Yusei Kikuchi Pitches Well Before Exiting
Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi (knee) was forced out of Saturday's matchup with a knee contusion after being hit by a comebacker, but he was pitching quite well up to that point.

Jake Fraley Hits Grand Slam
Seattle Mariners outfielder Jake Fraley hit his second career home-run Saturday night, a grand slam off Angels starter Alex Cobb in the top of the fourth inning. It was his only hit in the contest.

Alex Verdugo Reaches Base Three Times Saturday
Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo had a strong showing Saturday night, going 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, and a run scored.

Bobby Dalbec Hits Monster Home Run Saturday
Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec was not originally in Saturday's lineup, but took advantage of the opportunity when he was inserted due to J.D. Martinez's jammed wrist. Dalbec went 1-for-4 with a very deep two-run home run to left-center field that gave Boston a 7-3 lead. Dalbec has a disappointing .633 OPS with […]

Yusei Kikuchi Injured Saturday
Seattle Mariners pitcher Yusei Kikuchi left Saturday's game against the Angels due to a knee injury. The left-hander took a ground ball off the inside of his knee.

Giants Recall Camilo Doval
San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Camilo Doval has been recalled by the organization on Saturday. He will take the spot of Scott Kazmir who was designated for assignment by the Giants. Doval has an ugly stat line in the majors, but has been one of their better bullpen arms during his time in the minors. […]

Mike Trout Remains Without Timetable
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (calf) is without a timetable for his return, according to manager Joe Maddon. The superstar outfielder has been on the injured list since the middle of May. He suffered a Grade 2 calf strain, so the Angels aren't going to rush him back onto the field. Hopefully, Trout will […]

Aledmys Diaz Exits Saturday’s Game Due To Injury
Houston Astros second baseman Aledmys Diaz (hand) exited Saturday's game against Toronto. Diaz was nailed by a pitch in the fourth inning and was officially diagnosed with a left-hand contusion. While the injury could have been worse, it certainly isn't welcome news for fantasy managers who have enjoyed his uptick in production this season. There […]

Jon Gray Moves To The IL
Colorado Rockies pitcher Jon Gray (elbow) has landed on the 10-day injured list. The veteran was forced out of Friday's matchup against Oakland with right elbow soreness.

Colin Moran Expected To Be Activated Sunday
Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Colin Moran (groin) is likely to be activated off the 10-day injured list on Sunday. The lefty infielder was in the dugout for Saturday's contest, so Moran is back with the team. Obviously, Moran has finished his rehab assignment, so fantasy managers should expect him back in the lineup soon. Moran […]

Garrett Cooper Likely To Miss A Few Games
Miami Marlins first baseman Garrett Cooper (back) was unable to play in Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. It appears Cooper is dealing with back stiffness, so the team is giving him a few days off. Fantasy managers should consider Cooper day-to-day, but it doesn't sound like he'll land on the injured list. Cooper is […]

Billy Hamilton Removed From Saturday’s Matchup
Chicago White Sox outfielder Billy Hamilton (side) was removed from Saturday's contest against the Detroit Tigers. Hamilton made it to the fourth inning before exiting with right-side soreness, and skipper Tony La Russa later speculated that he is dealing with an oblique injury. Regardless, it doesn't sound good, so fantasy managers should prepare for an […]

Seth Frankoff Lands On The Injured List
Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Seth Frankoff (forearm) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Frankoff is dealing with right forearm tightness, but with a shotty 0-2 record and a miserable 9.20 ERA, he is likely not on the roster in many fantasy leagues anyway. Fantasy managers who find him floating around as a free […]
