Fantasy Baseball Injury News and Updates: Jordan Romano, Max Scherzer, Zac Gallen, Max Muncy and more....

This has been a rough week in the injury department for pitchers. Four fantasy-relevant pitchers were scheduled for Tommy John surgery. Another two pitchers were placed on the IL with the unlucky injury called "forearm/flexor tendon strain." I thought this would be a good week to talk a little about elbow injuries and pitchers. When […]

Jordan Westburg Homers Friday

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jordan Westburg had a strong night at the plate in his team's 6-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday.

Nico Hoerner Absent On Friday

Chicago Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner (hand) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Cubs manager Craig Counsell said that Hoerner's X-rays came back somewhat inconclusive. For the moment, fantasy managers should consider Hoerner as day-to-day. Although, it wouldn't be shocking to see Hoerner land on the injured […]

Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman Nick Gonzales continued to swing a hot bat in Thursday's 11-7 loss to the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers in the series finale, going 2-for-5 with his fourth home run of the season, two RBI and a run scored.
