Will Smith Has Big Game In Loss

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith put together a nice all-around performance in Sunday's loss versus the Colorado Rockies.

Josh Harrison Posts Three-Hit Game Sunday

Washington Nationals utility man Josh Harrison had three hits Sunday, going 3-for-5 with two doubles, a run, and an RBI. It's his second game in the row with three hits. Harrison is in position to bat in the middle of the lineup every day for the Nats, playing all over the diamond. He has a […]

Justin Turner Hits 16th Home Run

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner went 2-for-5 with a double and two-run home run in Sunday's loss versus the Colorado Rockies.

Juan Soto Homers Again Sunday

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto was outstanding yet again Sunday, going 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, two RBI, and two runs scored against the San Diego Padres.

Trey Amburgey Suffers Leg Injury On Sunday

New York Yankees outfielder Trey Amburgey (leg) exited Sunday's outing against the visiting Red Sox. The 26-year-old appeared to injure his hamstring while attempting to reach first base during a double play.

Alcides Escobar Hits First Homer Of Season

Washington Nationals infielder Alcides Escobar hit his first home run of the season Sunday off of Emilio Pagan, going 2-for-5 with a walk and two RBI against the San Diego Padres.

Kenley Jansen Blows Third Save

Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen blew his third save of the season on Sunday versus the Colorado Rockies. Jansen allowed two hits, one run, zero walks and failed to record a strikeout in his one inning of work. Jansen's run would tie the game 4-4 and send it to extra innings. Despite the blown […]

Brad Hand Blows Save, Earns Cheap Win Sunday

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Brad Hand couldn't find the strike zone Sunday against the San Diego Padres, allowing one run on a hit and three walks en route to a blown save.

Max Scherzer Allows Four Runs Across Seven Innings Sunday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Max Scherzer lasted seven innings against the San Diego Padres Sunday, allowing four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out eight batters. He took a no-decision. It's a strong bounce-back for the all-star, who allowed seven runs in 3 2/3 innings his last outing before the break. Scherzer […]

Christian Arroyo Injured On Sunday Night

Boston Red Sox infielder Christian Arroyo (hamstring) exited the Sunday Night Baseball matchup against the Yankees. Arroyo suffered a hamstring strain while stretching to make a grab, an unfortunate development considering he was making his first career start at first base. The 26-year-old has been on a roll since returning from the 10-day injured list […]

Christian Arroyo Exits With Injury

Boston Red Sox utility man Christian Arroyo exited Sunday night's game against the Yankees with what appeared to be a groin stretch after attempting to make a play in his first start at first base.

Sonny Gray Strikes Out Six In Return From IL

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Sonny Gray allowed five runs over 4 2/3 innings in an 8-0 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday.

Isiah Kiner-Falefa Doubles In Blowout Loss

Texas Rangers infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa was one of the few bright spots for this offense on Sunday. He went 1-for-3 with a double off lefty Steven Matz during the 10-0 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. This game was over in the second inning and the Rangers didn't put up much of a fight. Kiner-Falefa […]

Mike Foltynewicz Has Laughable Outing

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Mike Foltynewicz had possibly one of the worst outings by any pitcher this season. On Sunday, Foltynewicz allowed 10 earned runs, eight hits, two walks, and zero strikeouts through 1 2/3 innings. During that time span, Foltynewicz allowed four home runs to the Blue Jays. Fantasy managers are certainly wishing they […]

Chris Bassitt Pitches Well Despite Loss To Cleveland

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Chris Bassitt allowed three runs across seven innings pitched, but took the loss on Sunday against the Indians. Bassitt scattered six hits and didn't walk a batter while racking up eight strikeouts. The right-hander completed seven innings for the fourth time in his last five starts as he's been outstanding for […]

Atlanta Braves outfielder Joc Pederson has brought a spark with him to his new organization.

Pederson has four hits over his first three games with […]

Stephen Vogt Records Three Hits In Team Debut

Atlanta Braves catcher Stephen Vogt looked solid at the plate during Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. He went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a pair of runs scored during the 7-5 defeat. The 36-year-old veteran should get plenty of chances until Travis d'Arnaud (thumb) returns at some point. The hope is that the […]

Zack Wheeler Whiffs Seven Marlins In Win

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler allowed four runs across six innings with seven strikeouts while earning his seventh win of the season on Sunday. All of the damage versus Wheeler came in the third inning which soured his pitching line somewhat, however; Wheeler had another strong start throwing 68 of 101 pitches for strikes […]

Paul DeJong Stays Hot With A Sunday Home Run

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong kept his hot streak going with a home run in Sunday's game against the San Francisco Giants. DeJong went 1-for-3 with the solo shot, scoring one run and driving himself in for one RBI. The Cardinals shortstop has been on a tear lately, slashing a ludicrous .455/.478/.909 over his […]

Alex Reyes Picks Up Another Save On Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals closer Alex Reyes picked up his 22nd save of the season on Sunday in a 2-1 win over the San Francisco Giants.

J.A. Happ Surrenders Seven Runs In Loss

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher J.A. Happ struggled once again in Sunday's loss to the Detroit Tigers. Happ gave the Twins some solid length in the outing, but he was certainly not effective by any means, allowing seven earned runs on a season-high 11 hits. The lefty walked one and struck out four batters. Per Aaron […]

Anthony Bender Takes His First Loss On Sunday

Miami Marlins rookie relief pitcher Anthony Bender took the first loss of his major league career in Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Miami Marlins outfielder Adam Duvall hit his 20th home run of the season in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Hunter Dozier Goes 4-For-4 In Loss To Orioles

Kansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier had a strong game at the plate in Sunday's 7-0 loss to the Baltimore Orioles. Dozier went 4-for-4 with two singles and two doubles. The rest of the Royals only had a total of two hits in the game. Dozier has had a nightmare of a year. He's […]

Zach Thompson Throws Four Decent Innings On Saturday
