Christian Watson Cleared For Team Drills

Aaron Stinnie Suffers Torn ACL/MCL

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive guard Aaron Stinnie (knee) suffered a torn ACL and MCL in the preseason game on Saturday against the Tennessee Titans, and he'll miss the entire 2022 season, according to a source.

Tom Brady Expected To Return "Very Shortly"

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (personal) is expected to return to the team "very shortly," according to a source.

Eddie Rosario Resting Against Astros

Atlanta Braves outfielder Eddie Rosario (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Houston Astros. Rosario is dealing with a sore left hamstring and should be considered day-to-day.

Eury Perez On Minor League Injured List

Miami Marlins right-handed pitching prospect Eury Perez (arm) has been placed on the seven-day injured list in the minor leagues with arm fatigue. The 19-year-old allowed 13 earned runs in his last three outings for Double-A Pensacola over 11 innings, with his arm fatigue likely contributing to those ugly results. The Marlins' No. 1 prospect, […]

David Robertson Won't Be Sole Closer

Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said he will continue to mix and match in the later innings after the team placed right-hander Seranthony Dominguez (triceps) on the injured list on Sunday.

Patrick Wisdom Day-To-Day

X-rays came back negative on Chicago Cubs third baseman/first baseman Patrick Wisdom (finger) and he was diagnosed with a strained ring finger. He's day-to-day for now.

Jose Altuve Out With Sore Shoulder Sunday

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (shoulder) is out of the starting lineup on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves due to a sore shoulder, according to skipper Dusty Baker.

Bryce Harper Set To Begin Rehab Assignment Next Week

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper (elbow, thumb) is on track to begin a minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A Lehigh Valley either on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Byron Buxton Receiving A Breather

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is not in the starting lineup on Sunday for the series finale against the Texas Rangers. It appears to be a normal day of rest for Buxton. The 28-year-old went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts and a walk in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers, and he's hitting .234 (11-for-47) with […]

William Contreras Not Starting Against Astros

Atlanta Braves catcher William Contreras remains out of the starting lineup on Sunday against the Houston Astros. Contreras has started on the bench in three of the last four games for the Braves.

Seranthony Dominguez Lands On Injured List

The Philadelphia Phillies placed right-handed reliever Seranthony Dominguez (triceps) on the 15-day injured list on Sunday with triceps soreness.

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (foot) is back in the starting lineup on Sunday against New York Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes, serving as the designated hitter and batting cleanup.

Marcell Ozuna Returns To The Lineup

Atlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna is back in left field and is hitting eighth on Sunday against right-hander Jose Urquidy and the Houston Astros. Ozuna was recently arrested for driving under the influence on Friday morning and was held out of the team's lineup the last two games, but he'll return for the series finale […]

Estevan Florial Sitting Out Sunday

New York Yankees outfielder Estevan Florial is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays.

He has just one hit in 22 plate appearances with an RBI, run scored, a stolen base […]

Josh Donaldson Still Out Against Blue Jays

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (illness) remains out of the starting lineup on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Donaldson will miss his second straight game due to a stomach ailment. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day, and he could even come off the bench on Sunday. DJ LeMahieu is starting at the […]

Giancarlo Stanton Goes Hitless In First Rehab Game

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (Achilles) went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts while serving as the designated hitter and batting second on Saturday in his first minor league rehab game with Double-A Somerset.

Jonathan Schoop Out On Sunday

Detroit Tigers second baseman Jonathan Schoop (ankle) is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Los Angeles Angels. Schoop sprained his right ankle on Saturday and had to leave the game early, so it shouldn't come as a big surprise that he's out for the series finale. He's considered day-to-day for now. The […]

Eric Saubert Finds End Zone In Second Preseason Game

Denver Broncos tight end Eric Saubert had the team's lone touchdown in the 42-15 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Saturday in the second preseason game. Saubert caught all three of his targets in the contest for only 17 yards and the score. The 28-year-old appeared in all 17 games in his first year in […]

Albert Okwuegbunam Plays Entire Game Saturday

Denver Broncos tight end Albert Okwuegbunam played the entire preseason game against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday and finished with four catches for 32 yards on his five targets. It's odd to see an expected starter playing an entire preseason game, but apparently Okwuegbunam has been a bit of a disappointment during training camp and […]

Trey Quinn Leads Team In Receiving Against Bills

Denver Broncos wide receiver Trey Quinn was the team's leading receiver in Saturday's 42-15 preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills. Quinn finished with team-highs in catches (five), targets (eight) and receiving yards (47), but he did not manage to find the end zone.

Romeo Doubs Has Up-And-Down Preseason Performance

Tyquan Thornton Suffers Collarbone Injury

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (collarbone) suffered a collarbone injury in the team's second preseason game against the Carolina Panthers on Friday night. There isn't an exact timetable for Thornton's return, but it doesn't appear to be a season-ending injury. The 22-year-old will almost certainly miss the start of the 2022 regular […]

Pierre Strong Jr. In Competition For No. 4 RB Job

New England Patriots rookie running back Pierre Strong Jr. hasn't really found his footing yet in training camp and remains stuck in a competition for the No. 4 running back job, not the No. 3 spot like most people were expecting.

Kendrick Bourne Sliding Down The Depth Chart

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne had 800 receiving yards last year, but he continues to slide down the depth chart this summer.
