Nick Senzel Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Sunday. The 25-year-old had surgery on his left knee back in May to address inflammation and isn't expected to return until July anyway, so the move appears to be more of a formality. Senzel is batting .252, with 28 hits, 18 […]

Taylor Rogers Records Sixth Save

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Taylor Rogers notched his sixth save of the season in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Houston Astros. Rogers needed just nine pitches to shut the door on the Astros, striking out a pair of batters in the process. He generated four whiffs, all on his slider, which has been his best […]

For the first time in the race's history, the annual NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race will take place deep in the heart of Texas at Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday evening (June 13). And there are a lot of unknowns. It would take me a solid half hour to explain the rules of the race to […]

Jose Berrios Fans Eight In Seventh Victory

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Jose Berrios was solid over seven innings of two-run ball in Saturday's win over the Houston Astros, his seventh of the year. Berrios allowed five hits and a walk while striking out eight batters. The veteran righty only generated six whiffs but painted the zone for 24 called strikes, 11 of […]

Aristides Aquino Activated From 60-Day IL

The Cincinnati Reds activated outfielder Aristides Aquino (hand) from the 60-day injured list ahead of their Sunday game against the Colorado Rockies. Aquino has appeared in just 10 games in 2021 before breaking the hamate bone in his hand and landing on the injured list. His role with the club is unclear but Aquino is […]

Welcome back to the Cut List. This is our weekly article looking at players who fantasy managers could consider cutting from their teams and struggling players who need a closer look. We'll look at players who are worthy of a drop, players who are worth monitoring for replacing, and someone on the hot seat who is […]

Max Stassi (C, LAA) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: It took years of limited opportunity with mixed success for Max Stassi hanging around the majors, but full seasons for the Angels seem to be doing him wonders. Last season was his breakout campaign at the age of 29, hitting for seven […]

Jake Fraley (OF, SEA) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of leagues ANALYSIS: Maybe it's the playing time or the Seattle youth movement, but Jake Fraley finally looks like a complete major league product in 2021. He had struggled mightily in his previous 66 AB in 2019 and 2020 for the M's, but in 40 […]

Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox - Yesterday's Recap

Welcome to the June 13th edition of Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox. Discussing baseball is as fun as the game itself.

Orelvis Martinez Flexing Muscles At Low-A

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop prospect Orelvis Martinez went 3-for-5 with two doubles on Saturday. The 19-year-old infielder has seen 17 of his 37 hits go for extra bases during his first taste of full-season ball. Formerly a top international signee, Martinez has always flashed above-average power for his age and slugged seven home runs in […]

Coaching Matters: 2021 Los Angeles Chargers Coaching Staff Preview

After every NFL season, NFL teams take the time to evaluate not only the players but also the coaching staff and front office as well. While many teams choose to retain the same head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator, a few other teams opt to go in a new direction with their coaching staff. […]

Daniel Bard (RP, COL) - Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: Just pick up Daniel Bard. Seriously, I get the stigma around "RP-COL" in fantasy, but it's getting ridiculous to see Bard on waivers. Bard hasn't allowed an earned run since May 12. In that span, he's picked up five saves and struck out […]

Oneil Cruz Heating Up At Double-A

Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop Oneil Cruz went 3-for-3 with a double and a home run on Saturday at Double-A. The homer was his eighth of the season in 30 games. With a 55% ground-ball rate, Cruz has much more power to tap into if he can make some adjustments to his swing. He's also flashed some […]

Hunter Renfroe (OF, BOS) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: Hunter Renfroe is largely known as a power-only, defense-first outfielder.  That isn't terribly inaccurate, as Renfroe has a career .232/.291/.480 slash line with 104 home runs.  In his first year in Boston, Renfroe's slash line is largely in line with his career numbers […]

Edward Cabrera Making Up for Lost Time In Rehab Outing

Miami Marlins pitching prospect Edward Cabrera (biceps inflammation) made his second rehab start of the year on Saturday after recovering from the injury that kept him out for the first month of the season. The 23-year-old right-hander struck out eight batters in three shutout innings. He threw 32 of his 51 (63%) pitches for strikes. […]

Christian Arroyo (2B, 3B, BOS) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Christian Arroyo returned from the injured list on May 25, and since that time he has been very hot, batting .303 with a .954 OPS in 11 games with two home runs and three doubles.  He's scored five runs and driven in nine […]

Jarren Duran (OF, BOS) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Jarren Duran is widely regarded to be one of Boston's top prospects, a player who has significantly raised his profile among both fans and experts alike since the 2021 minor-league season began.  In 21 games and 85 at-bats at Triple-A Worcester this season, […]

Francisco Alvarez's Value Keeps Rising At High-A

New York Mets catching prospect Francisco Alvarez went 2-for-4 with a double and a home run on Saturday. Just 19, he continues to show why he's one of the top-ranked catchers in dynasty baseball. He opened the 2021 season in Low-A but hit .417 with a 15-7 BB-K in 15 games to earn a promotion. […]

Cesar Hernandez (2B, CLE) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 15% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Cesar Hernandez leads off every night in Cleveland, and he's managed a mediocre .220/.299/.388 slash line in 58 games and 227 at-bats for the season as of Friday afternoon.  To call that line pedestrian would be generous.  However, Statcast data indicates that Hernandez […]

Nolan Gorman Hits Three Homers, Is A Must-Have Dynasty Target

St. Louis Cardinals prospect Nolan Gorman is on a massive hot streak. The 21-year-old third baseman went 3-for-4 with three home runs and a walk on Saturday. Gorman's calling card has always been his power — even going back to his amateur days in high school. Selected 19th overall in 2018 because of his raw […]

Robbie Grossman (OF, DET) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Robbie Grossman appeared on the scene in 2013, and is now on his fourth major-league club.  He's never had more than 420 at-bats, 11 homers, or nine steals in a year.  At first glance, he wouldn't seem relevant for fantasy, but Grossman has […]

Kelvin Gutierrez Hits His First Home Run Against Athletics

Kansas City Royals third baseman Kelvin Gutierrez had a strong game at the plate in the team's 11-2 loss to the Oakland Athletics on Saturday. Gutierrez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a triple. The home run was his first of the year. Gutierrez has had an everyday role for the Royals for […]

Cade Cavalli Strikes Out 15 Batters At High-A

Washington Nationals pitching prospect Cade Cavalli struck out 15 batters over seven no-hit innings on Saturday. The 22-year-old hurler has been dominant in 2021. He lowered his ERA to 1.77 and now has an eye-popping K-BB ratio of 71-12 in 40 2/3 innings of work. Cavalli was selected 22nd overall in the 2020 draft and […]

Jackson Kowar Tagged For Four Runs In 1 1/3 Innings

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jackson Kowar made his second career MLB start against the Oakland Athletics on Saturday and it unfortunately went just about as poorly as his first start. Kowar pitched 1 1/3 innings and allowed five hits, three walks and four earned runs while recording just one strikeout. He's now gone a […]

Willy Adames (SS, MIL) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 21% of leagues ANALYSIS: Most of you drafted, and gave up on, Adames already this season. It's understandable. At the time of his trade to Milwaukee for relievers J.P. Feyereisen and Drew Rasmussen, Adames was slashing an atrocious .197/.254/.371, by far the lowest marks of his […]
