Keith is a sports fanatic through and through. He has been immersed in the sports world as far back as he can remember, and played competitive baseball in high school and college (University of California -- San Diego) as a four-year captain. He also dabbled semi-professionally overseas for a short time before becoming obsessed with fantasy sports, starting in 2006. He's been writing and editing fantasy content ever since, with stops at KFFL and USA TODAY Sports. He has played alongside some of the brightest fantasy minds in the industry, including LABR (League of Alternate Baseball Reality).

Thomas Szapucki Needs Season-Ending Surgery

New York Mets left-hander Thomas Szapucki (elbow) will need season-ending ulnar nerve transposition surgery, according to sources. The team's 10th-ranked prospect, per MLB Pipeline, made his major league debut last month but has had trouble with injuries early in his career. Szapucki has already had Tommy John surgery, but the Mets expect him to be […]


David Bote, Matt Duffy Starting Rehab Assignments

Chicago Cubs third baseman David Bote (shoulder) continued to work out last week and is scheduled to begin a minor league rehab assignment this Friday, according to manager David Ross. Infielder Matt Duffy (back) began his rehab assignment on Monday and is eligible for activation from the 60-day injured list on July 22. Bote and […]


Aledmys Diaz Begins Rehab Assignment

Houston Astros infielder Aledmys Diaz (hand) started a minor league rehab assignment in the Gulf Coast League on Sunday and will play there for a few days before moving to Double-A Corpus Christi. The goal will be for Diaz to rejoin the Astros before the end of July after he fractured his left hand on […]


Mike Fiers Still Not Throwing

Oakland Athletics right-hander Mike Fiers (elbow) is "still having some problems" and is not comfortable throwing, according to manager Bob Melvin. Fiers doesn't have any structural damage in his right elbow, but he did receive a platelet-rich plasma injection for his sprained elbow. With the second half of the season about to begin later this […]


White Sox Release Adam Eaton

The Chicago White Sox granted outfielder Adam Eaton his unconditional release on Monday after he was designated for assignment last weekend. Eaton didn't last long in his return to Chicago after hitting just .201/.298/.344 with five home runs, 28 RBI and two stolen bases in 219 plate appearances in 2021. The 32-year-old should eventually find […]


Josh James Makes Another Rehab Appearance

Houston Astros relief pitcher Josh James (hip) made another rehab appearance with Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday and tossed two scoreless innings in his fifth minor league outing. While rehabbing, James shortened his arm path, and it's led to good results so far, as he has a 1.42 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and six strikeouts in […]


Freddy Galvis Could Return By End Of July

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Freddy Galvis (quadriceps) will start rehabbing his strained right quad at the team's spring training complex shortly after the All-Star break, according to manager Brandon Hyde. Galvis is recovering ahead of schedule and could return by July 30. The 31-year-old veteran infielder will return to a .249/.306/.414 slash line, nine home runs, […]


Julio Teheran Begins Long Tossing

Detroit Tigers right-hander Julio Teheran (shoulder) has been long-tossing at the team's spring training complex, but he hasn't progressed to a full throwing program. Teheran made one start on April 3 before reporting shoulder issues and was diagnosed with a right shoulder strain. The veteran righty will likely need a long rehab assignment, much like […]


Phillies, Mets To Attend Cole Hamels' Showcase

The Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets plan to attend free-agent starting pitcher Cole Hamels' showcase this Friday. One hundred and 114 of Hamels' 163 regular season wins have come with the Phillies, and he also was named the 2008 NLCS and 2008 World Series MVP with Philadelphia. A reunion at the end of his […]


Giants Send Joey Bart Back Down

The San Francisco Giants optioned catcher Joey Bart to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday. Bart was called up just before the All-Star break to help fill in with Buster Posey on the injured list, and the team's No. 2 prospect went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored on Sunday. The 24-year-old will continue catching […]


Yusei Kikuchi Activated From Injured List

The Seattle Mariners activated left-hander Yusei Kikuchi form the COVID-19 injured list on Monday, but he has decided to skip the All-Star game. Kikuchi was replaced on the American League roster by Tampa Bay Rays reliever Andrew Kittredge. The 30-year-old Japanese starter was put on the COVID-19 injured list on Sunday after he experienced COVID-19-related […]


Jasson Dominguez Promoted To Low-A

The New York Yankees promoted outfielder Jasson Dominguez to Low-A Tampa on Tuesday. Dominguez, baseball's No. 24 overall prospect despite being just 18 years old, will be promoted after going 4-for-20 (.200) with an RBI and two stolen bases in seven games in the Florida Complex League. He also went 0-for-3 with a lineout and […]


Ryan Rolison Should Resume Throwing By End Of July

Colorado Rockies left-hander Ryan Rolison (finger), the team's No. 2 prospect per MLB Pipeline, should be throwing again by the end of this month after suffering a fracture on the third knuckle of his pitching hand in mid-June when he was shagging balls in the outfield. Rolison was on the comeback trail at Triple-A Albuquerque […]


Austin Gomber To Throw Simulated Game Wednesday

Colorado Rockies left-hander Austin Gomber (forearm) had a successful two-inning simulated game last Saturday while throwing around 35 pitches, according to manager Bud Black. Gomber is scheduled to throw another session on Wednesday in Denver and could go on a rehab assignment as early as this Friday. The 27-year-old southpaw left his start on June […]


Ryan McMahon Dealing With Stomach Virus

Like teammate Brendan Rodgers, Colorado Rockies second baseman Ryan McMahon (illness) missed the final two games before the All-Star break with a stomach virus, according to manager Bud Black. However, McMahon is expected to be back in the team's starting lineup when the second half of the season kicks off on Friday, so fantasy managers […]


Oneil Cruz Has Mild Forearm Strain

Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop Oneil Cruz (forearm) felt some pain after a throw while playing for Double-A Altoona, and director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said that evaluations showed a mild forearm strain. Cruz should be ready to return to baseball activities in two to three weeks. The team's No. 3 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, hasn't […]


Miles Mikolas Resumes Throwing Bullpens

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (forearm) has resumed throwing bullpen sessions and hopes to go on a rehab assignment by the end of July. The Cardinals are being careful with Mikolas after he's already had two month-long injuries in 2021, so expect him to go on a longer minor league rehab assignment in […]


Jordan Hicks Not A Lock To Return This Year

St. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Shildt said recently that relief pitcher Jordan Hicks' (elbow) return in 2021 "remains to be seen" after there was initial optimism that he could return in August. Hicks has only played light catch recently, with a return to more full baseball activities not especially close. How his body responds to […]


Nick Anderson Throws Another Bullpen Session

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Nick Anderson (elbow) threw a bullpen session on July 10 and felt good afterward. There isn't a timetable for Anderson's return or for the start of his rehab assignment, but manager Kevin Cash said that pitching coach Kyle Snyder has encouraged Anderson to "start stepping on it a little bit" […]


Ryan Thompson Unlikely To Return This Weekend

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Ryan Thompson (shoulder) is "progressing" but is unlikely to be ready for the first series after the All-Star break this weekend, according to manager Kevin Cash. However, the club is hopeful that Thompson will rejoin them early in the second half after he goes on a rehab assignment with Triple-A […]


Manuel Margot May Not Return Until August

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Manuel Margot (hamstring) suffered a Grade 1 left hamstring strain while legging out an infield single in the ninth inning on July 5 against the Cleveland Indians. When he underwent an MRI exam on July 7, the training staff informed him he would likely miss two to three weeks. Manager Kevin […]


Corey Kluber Has Resumed Throwing

New York Yankees starting pitcher Corey Kluber (shoulder) has continued a flat-ground throwing program in addition to physical therapy, but he hasn't advanced beyond playing catch up to 75 feet. General manager Brian Cashman said that the team doesn't expect Kluber to return until September, but the team is confident that the veteran right-hander will […]


Zack Britton Should Be Activated After All-Star Break

New York Yankees relief pitcher Zack Britton (hamstring) should be activated from the injured list after the All-Star break, according to manager Aaron Boone. Britton suffered a Grade 1 left hamstring strain in the eighth inning on June 25 against the Boston Red Sox and has been out since then. The left-hander threw live batting […]


Carlos Carrasco To Begin Rehab Assignment Thursday

New York Mets starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco (hamstring) will begin his rehab assignment on Thursday by throwing one inning for High-A Brooklyn. The long-term plan is to have Carrasco make his Mets debut in early August, barring any further setbacks. The 34-year-old right-hander has yet to pitch in 2021 after suffering a torn hamstring. It […]


Shohei Ohtani To Showcase Two-Way Skills In All-Star Game

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani will not only be starting on the mound for the American League team in the 2021 All-Star game on Tuesday, but he'll also be hitting for himself and batting leadoff. Ohtani has done it all this year, leading all of baseball with 33 home runs while also […]


Max Scherzer Starting For National League All-Stars

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Max Scherzer is starting for the National League squad in the 2021 All-Star game on Tuesday. Despite being 36 years old, Scherzer has remained one of the best pitchers in baseball. However, he's coming off his worst start of the year last Thursday against the San Diego Padres, when he allowed […]


Blake Snell, Yu Darvish Expected Back Right After Break

San Diego Padres starting pitchers Blake Snell (illness) and Yu Darvish (back, hip) are both expected to rejoin the rotation right after the All-Star break. The Padres plan to go with Chris Paddack, Snell and Joe Musgrove to start the second half against the Washington Nationals, with Darvish starting the first game on the road […]


Ryan Weathers Undergoing Tests On His Achilles

San Diego Padres left-hander Ryan Weathers (Achilles) is undergoing tests on his Achilles on Sunday after leaving his start early with what was initially thought to be an ankle/knee injury against the Colorado Rockies. While his knee and ankle are OK, an Achilles injury could also be troubling, so stay tuned for an update soon. […]


Carson Williams Goes To The Rays Late In The First Round

The Tampa Bay Rays selected Torrey Pines High School shortstop Carson Williams with the No. 28 overall pick at the end of the first round of the 2021 MLB amateur draft on Sunday. Williams is a two-way player that rose up the draft board because of his improved offensive approach. He has one of the […]


Minnesota Selects Chase Petty In The First Round

The Minnesota Twins selected Mainland Regional High School right-hander Chase Petty with the No. 26 overall pick in the 2021 MLB amateur draft on Sunday night. Petty is one of the hardest-throwing high school pitchers and was able to dominate with that heat in New Jersey. He has the stuff to develop into an ace […]
