Patrick Corbin Dealing With Back Spasms

Washington Nationals left-hander Patrick Corbin (back) was pulled from his start early on Tuesday against the Atlanta Braves due to back spasms.

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Reyes Moronta picked up his first save of the season in a 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 2 of a doubleheader on Tuesday.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel (toe) said he broke his toe on Tuesday against the Boston Red Sox and will miss the rest of the 2022 season.

Shane McClanahan Expects To Make Next Start

Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Shane McClanahan (neck) fully expects to make his next scheduled start after leaving the game early on Tuesday against the Houston Astros with left neck tightness.

Nelson Cruz Still Out Wednesday Against Braves

Washington Nationals designated hitter Nelson Cruz (eye) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Atlanta Braves. Cruz is dealing with left eye inflammation and will miss his seventh straight game. The good news is the 42-year-old isn't expected to land on the injured list, so fantasy managers must continue to consider him […]

Brandon Marsh Injured Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (knee) left Tuesday's game early against the Toronto Blue Jays with "left knee discomfort," and he'll be evaluated further. Marsh went 0-for-1 with a strikeout in the contest before being replaced by Dalton Guthrie in right field. Matt Vierling shifted from right field to center field. It's now the second […]

Shane McClanahan Leaves Early With Shoulder Discomfort

Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Shane McClanahan (shoulder) was removed from his start early on Tuesday against the Houston Astros due to left shoulder discomfort after manager Kevin Cash and athletic trainer Mike Sandoval went to check on him.

Bobby Hart Suspended For One Game

Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Bobby Hart has been suspended one game for unsportsmanlike conduct following the team's Monday night win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 2.

Justin Britt Placed On NFI List Tuesday

The Houston Texans placed center Justin Britt (personal) on the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list on Tuesday.

Akiem Hicks Expected To Miss A Month

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Akiem Hicks (foot) tore the plantar fascia in his foot in the Week 2 win over the division-rival New Orleans Saints and is now expected to be out for a month, according to a source. It's a blow to the interior of Tampa's defensive line moving forward, starting with a […]

Cowboys Waive Dennis Houston

The Dallas Cowboys waived undrafted rookie wide receiver Dennis Houston on Tuesday. This could be a sign that the Cowboys are expecting Michael Gallup (knee) to make his 2022 season debut in Week 3 on Monday night against the New York Giants after he tore his ACL in January. If Houston clears waivers and isn't […]

Trea Turner Back In Game 2 Lineup

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner (back) is back at shortstop and is hitting second in the batting order for Game 2 of the team's doubleheader against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Seattle Mariners rookie outfielder Julio Rodriguez (back) is back in center field and is hitting leadoff on Tuesday against the Oakland Athletics and left-hander JP Sears.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Eric Lauer (elbow) is trending towards coming off the injured list to start on Friday against the Cincinnati Reds on the first day he's eligible to return.

The Minnesota Twins placed starting pitcher Sonny Gray (hamstring) on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday with a right hamstring strain and also reinstated right-hander Trevor Megill from the COVID injured list.

Trea Turner Exits Game 1 Early Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner (back) left the first game of a doubleheader early against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday after he was hit in the back by a throw in the fifth inning. With the Dodgers having already clinched the National League West, it's highly unlikely that Turner will play in the nightcap […]

Garrett Whitlock Needs Surgery, Shut Down For The Year

Boston Red Sox right-hander Garrett Whitlock (hip) will undergo hip surgery next week and will be shut down for the rest of the 2022 season. The Red Sox are hoping that he'll be ready to go again for spring training next year. There's a good chance that the 26-year-old was pitching through pain for much […]

Spencer Strider Dealing With Sore Oblique

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider (oblique) is dealing with a sore oblique and will have his next start pushed back a few days. As a result, Bryce Elder will get the nod on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals, and left-hander Max Fried will face the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday. Strider was originally lined up […]

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk (hip) is back in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Philadelphia Phillies and right-hander Kyle Gibson, serving as the designated hitter while batting cleanup. Kirk missed nearly a week with his injury, but he's back in there for fantasy managers on Tuesday. The 23-year-old right-handed hitting backstop is […]

Marco Luciano Joins Double-A For Postseason

After winning a High-A title, San Francisco Giants shortstop prospect Marco Luciano has joined Double-A Richmond for the playoffs. It will allow Luciano to get some extra at-bats after a back injury kept him out for most of the summer. The 21-year-old is the team's top prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and it sets him up […]

Tyler Anderson Starting Game 2 On Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Tyler Anderson will be activated from the paternity list on Tuesday and will start in Game 2 of a doubleheader against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Anderson is very attractive in fantasy as part of what will be a two-start week against Arizona and the St. Louis Cardinals. The 32-year-old veteran southpaw has […]

Frankie Montas Goes On Injured List

The New York Yankees placed right-hander Frankie Montas (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday.

Gunnar Henderson Batting Leadoff Against Tigers

Baltimore Orioles rookie infielder Gunnar Henderson is starting at third base and batting leadoff for the first time in his career on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers and left-hander Joey Wentz. Even against a left-handed pitcher, the O's trust the 21-year-old left-handed hitter to bat leadoff. He's impressed so far in his first 64 major-league […]

Yordan Alvarez Sitting Against Lefty Tuesday

Houston Astros outfielder Yordan Alvarez is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays and left-hander Shane McClanahan. Alvarez is receiving a normal day of rest against the tough left-hander. He's been a must-start in fantasy all year, but especially of late, as he's hitting .370 (20-for-54) with six home runs, […]

Trevor Story Remains Sidelined Tuesday

Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (heel) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds. Story hasn't played since Sept. 11 due to a sore heel, but he did do some running on Sunday, so hopefully he'll be back in the lineup at some point this week. In his first […]

Brandin Cooks Has Contract Restructured

The Houston Texans restructured wide receiver Brandin Cooks' deal on Tuesday, and his new salary cap figure is now at $9.755 million, which is down from $10.309 million. Cooks has yet to find the end zone for the Texans and his fantasy managers through the first two games of the 2022 season, but he's drawn […]

Jake Kumerow Has Two Catches Monday Night

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Jake Kumerow saw additional playing time in Monday's 41-7 rout of the Tennessee Titans in Week 2 with Gabe Davis (ankle) inactive.
