Dylan Moore Scores Twice Saturday

Seattle Mariners second baseman Dylan Moore had a solid showing Saturday night against the Texas Rangers. Moore went 2-for-4 with a double and a bunt single, and he came around to score both times. Moore has managed to stay in the lineup despite his terrible start to the season, because essentially the Mariners just don't […]

Luis Torrens Goes Deep Saturday

Seattle Mariners catcher Luis Torrens drew the start Saturday, and went 1-for-4 with a home run. The solo shot came in the top of the eighth inning, and temporarily gave the Mariners the lead, though his own error would contribute to the three runs Texas scored in the bottom of the inning. Torrens has received […]

J.P. Crawford Picks Up Two More RBI

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford was in the five-hole once again Saturday, and he went 1-for-5 to drive in two runs. Crawford has been hot of late, with a .300/.364/.440 line over the last 15 days, and an even better .318/.400/.500 line over the last week. Crawford has never been known to hit the ball […]

Ty France Leaves Seven On Base

Seattle Mariners designated hitter Ty France had yet another tough day at the plate against the Rangers Saturday. France had plenty of opportunities with men on base, but he was once again not able to pick up a hit, going 0-for-5 in the contest. He did manage to bring one run home on a fielder's […]

Kyle Seager Goes Deep

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager went deep Saturday against the Texas Rangers. The homer, Seager's sixth of the year, came off of lefty reliever Kolby Allard, and was absolutely crushed to center field. He also singled and walked in the contest.

Kyle Lewis Reaches Base Four Times

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis had another solid game Saturday, collecting two hits in three at-bats and walking twice. He also scored a run.

Ljay Newsome Exits With Elbow Injury

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Ljay Newsome (elbow) exited Saturday's outing against Texas. The 24-year-old lasted only an inning and was pulled after suffering inflammation in his right elbow. The righty doesn't offer much of an upside, so fantasy managers likely won't lose any sleep if he ends up taking a trip to the 10-day injured […]

LJay Newsome Exits With Injury

Seattle Mariners pitcher Ljay Newsome (elbow) left Saturday's game with an injury after completing only one inning. Newsome entered after starter Erik Swanson, and was expected to throw multiple innings as a bulk pitcher, but exited with what was later deemed right elbow inflammation. In his one inning, Newsome allowed three runs on four hits […]

X-Rays On Ronald Acuna Jr. Negative

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (hand) is considered day-to-day. The 23-year-old took a pitch to his left hand during Saturday's outing against the Phillies, resulting in a bruised left pinky. Luckily, x-rays were negative, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see him out of the lineup for the series finale against Philly on […]

Danny Mendick Hits First Home Run Of 2021

Chicago White Sox infielder Danny Mendick made his first career start in the outfield on Saturday and went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run. Mendick's home run was part of an eight run first inning that helped set up a long night for Royals pitchers. The utility man has been on and off of the […]

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina returned from the injured list for Saturday's game and drove in three runs. Molina went 1-for-4 with the three RBI in his first game since April 26.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lance Lynn picked up his third victory of the season on Saturday versus the Kansas City Royals.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Corbin Burnes could throw a bullpen session on Monday, and if all goes well, he could be back in the lineup by the end of next week. Burnes has missed time after landing on the COVID-19 injured list. The righty currently sits on a 1.53 ERA and a record of two […]

Jose Berrios Notches Quality Start

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Jose Berrios recorded his second quality start of the season in a no-decision against the Tigers on Saturday. Berrios tossed six innings of two-run ball, surrendering six hits and five walks while fanning just one batter. He clearly didn't have his best control, as he fell behind in the count to […]

Alex Reyes Finally Allows A Run, But Still Earns A Save

St. Louis Cardinals closer Alex Reyes picked up his 10th save of the season in Saturday's win over the Colorado Rockies. He did allow his first earned run of the season though, ballooning his ERA to 0.53. In total, Reyes pitched 1 2/3 innings, allowing a run on a hit and a walk while striking […]

Brett Anderson May Be Removed From I.L. On Sunday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brett Anderson (hamstring) is likely to be removed from the injured list on Sunday. The veteran exited a matchup against the Cubs a few weeks ago, and fortunately for the team, an MRI revealed just a right hamstring strain. The southpaw is posting a 2.65 ERA along with two wins and […]

Carlos Martinez Struggles On Saturday But Earns A Win

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Carlos Martinez struggled a bit in Saturday's start against the Colorado Rockies but escaped with a win thanks to a nine-run performance by the Cardinals offense.

Daniel Castano Lasts Just Four Innings Again On Saturday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Daniel Castano was called up to make Saturday's start against the Milwaukee Brewers and lasted just four innings. He allowed three runs on six hits and two walks, striking out five. The five strikeouts was a season high for Castano and actually doubled his season total. He simply doesn't make batters […]

Kyle Higashioka Goes Yard Saturday

New York Yankees catcher Kyle Higashioka swatted his fifth home run of the season in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Nationals. Higashioka's homer was the first hit of the game for the Yankee offense, as Max Scherzer had retired the first seven batters of the game before allowing the long ball. The 31-year-old backstop owns […]

Cody Bellinger Ramping Up Activity

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Cody Bellinger (leg) has been running at 60 percent, according to Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register.

Gleyber Torres Delivers Game-Winning Hit

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres went 2-for-5 with a pair of RBI in Saturday's extra-innings victory over the Nationals.

Zach McKinstry Continues To Make Progress

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Zach McKinstry (oblique) continues to make progress toward a return. The 26-year-old has been on the 10-day injured list with a right oblique strain but is expected to be out a little longer, so the news is encouraging for those fantasy managers benefiting from his production this season. McKinstry is […]

Scott Alexander Not Expected To Be Out Long

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Scott Alexander (shoulder) shouldn't be out long, according to J.P. Hoornstra of the L.A. Daily News.
