Joe Ryan Looks Excellent On Sunday

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Joe Ryan was outstanding on the mound during Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Ryan recorded 10 strikeouts as he allowed two runs (one earned) in a no-decision on Sunday. The right-hander gave up six hits and didn't walk any batters during this outing. He was shaky during his last start, […]

Zach Neto Crushes Three-Run Homer

Los Angeles Angels infielder Zach Neto has put together a sneaky solid season through the first half of the 2024 campaign. He continued his impressive season during Sunday's game against the Detroit Tigers. It was a quiet game for Neto until he blasted a three-run home run off right-hander Shelby Miller in the ninth inning. […]

Paul Sewald Tosses Perfect Inning

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Paul Sewald came in for a non-save situation during Sunday's game against the Oakland Athletics. The D-Backs were already up four runs, but handed the ball to Sewald anyway. The right-hander struck out two batters as he tossed a perfect ninth inning on Sunday. The 34-year-old has been fantastic on the […]

Brandon Pfaadt Records Eight Strikeouts

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Brandon Pfaadt put together a solid outing against the Oakland Athletics on Sunday. The 25-year-old notched eight strikeouts while allowing only one run over six innings of work in a no-decision. Pfaadt carried a shutout into the fifth inning until Zack Gelof took him deep. This was a nice outing for […]

James Paxton Destroyed On Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher James Paxton had one of his worst outings of his career during Sunday's game against the San Francisco Giants. It didn't seem like anything went right for Paxton throughout this contest. The southpaw gave up nine runs on 12 hits over four innings of work in the loss. He struck […]

Nick Castellanos Collects Four Hits

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos was nearly unstoppable at the plate during Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. The Phillies are missing multiple key pieces in the lineup, but luckily Castellanos has stepped up nicely. On Sunday, Castellanos went 4-for-5 with a double, three RBI, and a stolen base in the win. The veteran outfielder […]

Jeff Hoffman Earns Save On Sunday

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Jeff Hoffman was called upon to close out Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. The right-hander struck out one batter while throwing a scoreless inning to earn his sixth save of the season. Normally, Jose Alvarado is tasked with the closer role in Philly. However, he pitched on Saturday, so the […]

Bryan De La Cruz Blasts Homer On Sunday

Miami Marlins outfielder Bryan De La Cruz has been a nice source of power for this offense through the first few months of the season. On Sunday, De La Cruz went 2-for-4 with a home run and two runs scored in the win over the Philadelphia Phillies. He is now up to 15 homers, which […]

Ranger Suarez Lit Up For Six Runs

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Ranger Suarez was hit around during Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. This was undoubtedly his worst start of the season as Suarez was hit around for nine hits and six earned runs in the no-decision. He only lasted 4 2/3 innings and didn't record a strikeout. It was an ugly […]

Aaron Judge Goes Yard In Win

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge continued his MVP-type season versus the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday. The superstar slugger went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run off right-hander Kevin Gausman during Sunday's win. This is unbelievable as Judge has 31 home runs and 82 RBI before the month of July. Fantasy managers can continue […]

Kevin Gausman Struggles In Loss

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Kevin Gausman was unable to find much success on the mound during Sunday's game against the New York Yankees. The right-hander allowed seven runs on seven hits while walking five batters over 4 1/3 innings in the loss. The 33-year-old has not looked like himself this season as he struggled […]

Casey Mize Exits Early On Sunday

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Casey Mize (hamstring) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. The right-hander was seen grabbing his hamstring after trying to go after a foul pop-up. He was taken out with one out in the sixth inning and a 7-0 lead. Before exiting, Mize allowed three […]

Mitch Garver Forced To Exit Early

Seattle Mariners catcher Mitch Garver (wrist) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Garver was hit by a pitch during the second inning. He was able to stay in and run the bases, but Garver left the game afterwards. The team is calling the injury a right wrist contusion. For the moment, […]

Corey Seager Absent On Sunday

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (hand) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. This doesn't come as much of a surprise after Seager was hit by a pitch on the hand during Saturday's game. As a result, the Rangers will hold out Seager for at least one game. […]

Rafael Devers Slugs 18th Homer Sunday

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers hit his 18th home run in a 4-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. Devers had two hits and two RBI in the game. The veteran is hitting .286 on the season and also has 45 RBI, a stolen base and 49 runs scored. Devers has […]

Taj Bradley Earns Win Sunday

Randy Arozarena Homers Sunday

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena homered on Sunday to lead the team to a 5-0 victory over the Washington Nationals. The veteran outfielder connected for his 11th homer off reliever Jordan Weems. Arozarena is hitting a disappointing .196 with 11 home runs, 28 RBI, 10 stolen bases, and 25 runs scored on the year. […]

When Will Jeffrey Springs Return and Be Back? Fantasy Baseball Injury Update

Last season, Jeffrey Springs started the year out looking like a potential Cy Young Award candidate. Springs, who was coming off a breakout campaign in 2022 (2.46 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 144 strikeouts in 135 innings) made just three starts before suffering a season-ending elbow injury. He looked even more impressive in 2023 before the injury, […]

Javier Baez To Begin Rehab Assignment Monday

Veteran shortstop Javier Baez (back) hopes to begin a rehab assignment this coming week for the Detroit Tigers. Baez is hitting .183 with one home run, 25 RBI, and 15 runs. He is expected to report to Triple-A Toledo on Monday. Manager A.J Hinch reported that if all goes well this week, the team expects […]

Aroldis Chapman Earns Save Sunday Afternoon

Pittsburgh Pirates closer Aroldis Chapman earned his third save of the season in a 4-2 victory over the Atlanta Braves. Chapman surrendered a run on two hits in his one inning of work. He is closing games in lieu of David Bednar, who is on the IL with an oblique injury and an uncertain return. […]

When Will Bryce Harper Return and Be Back? Fantasy Baseball Injury Update

Everything was going right for the Phillies this season. Just three days ago, they had the best record in baseball and a relatively healthy ball club heading into the second half of the season. Then Philly superstar Bryce Harper came up lame after running through the first base bag on what would be the last […]

Joe Kelly Won't Return Before All-Star Break

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Joe Kelly (shoulder) won't be ready to return before the All-Star break, according to Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. The right-hander has been on the injured list since early May due to a shoulder issue. The 36-year-old will require a rehab assignment before returning. Once he returns, Kelly figures to pitch […]

When Will Mike Trout Return and Be Back? Fantasy Baseball Injury Update

Fantasy managers who have been holding Mike Trout for the last two months are finally getting some good news. When talking to reporters this weekend, Trout sounded very optimistic about a late July return. That's certainly not an official timeframe as it's coming from the athlete personally, but if Trout does end up returning with […]

Oneil Cruz Blasts Two-Run Homer

Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop Oneil Cruz came up clutch for his team during Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The 25-year-old smacked a 452-foot two-run home run off Spencer Schwellenbach in the fifth inning to give the Pirates the lead. Cruz finished the day 2-for-3 with two RBI and a walk in the victory. The potential […]

Gabriel Moreno Could Be Activated On Tuesday

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno (thumb) appears to be extremely close to making a return to the field. The organization believes that Moreno could be activated as early as Tuesday. The 24-year-old was placed on the injured list last Saturday due to a sprained left thumb. The D-Backs have said they don't believe Moreno will […]

Brendan Rodgers Absent On Sunday

Colorado Rockies infielder Brendan Rodgers is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Chicago White Sox. There doesn't appear to be an injury here, so this looks to be a routine rest day for Rodgers. As a result, Aaron Schunk will make his first career start at second base and bat […]
