Nick Madrigal To Be Re-Evaluated

Chicago Cubs second baseman Nick Madrigal (groin) was forced to exit early during Sunday's rehab game. The young infielder will be re-evaluated after experiencing tightness in his groin.

Braves Acquire Robinson Cano

The Atlanta Braves have agreed to a deal to acquire second baseman Robinson Cano from the San Diego Padres for cash considerations. They will receive the 39-year-old slugger on a veteran minimum deal. The New York Mets are on the hook for $24 million after releasing Cano earlier in the season. Cano has struggled with […]

Whit Merrifield Will Undergo MRI

Kansas City Royals infielder Whit Merrifield (toe) is set to undergo an MRI after exiting early during Sunday's game.

However, they want to be safe and have further evaluation on Merrifield. Fantasy […]

Brendan Donovan Remains Out On Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals utility man Brendan Donovan (illness) is out of the lineup on Sunday as he continues to recover from an illness. Manager Oliver Marmol told reporters that Donovan's symptoms aren't necessarily "COVID symptoms" but did not disclose anything further to reporters. He's missed the last two contests as a result of the illness […]

Brandon Lowe Back In The Lineup For Triple-A Durham

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Brandon Lowe (head, back) was able to work out on Saturday and is back in the lineup with Triple-A Durham on Sunday, per beat writer Marc Topkin. Lowe, who has been on a rehab assignment as he covers from a lower back injury, was hit in the head by a pitch […]

2B/SS Waiver Wire Pickups for Fantasy Baseball Week 14

The MLB season continues to fly by. Most teams have played over 80 games, meaning the regular season is more than half over even though we have another week before the All-Star break. Using the All-Star Game as the "first half" and "second half" divider works for real-life baseball thanks to postseason action, but for […]

Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Fantasy Baseball - Week 14

Have we found a reasonable median expectation for offense moving forward? So far in July, the offensive output has been remarkably similar, though power still remains down compared to previous seasons. On the bright side, we are seeing slightly fewer strikeouts, so the league-wide on-base percentage is roughly unchanged from last year. That being said, […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/10/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

It's Sunday, July 10th, another Sunday slate filled with some exciting games.

This article has daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel and […]

Jeff McNeil To Go On Paternity Leave Monday

New York Mets second baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil will go on paternity leave after this weekend's series against the Miami Marlins. It is unfortunate timing for the Mets, who travel to Atlanta for an important 3 game set with the Braves starting Monday. For fantasy managers, it at least opens up the opportunity to get someone […]

Luis Arraez Getting A Day Off

Minnesota Twins infielder Luis Arraez is getting the day off on Saturday against the Texas Rangers. The 25-year-old is getting a well-deserved day of rest against left-hander Martin Perez. Arraez is having a phenomenal season, slashing .352/.425/.456 with four home runs, 29 RBI, and two stolen bases over 281 at-bats. He leads all of MLB […]

Tommy Edman Not In The Starting Lineup On Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Tommy Edman is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Philadelphia Phillies. The Cards are rolling with Nolan Gorman, who's batting leadoff, at second base and Edmundo Sosa at shortstop against right-hander Kyle Gibson. Edman has now sat out two of the last three games but should be back […]

Whit Merrifield Homers In Three-Hit Game

Kansas City Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield enjoyed a rare strong game at the plate Friday, going 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and a run scored. Merrifield is off to a good start in July, slashing .364/.432/.667 with two homers and three steals in that span, though his OPS for the season remains […]

Saturdays and Sundays are made for day baseball and we are getting another big late afternoon slate today with a 9-game 4:05 slate on both sites and only four games in the evening. For the sake of my own sanity (and yours), I am going to focus on that slate only with these picks today. […]

Jurickson Profar Placed On The 7-Day Concussion IL

San Diego Padres infielder Jurickson Profar (concussion, neck) was placed on the 7-day concussion list on Friday. He was involved in a scary collision with his teammate C.J. Abrams while attempting to catch a pop-up in left field. The 29-year-old sustained a concussion and a neck strain in Thursday's win. Profar slashed .242/.343/.397 with eight […]

Tommy La Stella Placed On The COVID-19 IL

The San Francisco Giants placed second baseman Tommy La Stella (illness) on the COVID-19 injured list on Friday. It's unclear if La Stella tested positive or was a close contact. The 33-year-old will be eligible to return as soon as he clears protocols. He is slashing .241/.281/.375 with two home runs, 11 RBI, and 13 […]

Yu Chang Added To Rays Roster On Friday

The Tampa Bay Rays have added infielder Yu Chang to the active roster ahead of the weekend series against the Cincinnati Reds. The 26-year-old was claimed off waivers from the Pittsburgh Pirates earlier this week. He also spent time with the Cleveland Guardians to begin the 2022 season. The results haven't been there for Chang, […]

Brandon Lowe Removed During Rehab Game

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Brandon Lowe (head, back) was removed during Thursday's rehab game with Triple-A Durham. The left-handed slugger was struck in the back of the helmet during a plate appearance in the third inning. As a precaution, the team decided to pull Lowe from the contest. The 28-year-old is working his way back […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/8/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

We were really close to getting a full 15-game slate, but the Reds and Rays are playing a 6:40 PM game, meaning we have "only" 14 games on the main slate instead. That also means my favorite lefty fireballer Shane McClanahan (and also the surging Luis Castillo) are not on the main slate, but we […]

Miguel Vargas Makes Futures Game

Los Angeles Dodgers infield prospect Miguel Vargas has made the Futures Game roster. It's no surprise with Vargas performing at an elite level for Triple-A Oklahoma City. The infielder has been adding to his versatility lately with action in left field and that could help ascend him to a stacked Dodgers big-league roster at some […]
