Kristian Campbell Turning In Torrid June For Double-A Portland

Boston Red Sox infield prospect Kristian Campbell is picking up the pace in June for Double-A Portland. This month, Boston's No. 30 prospect is hitting .421 with three homers and 12 RBI for the Sea Dogs. The Georgia Tech product has speed to burn on the base paths and has produced at least one hit […]

Justin Foscue Has Rehab Assignment Moved To Triple-A Round Rock

Texas Rangers infield prospect Justin Foscue (oblique) went 1-for-2 with two walks for Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday. The 25-year-old saw his rehab assignment moved to Triple-A as he continues to progress in his return from an oblique strain. Foscue had just gotten the call-up to the Rangers when he suffered his injury in early […]

Jake Cronenworth Hits Walk-Off Home Run

San Diego Padres infielder Jake Cronenworth went 2-for-5 with two runs and a home run in Thursday's victory versus the Milwaukee Brewers. Cronenworth's biggest hit of the night was the biggest of the game, as he hit a 401-foot home run off Joel Payamps to the bleachers to win the contest. The versatile infielder has […]

St. Louis Cardinals utility man Brendan Donovan had a big game on Thursday, going 3-for-4 with a homer, a run, and three RBI in a 6-5 win over the San Francisco Giants.

Adael Amador Dealing With Mild Oblique Strain

Colorado Rockies rookie infielder Adael Amador (oblique) is dealing with a mild oblique strain after being pulled early from Thursday's series finale against the visiting division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. According to manager Bud Black, Amador suffered a similar injury in May while playing for Double-A Hartford. Before leaving the eventual 5-3 loss in the eighth […]

Gleyber Torres Leaves Early Thursday With Groin Tightness

New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres (groin) left Thursday's blowout loss to the visiting Baltimore Orioles in the sixth inning with tightness in his right groin. However, manager Aaron Boone said he doesn't expect Torres' groin to be anything serious. It sounds like the Yankees pulled Torres as more of a precaution, and the […]

Thairo Estrada Getting The Day Off On Thursday

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada is not in Thursday's lineup as the Giants open a three-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals at Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama. Estrada has made 14 consecutive starts and will give keystone duties to Brett Wisely this evening. During this stretch, the 28-year-old has struggled with a […]

Jorge Polanco Plays In Full Rehab Game

Seattle Mariners second baseman Jorge Polanco (hamstring) played a full minor-league rehab game on Wednesday with Triple-A Tacoma as the designated hitter and went 1-for-4 with a walk and a run scored. Now that Polanco has played in back-to-back games two separate times on his rehab assignment means that his return to Seattle is probably […]

Abraham Toro Out Again Against Royals

Oakland Athletics infielder Abraham Toro (shoulder) is not in the starting lineup once again on Thursday against the visiting Kansas City Royals. Toro will miss a third straight game due to a sore shoulder. Aledmys Diaz is starting at the hot corner for the A's and will bat ninth against Royals right-hander Seth Lugo. Toro […]

Gavin Lux, Jason Heyward Out Against A Southpaw

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux and outfielder Jason Heyward are both out of the lineup on Thursday with the team facing left-hander Ty Blach and the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. Chris Taylor will take over at second base and bat ninth, while Teoscar Hernandez is in right field and batting cleanup for […]

Spencer Horwitz Collects Two More Hits On Wednesday

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Spencer Horwitz went 2-for-4 in Wednesday's 7-3 loss to the Red Sox. Horwitz has now hit safely in eight of the nine games he's started since being called up, going 12-for-34 (.353) with four multi-hit games. The 26-year-old is showing a patient eye at the plate as well, coaxing six […]

Enmanuel Valdez Homers, Scores Three Times In Win

Boston Red Sox second baseman Enmanuel Valdez went 2-for-3 in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Blue Jays, recording his sixth home run of the season, which was a solo shot off Jays starter Kevin Gausman. The 25-year-old also walked once and scored three times. The left-handed hitter has a .215 average on the season, but […]

MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (6/20/24) - Today's Top Lineups

I'm still pinch-hitting for Euan today, which brings us a rather busy Thursday. It's not an even split, though, with seven of the nine games in the afternoon making that the main slate. That gives us an abnormally large Thursday with several good options. We just have to watch out for rain in Chicago and […]

Dylan O'Rae Promoted To Double-A

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman prospect Dylan O'Rae was promoted to Double-A Biloxi on Tuesday. The 20-year-old hit .266 with a .405 OBP and led the Midwest League in stolen bases with 33 before his promotion. It didn't take long for him to record his first Double-A hit, as he took the first pitch he saw […]

Dakota Harris Showing Off Some Power

St. Louis Cardinals prospect Dakota Harris is a middle infielder who found his way to the organization during the 11th round of last year's MLB Draft. The Oklahoma product has already contributed at the plate, putting plenty of balls in play and even flashing some power. On a less exciting note, he's striking out too […]

Kristian Campbell Makes Quick Impression At Double-A

Boston Red Sox prospect Kristian Campbell is a former fourth-round pick out of Georgia Tech who has had one of the fastest ascensions to prominence in all of Minor League Baseball. At the plate, he makes good contact, peppers all parts of the field, and minimizes whiffs. He's more of a line-drive hitter and can't […]

Brandon Drury Under The Weather, Scratched From The Lineup

Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (illness) was scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers due to an illness. With Drury retreating to the bench while he's under the weather, Luis Rengifo will man the hot corner in Anaheim and bat second, while veteran Luis Guillorme will play second base and bat […]

David Hamilton Returns For Red Sox

Boston Red Sox infielder David Hamilton (side) is back in the starting lineup for the Red Sox on Wednesday against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays, playing shortstop and batting second against Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. Hamilton injured his left side in Monday's series opener in Canada and was forced to start Tuesday's game on […]

Impact Fantasy Baseball Injured Players To Stash Now (Week 13)

The MLB season is long and tumultuous. Injuries and slumps are a staple of every season but how we approach them in our fantasy leagues can separate playoff teams and the eventual champion from the rest of their pack. Nearly halfway through the year, we have a chunk of players who either performed early before […]

Kody Clemens To Go On Rehab Assignment This Week

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Kody Clemens (back) will go out on a minor-league rehab assignment this week, and it will include regular work in left field. The Phillies optioned outfielder Johan Rojas to Triple-A Lehigh Valley this week, so when Clemens returns, his best chance to crack the Phillies' starting lineup could be in right field […]

After a bit of a lull in the world of prospect promotions, the last couple of weeks have been very active on the prospect front. Joey Loperfido has gone up and down what feels like 35 times, and we saw Addison Barger recalled, along with the debuts of Ben Rice and Orelvis Martinez. My gut […]
