MLB Betting Picks (7/24/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

Well, it wasn't exactly the opening night that we expected with the Yankees/Nationals game getting suspended after the fifth due to rain. Good for the Yankees, bad for our runline bet as most books are going to void that in an unfinished game. However, we got some relief in the back-end thanks to seven runs […]

Drew Steckenrider Likely Out For The Season

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Drew Steckenrider was placed on the 45-day injured list due to right triceps tendinitis. It's likely the righty won't pitch again until the 2021 season. Steckenrider showed some promise in the past, but injuries have limited him to just 14 1/3 innings since 2018. He was expected to work near the […]

Week 1 Bullpen Usage Report for Fantasy Baseball

One of the biggest questions in baseball this season will be how managers approach bullpen usage. That was already arguably the manager's heaviest workload in a normal season, apart from immeasurable impacts on team mood and cohesion. However, this year the bullpen will be in even clearer focus. Every blown save counts 2.7 times more […]

Jose Quintana Officially Placed On 10-Day IL

The Chicago Cubs have placed starting pitcher Jose Quintana (thumb) on the 10-day injured list after he severed a nerve in his thumb cleaning a wine glass earlier this month. The left-hander is on the road to recovery, but is yet to throw off a mound and will need at least a couple of weeks […]

Jake Odorizzi Placed On Injured List

The Minnesota Twins have placed starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi on the 10-day injured list after he battled back stiffness all through summer camp. His placement will be backdated so there’s a chance he returns to the rotation the second time through. The right-hander won 15 games a year ago while holding a respectable 3.51 ERA […]

Hunter Harvey Placed On IL Thursday With Elbow Soreness

Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Hunter Harvey was placed on the 10-day IL Thursday with muscular soreness in his right elbow area. However, manager Brandon Hyde described the O's caution with him as “conservative”. The 25-year-old was a former first-round pick but has never managed to stay healthy. He has an exciting arsenal of pitches and […]

Giancarlo Stanton Opens The Season With A Home Run

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton homered in his first at-bat against Max Scherzer as part of a 2-for-3 night with three RBI on Thursday. Any concerns about Stanton's calf bothering him we're quickly alleviated, though he did DH and is unlikely to play defense for most of this season. Fantasy owners should expect Stanton […]

Derek Dietrich Signs With Cubs

The Chicago Cubs have signed infielder Derek Dietrich. Dietrich was recently let go by the Cincinnati Reds. Dietrich will report to the South Bend Cubs and serve as organizational depth. Dietrich, 31, had a late start to camp after testing positive for COVID-19. Dietrich might need an injury to get a shot at the big […]

Postseason Expanded To 16 Teams For 2020

Major League Baseball and the Players Association announced on Thursday that the 2020 playoffs will expand to 16 teams, beginning with eight best-of-three wild-card series preceding the Division Series. The higher seeds in the wild-card series will host all three games, which will be scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 29 through Friday, Oct. 2. The entire […]

Gerrit Cole Looks Good In First Start Of The Season

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole cruised through five innings against the Nationals on Thursday, allowing just one run and two baserunners on 75 pitches. Cole would likely have pitched closer to 100 pitches as long as he continued to pitch well, but a rain delay ended his start prematurely. Cole’s fastball sat around […]

Kyle Wright Makes Braves Rotation

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kyle Wright will serve as the No. 5 in the Opening Day starting rotation. Mike Soroka will start on Opening Day on Friday against the Rays, followed by left-hander Max Fried, lefty Sean Newcomb, Mike Foltynewicz and Wright. Wright, 24, is listed by MLB Pipeline as the team's No. 4 prospect. […]

Dylan Carlson Disappointed He's Not On Opening Day Roster

St. Louis Cardinals top outfield prospect Dylan Carlson was not included on the team's Opening Day roster, and he admitted that he was "disappointed" with the decision after a strong spring and a standout 2019 season in the minors. The five outfielders on the roster are Harrison Bader, Dexter Fowler, Tyler O'Neill, Lane Thomas and […]

Andrew Heaney Headlines Halos Rotation

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Andrew Heaney will start on Opening Day against the A's on Friday, followed by Dylan Bundy on Saturday, Shohei Ohtani on Sunday and Griffin Canning on Monday. The Angels will go with a six-man rotation this year, but the team's fifth and sixth starters remain to be determined. Ohtani, coming […]

Juan Soto Might Not Be Out Long

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto, who tested positive for COVID-19, took multiple instant-result coronavirus tests on Thursday -- both saliva and nasal -- and the results were negative, according to sources. This doesn't clear Soto to play Thursday or in the coming days, as he'll need to receive back-to-back negative results through the labs MLB […]

Hunter Pence The DH On Opening Night

San Francisco Giants outfielder Hunter Pence (foot) is serving as the designated hitter and is batting fifth on Thursday night against Dodgers right-handed starter Dustin May. Pence was dealing with some foot inflammation in the last part of summer camp, but he's clearly fine to hit to open the regular season. The universal DH in […]

Fabricio Werdum Returns To Octagon For Second Time In 2020

Fabricio Werdum (23-9-1) returns to the Octagon after a split-decision loss to Alexey Oleinik in May of this year. 2-3 since 2017, the 42-year-old will welcome the much younger Alexander Gustafsson to the heavyweight division. The former UFC heavyweight champion is obviously a ground specialist, with 11 of his 23 wins coming by submission. His […]

Marina Rodriguez Looks To Keep Her Unbeaten Streak Alive
