Zach Britton Gets His Sixth Save

New York Yankees reliever Zach Britton picked up his league-leading sixth save of the season on Tuesday with a clean inning against the Braves. Britton has now allowed only one run over his seven appearances so far this season, and he’s looked dominant as the primary closer for the Yankees. Unfortunately for fantasy owners who […]


Luke Voit Hit In Hand, Stays In Game

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit was hit in the left hand by a 93 mph fastball during Tuesday’s game against the Braves. Voit was looked at by trainers but stayed in the game for his next at-bat before being removed for defensive reasons in the ninth inning. Voit has continued to hit well […]


Jordan Montgomery Looks Good On Tuesday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery allowed three runs over six innings with four strikeouts against the Braves on Tuesday. Montgomery generated an uncharacteristically high 14% swinging-strike rate, but he was also hit a little harder than usual with a 37% hard-hit rate for the night. Encouragingly, Montgomery’s elevated velocity has continued to stick, […]


Giancarlo Stanton Has Grade 1 Hamstring Strain

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) was diagnosed with a grade 1 hamstring strain on Tuesday. Players typically recover from such strains within a month, putting Stanton’s expected return date in early September given that he was placed on the 10-day IL on August 8. Mike Ford figures to be the primary beneficiary of […]


Yankees To Call Up Clint Frazier

New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier is likely to be called up from the team’s alternate site prior to Tuesday’s game. Giancarlo Stanton’s move to the IL has opened up some playing time in the Yankee lineup, but it’s still unlikely that Frazier sees regular playing time. Mike Ford figures to be the primary DH […]


Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 4

It's easy to hyper-analyze slow starts with nearly a quarter of the season gone (for some teams, at least), but it's important to keep in mind that teams have played fewer than 20 games. That's an extremely small sample of performance, and overreactions to poor early results have left some likely to be productive outfielders […]


MLB DFS Prop Picks for Monday, August 10th - Monkey Knife Fight

It's hard to believe, but some teams are already a quarter of the way through the MLB season. Unfortunately, with the quarter-season mark sitting at just 15 games, early-season trends are difficult to rely on. Although that can make decisions difficult for fantasy players, it can also lead to opportunities for DFS players. Our friends […]


Zach Britton Takes His First Loss Of The Season

New York Yankees relief pitcher Zach Britton was tagged with the loss on Sunday, allowing a walk-off run against the Rays on Sunday. Britton failed to generate a single whiff over his 19 pitches, and a pair of hard-hit balls allowed the Rays to drive in the winning run. Sunday’s loss breaks a 68-appearance streak […]


Gleyber Torres Extends Hit Streak To Three Games

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres extended his hit streak to three games with a 1-for-3 performance on Sunday. Torres broke a 24-at-bat hitless streak in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader, and he appears to be heating up after a slow start to the season. Poor contact quality has been the primary driver of […]


James Paxton Picks Up 11 Strikeouts On Sunday

New York Yankees starting pitcher James Paxton finally had a good start on Sunday, allowing three runs over 6.1 innings with 11 strikeouts and just one walk. Paxton cruised through six innings before allowing back-to-back home runs in the seventh, and fantasy players should be encouraged by the 31-year-old’s performance. Paxton looked better than he […]


Gerrit Cole Strikes Out 10 On Saturday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole allowed three runs over 4.2 innings while striking out 10 against the Rays on Saturday. A two-run home run from Jose Martinez bruised what was otherwise an excellent outing from Cole, in which the pitcher posted an impressive 21.5% swinging-strike rate, including a 20% swinging-strike rate on his […]


Yankees Place Kyle Higashioka On The 10-day IL

New York Yankees catcher Kyle Higashioka (oblique) was placed on the 10-day IL with an oblique strain on Saturday. Higashioka’s oblique began bothering him on Thursday, and the 30-year-old tried to play through it before landing on the IL. With Higashioka to miss at least the next ten days and Chris Ianetta retiring, Erik Kratz […]


Adam Ottavino Takes The Loss On Friday

New York Yankees relief pitcher Adam Ottavino took the loss on Friday, allowing one run over one inning of work. A pair of walks were Ottavino’s undoing on Friday, but there don’t appear to be any long-term concerns regarding his control. The primary issue for Ottavino’s fantasy value is his role; as a part of […]


Masahiro Tanaka Pitches Well On Friday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka tossed five shutout, one-hit innings with five strikeouts against the Rays on Friday. Tanaka’s command looked excellent on Friday as he mostly kept his pitches around the edges of the strike zone. Encouragingly, Tanaka maintained his bounceback in his swinging-strike rate with a 17% mark on Friday, and […]


Gary Sanchez Hits His First Home Run Of The Season

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez finally hit his first home run of the season on Thursday, breaking a nine-game homerless streak to start the year. Sanchez has been mired in an extreme slump to start the 2020 season, taking a .074/.167/.111 slash line into Thursday’s game. With career-worsts in his z-swing (53.7%), contact (53.8%), […]


Jordan Montgomery Struggles On Thursday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery pitched poorly on Thursday, allowing five runs over four innings of work. Montgomery’s improved velocity has been sticking so far this season as his sinker averaged 92.5 mph on Thursday, up 0.7 mph from last season’s mark, and nearly 2 mph from 2018. Montgomery’s command appeared to be […]


Miguel Andujar Optioned To Alternate Site

New York Yankees third baseman and outfielder Miguel Andujar was optioned to the team’s alternate site in a surprising move on Thursday. Andujar had struggled after seeing playing time in five of the team’s 11 games, collecting only a single over 14 at-bats. With roster sizes shrinking to 28 players on Thursday, it appears as […]


Zach Britton Picks Up His Fifth Save

New York Yankees relief pitcher Zach Britton picked up his fifth save of the season with a clean inning against the Phillies on Wednesday. The Yankees had provided the fourth most save opportunities coming into Wednesday, and Britton has been excellent so far, having allowed only two baserunners over his first five appearances. Even with […]


Brett Gardner Homers Again

New York Yankees outfielder Brett Garnder hit his third home run of the season in the first game of a double-header on Wednesday, and all three of his hits have now been homers. Not much of a power hitter historically, Gardner’s 5.1% home run rate from last season shattered his previous career-high of 3.1%. Although […]


J.A. Happ Struggles On Wednesday

New York Yankees starting pitcher J.A. Happ lasted only three innings against the Phillies on Wednesday, walking six batters and allowing four runs. Happ isn’t a stranger to the upper half of the strike zone, but the 37-year-old missed high frequently on Wednesday, contributing to his high walk rate. Encouragingly, Happ continued his elevated slider […]


Gavin Lux Still Isn’t Ready

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux still isn’t ready for the MLB season from a mechanical perspective, according to manager Dave Roberts. Lux was surprisingly sent to the team’s alternate site to start the season after posting an OPS north of 1.000 in the minor leagues last season, but the Dodgers feel that the […]


Jose Quintana To Throw Simulated Game On Thursday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jose Quintana (thumb) is scheduled to throw a two-inning simulated game on Thursday. Quintana threw a trio of bullpen sessions over the past week without reporting discomfort, and the Cubs are now focusing on stretching Quintana out so that he can pitch deeper into games. As long as Thursday’s game goes […]


J.P. Crawford Batting Leadoff On Wednesday

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford is leading off for the team against the Angels on Wednesday, likely giving the 25-year-old relatively many opportunities to score runs batting in front of Kyle Lewis and Kyle Seager. Crawford has bounced around in the Seattle lineup so far this season, but his impressive .405 early-season OBP and the […]


Stephen Strasburg Throws Simulated Game On Wednesday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (finger) threw a 32-pitch simulated game on Wednesday. Nationals manager Davy Martinez has reportedly expected Strasburg to throw closer to 50 pitches on Wednesday, and it’s not clear why the sim game was ultimately cut short. The team still doesn’t have a clear timeline for Strasburg’s return yet, and […]


Shohei Ohtani To Return As A DH On Thursday

Los Angeles Angels DH and starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani (forearm) is expected to return as the team’s primary DH on Thursday. Ohtani probably won’t pitch again in 2020, and his full-time return to the lineup bumps Justin Upton to the bench with Jo Adell claiming a spot in the Los Angeles outfield. Although the effective […]


Jo Adell Batting Seventh Again On Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jo Adell is batting seventh again on Wednesday after doing so in his MLB debut as well. It’s not an ideal batting spot for the top prospect, but Adell should continue to see regular playing time in the Los Angeles outfield after slashing .289/.359/.475 in the minor leagues last season. As […]


Max Scherzer Tweaks His Hamstring

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Max Scherzer (hamstring) left his Wednesday start after just one inning and attributed his short start to a hamstring issue. Although it forced him to end his night early, Scherzer’s hamstring injury appears to be minor and seems unlikely to cost him more than one additional start. Nevertheless, fantasy players should […]


Gio Urshela Hits His Third Home Run

New York Yankees third baseman Gio Urshela hit his third home run of the season with a 403 ft shot against the Phillies on Monday. Urshela has followed up his breakout 2019 season with a 1.101 OPS following Monday’s game, and his power bump from last season has continued into 2020 so far. Urshela had […]


Gerrit Cole Has An Uneven Performance On Monday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole wound up with a solid six-inning, one-run performance on Monday, but the 29-year-old allowed 10 hard-hit balls and posted a poor 7.7% swinging-strike rate on the night. Cole’s command looked a little shaky on Monday as he left a few too many pitches over the heart of the […]


Luis Cessa To Be Activated On Monday

New York Yankees relief pitcher Luis Cessa will be activated by the team on Monday after a coronavirus-related absence to start the season. With Tommy Kahnle (elbow) out for the rest of the season, Cessa should see a fair amount of hold opportunities over the rest of the season. That being said, Cessa’s career 4.50 […]
