Paul George, Reggie Jackson Out On Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Reggie Jackson (rest) and forward Paul George (rest) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It appears the Clippers are going to give most of their starters the night off in the second game of the back-to-back set. Luke Kennard, Marcus Morris, and Terance Mann should all […]

Justin Upton Leaves Game With Cramps

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton (cramps) was removed from Wednesday's game in the ninth inning. Upton was looked at by the team trainer, who determined that he was experiencing cramps. The veteran outfielder was replaced in the game by Jose Rojas. It doesn't appear to be anything that will cause Upton to miss game […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Sitting Out On Wednesday

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He will be sidelined here due to the league's health and safety protocols. The loss of Porter will be significant to the Rockets rotation. John Wall and Jae'sean Tate will be asked to pick up the slack offensively. […]

Terrence Ross, James Ennis III Questionable Thursday

Orlando Magic guards Terrence Ross (back) and James Ennis III (calf) are listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Both players have been dealing with minor injuries lately and the team isn't in a rush to bring either of them back to the court. R.J. Hampton and Gary Harris should see […]

Richaun Holmes Remains Sidelined On Wednesday

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This marks the fifth straight game that Holmes has been sidelined due to injury. It's uncertain when he'll get back on the court since the Kings have not given much of a timetable. Hassan Whiteside has become a […]

Donovan Solano Likely Headed For Injured List

San Francisco Giants second baseman Donovan Solano (calf) is expected to be placed on the injured list. Solano strained his right calf while running from second to third base during the sixth inning of Wednesday's game. The 2020 Silver Slugger award winner will be forced to miss time, presumably the 10-day injured list, meaning second […]

Tyler Herro Will Play Versus Spurs

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) will be available for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He missed Monday's contest due to right foot soreness. However, it sounds like he'll be ready for this one and shouldn't be limited. Herro's return will cut into the playing time for Goran Dragic and Kendrick Nunn.

Dinelson Lamet Exits First Start With Forearm Tightness

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Dinelson Lamet (forearm) had to leave his start on Wednesday after just 29 pitches. Lamet, who had just returned from the injured list, was making his season debut but had to leave the game in the bottom of the second inning to be examined by the trainer. The team announced […]

Randy Arozarena, Manuel Margot, Mike Zunino Sitting Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena, outfielder Manuel Margot, and catcher Mike Zunino are all taking a seat on Wednesday. All three players are getting routine days off. Kevin Kiermaier will get the start in center, with Brett Phillips in right field. Francisco Mejia will be behind the plate.

Mickey Moniak Launches First Career Homer Wednesday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Mickey Moniak went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer for his first career round-tripper. Moniak displayed impressive opposite-field power, blasting an Anthony DeSclafani offering into the left-field seats. Moniak isn't a fantasy option in redraft leagues at the moment as Philadelphia called up Scott Kingery from the alternate site and will surely give […]

Austin Gomber Earns First Win Of The Year

Colorado Rockies left-hander Austin Gomber earned his first win of the season on Wednesday when he allowed two runs on two hits with a pair of walks and six strikeouts over six innings in a 6-3 win over the Astros. He limited the Houston offense to just two hits but one of them was a […]

Brad Miller Has Four-Hits With Two Runs Wednesday

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Brad Miller went 4-for-5 with two runs scored in his first start since Jean Segura (quad) landed on the injured list. Miller certainly made his case to continue starting at the keystone despite the fact Philadelphia called up super-utilityman Scott Kingery from the alternate site. Kingery is a former top-prospect who […]

Andrew McCutchen Reaches Twice, Steals Base Versus Giants

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Andrew McCutchen went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in a win over the Giants on Wednesday. McCutchen also struck out twice which has been a bit of an issue for him in the early going and helps explain his anemic .164 batting average. The good news is McCutchen is […]

Zach Eflin Overcomes Rain Delay To Post Strong Start

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zach Eflin pitched six innings of one-run ball with three strikeouts despite having his start interrupted by rain in the third inning. Eflin was visibly displeased at the timing of the delay, but bounced back to complete four more innings, needing only 86 pitches on the afternoon. The Phillies' bullpen couldn't […]

Hector Neris Earns Relief Win Versus Giants

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Hector Neris pitched a clean ninth inning and earned the win thanks to a walk-off hit by Andrew Knapp in the bottom of the inning. Neris struck out two and didn't allow a baserunner. The 31-year-old righty is off to a strong start this season with a 1.23 ERA and a […]

Jason Robertson Continues To Star For Dallas

Dallas Stars forward Jason Robertson collected his 14th goal of the campaign and added a primary assist as his team defeated the Detroit Red Wings 5-2 at the American Airlines Center on Tuesday. The 21-year-old's multi-point effort extended his personal point-streak to five games (three goals, five assists over the span). Robertson continues to build […]

Sam Bennett Shines Again On Tuesday

Florida Panthers forward Sam Bennett buried a pair of goals as his team logged a 5-1 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday. The 24-year-old, who was acquired via trade from Calgary at the trade deadline, also recorded the game-winning goal, a plus-three rating, four shots and six hits in 19:03 of ice time […]

Brian Anderson Has A Side Issue

Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson is dealing with a side issue that kept him out of Wednesday's lineup. Manager Don Mattingly did not specify any further, so it's unclear if Anderson's injury is an oblique issue or something more minor. He did not sound overly concerned however, and the Marlins are not expected to […]

Garrett Cooper Dealing With A Groin Injury

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper is dealing with a minor groin injury, according to manager Don Mattingly. It explains why Cooper hasn't been mixed into the starting lineup in a few days. Cooper is off to a somewhat slow start, batting just .205/.300/.318 while splitting time at first base and the corner outfield spots. […]

Spencer Knight Records First NHL Victory

Florida Panthers goaltender Spencer Knight registered his first NHL victory in his first career start in Tuesday's 5-1 defeat of the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets. The 19-year-old, who just signed an entry-level contract with the Panthers last month following his sophomore season at Boston College, stopped 33 of 34 shots against in the contest. One […]

Adbert Alzolay Scheduled To Start Saturday

Chicago Cubs manager David Ross said on Wednesday that starting pitcher Adbert Alzolay is scheduled to start on Saturday versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Alzolay pitched well in his last start versus the Brewers, but the Cubs bullpen came in and hurt his stat line. Alzolay was then sent down to the teams alternative training site. […]

Nino Niederreiter Tallies Two Points On Tuesday

Carolina Hurricanes forward Nino Niederreiter registered a goal and added a primary assist as his team picked up a 4-1 road victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Tuesday night. In addition to his pair of points, the 28-year-old recorded two shots on goal, a plus-two rating and two hits in 15:18 of ice time […]

Julian Merryweather Likely Out Longer

The Toronto Blue Jays are still waiting for more information on relief pitcher Julian Merryweather's left oblique strain, and his injury is expected to keep him out of action beyond his 10-day injured list stint. Merryweather is eligible to come off the injured list on Saturday, April 24, but it doesn't look as though that'll […]

Jesus Aguilar Drives In Two Runs On Wednesday

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar had a productive day in Wednesday's win over the Baltimore Orioles, going 1-for-3 with a double and two RBI. He also scored a run of his own and drew a walk. Aguilar's power has yet to show up as he hasn't hit a home run yet this season, but […]

Domingo German Listed As Thursday's Starter

New York Yankees starting pitcher Domingo German is slated to take the mound on Thursday against Cleveland. The Yankees sent German down to their alternate site, presumably to work on some things after having a rough outing in his first start- two home runs and three earned runs allowed. The 28-year-old reportedly pitched well in […]

Yimi Garcia Saves Wednesday's Game

Miami Marlins closer Yimi Garcia earned a save, his fourth of the season, in Wednesday's win over the Baltimore Orioles. Garcia was called upon for one of the easier saves of the season, coming into the ninth inning of a 3-0 game. He made it look even easier than that though, tossing just 10 pitches […]

Anthony Rendon Could Return This Weekend

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (groin) has been sidelined since April 10 due to a left groin strain. However, he is progressing well. On Wednesday, Angels manager Joe Maddon said that he wouldn't rule out the possibility of Rendon returning this weekend against the Houston Astros. It seems just as likely, if not […]

Trevor Rogers Blanks The Orioles On Wednesday

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Trevor Rogers was excellent on Wednesday, keeping the Orioles off the board for seven innings. He allowed just four hits and a walk while striking out eight. Rogers only threw 82 pitches (60 strikes), but he was wisely removed after the seventh inning and the Marlins bullpen held on to […]
