Mitch Haniger Goes Hitless With Three Strikeouts

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger didn't record a hit in Friday night's contest against the Arizona Diamondbacks, going 0-for-4 with three strikeouts. Haniger now has a dubious 10-game strikeout streak, with five whiffs in the last two games alone. He's gone 8-for-41 with one extra-base hit in that span. Haniger is still a solid fantasy […]

Drew Steckenrider Strikes Out Side In Save

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Drew Steckenrider got the save chance Friday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and he could not have performed better, striking out all three batters he faced. Steckenrider now has eight saves for the year, and seems to be locked in as the clear next man up after Paul Sewald. It could […]

Marco Gonzales Earns Eighth Win Friday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Marco Gonzales earned his eighth win of the season Friday, throwing six innings and giving up no earned runs to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Three D-Backs did cross the plate on four hits and a walk, but all were unearned. Gonzales struck out three batters. Over his last seven starts, Gonzales has […]

Dylan Moore Swipes Two Bases Against D-Backs

Seattle Mariners utility man Dylan Moore got the start batting ninth and playing left field Friday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and he went 1-for-2 with a walk, a run scored, and two stolen bases. He now has 20 steals on the season. That number is surely impressive, but Moore has had just 52 at-bats since […]

Tom Murphy Homers Twice Friday

Seattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy had his best game of the season against the Arizona Diamondbacks Friday, going 2-for-3 with two home runs. A solo shot and a two-run shot, they both came off Madison Bumgarner. Murphy now has 11 homers on the season. Despite the strong performance, Murphy is not worthy of consideration in […]

J.P. Crawford Homers For Second Straight Day

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford homered against the Arizona Diamondbacks Friday, marking the second straight day he's gone deep. It's his eighth home run of the season, which marks a career high for the light-swinging lefty. Crawford went 1-for-4 for the day. Crawford has now hit safely in nine of his last 10 games, slashing […]

Shohei Ohtani Struggles On The Mound, Thrives At The Plate

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (9-2) hitter didn't look good in Friday's start, pitching just 3.1 innings in the 10-5 defeat to the Houston Astros. He took the loss giving up six runs on nine hits with just one strikeout and no walks. Ohtani's been pretty consistent this season, so it was […]

FanDuel MLB Lineup Picks (9/11/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

It's a manageable little eight-gamer over on FanDuel tonight, and it's one with plenty of options at pitcher. Castillo, Buehler, Cease, Morton, and Garcia are all intriguing arms at the top, and the lack of confident dart-throws behind them means we'll likely have to spend up at pitcher. There are currently only two teams projecting […]

David Fletcher Extends Hitless Streak Friday

Los Angeles Angels second baseman David Fletcher took an 0-for-5 Friday night against the Houston Astros, who won the game 10-5. Fletcher is now hitless in his last six games, going 0-for-24 with two walks, bringing his average down to .279. Fletcher has almost no power in his bat, with two home runs and a […]

Michael Conforto Picks Up Two Hits On Friday

New York Mets outfielder Michael Conforto went 2-for-4 with two runs scored in the Mets 10-3 win over the Yankees on Friday evening. Conforto is hitting a respectable .308/.400/.462 with one home run and six RBI over his last seven games (26 at-bats). That said, it has been a lost season for the 28-year old, […]

Trevor Story Launches 20th Homer

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story connected for his 20th homer during an 11-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. The two-time All-Star took Phillies relief pitcher Ramon Rosso deep for a solo blast during the seventh inning. Story, while productive, has been underwhelming this season, posting 20 HR, 67 RBI, 76 R, and 18 […]

Tylor Megill Strikes Out Ten Yankees On Friday

New York Mets starting pitcher Tylor Megill went seven very solid innings to pick up his third win of the season on Friday in the Mets 10-3 victory over the Yankees. Megill (3-4) allowed just two earned runs on four hits and one walk while striking out 10 batters. It was, arguably, the best start […]

German Marquez Goes Six Scoreless, Wins 12th Game

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez spun six scoreless innings during an 11-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. The 26-year-old was brilliant, allowing six hits and one walk while striking out six during the quality start. The 2021 All-Star has put together a strong season, posting a 12-10 record with 3.93 ERA, 1.20 […]

Lorenzo Cain Crushes Grand Slam In Win

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain went 1-for-5 with a grand slam in Friday's 10-3 win over Cleveland. The outfielder capped a six-run fifth inning for Milwaukee with the slam, which was the third of his career. Cain has eight homers this season, five of which have come since August 10th. He's slashing a modest .248/.328/.402 […]

Francisco Lindor Belts 14th Homer On Friday

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks, and two runs scored in the Mets 10-3 win over the Yankees on Friday night. Lindor has had a disappointing 2021 campaign overall. After starting to heat up at the plate, he has again cooled off. Hopefully, Friday's performance can […]

Luis Urias Struggles In The Field But Makes Up For It With His Bat

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Luis Urias went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double, and an additional run scored in Friday's 10-3 win over Cleveland. The 24-year-old committed two errors in the first inning, which contributed to Cleveland taking an early lead. Urias made up for it with his fourth-inning go-ahead crush job, and he […]

Eduardo Escobar Goes Yard Twice In Win Over Cleveland

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Eduardo Escobar went 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in Friday's 10-3 win over Cleveland. The infielder went yard off Cleveland starter Eli Morgan in the fifth inning and reliever Sam Hentges in the sixth. Escobar has homered three times in his last two games after failing to go yard for […]

Adrian Houser Records Ninth Win Against Cleveland

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Adrian Houser (9-6) earned the win Friday over Cleveland. He allowed two unearned runs on a hit and five walks with five strikeouts in six innings. This is the second time in his last five starts he's allowed more walks than hits, but he's been fairly effective in that stretch. Houser […]

Max Muncy Launches 32nd Homer

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy connected for his 32nd homer during a 3-0 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday. The two-time All-Star took Padres starting pitcher Joe Musgrove deep for a two-run blast during the third inning. Muncy has rebounded after a tough 2020 campaign, posting 32 HR, 81 RBI, 84 R, […]

Javier Baez Drives In Two In Mets Win

New York Mets shortstop/second baseman Javier Baez went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored in the Mets 10-3 win over the Yankees on Friday. Báez remains red-hot at the plate with a ridiculous .500/.556/.833 slash line to go with two home runs and six RBI over his last seven games (24 […]

Julio Urias Goes Seven Scoreless, Wins 17th Game

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias spun seven scoreless innings during a 3-0 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday. The 24-year-old was brilliant, allowing three hits and a walk while striking out seven across 94 pitches. The left-hander earned his major league-leading 17th win and has a 2.98 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and […]

Jake Cronenworth Fractures Finger

San Diego Padres infielder Jake Cronenworth (finger) has been diagnosed with a small fracture on his left ring finger, according to manager Jayce Tingler. The 27-year-old was hit in the left hand by a changeup from Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias in the top of the third inning on Friday. The injury could […]

Bobby Bradley Drives In Two Friday

Cleveland Indians first baseman Bobby Bradley went 2-for-4 with two RBI in Friday's 10-3 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. Bradley was one of few bright spots in this game and he now has a .280 average with five RBI in September across 25 at-bats. Bradley is not consistent enough at the plate and should not […]
