Draymond Green In Danger Of Sitting On Sunday

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (finger) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Atlanta. The veteran was a last-minute scratch on Friday night due to a sprained finger on his left hand, opening the door for Juan Toscano-Anderson to get the starting nod. With Eric Paschall (hip) out against the Hawks, Toscano-Anderson could be in […]

Byron Buxton Homers For Second Consecutive Game

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton went 1-for-4 with a home run and a strikeout in Saturday's 2-0 win over Milwaukee. Buxton belted his second home run in as many games, another Statcast darling of a blast, which traveled 411 feet at an exit velocity of 105.3 MPH. Both of the 27-year-old's home runs this season […]

Danilo Gallinari Questionable Against Warriors

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (Achilles) is questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against Golden State. The veteran is currently dealing with soreness in his right Achilles, an injury that caused him to sit out on Friday against New Orleans. With John Collins (ankle) out and Trae Young (knee) also questionable, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Kevin Huerter, and […]

Alex Colome Records First Save Of Season

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Alex Colome closed out his team's first win of the 2021 season in a 2-0 victory over the Brewers. Manager Rocco Baldelli went back to Colome in the ninth after the latter blew the save on Opening Day- and Colome rewarded his manager's faith with a scoreless inning for his first […]

Elieser Hernandez Dealing With Biceps Inflammation

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Elieser Hernandez was forced to leave Saturday's start in the third inning with what originally appeared to be a hand injury. The on-air broadcast team assumed it was a blister issue, since Hernandez has dealt with blister issues in the past. After the game however, the Marlins announced that their starter […]

Jose Berrios Masterful With 12 Strikeouts In Six No-Hit Innings

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Jose Berrios was masterful in his first start of the 2021 season in a 2-0 win over the Brewers. Berrios had a no-hitter through six innings with no walks and 12 strikeouts, matching his career-high. The 26-year-old induced 18 swinging strikes- the fifth-highest total of his career- with nine of them […]

Omar Narvaez Strong Start To Season

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Omar Narvaez went 1-for-3 during Saturday's loss against the Twins. Narvaez was the only Milwaukee player who got a hit in a game where the Brewers were completely stymied by Jose Berrios. Narvaez was seeing the ball well in spring training and he's started the year on a strong note as well, […]

John Collins A No-Go Against Golden State

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (ankle) will remain sidelined for Sunday's matchup against Golden State. The 23-year-old suffered a left ankle sprain after landing on Clint Capela during Tuesday's matchup against Phoenix. An MRI revealed no significant damage, so he should be back in the lineup sometime in the next week or so, barring any […]

Claude Giroux Scores Two Goals In Losing Effort

Philadelphia Flyers forward Claude Giroux netted both of the team's goals in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Islanders. Travis Konecny and Jakub Voracek each recorded two assists. Giroux has always been more of a playmaker, but he's on quite a roll in front of the goal at the moment having netted 10 times since […]

Corbin Burnes Excellent Despite Loss

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Corbin Burnes (0-1) gave up one run while striking out 11 across 6 1/3 innings Saturday against the Twins. Burnes might have started the season with a loss, but he delivered an exceptional effort on the mound with 11 strikeouts and only giving up a run through a Byron Buxton homer […]

Garrett Cooper Blasts A Home Run On Saturday

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper had a big game on Saturday. He went 3-for-5 with a run and three RBI. He hit a home run, a double, and a single. Cooper is one of the best hitters on the Marlins roster, but with the designated hitter in the National League this season, his playing […]

Lewis Brinson Struggles In His Start On Saturday

Miami Marlins outfielder Lewis Brinson got the start in left field in Saturday's game against the Rays but did not do much with the opportunity. Despite being in a lineup that scored 12 runs, Brinson went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts. He was the only member of the starting lineup not to reach base. Don Mattingly […]

Trae Young Questionable On Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (knee) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Warriors. Young sat out on Friday with left knee soreness but considering that was the second game of back-to-back outings, he should find his way back into the lineup in a favorable matchup with Golden State. If he doesn't play, look for […]

Chad Green Picks Up A Save On Saturday

New York Yankees relief pitcher Chad Green picked up a four-out save against the Blue Jays on Saturday, giving him his first (and possibly only) save of the season. Closer Aroldis Chapman is expected to return from his two-game suspension for Sunday's game, bumping Green to the setup man role. Green likely has the leg […]

Anthony Beauvillier Has Two Goals In Saturday's Win

New York Islanders left wing Anthony Beauvillier recorded two goals in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over Philadelphia. He started the scoring with a power-play marker and put the Isles two goals up before the Flyers managed to sneak a point. Mathew Barzal, who had the lone assist on Beauvillier's second goal, was the only scorer […]

Starling Marte Stays Hot With Four More Hits On Saturday

Miami Marlins outfielder Starling Marte stayed hot in Saturday's game against the Rays. He went 4-for-5 with an RBI and three runs scored. Marte's hits were three singles and a triple. After an awful Opening Day performance in which he struck out four times, Marte has been on fire for the next two games. After […]

Miguel Rojas Scores Three Runs On Saturday

Miami Marlins shortstop Miguel Rojas filled up the stat sheet in Saturday's win over the Rays. Rojas led off and went 1-for-2 with three walks and three runs scored. His hit was a double, and he also stole a base. Rojas is off to a great start so far this season, and it looks like […]

Corey Kluber Solid In Yankees Debut

New York Yankees starting pitcher Corey Kluber looked decent on Saturday, tossing four innings of two-run ball (one earned) with five strikeouts. Kluber's command looked sharp at times on Saturday, but he still seemed rusty, and his already modest velocity was down significantly from 2019. Diminished velocity is a secondary concern for Kluber given his […]

Artemi Panarin Strikes Twice In Saturday's Loss

New York Rangers left wing Artemi Panarin posted a third consecutive multi-point game in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to Buffalo, scoring both of the team's goals. Adam Fox had assists on both markers to reach a 10-game point streak. Panarin became the 11th player in the league with 10-plus goals and 25-plus assists. He's in […]

Anthony Bass Bounces Back With A Clean Ninth Inning

Miami Marlins closer Anthony Bass bounced back from Friday's ugly blown save with a clean ninth inning in Saturday's win over the Rays. Bass ended up facing just three hitters, striking one out to wrap up the game. It wasn't a save situation, but it was good to see Bass come through with a clean […]

Gary Sanchez Homers Again

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez went 1-for-4 with his second home run in as many games on Saturday, shooting a 102.5 mph blast over the left-field wall in New York. Sanchez whiffed on only one of the 17 pitches he saw on Saturday, and he seems to have put last season's slump behind him. […]

Victor Olofsson Scores 10th Goal Of The Year

Buffalo Sabres winger Victor Olofsson reached 10 goals for the season with a late game-tying marker in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Rangers. He made it 2-2 16:19 into the third period with Sam Reinhart and Kyle Okposo picking up the assists. Casey Mittelstadt also scored for the Sabres, who won for only the […]

Malik Monk Sidelined For At Least Two Weeks

Charlotte Hornets forward Malik Monk (ankle) will be out for at least a few weeks. The 23-year-old sprained his right ankle a few nights ago during the meeting against the Brooklyn Nets. Though head coach James Borrego indicated he could be out until mid-April, fantasy managers should prepare for an absence that extends beyond that. […]

Gordon Hayward To Miss At Least A Month

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (foot) will miss at least a month. The veteran is dealing with a sprain in his right foot, an ailment that will cause him to miss some serious time. Without Hayward in the lineup, Miles Bridges will likely slide into the starting lineup, automatically making him an adequate waiver target […]

Dougie Hamilton Nets Fourth Goal Of The Season

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Dougie Hamilton found the back of the net for the fourth time this season in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Dallas. Fellow blueliner Haydn Fleury also scored to open his account for the year. Hamilton recorded a game-high nine shots in the loss with two blocks and two hits. The 27-year-old has set […]

Paul Campbell Makes His Debut On Saturday

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Paul Campbell, a Rule 5 pick, made his major league debut in Saturday's win over the Rays. Campbell was forced to come into the third inning after starter Elieser Hernandez (bicep) had to leave the game due to an injury. Campbell ended up throwing two innings, allowing three runs on […]

Rajon Rondo Could Make Debut On Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Rajon Rondo (groin) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Lakers. The veteran has yet to debut with his new club after being acquired from the Hawks, but could be in the lineup against his former team. With Patrick Beverley (knee) still out, Rondo may be in line for some minutes […]

Jonathan India Logs Second Straight Two-Hit Game

Cincinnati Reds rookie second baseman Jonathan India went 2-for-3 with an RBI in a 9-6 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday. India became the first Reds rookie to start his career with back-to-back multi-hit games since Ken Griffey Sr. back in 1973. India's hot start has made him an interesting name to monitor […]

John Klingberg Stretches Point Streak To Six Games

Dallas Stars defenseman John Klingberg took his point streak to six games in Saturday's 3-2 road win at Carolina by collecting a power-play assist on a Jamie Benn goal. It was a busy night for the Swede, who had three shots, two blocks and two hits in the game in 22:01 of ice time. Klingberg […]

Nolan Arenado Hits His First Cardinals Home Run

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado hit his first home run as a Cardinal in Saturday's loss to the Reds. Arenado went 2-for-5 with two runs scored and two RBI. His homer came in the ninth inning, leaving Arenado with an even .400 batting average and a 1.100 OPS in the early going. He's […]
