The San Diego Padres are still considering signing free-agent outfielder Tommy Pham, according to the New York Post's Jon Heyman. San Diego remains linked to Pham after the two sides were reportedly close to reaching an agreement in mid-March, and the 36-year-old left fielder could supply some depth to the Padres' thin outfield.

Yasmani Grandal's Return Is Not Imminent
Pittsburgh Pirates manager Derek Shelton said on Tuesday that catcher Yasmani Grandal (foot) is "still a ways away" from returning.

The 35-year-old switch-hitting backstop signed a one-year deal with... Read More
Mo Bamba Questionable For Thursday
Philadelphia 76ers center Mo Bamba (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. The 25-year-old missed Tuesday's contest against the Thunder. Fantasy managers are used to not having Bamba available, as he has missed 23 tilts this season. Joel Embiid (knee), Tyrese Maxey (hip) and Tobias Harris (knee) are also listed as questionable...

New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez (elbow) has increased his throwing to 120 feet.

Alek Manoah Slated For Rehab Assignment
Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah (shoulder) threw a three-inning simulated game in Florida on Tuesday. "He did really well," manager John Schneider said.

Grayson Allen Ruled Out Wednesday
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (hip) is unavailable for Wednesday's tilt against Cleveland. He most recently logged 33 minutes in Monday's victory over the New Orleans Pelicans, posting 11 points. However, the 28-year-old is now on the injury report because of a sore right hip. His absence could open up more minutes for Eric Gordon... Read More
Gary Payton II Listed As Probable For Thursday
Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (ankle) is probable for Thursday's matchup with Houston. He has been dealing with left ankle soreness, but the guard has yet to miss any time due to the injury. If the 31-year-old cannot suit up, it shouldn't impact Golden State's rotation. He's averaged 4.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and... Read More
