2020 Hindsight? What This Season Can Teach Fantasy Owners

What will this baseball season mean?

Mets Will Look To Get Dominic Smith More Starts

Following a 4-2 loss to the Red Sox on Thursday, New York Mets manager Luis Rojas said the Mets will look to get first baseman Dominic Smith more starts.

Jeurys Familia Sharp In Mets Loss To Red Sox

New York Mets relief pitcher Jeurys Familia pitched a scoreless inning, striking out two in the Mets 4-2 loss to Boston on Thursday.

Francisco Lindor Goes Deep Thursday

Cleveland Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's victory over Minnesota. Lindor accounted for the only runs of the game with a two-run blast in the third inning. The homer was Lindor's second of the season and fourth extra-base hit across 29 at-bats. He is batting only .207 (6-for-29) […]

Lonzo Ball Has Rough Night Shooting In Loss

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball scored only four points during the loss to the Jazz on Thursday night. In classic fashion, Ball had another shoddy shooting performance, going 2-for-13 from the field while missing all four of his attempts from deep. He did supply seven assists, six boards, and two steals, but overall, this […]

Zion Williamson Scores 13 Points In Limited Action

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson produced 13 points and one assist during the loss to the Utah Jazz on Thursday night. The rookie, who recently returned to the team after leaving the confines of the bubble to attend a family matter, logged only 15 minutes of action. As he gets more practice time, coach […]

Brandon Ingram Leads To In Scoring In Loss

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram was productive on Thursday despite his team narrowly falling to the Utah Jazz, finishing with 23 points. He also added eight boards and a block. The former Laker went 8-for-20 from the field but struggled a bit from deep by sinking only two of his eight attempts. The 22-year-old […]

Donovan Mitchell Racks Up 20 Points In Win

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell produced 20 points on 6-for-14 shooting during the Thursday night win over the Pelicans.

Rudy Gobert Comes Up Big On Thursday Night

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert had a double-double in the Thursday night win over the New Orleans Pelicans, finishing with 14 points and 12 boards.

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley produced 20 points throughout 34 minutes in the win over the Pelicans on Thursday. He also added four assists, a steal, and a block.

Jordan Clarkson Provides Spark Off The Bench In Win

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson lead his team in scoring during the 106-104 narrow victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday. The 28-year-old dropped 23 points on the night, going 8-for-17 from the field and 6-for-7 from the charity stripe. While he struggled from deep by making only one of his eight three-point attempts, […]

Marco Gonzales Bounces Back With Stellar Performance

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Marco Gonzales gave up two unearned runs on three hits and a walk and struck out six batters through 6 1/3 innings in Thursday's game against the Angels. Gonzales looked much better in this start, but he was pitching against a mediocre Angels lineup without Mike Trout. Gonzales is currently scheduled […]

Luis Castillo Pushed Back To Start Against Tigers

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Luis Castillo will get the ball Friday night versus the Tigers after Thursday's rainout. It's a juicy matchup for the 27-year-old who will pitch in the spacious Comerica Park against a Detroit team that leads the league in K-rate against right-handers (35.2% K%). The club entered Thursday's game hitting a measly […]

Mets To Discuss Edwin Diaz's Role After Another Rough Outing

New York Mets manager Luis Rojas stated after Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Red Sox that they'll discuss Edwin Diaz's role in the team's bullpen with the team's brass. He was put into the ninth inning with the team down 3-2 and went on to issue two walks, a single, and a hit-by-pitch. Luckily, Paul […]

Mitch Garver Completes Hat Trick Against Indians

Minnesota Twins catcher Mitch Garver came to the plate three times against Cleveland Indians ace Shane Bieber and struck out all three times. Garver wasn't alone, considering 13 Twins were sent down swinging by Bieber. Still it's not a particularly strong start to the season for the 29-year-old, who is 2-for-13 with eight strikeouts in […]

J.A. Happ Hit Hard On Thursday

New York Yankees starting pitcher J.A. Happ struggled on Thursday, allowing four runs over four innings against the Orioles. Happ allowed a whopping nine hard-hit balls to a Baltimore lineup that ranked last in hard-hit rate last season, and his 7% swinging-strike rate was poor as well. Happ’s fastball velocity on Thursday was also down […]

Derek Fisher Suffers Quad Injury

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Derek Fisher left Thursday's game early versus the Nationals after experiencing quad tightness in his left leg. He was 0-for-1 in the contest before getting lifted in the third inning and was replaced by Joe Panik. Fisher has received generous playing time since Randal Grichuk has been out of the lineup, […]

Luis Arraez Gets Hit In Fifth Straight Game

Minnesota Twins second baseman Luis Arraez went 1-for-3 with a single in a 2-0 loss to the Cleveland Indians. Arraez has now gotten a hit in each of the five games he's played in 2020, including two multi-hit games. Impressively, the 23-year-old didn't strike out on a night when 13 Twins were sent back to […]

Sean Doolittle Working On "Mechanical Tweaks"

Washington Nationals manager Davey Martinez gave some insight into the team's decision to have Daniel Hudson close out Thursday's 6-4 win over the Blue Jays. He stated he wanted to stay away from the left-hander since he's working on some "mechanical tweaks." Doolittle has appeared in two games this season, allowing one run on two […]
