Byron Buxton "Feeling A Little Bit Better"

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (back) left Saturday's meeting with the Tigers because of spasms. Skipper Rocco Baldelli provided an update after the game, stating that Buxton has dealt with the injury for most of the year and has worn a wrap. Fortunately, the veteran is already "feeling a little bit better," although fantasy managers […]

Byron Buxton Exits Early With Back Spasms

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (back) exited early from Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers due to back spasms. He went 0-for-3 with a strikeout before leaving. The severity of Buxton's injury is unclear, and he is considered day-to-day. Willi Castro replaced Buxton in Saturday's game. The 29-year-old has struggled this season, slashing .207/.305/.442 with […]

David Peralta Gets Rest Day On Saturday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta is absent from the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Houston Astros. The veteran outfielder appears to be getting a routine rest day here. The 35-year-old has been decent, slashing .265/.306/.388 with four home runs and 26 RBI in 49 games. In his absence, Jason Heyward will cover […]

Ian Happ Launches Two Homers In Win

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ came ready to play for the London Series versus the St. Louis Cardinals. He blasted a home run off veteran right-hander Adam Wainwright in the second inning. He smacked another big fly a couple of innings later to record his 11th career multi-homer performance. The 28-year-old has a .268/.386/.430 slash […]

Will Brennan Out Again On Saturday

Cleveland Guardians outfielder Will Brennan (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Saturday's meeting with the Milwaukee Brewers. The 25-year-old injured his shoulder while making a catch during Wednesday's contest versus the Oakland Athletics and has been on the shelf since. Fortunately, Brennan indicated he would be back by Sunday, at the latest, for the […]

Esteury Ruiz Dropped To Ninth In The Lineup

Oakland Athletics outfielder Esteury Ruiz has been dropped to ninth in the batting order for Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This is a rather interesting development. Ruiz had Friday off and is now batting ninth against Jose Berrios and the Blue Jays while veteran Tony Kemp, who's batting .180, is serving as the […]

Jared Walsh Optioned To Triple-A Salt Lake On Saturday

Los Angeles Angels infielder/outfielder Jared Walsh was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday. Walsh missed the beginning of the season while dealing with neurological symptoms, which he was getting treatment for, but has struggled mightily at the dish since his IL activation on May 20. He's slashing just .119/.244/.224 with one home run and […]

Julio Rodriguez To Compete In The 2023 All-Star Home Run Derby

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez will compete in the 2023 All-Star Home Run Derby. Seattle is hosting the All-Star festivities this season so it makes sense that the hometown Rodriguez would throw his hat in the ring. He put on an absolute show in the contest last season in Los Angeles, mashing 81 homers, but […]

Giancarlo Stanton Dropped To Fifth In The Lineup

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton has been dropped to fifth in the batting order for Saturday's contest against the Texas Rangers. Stanton is mired in a horrible slump for pretty much the entire season but his last 15 games are particularly bad. He's slashing just .096/.190/.231 with two home runs over that span. […]

Aaron Judge Has A Torn Ligament In His Toe

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (toe) told reporters on Saturday that he's dealing with a torn ligament in his toe and not a sprain. This news complicates matters for the Yankees star, who said he still has pain when he walks. He was initially diagnosed with a sprain, but a torn ligament is a […]

Cedric Mullins Back From Injured List, Hitting Leadoff Saturday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins (groin) was activated from the injured list on Saturday and is immediately back in center field and in the leadoff spot to face Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryce Miller. Mullins' injury was never considered very serious to begin win, and he played in three minor-league rehab games before rejoining Baltimore this […]

Jordan Walker Feeling Better, Back In The Lineup

St. Louis Cardinals rookie outfielder Jordan Walker (illness) has returned to the team's starting lineup on Saturday for the first of two games in London against the division-rival Chicago Cubs.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (Late Slate - 6/24/23): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

Most of the action is done by Saturday night, but we still have four games sharing the stage with the College World Series final series.
