Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy went off in the 6-3 win over the division-rival San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night.

Tyler Wells Activated And Starting Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Tyler Wells (oblique) is being activated from the 15-day injured list and will start on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Wells only threw 31 pitches in his minor league rehab start, so there's a good chance he won't have a long leash against a tough opponent in his first start […]

Starling Marte Out In Game 1 Wednesday

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte (hand) is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 of a doubleheader on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Marte was hit by a pitch on his right hand on Tuesday and is undergoing tests, but skipper Buck Showalter said, "so far, so good." It appears that the 33-year-old […]

New York Mets starting pitcher Max Scherzer (oblique) is going on the 15-day injured list and won't make his next scheduled start on Friday against the Miami Marlins. Scherzer had to be pulled early from his last start on Saturday with what manager Buck Showalter called fatigue in his left side. The good news is […]

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) missed another practice on Tuesday.

Walker did some running and catching […]

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) plans to play in the Week 1 regular season opener on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers.

Wade Miley Activated And Starting Tuesday

The Chicago Cubs activated left-hander Wade Miley (shoulder) from the injured list on Tuesday and designated pitcher Luke Farrell for assignment in a corresponding move.

The Chicago Cubs placed catcher Willson Contreras (ankle) on the 10-day injured list with a left ankle sprain on Tuesday and reinstated Michael Hermosillo from the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Anthony Rizzo Heading For Injured List

New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo (back, head) will be placed on the injured list, according to skipper Aaron Boone. First baseman Ronald Guzman will be added to the active roster in a corresponding move on Wednesday.

Zack Wheeler Plays Catch Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler (forearm) played a little catch on Tuesday. Wheeler was pulled from his originally scheduled start on Tuesday against the Miami Marlins with renewed soreness in his right forearm. If he doesn't have any setbacks after throwing on Tuesday, he could move to a bullpen session later this week. The […]

Hunter Greene Making Another Rehab Start Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds rookie right-hander Hunter Greene (shoulder) is making another minor league rehab start on Tuesday for Triple-A Louisville. Greene threw scoreless innings in his first rehab outing last Thursday and he recovered well enough to make another start early this week. Look for the 23-year-old to build his pitch count up even more after […]

Jonathan India Back In Leadoff Spot

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India (knee) is back at second base and is batting leadoff on Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs and left-hander Wade Miley. India was injured and had to leave the second game of a doubleheader on Sunday, but he was able to heal up during the team's off day on Monday. […]

Avisail Garcia Activated From Injured List

The Miami Marlins activated outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) from the injured list on Tuesday and optioned Peyton Burdick to Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move.

The 31-year-old veteran will be […]

Jon Berti Returns Against Phillies

Miami Marlins second baseman Jon Berti (hip) is back at second base and is hitting leadoff on Tuesday against Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Aaron Nola. Berti missed almost a full week with a hip injury, but he'll return to face the Phils on Tuesday. The 32-year-old has mostly been useful in fantasy for his speed, as […]

Yonny Chirinos Activated From Injured List

The Tampa Bay Rays activated right-hander Yonny Chirinos (elbow) from the 60-day injured list on Tuesday and placed right-hander Drew Rasmussen on the paternity list in a corresponding move. Chirinos has Tommy John surgery in August of 2020 and hasn't pitched in the big leagues since. In three different minor league stops during his rehab […]

Drew Rasmussen Scratched On Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Drew Rasmussen was scratched from his scheduled start on Tuesday against the Boston Red Sox and placed on the paternity list. With Rasmussen leaving the team for a few days, JT Chargois will step in as the opener on Tuesday against Boston, but he won't have much fantasy appeal as […]

Ke'Bryan Hayes Returns To The Lineup Tuesday

Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes (shoulder) is back at third base and is hitting fifth on Tuesday against the New York Mets and right-hander Taijuan Walker. Hayes missed a couple games with left shoulder discomfort, but he's back in there on Tuesday for the Bucs and fantasy managers. The 25-year-old has only played in […]

Max Scherzer's Next Start Up In The Air

The New York Mets are still in the process of deciding whether starting pitcher Max Scherzer (oblique) will make his next scheduled start on Friday against the Miami Marlins or get pushed back a start.

Yankees-Twins Postponed Tuesday

The game between the New York Yankees and Minnesota Twins on Tuesday has been postponed due to the forecast of sustained inclement weather.

Houston Texans rookie running back Dameon Pierce is officially listed as the team's starting running back on their first official depth chart of the 2022 regular season. Behind Pierce are veteran Rex Burkhead, Dare Ogunbowale and Royce Freeman. Marlon Mack looked to finally be healthy after a serious Achilles injury he suffered two years ago, […]

James Washington Out Of His Walking Boot

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver James Washington (foot) was seen without his walking boot last week. Washington injured his foot early in training camp and required surgery.

Colts Add Phillip Lindsay To The Practice Squad

Chris Godwin Doesn't Know If He'll Play In Week 1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee), who was seen practicing without a brace on his right leg on Monday, is still uncertain whether he'll play in the Week 1 regular season opener on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. "I would imagine I have the final say. It's going to come down to […]

Benny Snell Jr. Falls To Third On RB Depth Chart

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. is now listed as third on the RB depth chart behind starter Najee Harris and rookie Jaylen Warren. The Steelers might lighten Harris' load a bit in his second NFL season after he led the league in touches in his rookie campaign, but Snell may not even benefit […]

The Detroit Lions recently placed starting offensive guard Halapoulivaati Vaitai (undisclosed) on Injured Reserve with an undisclosed injury, meaning he'll miss at least the first four games of the regular season.
