Andrew Vaughn Won't Start On Opening Day

Chicago White Sox first base prospect Andrew Vaughn will not be in the Thursday's Opening Day lineup. It comes as a bit of a surprise with Vaughn's service time starting early and outfielder Eloy Jimenez (pectoral) sidelined. Manager Tony La Russa will instead go with utilityman Leury Garcia in left field and backup catcher Zack […]

Brandon Clarke A Late Scratch Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke (personal) was a late scratch on Wednesday and won't suit up against the Jazz. Clarke will miss the game for personal reasons- and is one of three Grizzlies out for the contest, including Grayson Allen (hip) and Justice Winslow (thigh). Clarke's absence will mean more opportunities for Kyle Anderson and […]

Phil Mickelson Unreliable At Valero

Phil Mickelson has posted top-35 finishes in each of his last two starts, but it is tough to trust him this week at TPC San Antonio. He continues to put himself in bad spots off the tee, leaving him more difficult iron shots. As much as Mickelson is known for his short game, his scrambling […]

Derrick Rose Ruled Out Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) was downgraded to out for Wednesday's game with the Timberwolves. Rose was initially expected to suit up, but a sore left ankle will keep him on the sidelines against Minnesota. His absence will mean more opportunities for Immanuel Quickley and Elfrid Payton, who will handle the point guard […]

Hideki Matsuyama Set For Debut At TPC San Antonio

Hideki Matsuyama will make his first career start at TPC San Antonio after a T42 finish last week at WGC - Match Play. Matsuyama has not posted elite results this season, but he has been consistent with seven top-25 finishes in 15 starts. He has been very good approaching the green and around the green. […]

Filip Forsberg Out Week-To-Week For Predators

Nashville Predators forward Filip Forsberg has been labeled as out week-to-week with an upper-body injury. The 26-year-old hasn't appeared in a contest last Thursday's victory over the Red Wings, missing the Preds' past three games. The injury news comes as a big blow as the Swedish forward has been putting together one of the finest […]

Shayne Gostisbehere In Press Box On Wednesday

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere will be a healthy scratch as his team faces off against the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday night. The 27-year-old, who was placed on waivers just yesterday by the Flyers, has been assigned to the taxi squad. Gostisbehere has somewhat fallen out of favor with his club after struggling to produce […]

Nolan Patrick Healthy Scratched On Wednesday

Philadelphia Flyers forward Nolan Patrick will not dress as his team looks to close out a back-to-back set with two wins over the reeling Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday night. The 22-year-old will watch the game with an aerial view as healthy scratch as he's managed to muster up just two goals over his past 27 […]

Jack Campbell Back In Net On Wednesday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Jack Campbell will guard the cage as his team takes to the road to face the Winnipeg Jets on Wednesday night. The 29-year-old is coming off arguably his worst start of the campaign in allowing three goals on 20 shots on Saturday but still managed to pick up an overtime victory […]

John Wall Ruled Out Against Brooklyn

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (knee) will miss Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Wall was questionable with his knee injury, but this is not a back-to-back set so it is a little worrisome. There is always the chance Wall undergoes a procedure on his knee to end his season, but that is more […]

Zion Williamson, Lonzo Ball Both Questionable Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson (thumb) and guard Lonzo Ball (hip) are questionable to play Thursday against the Orlando Magic. Ball has been dealing with a hip flexor over the past week and should be nearing a return any day now. Williamson, on the other hand, picked up a sprained thumb in their last […]

Yankees Place Miguel Andujar On The Injured List

New York Yankees third baseman Miguel Andujar (wrist) was placed on the 10-day injured list with carpal tunnel syndrome on Wednesday. Andujar hasn't played in a game since March 10, but he's been throwing and hitting off of a tee as he works through his wrist injury. Although he's unlikely to make much of a […]

Jeremy Lamb Out, Doug McDermott In Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (toe) is out, but guard/forward Doug McDermott (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Miami Heat. Lamb was getting over some knee soreness only to suffer a sprained toe which will sideline him against the Heat. McDermott, on the other hand, seems to have gotten over a swollen ankle and will […]

John Collins Will Miss Thursday With Ankle Sprain

Atlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (ankle) will not play Thursday when the Hawks face the San Antonio Spurs. Collins landed on his teammate's foot on Tuesday and appeared to badly twist his ankle so this makes sense. It remains to be seen if Collins will miss extended time, but Danilo Gallinari should be the biggest […]

Bradley Beal Questionable Against Pistons

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hip) is questionable to play Thursday against the Detroit Pistons. Beal has missed the past two games after taking a hard fall and experiencing hip soreness over the past few days. If Beal misses again, Russell Westbrook will likely continue his tear on the box score while Jerome Robinson should […]

Jarrett Allen And Larry Nance Jr. Remain Out Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers centers Jarrett Allen (concussion) and Larry Nance Jr. (illness) will sit Thursday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Allen remains in the league's concussion protocols while Nance is still dealing with a non-COVID related illness. Dean Wade and Isaiah Hartenstein will likely both start again on Thursday and Hartenstein in particular looked very good in […]

Jaylen Brown Available To Play Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (hip) is available to play Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Brown is returning from a one-game absence due to a sore hip, but should resume his normal starting role. This will be the first time Brown plays with newly acquired Evan Fournier so it will be interesting to see how […]

Victor Oladipo Expected To Debut Thursday

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (illness) is out Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers, but is expected to play Thursday against the Golden State Warriors. Oladipo has been cleared to play and has been working out in their home arena as he gets ready to make his Miami debut. The rotations will get a little tricky […]

Luke Voit Has No Timetable Post Knee Surgery

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit underwent surgery to repair a partially torn meniscus in his left knee on Monday. He told reporters on Wednesday that there's "no timetable" for his return but that he "expects to be back pretty soon." Players are often overly optimistic about their injury recovery times but he's expected […]

Kendrick Nunn Will Not Play Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Kendrick Nunn (ankle) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers. Nunn was questionable and had the chance to return after missing one game due to an ankle sprain, but will sit again as he continues to heal. Tyler Herro and Goran Dragic should get more opportunity here while Victor Oladipo […]

Jake Fraley Makes Opening Day Roster

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jake Fraley has made the opening day roster. Fraley entered camp as the favorite to be the starter in left field, at least until Jarred Kelenic arrives in the big leagues, but his cold start at the plate made it more likely he would begin 2021 in the minors. Now, thanks to […]

Tony Wolters Signs One-Year Deal With Cubs

Free agent catcher Tony Wolters has signed a one-year, major-league deal with the Chicago Cubs, according to Patrick Mooney of The Athletic. The team designated relief pitcher James Norwood for assignment in a corresponding move. Wolters was released by the Pittsburgh Pirates just one day ago so it didn't take long for him to find […]

Drew Steckenrider Has Made The Mariners

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Drew Steckenrider has made the big league team, and will be in the bullpen mix to start the year. While not expected to handle saves, or even be a primary set-up man, Steckenrider has a history of strong strikeout numbers with a career rate of 11.24 strikeouts per nine innings. He […]

Nicky Lopez Has Been Recalled By The Royals

Kansas City Royals second baseman Nicky Lopez has been recalled to the major league club in a corresponding move as shortstop Adalberto Mondesi was placed on the 10-day injured list with an oblique strain. Lopez was just optioned to Triple-A one day ago after a very poor performance this spring. The 26-year-old holds a .228/.279/.307 […]

Kyle Lewis Will Start The Season On The Injured List

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis (knee) will not be in the opening day lineup, and might not appear in a game for some time. When Lewis initially collided with the outfield wall in a Cactus League matchup, it was not thought that he would miss any time at all, but he ended up being held […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. Feels "100%" For Regular Season

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. told reporters that he feels "100%" and "ready to go" for the regular season, per Alden Gonzalez of ESPN. The superstar shortstop aggravated a left shoulder issue in a Cactus League game last week but has since returned to the lineup and looks fine. Tatis Jr. mentioned that […]

Matt Kuchar Looking For Strong Outing At Valero

Matt Kuchar lost in the semifinals at last week's WGC - Match Play and will look to build on that performance this week. Kuchar has made the cut in all eight of his appearances at the Valero Texas Open, with his best finish being fourth in 2014. Kuchar has done a good job of keeping […]
