Buyer Beware? Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Analysis for Week 1 (2025)

Ah, spring has truly sprung. You couldn’t tell from the fans in Cincinnati bundled in Carhartts or the Seattle faithful decked in trident slickers, but baseball began in all its mellow glory on Thursday.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider (elbow) was able to put together a strong rehab start with Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday. The right-hander allowed one run while striking out six batters across three innings of work. Strider was reportedly able to throw over 40 of his 60 pitches for strikes. The expectation is that Strider […]

Manny Machado Exits Early On Saturday

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado (calf) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Machado appears to have tweaked his calf while swinging the bat. As a precaution, Machado was removed from Saturday's game and Jose Iglesias replaced him at the hot corner. The expectation is that Machado will […]

Dereck Lively II Ruled Out Versus Chicago

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (ankle) won't play on Saturday against the Bulls. He hasn't played since January. However, the 21-year-old was listed as doubtful heading into this one, so there's a good chance he'll be back at some point in the next few games. Daniel Gafford (knee) also won't suit up, meaning Kai […]

Daniel Gafford Officially Out On Saturday

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (knee) won't play on Saturday against the Bulls. He was listed as doubtful heading into this one. Fortunately, there's a good chance fantasy managers will see him back on the floor at some point in the next few games. With Dereck Lively II (ankle) also ruled out, Kai Jones (hip), […]

P.J. Washington Available Versus Chicago

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against Chicago after missing the last two games. Dallas is fighting to at least make the Play-In, so having Washington back in the lineup is excellent news. Anthony Davis (adductor) is also good to go. But with Daniel Gafford (knee), Kyrie Irving (knee), and […]

Anthony Davis Available On Saturday Night

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) will play on Saturday against the Bulls. Fantasy managers will likely see him on the injury report for the remainder of the regular season and into the playoffs/Play-In, assuming Dallas makes it that far. But at least fantasy managers will know they'll have him in the lineup on Saturday […]

Doug Kramer Jr. Re-Signs With Chicago

The Chicago Bears have re-signed offensive lineman Doug Kramer Jr. to a one-year, $1.03 million deal. It will be his third season with the squad. The former sixth-round pick appeared in 16 games for Chicago last season, participating in 84 snaps (7.39%) for the team. Kramer missed the entirety of his rookie season (2022) due […]

Gleyber Torres To Miss Saturday's Game

Detroit Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres (ribs) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Torres was removed early during Friday's game due to rib injury. This doesn't appear to be something that will land Torres on the injured list. For now, fantasy managers should consider Torres as […]

Gio Urshela Heads To The Bench

Athletics third baseman Gio Urshela (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Urshela will get a rest day here after playing in the first two games of the season. He has gone 1-for-7 at the plate, so maybe a night off will help him get back on […]

Foster Sarell Inks One-Year Contract With Washington

Free-agent offensive lineman Foster Sarell signed a one-year, $1.1 million contract with the Washington Commanders. The 26-year-old signed as an undrafted free agent with the Baltimore Ravens in 2022 but found his way to the Los Angeles Chargers, where he spent the last three seasons. Sarell appeared in 35 games for L.A. (three starts), all […]

Matt Shaw Taking A Seat On Saturday

Chicago Cubs third baseman Matt Shaw (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The rookie slugger will get a day off after playing in the first four games to begin the season. Gage Workman will cover third base and bat eighth versus right-hander Brandon Pfaadt. Workman put […]

Nico Hoerner Not Playing On Saturday

Chicago Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Cubs continue to be cautious with Hoerner who missed the opening two games in Tokyo while recovering from flexor tendon surgery. He went 0-for-4 on Friday, so the Cubs will give Hoerner a […]

Mookie Betts Sitting Out On Saturday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder/infielder Mookie Betts (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Betts was red-hot during Friday's game as he smacked two homers and collected four RBI. His reward will be a rest day on Saturday, but fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned as this appears to […]

Willie Gay Jr. Heading To Miami

The Miami Dolphins have signed linebacker Willie Gay Jr. to a one-year, $1.33 million deal. The former New Orleans Saint is entering his sixth season after the Kansas City Chiefs took him in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

Devin Carter Won't Return On Saturday

Sacramento Kings guard Devin Carter (shoulder) won't return to Saturday's meeting with the Magic after logging only one minute. The rookie missed a few months because of a left shoulder injury to begin his tenure in the National Basketball Association. While his most recent injury is to his right shoulder, it's still not an ideal […]

Jose Ramirez Exits Early On Saturday

Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez (wrist) was pulled out early during Saturday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Ramirez appears to have suffered a right wrist sprain during his stolen base attempt earlier in the game. He remained in the game for a bit afterwards, but looked sluggish during his at-bat in the sixth […]

D'Anthony Bell Signs With Seattle

The Seattle Seahawks have signed former Cleveland Browns safety D'Anthony Bell to a one-year, $1.37 million deal. Bell signed with the Browns as an undrafted free agent in 2022, appearing in 50 games over the ensuing three seasons with seven starts for the team. The 28-year-old was more of a special-teams specialist for Cleveland, registering […]

Marcus Smart Returning On Saturday Night

Washington Wizards guard Marcus Smart (illness) will suit up on Saturday versus the Wizards after missing the last two games. The 31-year-old has averaged only 10.1 points in 12 games since arriving in Washington ahead of the trade deadline. However, with Malcolm Brogdon (ankle), Bilal Coulibaly (hamstring), Kyshawn George (ankle), and Khris Middleton (knee) ruled […]

Noah Clowney Available On Saturday

Brooklyn Nets forward Noah Clowney (illness) is available for Saturday's game against the Wizards. He had five points and shot a rough 1-for-9 from the field in the loss to the Raptors on Wednesday. However, the 20-year-old didn't suit up for Friday's matchup with the Clippers because of an illness. Clowney has averaged 9.0 points […]

Chet Holmgren Ruled Out On Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (hip) won't play on Saturday against the Pacers. The 22-year-old missed a few months earlier in the season because of a hip injury, so the team has given him time off sporadically since he returned to the lineup in February. With OKC having already locked up the top spot […]

Nikita Zadorov Set To Rejoin Bruins Lineup Saturday

Boston Bruins defenseman Nikita Zadorov (personal) practiced on Friday and looks to be on track to play in Saturday's contest against the Detroit Red Wings. The Russian rearguard missed Wednesday's loss to the Anaheim Ducks for personal reasons. Ian Mitchell filled in for Zadorov and is likely to come out of the lineup on Saturday […]

Chandler Stephenson A Game-Time Decision Saturday

Seattle Kraken center Chandler Stephenson (upper body) is a game-time decision for Saturday's matchup against the Dallas Stars. Stephenson has missed three games due to an upper-body injury, but he returned to practice earlier in the week and took part in Saturday's morning skate, which indicates that there's a strong chance Stephenson will return against […]
