Joe Ross Goes On Injured List With Elbow Inflammation

The Washington Nationals placed starting pitcher Joe Ross (elbow) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with right elbow inflammation and recalled right-hander Ryne Harper from Triple-A Rochester in a corresponding move. It's bad timing for the Nationals and fantasy managers, as Ross had a 2.31 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 39 innings over his […]

Nick Ahmed Goes Hitless In Loss Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Nick Ahmed went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in a 9-3 loss to the Rockies on Thursday.

With […]

Jakobi Meyers Could Remain Productive In 2021

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers was an afterthought in training camp last year, but he emerged as the team's best and most consistent pass-catcher when former first-rounder N'Keal Harry never panned out. Meyers is good at getting open in short areas, runs precise routes and has sure hands and great body control. Even […]

Jarrett Stidham Projected To Make Final Roster

NBC Sports Boston's Tom E. Curran predicts that New England Patriots quarterback Jarrett Stidham will perform well enough in training camp with second-team repetitions to make the final 53-man roster. Cam Newton won't be in New England for the long haul, so Stidham represents an eventual backup to Mac Jones that has been in the […]

Garrett Hampson Strikes Out Four Times

Colorado Rockies outfielder Garrett Hampson went 0-for-6 with four strikeouts in a 9-3 win over the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Hampson started in center field and got to hit out of the leadoff spot while Raimel Tapia moved to second in the batting order. He did not reward manager Bud Black for making that lineup switch […]

Joakim Soria Earns Second Save On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Joakim Soria earned his second save of the season on Wednesday, striking out two in a perfect inning of relief.

Dom Nunez Has A Three-Hit Day

Colorado Rockies catcher Dom Nunez went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two runs scored, an RBI, and a walk in a 9-3 win over the Diamondbacks on Thursday.

Daniel Vogelbach Hits On The Field Thursday

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Daniel Vogelbach (hamstring) hit on the field for the first time on Thursday since landing on the injured list.

Nestor Cortes To Start Friday Against Astros

New York Yankees pitcher Nestor Cortes will take the mound Friday against the Houston Astros. Cortes has largely pitched as a long reliever out of the bullpen but has been excellent in that role, pitching to a 1.29 ERA across 21 innings with a 29:8 strikeout-to-walk ratio. The southpaw will face a tough test on […]

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (head) was hit square in the head by a pitch from Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Riley Smith on Thursday.

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chi Chi Gonzalez earned the win on Thursday when he allowed three runs on six hits with one walk and five strikeouts over five innings in a 9-3 win over the D-Backs.

It was Escobar's 19th homer of the season, as he's now slashing .255/.300/.484 with 58 RBI and 43 runs scored over 84 games this season. In the […]
