Billy Eppler's, Buck Showalter's Jobs Are Safe

New York Mets general manager Billy Eppler's and manager Buck Showalter's jobs are safe, according to a high-ranking team source. The Mets may still look to hire a president of baseball operations, but that's considered a long-term initiative that doesn't necessarily need to be implemented this offseason. The Mets blew a 10 1/2-game lead in […]

Phillies Sign Manager Rob Thomson To Two-Year Deal

The Philadelphia Phillies signed manager Rob Thomson to a two-year contract for the 2023 and 2024 seasons on Monday, according to president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski.

Trent Grisham Stays Hot In Game 3 Win

San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham stayed hot in the Game 3 win over the New York Mets on Sunday in the National League Wild-Card Series, going 2-for-2 with an RBI, run scored and a walk in the 6-0 shutout win. Grisham hit an embarrassing .184/.284/.341 with 17 home runs, 53 RBI, 58 runs scored […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/9/22): MLB DFS Lineups

And then there were two. Two left playing anyway. The Mets and Padres are the only teams that went all three games in the new Wild Card Round. For showdown mode on DraftKings, we pick one captain who costs 1.5x his normal salary, but he also scores 1.5x the points. We must have at least […]

George Springer Exits Early After Scary Collision

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer exited Saturday's game early against the Seattle Mariners after colliding with shortstop Bo Bichette in the field. The 33-year-old waved to the crowd as he was carted off the field. Springer crashed down to the field after his head hit Bichette's arm. The severity of Springer's injury is unknown, […]

Juan Yepez In Starting Lineup After Pinch-Hit Homer

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder/third baseman Juan Yepez is in the starting lineup Saturday, batting sixth and playing right field. Yepez is in for Dylan Carlson, in what is probably a case of playing the hot hand. Yepez had a clutch pinch-hit, two-out, two-run home run in game one to put the Cardinals up, and manager […]

Brandon Marsh In Phillies Lineup Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh is in the lineup Saturday for game two against the St. Louis Cardinals, playing center field and batting seventh. Marsh sat game one against lefty Jose Quintana, but will draw in tonight against righty Miles Mikolas. Matt Vierling will take a seat in what will likely be a platoon for […]

Starling Marte Moved Up To Second In Mets Batting Order

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte will jump to second in the order for game two against the San Diego Padres and starter Blake Snell. This move signifies that Buck Showalter and the Mets believe Marte is fully healthy, and he certainly appeared to be in game one, where he gathered two hits and two […]

David Peralta Starting On Bench In Game 2

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder David Peralta will remain on the bench for Game 2 of the American League Wild-Card Series on Saturday against the Cleveland Guardians and right-hander Triston McKenzie.

Chris Taylor To Take Live At-Bats Sunday, Monday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder Chris Taylor (neck) has responded well to a cortisone injection that he received this week and will take live at-bats on Sunday and Monday, according to skipper Dave Roberts. If he's able to come out of those sessions healthy, he'll likely be included on the roster for the National League Division […]

X-Rays Negative On George Springer's Wrist

X-rays came back negative on Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer's wrist after he was hit by a pitch in the Game 1 loss to the Seattle Mariners in the American League Wild-Card Series on Friday, according to manager John Schneider.

Wil Myers In Padres Lineup For Game 1, Brandon Drury Sitting

San Diego Padres outfielder/first baseman Wil Myers is in the starting lineup for Game 1 of their series against the New York Mets and Max Scherzer, playing first base and hitting sixth for the Friars. Myers starting means that trade-deadline acquisition Brandon Drury is on the bench for Game 1. Drury had been playing regularly […]

Starling Marte In Mets Lineup For Game 1

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte (finger) is set to return to the Mets lineup for Game 1 of their series against the San Diego Padres. Marte is batting sixth and playing right field for New York. The 33-year-old has been dealing with a fractured finger that held him out for a month. This is […]

Starling Marte Included On Wild-Card Roster

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte (finger) is on the team's Wild-Card Series roster against the San Diego Padres this weekend. The Mets have also included rookie catcher Francisco Alvarez and outfielder/first baseman Darin Ruf (neck), while third baseman Mark Vientos was left off the roster. The 33-year-old Marte has been out for a month […]

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Not On Wild-Card Roster

The Toronto Blue Jays left outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (hamstring) off their roster for the Wild-Card Series against the Seattle Mariners this weekend. Gurriel isn't healthy enough to play in the first round of the playoffs for the Jays. In Gurriel's place, the team decided to carry an extra catcher in Gabriel Moreno. It remains […]

Julio Rodriguez Hitting Leadoff In First Playoff Game

Seattle Mariners rookie outfielder Julio Rodriguez is starting in center field and is hitting leadoff in his first career postseason game on Friday in Game 1 of the American League Wild-Card Series against the Toronto Blue Jays and right-hander Alek Manoah. Rodriguez is a big reason why Seattle is back in the postseason in 2022, […]

Bryce Harper Hitting Cleanup In Game 1 Against Lefty

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper is serving as the designated hitter and is batting cleanup in Game 1 of the National League Wild-Card Series on Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals and left-hander Jose Quintana. Against southpaws in 2022, Harper hit .256/.348/.427 with only three of his 18 home runs while driving in 17 runs […]

Royals Fire Manager Mike Matheny

The Kansas City Royals fired manager Mike Matheny and pitching coach Cal Eldred following the regular season finale on Wednesday. The Royals finished the 2022 season 65-97. The team was plagued by poor pitching and struggles from young position players and a lackluster group of veterans. Owner John Sherman fired long-time front-office executive Dayton Moore […]

Reds Retain Manager David Bell For 2023 Season

The Cincinnati Reds will retain manager David Bell heading into the 2023 season next year, but they also let go of five of his assistant coaches after their 100-loss season. First base/baserunning coach Delino DeShields, hitting coach Alan Zinter, bullpen coach Lee Tunnell, advance scouting coach Cristian Perez and assistant coach Rolando Valles will not […]

Nolan Gorman Expected To Be On Wild-Card Roster

The St. Louis Cardinals have yet to finalize their roster for the Wild-Card Series against the Philadelphia Phillies for this weekend, but it's expected that when they do, rookie outfielder Nolan Gorman will be on it after Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) was not included.

Tyler O'Neill Not On Wild-Card Roster

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) is not being added to the team's roster for the Wild-Card Series this weekend against the Philadelphia Phillies, according to general manager John Mozeliak.

Arizona Diamondbacks rookie outfielder Corbin Carroll went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in the team's 4-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday to wrap up his first MLB season on a high note.
