Logan Allen Struggles Again Friday Night

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Logan Allen gave up four earned runs on five hits and one walk across just 2 1/3 innings pitched in Friday night's 5-3 loss to the New York Yankees.

J.A. Happ Flirts With No-Hitter In Win Over Pirates

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher J.A. Happ was excellent in Friday's 2-0 win over the Pirates. Happ pitched 7 1/3 scoreless frames and didn't allow a hit until the eighth inning, striking out three with a pair of walks.

Sam Huff To Miss A Few Months

Texas Rangers catcher Sam Huff (knee) is expected to be out at least eight weeks. The prospect will be on the shelf to have surgery to remove a loose body, an injury he sustained after hurting his right knee while rehabbing from a hamstring strain. While the 23-year-old may be back behind the dish at […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Leads Team In Scoring Friday Night

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic took over the top scorer's role on Friday with Trae Young (ankle) out, notching 21 points on 7-for-13 shooting in a win over Miami.

Brett Anderson Leaves Friday’s Matchup Against Cubs

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brett Anderson (hamstring) departed Friday's matchup against Chicago. After facing only one batter, the lefty was yanked due to what was initially classified as knee discomfort. However, he will have an MRI performed on his right hamstring, an ailment that could keep him on the shelf for quite some time moving […]

Brad Miller Held Out On Friday Evening

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Brad Miller (neck) wasn't in the lineup against the Rockies. The 31-year-old is considered day-to-day while dealing with neck stiffness and was replaced by Nick Maton on Friday night. Miller has been on a roll during his sporadic appearances this year, batting .368 and racking up seven hits, three RBI, and […]

Evan Longoria Won’t Play Against Miami

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) will not play against the visiting Marlins. The veteran was removed from Thursday's contest against Miami, and although it wasn't abundantly clear what the reason was at the time, the 35-year-old was scratched due to left hamstring tightness. Longoria should be considered day-to-day, although it wouldn't be […]

Jonas Valanciunas Nearing Return

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (concussion) is reportedly nearing a return to the court, according to head coach Taylor Jenkins. He is working his way through the league's concussion protocol at the moment. Jenkins is hopeful that Valanciunas is able to suit up for Sunday's contest. In the meantime, Xavier Tillman and Jaren Jackson Jr. […]

Richaun Holmes Could Return Soon

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (hamstring) was able to fully participate in Friday's practice. There is a chance that Holmes is able to play during Sunday's game against the Golden State Warriors. His return would make Hassan Whiteside a cut-candidate in many fantasy formats. However, it's unknown if Holmes will play on Sunday or if […]

Goga Bitadze Able To Shoot On Friday

Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (ankle) was able to get some shots up during Friday's practice. It sounds like the ankle is getting better, but Bitadze is likely going to be sidelined for a few more games. The Pacers are fairly banged up right now, so Oshae Brissett is expected to take on significant playing […]

Ronald Guzman Officially Done For The Season

Texas Rangers first baseman Ronald Guzman (knee) will miss the remainder of the season. The 26-year-old suffered a meniscus tear in his right knee back on April 12 against Tampa Bay, initially landing him on the 10-day injured list. However, with surgery now the most logical option, he may have played his last game with […]

DeMar DeRozan Could Sit On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs forward DeMar DeRozan (quad) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He sat out of Thursday's game for rest purposes. It's quite odd that somehow DeRozan injured his quad by sitting out. Regardless, Derrick White, Devin Vassell, and Lonnie Walker IV will see a boost, assuming DeRozan […]

Rudy Gay Might Sit Versus Pelicans

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This is likely a rest game more than anything, but the team is pretending it's a back issue. Luka Samanic and Keita Bates-Diop would be asked to pick up the slack, assuming Gay is out. However, […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Could Miss Saturday's Game

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He tweaked his ankle during Thursday's game, so there is some concern that it'll swell up overnight. Fantasy managers will likely have to wait until shootaround on Saturday before getting more information. Talen Horton-Tucker could be asked […]

Mike Trout Not In The Lineup On Friday Night

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (elbow) will not play on Friday against Houston. The former MVP was nailed by a Cristian Javier slider on Thursday night and was removed from the game prematurely as a result. Luckily, Trout stated that the pitch made contact mostly on his protective elbow pad, so fantasy managers can […]

Domantas Sabonis Won't Play Saturday

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This marks the third game in a row that Sabonis has missed due to a back issue. The Pacers are heavily banged up, which means Oshae Brissett could see significant playing time in this one. He'd be a […]

Zach McKinstry Headed To 10-Day IL

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Zach McKinstry (back) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. The 25-year-old was scratched from Thursday night's game against the Padres due to back tightness and was subsequently replaced by Luke Raley out in right field. McKinstry is in the midst of an efficient 2021 campaign, so fantasy managers will […]

Mychal Mulder Will Start On Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Mychal Mulder will draw the start in Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He'll move into the starting five in place of veteran Kent Bazemore who is out due to the league's health and safety protocols. Kelly Oubre Jr. will continue coming off the bench in this one. Mulder could hit […]

Jaylen Brown Could Have Played Friday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (shoulder) could've played during Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets, according to head coach Brad Stevens. The team is considering Brown day-to-day since he doesn't have full range of motion yet. It's uncertain if he'll suit up for Sunday's contest or not. Jayson Tatum will continue having a ton of […]
