season with the Rockies.

Giancarlo Stanton Not Cleared to Ramp Up Running Program

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton's (calf) latest MRI exam has not allowed the team to clear him to start ramping up his running program, according to Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. Stanton is on the 10-day injured list with a calf strain and doesn't appear close to rejoining […]


Jeremy Pena Dealing With Sore Neck on Rehab Assignment

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring, neck) is dealing with a sore neck on Wednesday after colliding with a baserunner during his minor-league rehab game on Tuesday with Double-A Corpus Christi, manager Joe Espada told Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle. Pena was scheduled to serve as the designated hitter for Corpus Christi on Wednesday, […]


X-Rays Come Back Negative on Juan Soto's Ankle

Updating a previous report, X-rays came back negative on New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto's right ankle on Wednesday night, and he is considered day-to-day, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Soto fouled a ball off his ankle in the third inning and was eventually pulled in the seventh frame. Before leaving, the All-Star outfielder […]


Jacob Misiorowski Pulled Early With Possible Leg Injury

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski (leg) had another fantastic outing on Wednesday at home against the visiting San Diego Padres, but he was removed before the start of the eighth inning when something happened when he started to warm up, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Head athletic trainer Brad Epstein and manager Pat Murphy […]


Jets Agree to Terms With Veteran Receiver Tim Patrick

The New York Jets agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal with veteran free-agent wide receiver Tim Patrick on Wednesday after he visited with the team, a source told Rich Cimini of ESPN.

Malik Nabers Undergoes Second Knee Surgery

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) underwent a second surgery on his right knee to remove scar tissue that was causing stiffness, sources told Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Duggan was told that the second surgery took place "multiple weeks ago," and it was described as a "clean-up." It's not expected to impact […]


Dolphins, De'Von Achane Agree to Four-Year Contract Extension

The Miami Dolphins and Pro Bowl running back De'Von Achane agreed to a four-year, $68 million contract extension on Wednesday to make him the third-highest-paid RB (behind Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey) at $17 million per year with $32 million guaranteed, multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. New general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and […]


Ronald Acuna Jr. Won't Return on Current Homestand

Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss said on Wednesday that outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (hamstring) is doing well with his agility and running, but he will not be activated from the 10-day injured list on the team's current homestand, which runs through this Sunday, May 17. The Braves are being cautious with the superstar outfielder after […]


Braxton Garrett to Take Open Spot in Marlins Rotation

Kyle Sielaff of Marlins.TV reports that the Miami Marlins are calling left-hander Braxton Garrett from Triple-A Jacksonville to take the vacant spot in the starting rotation that was created when the team placed left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling (elbow) on the injured list on Wednesday. Garrett will make his 2026 season debut for the Fish […]


Pete Fairbanks Returns From Injured List

The Miami Marlins announced on Wednesday that they reinstated right-handed reliever Pete Fairbanks (hand) from the 15-day injured list and placed left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling (elbow) on the 15-day IL in a corresponding move with a left-elbow UCL sprain. Fairbanks is back after landing on the shelf on April 28 with nerve irritation in […]


Shohei Ohtani Not Hitting for Dodgers on Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani, who is on the mound for Wednesday's contest against the division-rival San Francisco Giants, will take a day off from hitting, according to MLB.com. Teoscar Hernandez is serving as the designated hitter and will bat sixth against Giants left-hander Robbie Ray. Manager Dave Roberts promised earlier this week […]


Brandon Nimmo Back in Lineup After Rolling his Ankle

Texas Rangers outfielder Brandon Nimmo (ankle) is starting in right field and will bat in the two-hole for Wednesday's contest against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Ryne Nelson, per MLB.com. Nimmo sprained his left ankle and was pulled from Tuesday's win over Arizona early, but he avoided any structural damage and was cleared to […]


Christian Yelich Out With Back Tightness on Wednesday Night

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder/designated hitter Christian Yelich (back) is not in the team's starting lineup for Game 2 of their series at home against the San Diego Padres due to back soreness, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. "His back was a little sore. He wants to play, but I'm not going to get into this, […]


Trea Turner "Under the Weather," Out on Wednesday

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner (illness) is "under the weather" and is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's contest at Fenway Park against the Boston Red Sox, interim manager Don Mattingly told Phillies reporter Paul Casella. Turner could be available to pinch hit or pinch run off the bench, if needed, which means there […]


Chandler Simpson Back in Leadoff Spot for Rays on Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Chandler Simpson (leg) is starting in left field and is batting leadoff for Wednesday's game in Toronto against the hosting Blue Jays and right-hander Dylan Cease, according to MLB.com.
