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. Keaschall would tally his RBI in the second frame on a single that scored catcher Ryan Jeffers. This was […]


Jose Fleury Continues Strong Start On Friday

Houston Astros pitching prospect Jose Fleury continued his strong start to the campaign on Friday. He tossed six 2/3 shutout innings en route to earning his second victory over Double-A Midland. He allowed just two hits, one walk, and struck out six. Over his first 17 1/3 innings (three starts), Fleury has not allowed a […]


AJ Smith-Shawver Strikes Out Eight In Defeat

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect AJ Smith-Shawver tossed five 2/3 innings of three-run ball in his first start at Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday. While Smith-Shawver took the loss in this contest, he flashed high strikeout upside as he struck out eight batters. The top prospect in Atlanta was able to earn a spot on the Opening […]


Marcelo Mayer Tallies Seven RBI On Friday

Boston Red Sox infield prospect Marcelo Mayer went 2-for-7 with a home run and seven RBI during their contest against Triple-A Rochester on Friday evening. Mayer would tally most of his RBIs on a grand slam in the second frame. Through his first taste of Triple-A, Mayer has struggled to find consistency. Through the first […]


Zyhir Hope Hits Two Home Runs On Friday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect Zyhir Hope went 2-for-4 with two home runs during their contest against High-A Great Lakes. Hope would hit his first home run against former No. 2 overall pick, Chase Burns. Through his first 13 games at the High-A level, Hope has looked quite comfortable as he has posted a strong […]


Andrew Painter Sharp In Second Rehab Outing

Philadelphia Phillies pitching prospect Andrew Painter was sharp in his second rehab outing with Low-A Clearwater. Painter tossed three no-hit frames. He did not allow a walk and struck out four. This was a strong improvement compared to the two runs he allowed over his first rehab outing (one 1/3 innings). During his first outing, […]

Fantasy Baseball Prospect Risers - Rookies to Stash and Top Performers for Week 4 (2025)

With Week 3 of the baseball season in the rearview mirror, it is time to look ahead to Week 4. We have already seen several top prospects, such as Edgar Quero of the White Sox, Zac Veen, and Chase Dollander of the Colorado Rockies, get called up to the major leagues. Fantasy managers ran to the waiver wire […]


Brandon Young Set To Make MLB Debut On Saturday

Baltimore Orioles pitching prospect Brandon Young is set to make his MLB debut on Saturday afternoon against the Cincinnati Reds. Young joined the Baltimore taxi squad prior to Friday's series opener and is set to take the big league bump for the first time on Saturday. Young opened the campaign with Triple-A Norfolk and held […]


Jacob Lopez Recalled From Triple-A

The Athletics have recalled left-handed pitcher Jacob Lopez from Triple-A Las Vegas. In a corresponding move, the Athletics have optioned right-handed pitcher Jason Alexander to Las Vegas. Lopez has enjoyed a strong start to the campaign with Triple-A Las Vegas and is being rewarded with a promotion to the big leagues. Across 14 2/3 innings […]


Twins Designate Matt Canterino For Assignment

The Minnesota Twins have designated right-handed pitcher Matt Canterino for assignment. This transaction opened a spot on the roster for infield prospect Luke Keaschall. Entering spring training, Canterino did not pitch in a minor league contest since the 2022 campaign due to Tommy John surgery. He was able to enter camp healthy but suffered a […]


Mickey Gasper Sent To Triple-A St. Paul

The Minnesota Twins have optioned catcher Mickey Gasper to Triple-A St. Paul on Friday. Gasper was able to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster but was unable to find much success during the opening weeks of the campaign. Through 10 contests, Gasper posted a .111/.273/.111 line with just two hits and a 4:7 […]


Nicky Lopez Designated For Assignment

The Los Angeles Angels have designated infielder Nicky Lopez for assignment. In a corresponding move, the Angels activated infielder Zach Neto (shoulder) off the injured list. Lopez has appeared in five games this season and did not tally a hit across six plate appearances. If Lopez is not claimed on waivers, the 30-year-old will report […]


Alex Bregman Back From Paternity Leave

Boston Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman has been activated from the paternity list prior to Friday's game against the Chicago White Sox. In a corresponding move, the Red Sox have designated right-handed pitcher Michael Fulmer. Bregman is slated to cover the hot corner and bat third on Friday evening. The 31-year-old was held out […]


Dodgers Recall Noah Davis From Triple-A

The Los Angeles Dodgers have recalled right-handed pitcher Noah Davis from Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to Friday's contest against the Texas Rangers. On Thursday, the Dodgers optioned right-handed pitcher Bobby Miller to Triple-A after he made a spot-start. Davis will take his spot on the roster. Davis has spent his major league career with the […]


Brooks Raley Throws Bullpen, Drawing Interest From Several Teams

Relief pitcher Brooks Raley threw a bullpen session with at least a "dozen" teams in attendance, according to Will Sammon of The Athletic. Raley logged just seven innings of work with the New York Mets before undergoing Tommy John surgery. However, it appears the southpaw is making significant progress in his recovery and could find […]


Nathan Lukes Activated From Paternity List

The Toronto Blue Jays have reinstated outfielder Nathan Lukes from the paternity list. The team noted the outfielder will be active during their contest on Friday evening against the Seattle Mariners. Through the first 12 games of the season, Lukes has posted a modest .167/.310/.208 slash line with one double and a 4:4 BB:K. During […]


Carson Spiers Recalled From Triple-A

The Cincinnati Reds have recalled right-handed pitcher Carson Spiers from Triple-A Louisville. In a corresponding move, the Reds placed starting pitcher Nick Lodolo on the paternity list. Lodolo was slated to start Sunday's contest against the Baltimore Orioles. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Spiers to get the nod instead. Spiers has logged nine […]


Nick Lodolo Placed On Paternity List

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Nick Lodolo was placed on the paternity list prior to Friday's contest against the Baltimore Orioles. In a corresponding move, the Reds promoted Carson Spiers from Triple-A Louisville. Lodolo was set to get the nod on Sunday, but instead, the Reds will likely give Spiers the nod. Lodolo has enjoyed an […]


Nationals-Rockies Postponed On Friday

As a result, this game will be played on Sunday as part of a doubleheader. The first game on Sunday will begin at 1:10 PM EST, and the second contest is scheduled to begin at […]


Drew Gilbert Returns To Triple-A

New York Mets outfield prospect Drew Gilbert (hamstring) returned to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday. Gilbert was on the 7-day injured list due to a hamstring injury at the start of the campaign. He participated in a brief six-game rehab assignment with Low-A St. Lucie before returning to action. During his rehab assignment, Gilbert held a […]


Henry Bolte Snaps Skid With Two-Hit Game

Athletics outfield prospect Henry Bolte snapped his skid on Thursday as he went 2-for-4 with a home run and a stolen base. Entering Thursday, Bolte carried an underwhelming .100/.182/.100 line over his last three contests. However, prior to this minor slump, Bolte began the season riding an eight-game hitting streak. During this hot start, the […]


Jett Williams Goes Deep, Swipes A Bag

New York Mets infield prospect Jett Williams went 2-for-5 with a home run and a stolen base during their contest on Thursday against Double-A Reading.
