Wilmer Flores Heading To The Injured List

San Francisco Giants infielder Wilmer Flores (foot) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a foot contusion. The Giants recalled Tristan Beck in a corresponding move. Flores will miss at least the next 10 days. The 31-year-old slashed .258/.324/.452 with seven home runs, 23 RBI, and 20 runs across 173 plate appearances. The […]

Michael Massey Remains Out On Saturday

Kansas City Royals second baseman Michael Massey (finger) remains out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. He suffered a laceration to his left index finger prior to Friday's game. As a precaution, the Royals will hold Massey out of Saturday's game as well. The assumption is that this is […]

Jean Segura Lands On The Injured List

Miami Marlins infielder Jean Segura (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Segura initially hurt his hamstring during Wednesday's contest against the Mariners before missing Friday's opener against the Nationals. The 33-year-old has been an unmitigated disaster for the Marlins, after signing a two-year, $17 million with Miami in the offseason. He's slashing […]

Mauricio Dubon Taking A Seat Against The Reds On Saturday

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Mauricio Dubon is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. This looks to be a routine day off for the 28-year-old utility man. Dubon has been excellent for Houston this season, slashing .290/.315/.403 with three home runs, 15 RBI, and five stolen bases over 221 at-bats. Corey Julks is […]

Nick Madrigal Not In Saturday's Lineup

Chicago Cubs infielder Nick Madrigal will start on the pine for Saturday's contest against the visiting Baltimore Orioles. It appears to just be a normal day of rest for Madrigal, who has gone 5-for-15 with two RBI in his last five games. The 26-year-old hasn't really panned out in the big leagues after the Chicago […]

Michael Massey Scratched On Friday

Kansas City Royals second baseman Michael Massey (finger) has been scratched from Friday's starting lineup versus the Los Angeles Angels. The 25-year-old suffered a finger laceration, so the team will hold him out from this contest. This sounds like a minor issue, so fantasy managers should consider Massey as day-to-day. In the meantime, Matt Duffy […]

Mauricio Dubon Back In Leadoff Spot

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Mauricio Dubon is starting in right field and is back in the leadoff spot on Friday against the Cincinnati Reds and rookie left-hander Andrew Abbott.

The Kansas City Royals recalled infielder/outfielder Samad Taylor from Triple-A Omaha on Friday and optioned infielder/outfielder Nate Eaton to Omaha in a corresponding move.

Ozzie Albies To Remain In Two-Hole Friday

Even with the Colorado Rockies starting right-hander Dinelson Lamet on Friday, Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker is planning to keep second baseman Ozzie Albies in the second spot in the batting order. Out of the two-hole on Thursday, Alvies went 3-for-4 with a double and three RBI. Before Thursday's game, first baseman Matt Olson had […]
