Jakob Marsee Resumes Baseball Activities

Miami Marlins outfield prospect Jakob Marsee (oblique) has resumed baseball activities. The former sixth-round selection of the 2022 MLB Draft sustained a minor oblique injury during camp but is slowly nearing a return to game action. Last season, the 23-year-old spent most of his campaign at the Double-A level but did earn a late-season taste […]


Freddy Tarnok Sidelined For Two Weeks

Miami Marlins right-handed pitcher Freddy Tarnok (ankle) is expected to be sidelined for two weeks with an ankle injury. He rolled his left ankle and is not expected to return to a spring training contest for at least two weeks. Tarnok was invited to Miami's camp as a non-roster invite. The 26-year-old has logged just […]


Max Muncy Quiet In Return To Action

Athletics shortstop prospect Max Muncy (undisclosed) has yet to tally a hit in his return to action. The infielder was sidelined during the final month of the season with an undisclosed injury. However, seeing him participate in the early spring games is a positive sign. Through his first four contests, the 22-year-old has gone 0-for-6 […]


Nick Madrigal To Undergo Shoulder Surgery, Likely Out For The Season

New York Mets second baseman Nick Madrigal (shoulder) will undergo surgery on his shoulder and will likely miss the entire 2025 campaign. Madrigal signed a one-year deal with the Mets worth $1.35 million earlier in the offseason. During the early part of spring training, Madrigal exited a contest after taking a hard fall on his […]


Bubba Chandler Rebounds In Second Spring Outing

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitching prospect Bubba Chandler tossed one shutout inning during Thursday's victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Chandler served up one free pass but did not allow a hit. He also did not tally a punchout. However, this was a nice rebound for the budding ace as he allowed one hit, one walk, […]


Sebastian Walcott Goes Deep In Return

Texas Rangers shortstop prospect Sebastian Walcott (arm) went 1-for-2 with a solo shot in his return on Thursday. Walcott battled arm soreness throughout the week but moved past this injury quite quickly as he launched his first long ball of the spring. Later in the contest, Walcott tallied his second RBI on a groundout. The […]

Felix Bautista Nearing Spring Debut

Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Felix Bautista (elbow) threw his second live batting practice on Thursday and is nearing his spring debut. Roch Kubatko of MASN noted, "it won't be much longer until he pitches in his first Grapefruit League game." Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, but it appears that the high-end closer […]


Joey Loperfido Cleared To Return

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Joey Loperfido (neck/back) is in Friday's starting lineup for their split-squad game against the New York Yankees. Loperfido has been sidelined since Tuesday after colliding into the outfield wall. He did not have any concussion symptoms and was sidelined for the next few days. However, seeing him return to the lineup […]


Wenceel Perez To See Increased Time In The Outfield

Detroit Tigers second baseman/outfielder Wenceel Perez is set to see increased opportunities in the outfield with Matt Vierling (shoulder) and Parker Meadows (biceps) sidelined. Vierling is dealing with a right shoulder injury and is to undergo further evaluation. Meadows is dealing with inflammation but did not suffer any structural damage. The 25-year-old is likely to […]


Nolan Schanuel Hopes To Improve Bat Speed

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel worked to improve his bat speed during the offseason. Last season, the former 11th overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft placed in the second percentile in bat speed (65.2 mph). He generated a weak 25.4 percent hard-hit rate and a 3.5 percent barrel rate which placed him […]


Bryan Hoeing Plays Catch

San Diego Padres right-handed pitcher Bryan Hoeing (shoulder) began playing catch earlier this week. Hoeing has been delayed during the start of camp due to shoulder soreness. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as he could still be cleared by Opening Day if he continues to progress at a steady rate. Last season, […]


Juan Nunez Throws Bullpen Session

San Diego Padres right-handed pitching prospect Juan Nunez (shoulder) threw his first bullpen session on Tuesday. The 24-year-old has been dealing with a shoulder injury and is slowly building up. Seeing him throw his first session relatively early in camp leaves the door open for him to be cleared for action by Opening Day. Nunez […]


Ivan Barbashev Busy On Thursday

Vegas Golden Knights left wing Ivan Barbashev tallied four points during their 7-5 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday evening. Barbashev tallied his first point in the opening frame on a secondary assist on Nicholas Hague's goal. Later in this frame, Barbashev found the back of the net on the power-play. In the second, […]


Evgeni Malkin Powers Pittsburgh To Victory

Pittsburgh Penguins center Evgeni Malkin tallied four points during their overtime victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday evening. In the second period, Malkin tallied two helpers, the primary assist on Philip Tomasino's strike and the secondary assist on Erik Karlsson's goal. In the third period, Malkin found the back of the net on a […]


Philip Broberg Strikes Twice On Thursday

St. Louis Blues defenseman Philip Broberg found the back of the net twice during their victory over the Washington Capitals on Thursday evening. Broberg found the back of the net twice in the opening, during even strength play. He also held a +2 rating in this contest but did not tally a hit or a […]


Andrei Vasilevskiy Blanks Calgary On Thursday

Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped all 27 shots on Thursday night against the Calgary Flames. The Flames had the slight advantage in the shot total but Vasilevskiy was able to lead the way. The Flames made a strong push in the third period as they logged 11 shots but Vasilevskiy shut the door. […]


Nick Suzuki Posts Second Straight Three-Point Game

Montreal Canadiens center Nick Suzuki tallied three points for the second-straight contest on Thursday evening during their overtime victory over the San Jose Sharks. Suzuki found the back of the net twice in the opening frame, both during 5-on-5 play. Then in overtime, Suzuki would tally the primary assist on Cole Caufield's game-winner. Suzuki has […]


Ilya Sorokin Stands Tall Against Boston

New York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin stopped 38 of the 39 shots he faced en route to defeating the Boston Bruins on Thursday evening. The Islanders were heavily outshot in this contest but Sorokin was able to lead the way. His lone mistake came in the final frame when David Pastrnak found the back of […]

Marlins Claim Brett De Geus Off Waivers

The Miami Marlins have claimed right-handed pitcher Brett de Geus off waivers. In a corresponding move, the team designated right-handed pitcher Seth Martinez for assignment, who they claimed off waivers last week. De Geus was traded to Pittsburgh earlier this offseason but will return to the Marlins, with whom he spent time earlier in his […]


Seth Martinez Designated For Assignment

The Miami Marlins have designated right-handed pitcher Seth Martinez for assignment. In a corresponding move, the team claimed right-handed pitcher Brett de Geus off waivers from the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Marlins claimed Martinez off waivers earlier this week. Martinez has spent his entire MLB career with the Houston Astros. Last season, the 30-year-old posted a […]


Tyler Soderstrom Could See Opportunities Behind The Plate

Athletics first baseman Tyler Soderstrom could still be in the mix to serve as the team's backup catcher. Soderstrom was drafted as a catcher with the 26th pick in the 2020 MLB Draft. However, the 23-year-old has begun to transition to first base. Last summer, Soderstrom made just one start behind the dish in the […]


X-Rays Come Back Negative On Jose Caballero

The X-rays came back negative on Tampa Bay Rays infielder Jose Caballero (foot). Caballero was lifted from Thursday's Grapefruit League contest after fouling a ball off his left foot. However, the infielder was able to avoid a serious injury and should be viewed as day-to-day. Fantasy managers should expect the team to exercise caution with […]


Nacho Alvarez Jr. Exits Thursday's Game With Wrist Injury

Atlanta Braves infielder Nacho Alvarez Jr. (wrist) was lifted from Thursday's contest due to discomfort in his left wrist. Alvarez expressed pain when he struck out in the opening frame. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status as the team will likely provide an update in the coming days. Alvarez made his MLB debut […]


Jake Lamb Battling Tight Quadriceps

San Francisco Giants first baseman/outfielder Jake Lamb (quadriceps) is dealing with tightness in his left quad. The 34-year-old was lifted from Thursday's spring training contest. The team is expected to provide an update on his status on Friday. Earlier in the offseason, Lamb signed a minor-league contract with the Giants that included an invite to […]


Darnell Nurse Not Playing On Thursday

Edmonton Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse (undisclosed) will not suit up on Thursday night to face the Florida Panthers. Head coach Kris Knoblauch noted that the defenseman is viewed as "day-to-day." The 30-year-old was absent during Thursday's morning skate and hopes to return to the starting lineup on Saturday to face the Carolina Hurricanes. Over his […]


Roman Josi Not Suiting Up On Thursday

Nashville Predators defenseman Roman Josi (upper body) will not suit up on Thursday evening against the Winnipeg Jets. Head coach Andrew Brunette noted that the star defenseman is viewed as "day-to-day." Josi suffered this injury during Tuesday's contest against the Florida Panthers. He was evaluated following the game and appears to have potentially avoided a […]


Matthew Tkachuk Not Playing On Thursday

Florida Panthers left wing Matthew Tkachuk (groin) will remain sidelined during Thursday's contest when the Panthers host the Oilers in a Stanley Cup rematch. Tkachuk has missed their previous two contests. Head coach Paul Maurice noted that the star winger is out "near-term." Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to their […]


Kirby Dach Ruled Out For Thursday

Montreal Canadiens center Kirby Dach (lower body) will not play against the San Jose Sharks on Thursday evening. Dach was also unable to play on Tuesday evening against the Carolina Hurricanes. The team is expected to provide an update on Dach's status on Friday. In his previous five contests, Dach tallied three points (all helpers), […]
