Andre Iguodala Out For Game 6, As Expected

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (neck) is out for Friday's postseason matchup against Memphis. Iguodala has a cervical strain, one that's required injections recently. While anything can happen surrounding the veteran's availability moving ahead, DFS managers shouldn't be surprised if he doesn't play at all throughout the rest of the playoffs. He wasn't expected […]

Clayton Kershaw's MRI Reveals No Structural Damage

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw (pelvis) got an MRI on Friday and the results showed no structural damage for the southpaw.

Otto Porter Jr. Unable To Suit Up For Game 6

Golden State Warriors forward Otto Porter Jr. (foot) won't play during Friday's playoff meeting against Memphis.

It's a tough blow for the Warriors, primarily since Porter has been […]

Robert Williams III Dealing With Bone Bruise

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) was ruled out ahead of Friday's pivotal postseason matchup against Milwaukee.

However, head coach Ime Udoka squashed any […]

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager has not performed as well as he might have hoped through his first 114 at-bats with his new team, slashing .237/.302/.430 with seven homers, 13 runs, and 15 RBI. He has homered three times in his last three matchups, but unfortunately those are the only three hits Seager has managed […]

Jose Berrios Enduring Rough May

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Jose Berrios had a mediocre month of April, and things have only gotten worse in May. After putting up a 4.13 ERA in 24 April innings with two quality starts in five tries, Berrios has allowed 11 runs in 10 innings in May with only four strikeouts. All told, that […]

Francisco Lindor Scuffling Through May

New York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor got off to a hot start in 2022, but his production has slowed significantly as the calendar has turned to May. In 46 at-bats this month, Lindor has just six hits. Two have gone for extra bases, including one home run, and he's stolen one base while striking out […]

Robbie Ray Picks Up Strikeout Pace

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Robbie Ray broke out in a big way in 2021, but he has not shown the same level of performance so far this season. Through seven starts, Ray has a 3-3 record with a 4.22 ERA, a 1.17 WHIP, and 41 strikeouts in 42 2/3 innings. That adds up to a […]

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias has been strong through six starts to begin the season, with a 2.10 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and 23 strikeouts in 30 innings pitched. He's currently on a three-game quality start streak and has yet to allow more than three earned runs in an outing. There could be some […]

Chicago Cubs infielder Nico Hoerner (ankle) will remain out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He has been sidelined since Wednesday after suffering an ankle sprain. The 25-year-old is considered day-to-day, so hopefully he can avoid a trip to the injured list. Hoerner has held his own with the bat, […]

Ryan Mountcastle Lands On Injured List

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ryan Mountcastle (wrist) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 11. This is not shocking news after Mountcastle has missed the last few games due to a left wrist strain. The 25-year-old is hitting .268/.299/.402 with four home runs this season. Fantasy managers should be patient with him […]

Robinson Cano Officially Joins Padres

The San Diego Padres have officially agreed to a contract with infielder Robinson Cano. The 39-year-old will get a major league contract after being released by the Mets on May 8.

Grichuk is hitting .281/.323/.449 with four […]

Seiya Suzuki Remains Out On Friday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (ankle) remains out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He left Monday's game due to ankle soreness. Since then, Suzuki has only taken one at-bat, so he could very likely end up on the injured list. In May, Suzuki is hitting .192/.250/.346, so he could […]

Kris Bryant Took Batting Practice On Friday

Colorado Rockies third baseman Kris Bryant (back) took a batting practice session on Friday. He received a cortisone injection on Monday, so it sounds like Bryant is making progress. The 30-year-old has been sidelined since April 25, so he is expected to need a minor league rehab assignment. The Rockies are expected to re-evaluate Bryant […]

Tom Wilson Still Out On Friday

Washington Capitals right wing Tom Wilson (lower body) will remain on the shelf for Friday's Game 6 against Florida. He's been out since playing only 1;31 in the series opener. The 28-year-old power forward remains day-to-day after skating on his own Friday morning. Wilson's absence has allowed T.J. Oshie to make a big impact in […]

Carter Verhaeghe A Game-Time Call On Friday

Florida Panthers forward Carter Verhaeghe (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Friday's Game 6 against Washington. He missed the morning skate, and according to head coach Andrew Brunette, Verhaeghe picked up some sort of an injury on Thursday, which is a lingering issue. Verhaeghe has been Florida's main offensive catalyst during the postseason and even […]

Pittsburgh Penguins winger Rickard Rakell (upper body) could be back in action on Friday against the Rangers, with the team considering him a game-time decision.
