David Dahl Facing Reduction In Playing Time

Texas Rangers outfielder David Dahl could see his playing time reduced moving forward, according to Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News.

The Detroit Pistons will again be staggeringly short-handed for Sunday's contest versus Chicago with shooting guard Josh Jackson (tooth), small forward Hamidou Diallo (health protocols) and shooting guard/small forward Wayne Ellington (calves) all ruled out.

Sacramento Lists Buddy Hield As Questionable Sunday

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Buddy Hield (ankle) has picked up a questionable tag for Sunday's game versus the Thunder due to a sprained left ankle.

Detroit Pistons power forward Jerami Grant (knee) has been tagged as questionable to suit up for Sunday's game versus Chicago as he continues to battle right knee soreness.

Harrison Barnes Unlikely To Suit Up Sunday

Sacramento Kings small/power forward Harrison Barnes (adductor) has been listed as doubtful to participate in Sunday's contest against the Thunder. Barnes has already missed each of the Kings' past six games, paving the way for Maurice Harkless and Terence Davis to see added minutes on the wing.

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies went 1-for-5 with a triple, a walk and a run scored in an 8-7 win over the Phillies.

Wendell Carter Jr. Will Miss Sunday’s Contest

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (eye) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus Minnesota due to a left eye abrasion.

Max Scherzer Strikes Out 14 On Saturday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Max Scherzer dominated the Yankees lineup on Saturday, striking out 14 in 7 1/3 innings of work in a 4-3 extra-innings loss.

Mats Zuccarello Adds Two Points for Minnesota On Saturday

Minnesota Wild veteran forward Mats Zuccarello created two assists on Saturday. The Wild beat Anaheim 4-3 in overtime. Zuccarello registered six points in his last five contests.

Ty France Sits on Sunday

Seattle Mariners designated hitter Ty France is out of the lineup on Sunday. France has been struggling mightily of late, with a dismal .215 OPS over the past seven days, and he hasn't homered since April 18. Hopefully, this time off will get France back on track. France should be on fantasy benches until he […]
