Daily MLB Injury Roundup for August 12th, 2020

MLB Analysis
MLB & Fantasy Baseball News, Analysis, Advice

Fernando Tatis Jr. Ties NL Lead With Fifth Steal

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. went 2-for-5 with a steal and run scored Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. After hammering six homers last week, the reigning NL Player of the Week collected two singles and swiped his fifth bag of 2020. Through 72 plate appearances, the 21-year-old budding superstar is top-five in […]


Jurickson Profar Provides Insurance Homer

San Diego Padres infielder/outfielder Jurickson Profar went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Profar poked a drive over the right field wall in the fifth frame against Dodgers starter Ross Stripling for insurance in the 6-2 victory. The 27-year-old utility man has played all over […]


Manny Machado Launches Grand Slam

San Diego Padres third baseman crushed a grand slam in Tuesday’s victory against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Machado hammered a bases loaded offering from starter Ross Stripling in the third frame over center field to secure the Friars 6-2 victory. He finished 2-for-4 on the evening. While Machado’s batting average has been subpar this season […]


Byron Buxton Records Three Hits And First Stolen Base

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton went 3-for-4 with three singles and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss. Buxton's speed was on full display in this one, as he beat out two infield singles that others would be hard-pressed to do, then stole his first base of 2020. The 26-year-old is hitting .391 over his last […]


Garrett Richards Collects First Victory As Padre

San Diego Padres starter Garrett Richards held the Los Angeles Dodgers to one earned run across six innings in a victory Tuesday. The 32-year-old endured early trouble but eventually grooved to three strikeouts while allowing six knocks and two walks. The outing was Richards’ best since his July 26 debut and he carries a 3.74 […]


Jorge Polanco Tags Solo Home Run

Minnesota Twins shortstop Jorge Polanco has quietly gotten off to a really strong start. Polanco tagged a solo home run 391 feet at 102.3 MPH to start off the scoring on Tuesday, adding a single later on in the contest. Polanco owns just three extra-base hits but has 20 hits total, which is second to […]


Yasmani Grandal Resting On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's clash with the Detroit Tigers. The 31-year-old has had an unassuming start to the 2020 season, so hopefully the rest revitalizes him. In his absence, James McCann will start behind the plate and bat fifth against Matthew Boyd and the Tigers. […]


Are You For Real? Surprising SP Starts from Week 3

Welcome back to "Are You For Real?" Each week, we look at lower-owned starting pitchers who have performed unexpectedly well in their last outing(s). This week we're looking at a trio of pitchers who put up surprising strikeout numbers over the weekend. Nathan Eovaldi dominated the baby Blue Jays, while Framber Valdez put up nine […]


Statcast Hitter Studs and Duds - Exit Velocity (Week 4)

We're off and running on our Statcast Hitter Studs/Duds series! Many fantasy baseball owners are starting to see the value of MLB's Statcast advanced stats in order to help identify potential risers and sleepers. Just as we do for pitchers, this weekly series will examine a handful of hitters who are performing surprisingly well or […]


Yoan Moncada Getting Day Off On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. White Sox manager Rick Renteria had mentioned that Moncada was dealing with some fatigue, so this is a planned day off. In his absence, Ryan Goins will start at third base and bat ninth against […]


Eddie Rosario Cranks Two Homers

Minnesota Twins outfielder Eddie Rosario went 2-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in a 6-4 loss to the Brewers. Rosario's first homer in the first inning tied him with Max Kepler for the team lead while his second gave him the lead. That's three long-balls and seven RBI in two days for the […]


Hot Prospects To Watch: Next In Line and Hot Starters

Perhaps there's nothing more tantalizing in fantasy baseball than drafting an up-and-coming prospect or rushing to the waiver wire to bid on a Triple-A call-up. With no minor leagues this year, our favorite prospects are now playing on taxi squads, making it difficult for us to fantasize about since we can't get eyes on their […]


Marcell Ozuna Blasts Three-Run Shot On Tuesday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna was 2-for-5 with a three-run home run during Tuesday's 9-6 loss to the New York Yankees. The 29-year-old has had a productive start to the season with his new team, slashing .272/.329/.530 with four HRs, 11 RBI, and 11 runs scored. The main concern with Ozuna is his strikeout totals, […]


DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/12/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

Welcome to Wednesday where we have a modest eight-game slate featuring limited pitching options and tons of teams to consider stacking. Coors is out of play on the main slate, but there's certainly no shortage of gas-cans and inexperienced pitchers to take advantage of. I'll be going through some of the best plays at each […]

Tony Gonsolin Starting On Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tony Gonsolin will be called up to start Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres. His appearance will push Julio Urias's next start back to Thursday. Gonsolin was stellar back on July 31 during his first spot start of the season, giving up just one hit across four scoreless innings against […]


Taylor Rogers Saddled With The Loss Tuesday

Minnesota Twins closer Taylor Rogers worked in a non-save situation on Tuesday against the Brewers and picked up his second loss of the season. Rogers surrendered two runs on a home run to Jedd Gyorko and now has a bloated 5.68 ERA, despite how sharp he's looked for the majority of his appearances. This performance […]

Ross Stripling Victimized By Throwing Errors Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Ross Stripling allowed six runs (two earned) on six hits across 4 2/3 innings of work during Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the San Diego Padres. He struck out four while walking two. Stripling was cruising until the third inning, when a pair of throwing errors gave way to a grand slam […]


Tyler Clippard Works As Bullpen Opener Again

Minnesota Twins reliever Tyler Clippard worked as the opener in a bullpen game for the second time this season. Clippard struck out two but gave up a home run in one inning of work and was then replaced by fellow reliever Cody Stashak, who struck out three. Clippard has been solid this year, with a […]

Hector Neris Blows First Save Of 2020

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Hector Neris blew his first save of the season Tuesday in a 10-9 loss to the Orioles. Neris allowed three earned runs, three hits, two walks and struck out two. Neris allowed a game-tying single to Renato Nunez to blow the save, but he should have been out of the inning […]


MLB Betting Picks (8/12/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

Woof, maybe I need to go back to the KBO (/s). The Bal/Phi under was safe until the bottom of the eighth, after which 11 runs were scored into extra innings. What a debacle. Later on, the Rangers were able to tag Marco Gonzales for four runs early, but they didn't score after he left […]

Isiah Kiner-Falefa Collects Two More Hits

Texas Rangers third baseman Isiah Kiner-Falefa continued his hot-hitting 2020 season against the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. In a 4-2 Rangers win, IKF went 2-for-4 with a double. His season-long slash line sits at .320/.358/.440, but he's been even better than that over the last week. The catcher-eligible infielder is 10-for-28 with three extra-base hits […]


Luis Castillo Strikes Out Five In No-Decision

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Luis Castillo allowed three runs (one earned) in six innings in a 6-5 win over the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday. Castillo struck out five and walked two in a no-decision. The young hurler now has a 0-2 record, 3.91 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, and 31 strikeouts across 23 innings of work. Castillo […]


2020 MLB Betting Trends: Early Observations

Betting on MLB games this season has already presented difficulties, including COVID-19 complications and, as recent reports suggested, a standard ball that isn't traveling as far as expected on average, With about seven weeks left in this shortened MLB regular season, betting data is starting to look usable -- or, as usable as it can […]


Michael Brantley Has Gone Cold At The Plate

Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley went 0-for-4 in the Astros 7-6 loss to the Giants in extra innings on Tuesday. After a scorching start to his season, Brantley has gone ice cold over the last six games. He has smacked a couple of doubles over the last few games but is only 2-for-24 during that […]
