Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (shoulder) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder contusion, retroactive to June 30.

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Brendan Donovan (arm) is back in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the New York Yankees.

Luis Garcia (2B/SS, WAS) - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15

BALLER MOVE: Add in 15+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 23% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With each passing week, I get more perplexed at how Luis Garcia's roster rate remains so low. He's batting .280 on the season thanks to a 96th-percentile K-rate. He's got 36 runs, 37 RBI, five homers, and four steals, so he contributes […]

Jordan Westburg (SS, BAL) - Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 15

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of Leagues ANALYSIS: In the pantheon of top prospects, Jordan Westburg got lost in the shuffle. Perhaps it's because of the loaded Orioles farm system, which includes a higher-rated shortstop in Jackson Holliday. Whatever the reason Westburg was overlooked, he's in the Majors now and got […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/2/23): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

We have a busy Sunday in the majors, but most of the action is early in the afternoon...but not too early. DraftKings and FanDuel don't like that.

Ha-Seong Kim Dealing With Hamstring Strain

San Diego Padres infielder Ha-Seong Kim (hamstring) is dealing with a left-hamstring strain, which is why he wasn't in the lineup for Friday's series opener against the Cincinnati Reds.

Taylor Walls Back In Action Against Mariners

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Taylor Walls (back) has returned to the starting lineup on Friday against the Seattle Mariners and right-hander Bryce Miller, and he is starting at second base and batting eighth in the lineup.
