Jake Diekman Dominates In Ninth Inning

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Jake Diekman was tasked with coming in to close the door in the ninth inning on Sunday. Normally, Matt Barnes (back) would be the closer, but he has been unavailable due to injury. Manager Alex Cora turned to Matt Strahm in the seventh inning and Hansel Robles in the eighth. […]

Sidney Crosby Scores Game-Winning Goal Against Predators

Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby finished with three points and scored the game-winning goal in Sunday's 3-2 overtime victory against the Predators. Crosby had two goals and an assist in the contest, bringing his season total up to 28 goals and 75 points through 61 games. Additionally, Crosby's three-point performance helped him reach 1,400 points […]

C.J. Cron Goes Deep In Sunday's Victory

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron was a big part of the 9-4 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, going 2-for-4 with a two-run home run off of Julio Urias. Cron is off to a good start thus far, hitting .333 with a .916 OPS. The 32-year-old is starting his second season with […]

Maxi Kleber Will Be Ready For The Playoffs

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (ankle) will be ready in time for the playoffs, according to head coach Jason Kidd. He has missed each of the last four games due to right ankle soreness. Although, the Mavs have likely been extra cautious with him because the playoffs are about to begin. The Mavs have been […]

Stephen Curry Could Be Ready For Game 1

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (foot) has a chance at suiting up for the first round of the postseason. The All-Star guard has been sidelined since mid-March, but could be ready in time for their upcoming playoff series, according to head coach Steve Kerr. It sounds like the team is taking it day-by-day, but […]

Aaron Gordon Won't Suit Up Versus Lakers

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (rest) will sit out Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Nuggets aren't going to risk any injuries to their starters right before the playoffs. That being said, Gordon will sit this one out and Jeff Green will move into the starting five. There could be streaming value here […]

Donovan Mitchell Will Sit Out Versus Blazers

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was listed as questionable, but the Jazz have decided to rest Mitchell due to a non-COVID related illness. Now, Jordan Clarkson and Danuel House Jr. will be asked to pick up the slack on Sunday. Clarkson […]

Moses Moody To Start On Sunday

Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody will move into the starting five for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He'll be joined by Jordan Poole, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Kevon Looney in the regular season finale. Andrew Wiggins (rest) will sit this one out, so Moody will get a chance with the starters. […]

Dwight Howard To Rest On Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard (rest) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The veteran big man will see his season come to an end as this contest is the regular season finale. The potential is there for Howard to be a fantasy contributor, but it needs to be the perfect […]

Josh Rogers Likely To Start Monday

With Washington Nationals starting pitcher Anibal Sanchez (neck) now doubtful to make his season debut on Monday at the Atlanta Braves, left-hander Josh Rogers is the likeliest candidate to take the bump in Sanchez's absence. Sanchez has been dealing with stiffness in his next the last few days, and the 38-year-old could require a stint […]

Blake Snell To Land On IL, Mackenzie Gore Could Pitch Friday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) is probably headed to the injured list, but manager Bob Melvin said Snell's adductor injury isn't nearly as serious as the one that shut the left-hander down last September. The 29-year-old was scratched from his season debut on Sunday against the Arizona Diamondbacks with adductor tightness, and […]

Steven Matz Crushed In Loss To Pirates

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Steven Matz had an ugly outing versus the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday. He only lasted three innings, allowing nine hits and seven earned runs in the 9-4 loss. This is quite surprising considering the Pirates lineup is actually better versus right-handed pitching. Nonetheless, Matz got crushed and allowed a ton […]

Carlos Carrasco Solid In No-Decision

New York Mets starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco went 5 2/3 very strong innings pitched in the Mets' 4-2 loss to the Washington Nationals on Sunday. Carrasco did not factor into the decision, allowing only one run on two hits while striking out five batters. After allowing a first inning home run, he settled in and […]

Seiya Suzuki Hits First Career Homer

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki has been surprisingly solid through his first three regular season games. On Wednesday, Suzuki kicked off the game with a three-run home run in the first inning. It was his first career home run and was an 111-mph shot off right-hander Freddy Peralta. Suzuki has shown plenty of patience early […]

Marcus Stroman Solid In No-Decision

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Marcus Stroman made his team debut versus the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday. Stroman was sharp through five innings, but unable to get the win. He went five innings, two hits allowed, one earned run, three walks, and three strikeouts in the no-decision. Honestly, his only significant mistake was a home run […]

Dean Kremer Likely Headed To Injured List

Baltimore Orioles pitcher Dean Kremer (oblique) was forced to exit before making his season debut on Sunday. Kremer suffered a left oblique strain while warming up for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. He was a candidate to start on Tuesday, but could be headed to the injured list. Kremer struggled with the Orioles […]

DJ Stewart Optioned To Minors

Baltimore Orioles outfielder DJ Stewart has been optioned to the minor leagues on Sunday. The 28-year-old outfielder went hitless over the weekend, so he'll head to Triple-A to continue working on his game. Stewart hit .204/.324/.374 with 12 home runs and 33 RBI in 100 games with the Orioles last season. There wasn't much reason […]

Matt Barnes Remains Out On Sunday

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes (back) won't be available for Sunday's game against the New York Yankees. Barnes continues to deal with back stiffness, but is hopeful to avoid a trip to the injured list. The Red Sox are hopeful that Barnes will be available out of the bullpen on Monday. Until then, […]
