Mike Soroka (Shoulder) Has Yet To Resume Throwing

Atlanta Braves right-hander Mike Soroka, who's currently on the injured list with shoulder discomfort, has yet to resume throwing, per manager Brian Snitker. Soroka started to experience some discomfort in his throwing shoulder while working at Atlanta's alternate site earlier this month. He was soon shut down and hasn't started throwing yet. Soroka began the […]

Chris Martin (Shoulder) Has Resumed Throwing

Atlanta Braves right-hander Chris Martin, who's on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation, has begun throwing, per beat writer David O'Brien. He's just playing catch at the moment and has not started mound work but it's a step in the right direction for the 34-year-old, who wasn't able to throw as early as […]

Manny Machado Getting A Day Off On Tuesday

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. This looks to be a regular day of rest for the 28-year-old. Fernando Tatis Jr. is also getting the day off vs. Corbin Burnes and the Brew Crew. Ha-Seong Kim is batting seventh and starting at […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. Is Absent From The Lineup On Tuesday

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. is absent from the team's lineup on Tuesday vs. the Milwaukee Brewers. This is most likely a routine day off for the superstar shortstop, who was activated from the 10-day injured list last Friday with a shoulder injury. Jake Cronenworth is starting at shortstop and batting third in […]

Clint Frazier Taking A Seat For First Game Of Series

New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier is taking a seat on the bench for the first game of the series against Atlanta. Frazier is enduring a brutal stretch to start the season, as he is 6-for-36 with no homers and a 14:4 strikeout-to-walk ratio. The decision to go with Brett Gardner, who is batting third, […]

Cavan Biggio (Hand) Returns To Lineup On Tuesday

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Cavan Biggio (hand) has returned to the lineup on Tuesday. He's starting in right field and batting sixth against left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez and the Boston Red Sox. Biggio was dealing with some hand discomfort late last week and missed a few games as a result. Biggio has really struggled to […]

Nelson Cruz Draws Excellent Matchup Tuesday

Minnesota Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz is riding a four-game hitting streak heading into an excellent matchup on Tuesday. Cruz will bat third against Athletics' left-hander Sean Manaea, who has struggled against him in his career. The 40-year-old slugger has logged 19 career at-bats against Manaea and is batting .368 with three home runs and […]

Byron Buxton Batting Fourth In First Game Of Doubleheader

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is batting fourth in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Athletics. Buxton was slated to make his return to the lineup on Saturday, though the game was postponed due to several positive COVID-19 tests in the Twins' clubhouse. After routinely batting at the bottom of the lineup in […]

Mike Tauchman, Mike Ford Enter Tuesday's Lineup

New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman and first baseman Mike Ford are in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta. Manager Aaron Boone opted to make some changes to the lineup in the hopes of boosting a struggling offense, inserting two lefty bats into the order. Both Tauchman and Ford, who was recently recalled from […]

Pirates-Tigers Game On Tuesday Is Postponed

The Pittsburgh Pirates-Detroit Tigers matchup for Tuesday has been postponed due to snow, according to Gerard Gilberto of DK Pittsburgh Sports. The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Wednesday, with Game 1 scheduled for a 2:10 pm start. Adjust your lineups for tonight and tomorrow accordingly.

Gary Sanchez Returns To Lineup Tuesday

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (finger) is back in the lineup for the opening contest of a two-game series against the Braves. Sanchez is dealing with bruises on his right index and middle fingers- though manager Aaron Boone had indicated that he would be available for Tuesday's game. The power-hitting backstop will bat seventh […]

Aaron Hicks Getting The Day Off Tuesday, Could Sit Again Wednesday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks is not in Tuesday's lineup for the contest against the Braves. At first glance, it seems like a routine day off, though manager Aaron Boone said that Hicks could remain out of the lineup on Wednesday to work on "mechanical adjustments." The 31-year-old outfielder is batting just .160- though […]

Alex Kirilloff Won't Be Recalled During Road Trip

Minnesota Twins outfielder Alex Kirilloff won't be recalled from the team's alternate site while the big club is on a road trip. Manager Rocco Baldelli didn't mention Kirilloff by name, though he indicated that the team didn't want players traveling from coast to coast during the pandemic. It's unfortunate timing for Kirilloff, as Twins' outfielders […]

Brent Rooker Reinstated From Injured List

Minnesota Twins outfielder/first baseman Brent Rooker (neck) was activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Rooker's return comes at a good time for the Twins, as they will be without outfielders Max Kepler (COVID-19) and Kyle Garlick (COVID-19) for at least the remainder of the week. The 26-year-old has been a bit disappointing at […]

Kyle Lewis Returns Tuesday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis is in the lineup batting second and playing center field Tuesday against Julio Urias and the Los Angeles Dodgers. It's been a more extended absence for Lewis than originally anticipated when he collided with the outfield wall in the last week of spring training. Now, 17 regular season games later, […]

Ty France Sits Out Tuesday

Seattle Mariners designated hitter Ty France (forearm) is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. This comes as no surprise after he was removed from the game in the sixth inning on Monday following a hit-by-pitch to his right forearm. The Mariners have the day off on Wednesday, but it is possible […]

Max Kepler, Kyle Garlick, Caleb Thielbar Placed On COVID-19 Injured List

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (COVID-19), outfielder Kyle Garlick (COVID-19), and relief pitcher Caleb Thielbar (COVID-19) have been placed on the COVID-19 injured list Tuesday. Garlick had tested positive for the virus, and it seems likely that Kepler and Thielbar also did- given the team's recent outbreak- so fantasy managers may be without them for […]

No Minutes Restriction For D'Angelo Russell

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell will continue to come off the bench but will play "upwards of 30 minutes." Seeing as Russell has yet to play 30 minutes in a game in April, fantasy managers should opt for a wait-and-see approach when it comes to the guard's playing time. Head coach Chris Finch did note […]

Lonzo Ball To Remain On Minutes Restriction Tuesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball will be on a minutes restriction once again on Tuesday. Ball did note that Tuesday will be the last game with a cap on his minutes, as he seems to be nearly fully recovered from a hip flexor strain. The former UCLA guard has played 20 and 27 minutes […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Questionable For Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's contest versus the Pistons. Hardaway Jr. is dealing with a non-COVID-related illness- though it wouldn't be surprising to see him sit out Wednesday's contest with the second half of a back-to-back coming up on Thursday. If Hardaway Jr. is indeed out, expect Dorian Finney-Smith […]

Kevin Durant To Miss Tuesday's Game

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (thigh) will miss Tuesday's game against the Pelicans. Durant suffered a bruised thigh during Sunday's game and had to leave the contest early after playing just eight minutes. It's not surprising that the Nets opted to sit Durant, given that James Harden (hamstring) is also banged up. The onus will […]

Rui Hachimura Unable To Practice Tuesday

Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura (knee) was unable to practice on Tuesday. Hachimura's inability to take the practice court doesn't bode well for his chances of suiting up for Wednesday's game against the Warriors. As of now, he should be considered doubtful for the contest. Fellow forward Davis Bertans benefitted from Hachimura's absence on Monday, […]

James Harden Ruled Out Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden (hamstring) remains out on Tuesday. Harden seems to be nearing a return, as he has ramped up his activity- as well as traveled with the team on their current road trip. It seems likely that he'll be able to rejoin the starting five at some point this week. In his […]

Lewis Brinson Expected To Be Called Up

Miami Marlins outfielder Lewis Brinson is expected to be called up from the alternate site before Tuesday's game. With Starling Marte (rib) heading to the injured list, the Marlins need another outfielder up, and Brinson appears to be the choice. He and Magneuris Sierra will likely split time in center field, although Jon Berti is […]

Twins And A's Set For Doubleheader After COVID Postponement

The Minnesota Twins and Oakland Athletics were given the green light to play their series after Monday's game was postponed due to positive COVID tests within the Twins organization. The teams will play two games on Tuesday, both seven innings in length, before wrapping up the series on Wednesday afternoon. Fantasy managers should feel confident […]

Alex Smith Retires

Former Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith has retired from the NFL. Smith, the former No. 1 overall pick for the 49ers, spent 16 seasons in the NFL. The most notable part of his WFT tenure was a devastating leg injury in 2018 that put Smith's NFL future -- and his life, at one point […]

Washington Waives Bryce Love

The Washington Football Team has waived running back Bryce Love. Love's NFL career has gotten off to a rocky start following an ACL tear in college, as he's yet to see any game action in the NFL through two seasons. There's some clear talent here with Love if he's able to come back healthy, but […]

Wayne Gallman Visits 49ers

Free agent running back Wayne Gallman visited the San Francisco 49ers on Monday. Last year, Gallman had 147 carries for the Giants, with 682 rushing yards and six touchdowns. But Gallman's role only existed because of a Saquon Barkley injury, and the free-agent market has been slow for veteran backs like Gallman. San Francisco seems […]
