Tyler Mahle To Miss Next Start

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Tyler Mahle (elbow) received an MRI and X-rays on his throwing arm and will miss his next start, per manager Rocco Baldelli.

Brandon Woodruff Has A Positive MRI Follow Up

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) had a "very positive" MRI follow-up on his right shoulder, according to General Manager Matt Arnold. The GM also told reporters that he expects Woodruff back in the starting rotation by the end of June. The hard-throwing 30-year-old hit the injured list earlier in April with a right […]

Brandon Crawford Out On Sunday

San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford (calf) is absent from the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the San Diego Padres in Mexico City. The veteran shortstop exited Saturday's contest early with calf tightness so he'll be getting a day off on Sunday to heal up. Thairo Estrada is taking over at shortstop and batting […]

Corbin Carroll Absent From The Lineup On Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll (knee) is not in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Colorado Rockies. Carroll suffered a knee contusion while attempting to make a leaping catch during Saturday's contest. He left that game early and it looks like he needs another day to get right. The dynamic 22-year-old should be […]

Jonathan India Sitting Out On Sunday

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Jonathan India is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Oakland Athletics. This looks to be a routine day off for the 26-year-old, who is off to a rock-solid start this season. India is slashing .283/.392/.394 with one home run, 11 RBI, and five stolen bases across 99 at-bats […]

Tim Anderson, Andrew Benintendi Could Be Back Tuesday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (knee), outfielders Andrew Benintendi (elbow) and Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) and infielder Hanser Alberto (quadriceps) could all return to the team by Tuesday.

Taj Bradley - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickup and Stash

Tampa Bay's move to send down their top pitching prospect, Taj Bradley after three starts left the fantasy community scratching their heads on Tuesday.

Jose Miranda Not Playing Versus Royals

Minnesota Twins third baseman Jose Miranda is not in the team's starting lineup on Sunday against the Kansas City Royals. This will be Miranda's first day of rest so far in 2023.

Braves-Mets Postponed Sunday

The game between the Atlanta Braves and New York Mets on Sunday has been postponed due to inclement weather in the area. The contest will be made up as part of a split doubleheader on Monday, May 1. Right-hander Spencer Strider was scheduled to start for the Braves, while right-hander Tylor Megill was going to […]

Anthony Santander Resting Against Tigers

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander is taking the day off on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers. Santander will get a little breather after going 2-for-7 with a run scored in Saturday's doubleheader against Detroit. The 28-year-old Venezuelan outfielder hasn't done much for Baltimore on offense so far in 2023, as he's gone just 20-for-94 (.213) […]

Dodgers Call Up Gavin Stone

The Los Angeles Dodgers called up No. 4 prospect Gavin Stone from the minors, according to a source. The plan is for Stone to start against the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday in what will be his major-league debut. The 24-year-old right-hander impressed everyone in spring training and has pitched much better in his last two […]

Jazz Chisholm Jr. Hitting Sixth Against Lefty

Miami Marlins outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. is starting in center field and is hitting sixth in the lineup against left-hander Justin Steele and the Chicago Cubs on Sunday. Normally the team's leadoff hitter, Chisholm will have considerably less DFS appeal with the move down the batting order against a southpaw on Sunday. He's hitting .130 […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups for Fantasy Baseball - Week 6

I really screwed the pooch here last week. My first recommendation was Kyle Bradish and I called him a "priority pickup". Some of you probably picked him up and started him after that, and you were punished by him on Tuesday as he gave up seven earned runs on eight hits and four walks. Your […]
