Myles Straw Hitting .294 In June

Houston Astros outfielder Myles Straw and the rest of his teammates will travel to Boston to open up a series with the Red Sox beginning Tuesday. The 26-year-old has earned consistent at-bats due to injuries and his ability to patrol center field. Recently Straw has picked up some hits along the way, going 11-for-35 (.314) […]

Mike Trout Likely To Ramp Up Workouts Soon

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (calf) was "pleased" with his workout on Monday. The former MVP also reported that he "intends to begin jogging soon," a good sign as he continues to work his way back from a Grade 2 calf strain. The slugger has been on the shelf since mid-May and is expected […]

Joc Pederson Remains Sidelined With Sore Back

Chicago Cubs outfielder Joc Pederson (back) remains sidelined on Monday night versus the San Diego Padres. Pederson exited Saturday's contest early with lower back tightness and rested on Sunday afternoon. Pederson got off to a slow start this season, but heated up in May. The slugger has been in a bit of a slump lately, […]

Jake Marisnick Returns From Injured List

The Chicago Cubs have activated outfielder Jake Marisnick (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list on Monday. The backup outfielder has been sidelined since May 11 with a right hamstring strain. Marisnick was having a solid season before the injury and is hitting .264 with four home runs, 14 RBI and a pair of stolen bases. […]

Austin Meadows Drives In Two In Win Sunday

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Austin Meadows went 2-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored in a 7-1 win over the Rangers on Sunday. Meadows has been on fire at the plate recently, slashing .298/.412/.649 with five home runs, 22 RBI, and 11 runs scored over his last 15 games. This recent surge brings his […]

Sam Haggerty Transferred To 60-Day IL On Monday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Sam Haggerty (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Monday, according to Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times. Haggerty was placed on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation on May 25, but apparently this issue is significant enough to keep him sidelined until at least the end of […]

Byron Buxton To Begin Rehab Assignment Tuesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (hip) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, according to Dustin Morse of the Minnesota Twins. He's been sidelined since the beginning of May with a hip strain, but it seems like he could be back with the Twins pretty soon barring any setbacks. Prior to […]

Jarred Kelenic Optioned To Triple-A Monday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jarred Kelenic was optioned back to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday, according to Corey Brock of The Athletic. Kelenic had been hitless in his last 39 at-bats, and is 8-for-83 with a 28 percent strikeout rate over 23 games. It sounds like the move was made to allow Kelenic to play under less […]

Aaron Judge Reaches Base Four Times

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge reached base safely four times in Sunday's loss to the Boston Red Sox. Judge singled in the first inning and came around to score, collected another base hit, and later grounded into a fielder's choice, producing an RBI in the process. The 29-year-old also drew a pair of walks. […]

LaMonte Wade Jr. Hits Leadoff Homer Sunday

San Francisco Giants first baseman/outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr. had another nice day at the plate in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Cubs, going 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks, and two strikeouts. Wade Jr. got the game started for the Giants by taking a Kyle Hendricks fastball to the opposite field just over […]

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton went 2-for-4, including his 13th home run of the season, in the Angels 9-5 loss to the Mariners on Sunday. Upton has turned on the power over the last week, popping three home runs over his last four games. The veteran has seemingly shaken loose from hitting .188 over […]

Alex Verdugo Launches Long Home Run Sunday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo got the scoring started Sunday night, launching a very long home run off Yankees starting pitcher Domingo German. It was Verdugo's eight long-ball of the year, and his only hit in five at-bats in the game. Verdugo has been a very solid contributor all season long, and fantasy managers […]

Marwin Gonzalez Homers Sunday

Boston Red Sox utility man Marwin Gonzalez hit his second home run of the year Sunday night, a two-run shot off Yankees reliever Lucas Luetge. Gonzalez has been resurgent over his last three games, going 4-for-11 after only recording one hit in his previous 10 games. Gonzalez seemed on the verge of falling out of […]

Hunter Renfroe Reaches Base Three Times

Boston Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe reached base three times against the Yankees Sunday night, going 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored. Renfroe has been producing at a torrid pace over the last month with a .324/.359/.577 slash line over his last thirty games, and he's only been better and better in that […]

Ryan Mountcastle Continues To Heat Up Sunday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/outfielder Ryan Mountcastle continued to produce at the plate in Sunday's 18-5 win over the Indians, going 3-for-5 with two singles, a double, two RBI, and a strikeout. The 24-year-old started the season off very slowly but has been on fire lately and now has a .254/.282/.447 slash line with eight home […]

Anthony Santander Plates Three Sunday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander played his part in Sunday's 18-5 trouncing of the Indians, going 3-for-5 with two singles, a double, and three RBI. The 26-year-old has started to pick things up since returning from the injured list with an ankle sprain and now owns a .269/.297/.420 slash line with three home runs and […]

Ketel Marte Leads Offense With Two Hits Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Ketel Marte led the team on offense on Sunday, finishing 2-for-4 with a strikeout in a 2-0 loss to the Brewers. After Corbin Burnes had retired the first 10 batters of the game in order, Marte broke through with a single to right field in the top of the fourth inning. His […]

Cedric Mullins Homers Again Sunday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins stayed red hot in Sunday's 18-5 win over the Indians, going 3-for-4 with a single, a double, a solo home run, two RBI, and two walks. The leadoff blast was Mullins' third HR in the last two games. The 26-year-old has hit well overall this season but has been on […]

Donovan Walton Fills the Box Score Sunday

Seattle Mariners utility man Donovan Walton had a big game Sunday out of the nine-spot in the order. Walton went 2-for-3 with his second career home run, a double, a walk, two RBI, and three runs scored. Walton has been in the starting lineup on a regular basis since mid-May, and he's been heating up […]

Brandon Nimmo Recovering From Injury

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo started swinging a bat again on Sunday. Nimmo has been sidelined since May 5th with a finger injury. It doesn't sound like the Mets will rush to get the outfielder back in the lineup. Through 21 games, Nimmo was batting .318 with one home run and eight RBI. Fantasy […]

Tyler Naquin Could Return On Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (hamstring) could return for Tuesday's series opener against Milwaukee. Naquin left Sunday's matchup against St. Louis with left hamstring tightness, but it appears that he will be good to go with a few day's rest. The veteran is batting .257 to go along with 38 RBI, 20 runs, 11 dingers, […]

Nick Senzel Expected Back In Mid-July

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel (knee) is expected to return in mid-July. Senzel had surgery over a week ago to address inflammation in his left knee and landed on the 10-day injured list as a result. However, with a .261 average, fantasy managers outside of dynasty formats can safely drop him without looking back.

Jesse Winker Has Another Three-Homer Game On Sunday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jesse Winker had another huge game for his team on Sunday. He went 3-for-4 with three homers and six RBI in an 8-7 win over the St. Louis Cardinals. Winker is putting together a breakout season, hitting .350 with 17 homers, 44 runs, and 37 RBI over 200 at-bats. He has been […]
