Ketel Marte Hits Second Homer In Last Seven Games

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Ketel Marte went 1-for-4 with his fourth home run of the season in a 7-6 loss to the Mets on Wednesday. After missing over a month with a hamstring strain, Marte has slowly begun to heat up at the plate since his return. Over his last seven games now, Marte is slashing […]

DJ Stewart Hits Sixth Home Run Of Season Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder DJ Stewart played his part in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Twins. Stewart went 2-for-3 with a single, a two-run home run (his sixth HR of the season), and a walk. Despite the nice game, Stewart's slash line on the season remains a disappointing .207/.329/.388, leaving him with little fantasy value at […]

Ryan Mountcastle Hits Three-Run Homer Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/outfielder Ryan Mountcastle came up clutch in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Twins, going 2-for-4 with a single, a three-run home run, and a strikeout. Mountcastle put a seventh-inning Alex Colome fastball just over the center-field wall to give the O's a 6-1 lead. The 24-year-old, who started the season poorly, has […]

Corey Dickerson Hits A Home Run On Wednesday

Miami Marlins outfielder Corey Dickerson hit his second home run of the season in Wednesday's loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. Dickerson ended up 2-for-4 with the homer, a single, a run scored, and an RBI. He almost had a second home run, but it ended up being an out at the warning track. Dickerson […]

Kyle Schwarber Exits Early On Wednesday

Washington Nationals outfielder Kyle Schwarber (knee) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Manager Dave Martinez noted that Schwarber left after his knee locked up on him after his diving attempt to catch a foul ball. The slugging lefty outfielder was able to walk off the field under his own […]

Kevin Pillar Picks Up Two Hits In First Start Back

New York Mets outfielder Kevin Pillar was back in the starting lineup Wednesday for the first time since being hit in the face with a Jacob Webb fastball, and he went 2-for-5 with a run scored in the contest. Pillar has looked very capable since returning, and he stands to garner most of the playing […]

Dominic Smith Reaches Base Four Times Wednesday

New York Mets outfielder Dominic Smith reached base four times Wednesday against the Diamondbacks, going 3-for-4 with a walk and three singles. Smith has now reached twice in his last three games, and in four of his last six. After a difficult start of the year, Smith is breaking out in a big way, slashing […]

Randal Grichuk Slugs Two Homers In Win

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Randal Grichuk swatted a pair of long balls on Wednesday as his team went on to beat the Marlins 6-5. He finished the game going 2-for-5 with both of his solo shots coming off Pablo Lopez as he now sits with 11 homers and 41 RBI on the season. Grichuk is […]

Kyle Lewis Receives Second Opinion

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis (knee) received a second opinion on Wednesday, although the results haven't been made public. The 25-year-old landed on the 10-day injured list a few days ago with a right meniscus tear, which is unfortunate considering how well he has played this season. Depending on how well the additional exam went, […]

AJ Pollock Likely To Be Activated By Friday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) may be activated ahead of Friday's matchup against the Braves, according to skipper Dave Roberts. Since the middle of May, the veteran has been out of the lineup because of a nagging hamstring issue. Although he isn't guaranteed to play, he will be traveling with the team, which […]

Mike Trout No Longer Wearing A Boot

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (calf) is moving in the right direction. The former MVP is no longer wearing a walking boot, a good sign as he continues to work his way back from a Grade 2 calf strain. The slugger has been out since Mid-May but isn't expected back until July. Nonetheless, fantasy […]

Gilberto Celestino Making Major League Debut Wednesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Gilberto Celestino is making his major league debut against the Baltimore Orioles Wednesday. Celestino was called up in a corresponding move with Rob Refsnyder's placement on the seven-day injured list. The 22-year-old, who hit .250 with five doubles, two homers, seven RBI, and 10 runs scored for Minnesota's Double-A affiliate, was ranked […]

Tommy Pham And Ha-Seong Kim Involved In Collision

San Diego Padres outfielder Tommy Pham (face) and infielder Ha-Seong Kim (head) both exited the game Wednesday against the Chicago Cubs after colliding in the outfield. The two players banged heads going full speed in the fourth inning and spent a considerable amount of time lying on the field. Per the postgame comments, it appears […]

AJ Pollock Recovered From Injury

Los Angeles Dodgers center fielder AJ Pollock will likely be activated from the team's injured list on Friday. Pollock has been out of the lineup since May 15th with a strained hamstring. His rehab assignment took place in low Single-A ball with Rancho Cucamonga. Before going down with the hamstring injury, the center fielder batted […]

Rob Refsnyder Heading To Seven-Day Concussion Injured List

Minnesota Twins infielder/outfielder Rob Refsnyder (head) was placed on the seven-day injured list with a concussion Wednesday. Refsnyder was scratched from Tuesday's lineup due to a sore quad resulting from a crash into the outfield wall, though it's unclear if the concussion is related to that occurrence. Hopefully, the 30-year-old won't be sidelined for too […]

J.D. Davis Experiences Another Setback

New York Mets third baseman J.D. Davis (hand) will not go on a rehab assignment for at least a few more days, per manager Luis Rojas. Davis was expected to play in rehab games early this week, though the Mets pushed it back after he experienced some discomfort while swinging. Davis hasn't played since May […]

Tyrone Taylor Smashes Two Solo Home Runs In Loss

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Tyrone Taylor went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Tigers. The two teams combined for nine homers on the night, and Taylor joined in the barrage in his first game since returning to the big-league roster. On the season, the 27-year-old is slashing .218/.307/.449 with five […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Homers, Swipes Two Bases Tuesday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. went 3-for-4 with four runs scored, two stolen bases, and a home run in Tuesday's loss to the Washington Nationals.

Trent Grisham Takes Live Batting Practice

San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham (heel) was taking batting practice on the field ahead of his team's scheduled contest against the Chicago Cubs Tuesday. It's Grisham's first time facing live pitching since May 21. The speedy outfielder was initially slated to return on Tuesday, though he technically isn't eligible to come off the injured […]

Juan Soto Goes Yard Tuesday

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto had a big night at the plate in Tuesday's 11-6 victory over the Atlanta Braves. Soto was 1-for-11 coming into the contest but rattled off a three-hit game, including a two-run single and a two-run homer. The slugger's long ball left the bat at an exit velocity of 106.5 MPH […]

Anthony Santander Coasting Since His Return

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander has been great at the plate since returning from an ankle injury on May 21. He has recorded hits in 11 of his 12 games since his return. He slashed .341/.356/.568 overall through his 11 games in May. This has been particularly encouraging to see after Santander got off to […]

Tommy Pham Leading Off Again After Tuesday Homer

San Diego Padres outfielder Tommy Pham is back in the leadoff spot Wednesday against the Chicago Cubs after smacking his fourth homer the previous night. Pham is rolling with a seven-game hitting streak and is batting .319 over his past 12 contests with six extra-base hits. After a brutal April, the 33-year-old has lifted his […]

Joey Gallo Slugging Just .389 Through Two Months

Texas Rangers outfielder Joey Gallo hit seven home runs in May, but he's not making the type of hard contact we've seen him make in prior years. Gallo was extremely disappointing in 2020, when he slashed .181/.301/.378 with 10 home runs and 26 RBI over 57 games. This year so far, he's been looking like […]

Wil Myers Sitting Against Cubs On Wednesday

San Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers is absent from the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Tucupita Marcano is getting the start in right field and batting seventh in the game. Myers has been swinging a hot bat lately. He's riding a six-game hitting streak that has included two home runs. Over […]
