Bobby Dalbec Strikes Out Four Times Tuesday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec struck out four times in five at-bats Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Dalbec had been hot of late, with a 1.009 OPS over the last seven games even after his forgettable day. Despite the recent success, it's still strikeouts that will cause Dalbec's fans and fantasy managers […]

Shed Long Jr. Blasts A Homer Tuesday

Seattle Mariners second baseman Shed Long Jr. connected on a solo shot to help his club defeat the Rockies 2-1 on Tuesday. The utility man has cracked two home runs in two games.

Xander Bogaerts Scores Twice, Steals A Base

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts reached base three times Tuesday, going 3-for-5 with three singles, two runs scored, and a stolen base. The steal was his fifth of the season.

Austin Hays Goes Hitless Tuesday, Slump Continues

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays continued his slump in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Astros, going 0-for-4. It was Hays' third straight game without a hit, bringing his season batting average down to a meager .219. The 25-year-old had a productive 2019 and 2020 seasons, but has struggled mightily in 2021. He held fantasy promise […]

Lopez pitched 6 1/3 innings, allowing two runs on five hits (including a solo home run) and two walks with six strikeouts.

Erik Van Rooyen A Risky Play At TPC River Highlands

Fantasy managers should proceed with caution when considering Erik Van Rooyen this week. The big-hitting South African has missed five of his last six cuts. He is coming off a week at the U.S. Open where he lost strokes in all major categories except putting. All of Van Rooyen's best performances this season, such as […]

Dwight Smith Jr. Released By Reds

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Dwight Smith Jr. has been released by the organization. Smith was slashing .220/.327/.283 in 36 games in Triple-A this season. The organization signed Mallex Smith to a minor league deal, so this was likely the corresponding move. The 28-year-old was best known for his role on the Baltimore Orioles in 2019. He […]

Mallex Smith Signs Minor League Deal With Reds

The Cincinnati Reds have signed outfielder Mallex Smith to a minor league deal. The 28-year-old speedster signed a deal with the Mets over the winter, but was released in late May. Smith was recovering from a broken foot, but it appears he is healthy now. Smith is a career .255/.325/.361 hitter over his time in […]

Evan Longoria Could Resume Swinging Soon

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) could begin swinging a bat again soon. It has already been two weeks into Longoria's projected six-to-eight week timetable. He continues to work his way back from a left shoulder strain. The hope is that Longo will be ready shortly after the All-Star break. He was playing […]

Cameron Smith Worth A Shot At TPC River Highlands

Due to poor course history and shoddy recent form, Cameron Smith is not a player that most fantasy managers will instantly gravitate to this week. With that being said, it's worth noting that Smith missed the cut at the U.S. Open on the number while losing six strokes around the green. That is certainly an […]

Phillies Sign Jake Elmore

The Philadelphia Phillies have signed infielder Jake Elmore to a minor league deal. He has not appeared in an MLB game since 2019. During that season, Elmore batted .213/.245/.234 in 20 games. Elmore has never hit well during his time in the majors and that's unlikely going to change. This is mostly a depth signing […]

Tyler Anderson Records Quality Start On Tuesday

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Tyler Anderson allowed three runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four over 6 2/3 innings of work in a 6-3 win over the White Sox on Tuesday night. It was his fifth quality start in 14 appearances this season, as he's now 3-7 with a 4.82 ERA […]

Brooks Koepka Is Worth The Gamble

There seems to be a prevailing narrative that Brooks Koepka only cares about majors. While that may be true, even an apathetic Koepka is still one of the best players in the world. He possesses a win and a runner-up finish in two of his last six non-major starts. Regardless of motivation, the four-time major […]

Daniel Vogelbach Injures Leg Running Bases

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Daniel Vogelbach (leg) appeared to injure his leg while scoring on a two-run single in the sixth inning, according to Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Rhys Hoskins Blasts 16th Homer Of Season

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins went 2-for-5 with a solo homer in a loss to the Nationals on Tuesday. Hoskins pulled the Phillies within one run with an eighth-inning homer off of Tanner Rainey, but he couldn't play the hero in the ninth as he grounded out to shortstop with the bases loaded to […]

Justin Upton Dealing With Lower Back Tightness

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton (back) exited Tuesday night's game due to lower back tightness, the team announced on Twitter. Upton had struck out swinging in his final at bat to end the second inning, and he was then replaced defensively in the top of the third inning by Juan Lagares. He's been having […]

Zack Wheeler Labors Versus Nats In Shortest Start Of Season

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler allowed three runs in three innings pitched in his shortest start of 2021. Wheeler allowed six hits and a walk as he needed a whopping 73 pitches to complete three frames while taking his fourth loss of the season. Wheeler had been on an impressive run of late having […]

Tylor Megill To Start For Mets On Wednesday

New York Mets starting pitcher Tylor Megill will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse and make his first Major League start on Wednesday against the Braves, according to Justin Toscano of NorthJersey.com.
