Kenneth Walker III Making Progress

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (groin) hasn't practiced since the first day of training camp, but head coach Pete Carroll has said it isn't a serious injury.

Marlon Mack Done For The Year With Torn Achilles

Arizona Cardinals running back Marlon Mack (Achilles) will miss the entire 2023 season after tearing his left Achilles in practice on Tuesday at training camp, according to head coach Jonathan Gannon. It's a tough break for Mack, who also tore his right Achilles in Week 1 of the 2020 season. There's a chance we won't […]

New York Yankees rookie shortstop Anthony Volpe is taking a day off on Wednesday against the Chicago White Sox.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Jake McCarthy will retreat to the bench on Wednesday in the series finale against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers.

Corbin Carroll Hitting Leadoff, Geraldo Perdomo Drops To Ninth

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll will bat leadoff on Wednesday against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers and right-hander Bobby Miller. Meanwhile, shortstop Geraldo Perdomo drops to the nine-hole. Carroll has mostly been hitting near the top of Arizona's batting order, so the switch shouldn't affect him all that much. The 22-year-old has been excellent across […]

Luis Severino Not Starting Wednesday

New York Yankees right-hander Luis Severino will not serve as the traditional starter on Wednesday against the Chicago White Sox, with the Yankees choosing instead to use Ian Hamilton as an opener.

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (forearm) is back at shortstop and batting leadoff for the Sox on Wednesday against the New York Yankees and right-handed opener Ian Hamilton.

Ronald Acuna Jr. In Wednesday's Lineup

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (elbow) is right back in right field and in his customary leadoff spot on Wednesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates and rookie right-hander Quinn Priester after getting hit by a pitch on his left elbow in Tuesday's contest.

Justin Turner Absent From BoSox's Lineup

As expected, Boston Red Sox infielder/designated hitter Justin Turner (heel) will miss another game on Wednesday against the visiting Kansas City Royals, and he'll likely be out on Thursday for the series finale in KC, too.

Mike Tauchman On Bench Against Southpaw

Chicago Cubs outfielder Mike Tauchman will get a day of rest on Wednesday with the team facing left-hander David Peterson and the New York Mets.

Kyle Schwarber, Bryson Stott Resting Against Lefty

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder/designated hitter Kyle Schwarber and infielder Bryson Stott are both sitting out on Wednesday against left-hander MacKenzie Gore and the Washington Nationals.

Tyler O'Neill Scratched From Lineup Again

Updating a previous report, St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (knee) has been scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the Tampa Bay Rays for the second straight day due to left-knee tightness.

Max Kepler Returns Against Tigers

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (foot) is back in right field and is batting in the three-hole on Wednesday as he faces right-hander Alex Faedo and the Detroit Tigers. Kepler took the day off on Tuesday after he was hit by a pitch on his right foot during Monday's contest. The 30-year-old left-handed slugger is […]

Tyler O'Neill Returns For Wednesday's Game

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (knee) is back in the starting lineup on Wednesday, starting in left field and batting sixth against Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Jalen Beeks.

Fact or Fiction? Testing Fantasy Football Draft Strategies Using "Teams In A Vacuum" Concept

What can we learn from history? I mean -- the important history -- fantasy football history. Suppose you took season results from the past several years and snake-drafted teams backward to make “perfect leagues.”  Or you had years of the most trusted draft rankings and used them to draft “expected leagues.” Starting from the best […]

Brycen Mautz - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Brycen Mautz, SP, St. Louis Cardinals ANALYSIS: The Cardinals picked the 6'3" lefty Brycen Mautz out of the University of San Diego last summer in the second round.

Impressive Sophomore Season Earns Todd Gilliland Extension At FRM

Coming into the 2023 season, the confidence that Front Row Motorsports had in Todd Gilliland seemed to be on shaky ground. Despite having a rookie season in 2022 where Gilliland captured two top-10 finishes and had an impressive 23.2 average finish, Front Row Motorsports decided to let Zane Smith replace Gilliland in six races during […]

Safe To Avoid Matt Kuchar In Memphis

Matt Kuchar has made three straight cuts heading into the FedEx St. Jude Championship, but it's still hard to believe he landed 60th in the FedEx ranking system with how little we've heard about him this season...
