Coby Mayo - Fantasy Baseball Prospects, Draft Sleepers, MLB Rookies

When Is Coby Mayo Getting Called Up? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 4 Update)

Baltimore Orioles third base prospect Coby Mayo has flashed elite upside at Triple-A but has yet to earn an extended look at the major leagues. While Mayo did earn a brief taste of the majors last summer, he had a limited role and struggled to find consistency. Mayo was competing for a spot on the […]


Christian Vazquez Moves Past Hand Injury

Minnesota Twins catcher Christian Vazquez (hand) is rejoining the starting nine on Saturday afternoon when the Twins continue a series against the Atlanta Braves. The veteran catcher has been kept sidelined through most of the week since suffering this injury on Monday. However, Vazquez was able to avoid a stint on the injured list. He […]


Willi Castro Remains Sidelined With Oblique Injury

Minnesota Twins infielder/outfielder Willi Castro (oblique) remains sidelined on Saturday due to his oblique injury. The utility man has been kept out of the starting nine since exiting Wednesday's game early. Fantasy managers should continue to keep an eye on his status leading up to Sunday's game. Before his injury, Castro held a .227/.292/.364 slash […]


Austin Wells Back In Action On Saturday

New York Yankees catcher Austin Wells (illness) will start behind the dish and bat third on Saturday afternoon when the Yankees continue a series against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Gabriel Arias, Lane Thomas Sitting On Saturday

Cleveland Guardians shortstop Gabriel Arias and outfielder Lane Thomas are not in the starting lineup on Saturday afternoon when they continue a series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Arias has been in the starting nine in each of the last seven contests. During this stretch, he has posted a stellar .385/.429/.769 slash line with three long […]


Josh Smith Back In Action On Saturday

Texas Rangers infielder Josh Smith (thumb) is returning to the starting lineup on Saturday afternoon when they continue a series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Martin Perez Hits 15-Day Injured List

The Chicago White Sox have placed left-handed pitcher Martin Perez (elbow) on the 15-day injured list due to left elbow inflammation. The 34-year-old exited Friday's contest due to soreness and will now miss at least the next two weeks of action. Before exiting, the southpaw struggled against the Boston Red Sox as he allowed five […]


Jordan Beck Recalled From Triple-A

The Colorado Rockies have recalled outfielder Jordan Beck from Triple-A Albuquerque. In a corresponding move, the Rockies officially placed outfielder Brenton Doyle on the bereavement roster effective April 17. Beck was able to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster but was later optioned to Triple-A after he struggled during the early part of […]


Ezequiel Tovar Placed On 10-Day Injured List

Colorado Rockies infielder Ezequiel Tovar (hip) was placed on the 10-day injured list due to a left hip contusion. This transaction was retroactive to April 16. Through the first 16 games of the season, Tovar has posted a .212/.257/.303 slash line with four doubles, one triple, and two stolen bases through the first 16 games […]


Vaughn Grissom Swinging A Hot Bat At Triple-A

Boston Red Sox infielder Vaughn Grissom has been swinging a hot bat at Triple-A. On Friday, Grissom went 5-for-6 with four doubles and one home run. Over his last eight contests, Grissom has posted a .441/.486/.735 slash line with seven doubles and a 9:2 K:BB. Through the first 16 contests of the Triple-A campaign, Grissom […]


Jordan Walker, Pedro Pages Sitting On Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker and catcher Pedro Pages are not in the starting lineup on Saturday afternoon when the Cardinals continue a series against the New York Mets.

A.J. Puk Hits 15-Day Injured List

The Arizona Diamondbacks have placed left-handed pitcher A.J. Puk (elbow) on the 15-day injured list due to left elbow inflammation. The 29-year-old last appeared in a contest on April 17 and did not show any signs of an injury. Through his first eight innings of the campaign, Puk has posted a 3.38 ERA with a […]


Brandon Marsh Remains Sidelined On Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (knee) remains out of the starting lineup on Saturday, when the Phillies continue a series against the Miami Marlins. Marsh suffered this knee injury on Wednesday. Initially, this injury was not viewed as serious, but it appears Marsh could hit the injured list if he remains sidelined. Fantasy managers should […]


Ryan Mountcastle Not In Saturday's Lineup

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan Mountcastle is not in the starting nine on Saturday afternoon when the Orioles continue a series against the Cincinnati Reds. Mountcastle has been in the starting lineup in each of the past seven contests. During this stretch, he has held a modest .167/.200/.333 line. He will get a chance to […]


Chandler Simpson Batting Leadoff In MLB Debut

Tampa Bay Rays outfield prospect Chandler Simpson is batting leadoff in his MLB debut on Saturday afternoon against the New York Yankees. Simpson will cover center field and face New York right-hander Carlos Carrasco. The Rays promoted Simpson from Triple-A Durham before Friday's contest. Simpson carries elite speed upside. Last summer in the minor leagues, […]


John Brebbia Placed On 15-Day Injured List

Detroit Tigers right-handed pitcher John Brebbia (triceps) was placed on the 15-day injured list due to a right triceps strain. In a corresponding move, the Tigers promoted left-handed pitcher Bailey Horn from Triple-A Toledo. Brebbia has enjoyed a strong start to the campaign. Pitching out of the bullpen, the right-hander has logged nine innings to […]


Julio Rodriguez Sitting On Saturday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez will get his first day off the season on Saturday afternoon when the Mariners continue a series against the Toronto Blue Jays. Rodriguez has gone just 1-for-16 over his last four contests with a 20.0 percent strikeout rate. Fantasy managers should expect the star outfielder to return to the starting […]


Patrick Monteverde Promoted To Major Leagues, George Soriano Optioned

The Miami Marlins have promoted left-handed pitcher Pat Monteverde to the major league roster prior to Saturday's contest against the Philadelphia Phillies. In a corresponding move, the Marlins optioned right-handed pitcher George Soriano to Triple-A Jacksonville. Monteverde has yet to appear in an MLB contest. Through the start of the Triple-A regular season, Monteverde has […]


MJ Melendez Optioned To Triple-A

The Kansas City Royals have optioned outfielder MJ Melendez to Triple-A Omaha. This transaction opened a spot on the roster for Mark Canha (hip), who was activated off the injured list in a corresponding move. Melendez has had a rough start to the campaign and will look to find his footing in the minor leagues. […]


Mark Canha Activated Off Injured List

The Kansas City Royals have activated outfielder Mark Canha (hip) from the injured list. In a corresponding move, the Royals optioned outfielder MJ Melendez to Triple-A Omaha. Canha has been sidelined since April 9 due to a left abductor strain. Before the injury, Canha was swinging a hot bat in Kansas City, as he held […]


Jake Cronenworth Targeting Earlier Return

San Diego Padres second baseman Jake Cronenworth (ribs) is progressing well in his recovery and is optimistic that he could return to action earlier than expected. The infielder was placed on the 10-day injured list on April 11 due to a rib fracture. His initial timeline suggested he would miss at least 4-to-6 weeks. However, […]


Liam Hendriks Set To Return On Saturday

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Liam Hendriks (elbow) is expected to be activated off the 15-day injured list prior to Saturday's contest against the Chicago White Sox. Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com noted that Hunter Dobbins is likely heading back to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Hendriks signed a two-year deal with the Red Sox before […]


Jackson Merrill Not Expected To Return Next Week

San Diego Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill (hamstring) will likely not return to action next week. According to manager Mike Shildt, it is "a little aggressive" to expect the budding star back in the starting nine next week. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression, but it appears the former top prospect will have to […]


Martin Perez Will Undergo MRI On Saturday

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Martin Perez (forearm) is set to undergo an MRI on Saturday. The southpaw was lifted from Saturday's contest in the third inning after feeling soreness in his forearm. Before exiting the contest, Perez allowed five hits, two walks, and four earned runs. Despite his struggles on Friday, Perez was enjoying […]


Casey Schmitt Expected To Hit Injured List

San Francisco Giants infielder Casey Schmitt (oblique) is expected to be placed on the injured list. Schmitt sustained this injury in the batting cage shortly before Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Angels. He was a late scratch to the starting nine as well. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to Saturday's contest […]


Brock Stewart Expected To Return On Sunday

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Brock Stewart (hamstring) is expected to return to action on Sunday against the Atlanta Braves. Stewart has been on the 15-day injured list through the early part of the campaign with a hamstring injury. He suffered this injury during a spring training contest in March. Stewart has made two rehab outings […]


Luke Keaschall Busy In MLB Debut

Minnesota Twins first baseman/second baseman Luke Keaschall was busy in his MLB debut on Friday evening. At the plate, he went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, and a stolen base. He also scored a run.
