Andrew Heaney To Start Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels starter Andrew Heaney will take the mound Tuesday to open up a series against the Rangers at Angel Stadium.

But the big left-handed starter […]

Dylan Bundy's Value Capsizing

Los Angeles Angels starter Dylan Bundy is still looking for his first win of the season heading into his start scheduled for this weekend.

Dylan Floro Saves His First Game

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Dylan Floro earned the first save of his career in Monday's 9-6 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.

Michael Chavis Optioned To Triple-A

Boston Red Sox second baseman Michael Chavis has been optioned to Triple-A Worcester. It seems this move will correspond with Christian Arroyo's return from the injured list. Chavis has performed decently well in limited time this season, with a .273/.273/.485 slash line through 33 at-bats, but there's no need to hold him on fantasy rosters.
