Trevor Story Could Be Activated By Thursday

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story (elbow) could be activated for Thursday's matchup against Miami, according to skipper Bud Black. The veteran was expected back on Tuesday or Wednesday, so fantasy managers should take Black's recent prediction with a grain of salt. Story has been out since the end of May because of right elbow inflammation, […]

Deiveson Figueiredo Set To Defend His Title Yet Again

After defending his title with a draw as the UFC flyweight champion, Deiveson Figueiredo (20-1-1) will defend that title against the same man, Brandon Moreno, at UFC 263 in the co-main-event slot on Saturday. Figueiredo suffered a one-point deduction in the third round for a low blow, resulting in the draw on the scorecards. With […]

Sean Manaea Fires Six Shutout Innings Wednesday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Sean Manaea pitched another strong game on Wednesday afternoon, blanking the Diamondbacks for six frames while picking up his fifth win of the season. Manaea only allowed two hits and gave up two walks while picking up three strikeouts. The right-hander was hit hard in a start on May 18 but […]

Tyler Naquin Should Be Back Soon

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (hamstring) isn't expected to need an IL stint. The veteran injured his left hamstring during Sunday's outing against the Cardinals, and he hasn't been back in the lineup since. However, skipper David Bell didn't seem too overly concerned, so it appears as if Naquin could be back at some point […]

Nate Diaz Back In The Octagon Against Tough Opponent

Long before his epic dual showdowns with Conor McGregor, Nate Diaz (20-12) has been competing under the UFC banner. He first competed for the UFC back at TUF Season 5, taking place in early 2007. Recently, Diaz last appeared in the Octagon in November of 2019 but suffered a TKO loss due to a doctor's […]

Patrick Rodgers Looks To Avoid Three Straight Missed Cuts

Patrick Rodgers has missed back-to-back cuts and will look to rebound this week at Palmetto. He is a long hitter, ranking 30th in driving distance. However, his approach shots have been the downfall of his game this season. Rodgers ranks 200th in strokes gained approaching the green. Rodgers has also struggled saving par when he […]

Rory Sabbatini A Poor Play At Palmetto

Rory Sabbatini has just one top-10 finish and has missed seven cuts in 20 starts this season. He has not finished inside the top-20 since January, and things will not get easier for him at Congaree. It is a long course and he ranks 176th in driving distance. Sabbatini also does not hit enough greens […]

Belal Muhammad Hoping For A Win After March's No Contest

Prior to the no contest in his last outing, the tough and grinding Belal Muhammad (18-3) had won four fights in a row and looked to be on a hot streak in the welterweight division. A nasty eye poke in the second round of his contest with Leon Edwards led to the no-contest stoppage back […]

Demian Maia Set For Another Main-Card Showdown

The UFC's second all-time submission leader, Demian Maia (28-10), is set to enter the cage for his 39th professional bout on UFC 263's main card this Saturday.

Doc Redman Not A Great Play At Congaree

Doc Redman has been inconsistent this season, and this week will be his debut at Congaree. He has a few top-10 finishes but has also missed eight cuts in 20 starts. Redman is average off the tee, so he will not gain any sort of advantage with distance. He also ranks 191st in strokes gained […]

Taylor Widener Making Progress

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Taylor Widener (groin) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session soon. Widener has recently been throwing from 90-feet, a positive sign after he has spent multiple trips on the injured list due to a right groin strain. Widener has played sparingly this season but still has fantasy value in deeper leagues […]

Travis Shaw Leaves With What Appears To Be Serious Arm Injury

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Travis Shaw (arm) was removed from Wednesday's game against the Reds, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Shaw was down for an extended time after diving for a ball at third base. A cart was brought out, but Shaw managed to walk off the field, albeit with an air […]

Zac Gallen Scheduled For Another Bullpen Session

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Zac Gallen (elbow) went through a simulated game on Monday, throwing 32 pitches, and is scheduled to participate in another bullpen session by Thursday. Gallen suffered a sprained elbow back on May 7 and has remained on the injured list ever since. The 25-year-old currently holds a 1-0 record and a 2.63 […]

Ian Poulter To Rely On Short Game At Palmetto

Ian Poulter will look to ride momentum from his T3 finish at Charles Schwab a couple weeks ago into Palmetto. Poulter has put together a decent season thus far with five top-25 finishes in 15 starts. Congaree is a long course, so Poulter's lack of distance off the tee could certainly put him at a […]

Sammy Long Shines In His Major League Debut

San Francisco Giants pitcher Sammy Long impressed on Wednesday in his first Major League start. The rookie hurler struck out seven of the first ten Rangers batters faced. Long struck out a total of seven Texas hitters through four frames, and he only allowed one hit and one run. It will be interesting to watch […]

C.T. Pan A Risky Play At Palmetto

C.T. Pan will be a risky play this week at Palmetto. He has shown that he can play solid golf with five top-25 finishes, but he has also missed nine cuts in 21 starts. Pan is a decent iron player, but he does not give himself a big advantage with any area of his game. […]

Alejandro Kirk Took At-Bats In Extended Spring Training

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk registered some at-bats in an extended spring training game. Kirk is not eligible to be activated for three weeks from the 60-day injured list. The Blue Jays catcher recorded a .225 batting average with three home runs and eight RBI through 40 at-bats before being injured on May 2nd. […]

Jed Lowrie Compiles Three Hits On Wednesday

Oakland A's second baseman Jed Lowrie helped his team shut out the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday. Lowrie went 3-for-4 with three singles and an RBI. Lowrie has lacked offensive production for Oakland in 2021. Despite struggling at the plate, he does have four home runs and 29 RBI. The veteran second baseman is rostered in […]

Henrik Norlander Set For Debut At Congaree

Henrik Norlander will make his debut at Congaree this week, and he has been incredibly inconsistent so far this season. Norlander has made just 10 cuts in 23 starts. He is fairly accurate off the tee and is a solid iron player but struggles a bit on and around the greens. Norlander ranks 169th in […]

Matthew Peacock Registers A Loss On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Matthew Peacock picked up a loss on Wednesday as Oakland defeated his team 4-0. Peacock gave up three runs in just 1 2/3 innings. It was Peacock's shortest outing of the season. He has struggled in his last two starts. Hopefully, the rookie right-hander can recover from his previous two outings as […]

Clint Frazier Absent From Wednesday's Lineup

New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier is absent from Wednesday's lineup for the contest against the Minnesota Twins. Frazier has ceded the left-field duties to Miguel Andujar for the second straight game, as the latter is swinging a hotter bat lately. Andujar will bat seventh against Twins' right-hander Randy Dobnak.

Gary Sanchez Getting The Day Off Wednesday

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Sanchez will head to the bench with Gerrit Cole on the mound, despite hitting .292 with a home run and a .544 slugging percentage in six June games so far. Kyle Higashioka will be behind the plate […]

Luis Arraez Taking Batting Practice Wednesday

Minnesota Twins utility Luis Arraez (shoulder) is taking batting practice on the field Wednesday ahead of his team's contest against the New York Yankees. Arraez has been sidelined for about two weeks with a partially dislocated right shoulder, which he said gave him a lot of pain when he attempted to play through it, particularly […]

Dillon Thomas Starting For The First Time Wednesday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Dillon Thomas will make his first career start Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers, having been called up from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday. With Kyle Lewis out for an undetermined time, and Jarred Kelenic in the minors, Thomas has an opportunity to earn regular playing time in the short term. He was tearing […]

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (hip) said he's feeling "100 percent" healthy following his first rehab game Tuesday night.
