Corey Dickerson Out Of The Lineup On Sunday

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Corey Dickerson is not starting in Sunday's series finale against the St. Louis Cardinals. Although Dickerson has yet to slow down at the plate, slashing .313/.347/.490, his team's new outfield rotation has limited his playing time lately, as this is the third time he's been out of the lineup in the last […]

Bryce Harper, Matt Adams Out of Nationals Lineup Sunday

Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper and first baseman Matt Adams are out of Sunday's lineup against the Braves reports Mark Zuckerman of MASNsports.com. This appears to simply be a day off for the two sluggers, as Brian Goodwin will get the start in right field while Wilmer Difo will start at first base. Owners should […]

Yankees-Orioles Series Finale Has Been Postponed

Sweeny Murti of WFAN reports that the series finale between the Yankees and Orioles originally scheduled for Sunday afternoon has been postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up as a doubleheader in mid-August. Owners in daily leagues need to swap out any Yankees and Orioles players in their lineup before the […]

David Peralta Goes Deep For Second Straight Game

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder David Peralta went 1-for-3 with a two run home run in Saturday's 6-1 win against the Marlins. Peralta has responded well to being moed out of the leadoff spot, hitting a home run for the second consecutive game. With the entire Diamondbacks offense starting to heat up, Peralta should see more RBI […]

Hunter Pence Activated From Disabled List On Saturday

San Francisco Giants outfielder Hunter Pence was activated from the disabled list Saturday. Pence missed over a month with a right thumb sprain. Pence changed his swing during his rehab and was seeing good results for Triple-A Sacramento. Manager Bruce Bochy stated that Mac Williamson will be the team’s everyday left fielder and that leaves […]

The Cut List (Week 10) Time to Let Go?

Welcome to Week 10 of the Cut List. My suggestions from last week were looking good until Eduardo Escobar hit three home runs between Thursday and Friday. That’ll happen occasionally, but I think my suggestions have been sound throughout the year. This week, I take a look at Kevin Pillar, Adam Duvall, Gregory Polanco, and […]

Carlos Tocci Activated Saturday

Texas Rangers outfielder Carlos Tocci was activated from the disabled list on Saturday. Tocci pinch ran for Nomar Mazara in Saturday's game, and nearly cost the Rangers a chance to win the game with some overly aggressive running in the ninth innings. The Rangers had to activate Tocci, who had run out of rehab time, […]

Giancarlo Stanton Smashes Home Run In Baltimore

After Miguel Andujar’s two-run home run put the New York Yankees up in the second inning of Saturday afternoon’s matchup against the Baltimore Orioles, another home run increased the lead. It came an inning later off the bat of Giancarlo Stanton, who’s still trying to find his way with the Yankees. The 28-year-old stepped up […]

Trey Mancini Stuck In Frigid Slump

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/outfielder Trey Mancini continued to be mired in a slump on Saturday, going 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts. The 26-year-old is hitting a lowly .127 with just two extra-base hits in his last 15 games. After breaking out as a solid fantasy option in 2017, Mancini has been disappointing for […]

Adam Jones Continues Hot Streak Saturday

Baltimore Orioles center fielder Adam Jones continued to perform on Saturday, going 3-for-5 with two singles, a solo home run, and two RBI. Jones has been on fire lately, hitting .392 in his last seven games. He has proven to be a consistent fantasy option again this season, batting .284 with 10 HR and 28 […]

Seuly Matias Hits Two More Bombs

Kansas City Royals top prospect outfielder Seuly Matias smashed his 16th and 17th home runs of the season for Single-A Lexington on Saturday. Matias now leads the minors in homers. He's hitting just .245 on the season, but his power is undeniable. Tagged as the No. 3 prospect in KC's system, Matias isn't expected to […]

Rosell Herrera Claimed By Royals

The Kansas City Royals have claimed outfielder Rosell Herrera from the Cincinnati Reds after he was waived. Herrera was placed on the 40-man roster and assigned to Triple-A. To make room for the pickup, pitcher Nate Karns was moved to the 60-day disabled list. Herrera was a top Rockies prospect in 2014 when he was […]

Jorge Soler Hits Heroic Homer

Kansas City Royals outfielder Jorge Soler smashed a solo shot in the eighth inning of a tied ballgame on Saturday to give the Royals the lead that would eventually seal the game. Soler had been in a funk for a bit recently, but he appears to have fought his way through it to some extent. […]

Austin Meadows Bashes Fifth Homer On Saturday

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Austin Meadows went 1-for-3 with a solo home run against the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday. The dinger came at a crucial time in the game, tying the score at two in the top of the ninth inning. It was Meadows' fifth homer in 51 big-league plate appearances, as he refuses to […]

Josh Reddick to Begin Rehab Assignment on Sunday

Houston Astros outfielder Josh Reddick (leg) is expected to start for Double-A Corpus Christi on Sunday. Reddick will play at least a few games there then be evaluated and potentially activated soon after. He has been sidelined due to a staph infection in his left leg since May 21. Expect Reddick back in the lineup […]

Bradley Zimmer Returns to Indians Lineup Saturday

Cleveland Indians center fielder Bradley Zimmer (ribs) returns to the starting lineup on Saturday. Zimmer was on the disabled list since May 9 and hopefully made a full recovery from his nagging rib injury. Zimmer has been a disappointing fantasy player thus far, although he only has less than a season's worth of plate appearances […]

Orioles-Yankees Game Facing Rain Delay Saturday

MLB.com writer Bryan Hoch reports that the Saturday game between the Orioles and the Yankees will be delayed due to the threat of inclement weather. This is not the first time this season the two teams have dealt with rain delays and postponements, so fantasy owners in daily leagues might want to consider swapping out […]

Michael Taylor Back in Lineup Saturday

After getting the day off on Friday following the activation of Brian Goodwin from the disabled list, Nationals outfielder Michael Taylor is starting in center field on Saturday and is batting sixth in the lineup. Taylor is currently batting a career-low .203 this season while also posting a career-worst .626 OPS, but he is also […]

Charlie Blackmon Triples In Two Runs

Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon has had an up-and-down season so far as he rocketed out of the gates before cooling way down for the first half of May. He’s now back at it, hitting safely in nine straight games after popping a two-run triple in the second inning on Friday night. Blackmon’s still having […]

Noel Cuevas – Pinch Hit Hero

Colorado Rockies rookie outfielder Noel Cuevas hasn’t gotten nearly as much fanfare or love from the fantasy community as fellow late call-up David Dahl, but he’s actually been the more productive of the two youngsters. Maintaining an average of .308, Cuevas has proven himself to be a reliable on-base threat, and he’s been especially successful […]

Dustin Fowler Plates Four Friday, Starting To Heat Up

Oakland Athletics outfielder Dustin Fowler went 3-for-5 with a single and two home runs in Fridays' 16-0 win over the Royals. The 23-year-old hit a solo shot in the third inning and a three-run bomb in the ninth. Fowler had a slow start to the season and has a .216/.281/.451 slash line to show for […]

Daniel Descalso Shines In Leadoff Spot

Arizona Diamondbacks utility man Daniel Descalso went 1-for-3 with a home run, a walk, two RBI and two runs in the Diamondbacks win over the Marlins. Descalso was moved to the leadoff spot following the demotion of David Peralta. He will likely split leadoff duties with Jarrod Dyson until someone can run away with the […]

Carlos Gonzalez Is On Fire

Colorado Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez has had a public fall from grace over the last two seasons as age and injuries have caught up with the once-great hitter, but he can still go on some serious hot streaks. He’s in the midst of one of those right now. Gonzalez is 11 for his last 22 […]

Whit Merrifield Closes In On More Positions

Kansas City Royals second baseman/right fielder/center fielder/first baseman Whit Merrifield had a solid night on Friday as he went 3-for-3 while the team was getting blown out by the Athletics. He also did it as the team’s center fielder, bringing him one start away from qualification at that position in most fantasy leagues. Saturday, he’s […]

Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 10

One man's trash is another man's treasure. This is what I tell myself when I'm bidding $6 for Ryan Braun in an Ottoneu league where I need OF help or adding Zack Godley to a pitching staff that has underperformed. These players aren't without warts and could never turn back to top form this season, […]
