Trey Mancini Likely To Be In Lineup Wednesday

Ender Inciarte Has Two RBI In Extra-Inning Loss

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ender Inciarte was part of a hitting attack that saw them score four runs in the ninth to tie the game against Cincinnati on April 24. Inciarte went 2-for-6 with two RBI. It was not enough, though, as Atlanta fell 9-7 in 12 innings. The outfielder has brought his average up to […]

Andrew Benintendi’s Woes Against Lefties Continue

Boston Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi earned the golden sombrero Tuesday night against the Blue Jays. His night ended going 0-for-5 with four strikeouts and a flyout. In 14 at-bats, Benintendi is hitting a woeful .071 against left-handed pitching, which does not include three strikeouts Tuesday night. This isn’t Benintendi having a bad day. He […]

Kyle Schwarber Connects For Two Home Runs Versus The Indians

Chicago Cubs outfielder Kyle Schwarber hit two more home runs on Tuesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Schwarber has had a strong rebound season so far in 2018. The slugger finished 2-for-5 Tuesday. He now has six home runs to go along with 16 RBI and a .306 batting average. He should be owned in all […]

Jason Heyward Starting To Heat Up

Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward is beginning to heat up. Heyward went 2-for-4 Tuesday with a run scored. Heyward now has four straight multi-hit games in a row and has hit in five straight games. Heyward has been a hard player to trust, but now is as good as a time as there will ever […]

Ian Happ Gets Three Hits On Tuesday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ went 3-for-4 Tuesday evening. Happ hit a home run and picked up a pair of singles. It was a game that Happ really needed, as he’s been off to a slow start. Happ is off to a slow start but should still be rostered as a bench option due to […]

Delino DeShields Will Stay In Leadoff Role

Texas Rangers center fielder Delino DeShields will continue to get run at the top of the order after returning to the lineup. The 25-year-old has only appeared in four games on the season thanks to injury, but the Rangers have a lot of faith that his speed and contact skills will make him an ideal place […]

Tommy Pham Returns to Lineup on Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tommy Pham has returned to the lineup after missing a few games with a groin injury. He's starting in center and batting second as the Cardinals take on the Mets and starter Zack Wheeler on Tuesday. Pham was hitting .318 with two home runs, five RBI and five stolen bases prior […]

Odubel Herrera Absent from Phillies Lineup on Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies center fielder Odubel Herrera is getting the day off on Tuesday as manager Gabe Kapler looks to fill his lineup with righties against left-handed Robbie Ray.

Rafael Bautista And Adrian Sanchez Called Up, Matt Reynolds Sent Down

Washington Nationals outfielder Rafael Bautista and infielder Adrian Sanchez have been called up from Triple-A Syracuse, and infielder Matt Reynolds has been sent down. Relief pitcher Shawn Kelley (elbow) was placed on the 10-day disabled list in a corresponding move. Bautista was recently named the International League Player of the Week and batted .429 with a […]

George Springer Struggling Early Against Right-Handers

Houston Astros outfielder George Springer heads into the final week of April looking to get his season clicking. After a slow start to begin the year, he has come on lately and takes a six-game hitting streak heading into Tuesday night's matchup against the Angels. Part of the reason for Springer's less than stellar numbers […]

Marwin Gonzalez Starting To Slowly Heat Up

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Marwin Gonzalez is slowly beginning to come out of his early-season slump, going 8-for-24 (.333) with six runs batted in over his last six games. The versatile Gonzalez has raised his batting average 60 points over the last week up to .215 and is hitting the ball with more authority. Gonzalez last […]

Kendrys Morales, Randal Grichuk Sitting On Tuesday

For the fantasy owners of Toronto Blue Jays designated hitter Kendrys Morales and outfielder Randal Grichuk, make sure they’re on your bench on Tuesday because they’ll be riding the pine for the real game. For Morales, it’s likely just a routine day off after he just returned from a hamstring injury on Friday. For Grichuk, […]

Salvador Perez and Alex Gordon Activated Tuesday

The Kansas City Royals activated both catcher Salvador Perez (knee) and outfielder Alex Gordon (hip) Tuesday. Paulo Orlando and Cam Gallagher have been optioned to Triple-A to make room. Perez will have the most fantasy value of the two, as he should hit in the middle of a Royals lineup that has shown some signs […]

Kris Bryant Won’t Play Tuesday

Chicago Cubs third baseman Kris Bryant (eye) will have Tuesday evening off. Bryant was hit in the face Sunday and suffered a laceration above his eye. Bryant is “fine,” according to manager Joe Maddon, but the Cubs wanted to give Bryant an extra day off. Bryant took batting practice Tuesday and could play Wednesday. Infielder Tommy […]

Jayson Werth and Roenis Elias Join Rainiers

The Seattle Mariners made a pair of roster moves on Tuesday morning, as they have added outfielder Jayson Werth and pitcher Roenis Elias to their Triple-A affiliate, the Tacoma Rainiers.

Trayce Thompson Gets Start In Right Field Tuesday

With Chicago White Sox outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) placed on the 10-day disabled list Tuesday, outfielder Trayce Thompson will start in right field and bat seventh. Thompson is 2-for-8 since coming back to the White Sox off waivers, and that includes one home run. He is worth monitoring in AL-only leagues but is best suited […]

Nick Delmonico Out Of Lineup Tuesday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Nick Delmonico will rest Tuesday versus the Seattle Mariners. Leury Garcia will be in left field Tuesday evening and bat eighth. Delmonico is off to a slow start with a .241 batting average and .643 OPS. He can be avoided in all formats for now.

Alex Kirilloff Recovering Nicely From Tommy John Surgery

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Alex Kirilloff (elbow) hit his third home run of the year for Class A Cedar Rapids on Monday. Kirilloff, 20, was the team’s first-round pick in 2016, but missed all of last year due to Tommy John surgery. Kirilloff swings from the left side of the plate and has been a […]

Alex Verdugo Showing More Power In 2018

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect Alex Verdugo hit his fourth home run of the year for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday. Verdugo is already one of the best hitters in the minor leagues, but he has added power to his game early on in 2018. Verdugo struggled in his brief appearance with the big league […]

Avisail Garcia Placed On Disabled List Tuesday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day disabled list with a strained right hamstring.

Leury Garcia offers more upside […]

Melky Cabrera Signs With Cleveland

The Cleveland Indians signed free-agent outfielder Melky Cabrera to a minor league contract. Cabrera was decent last year, splitting time between the Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals while slashing .285/.324/.423 with 17 home runs and 85 RBI. He'll spend some time in the minor leagues to work his way back into playing shape, […]
