As astute fantasy managers, we are always scouting the next player ready to break out as he approaches his prime.

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that no further testing is currently scheduled for first baseman/outfielder Trey Mancini (elbow), per MASNsports.com's Roch Kubatko.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena went 0-for-4 with one RBI in a 7-2 win over the Royals on Thursday. He has been struggling at the plate over his last seven games, slashing .154/.281/.231 with two steals, two RBI and five runs scored in that span.

Estevan Florial Optioned To Triple-A

New York Yankees outfielder Estevan Florial was optioned back to the minors following the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Toronto Blue Jays. Florial went 1-for-3 with a double in the contest. With Giancarlo Stanton (quad) expected to come off the injured list on Friday, Florial was likely sent down to make room for […]

Aaron Judge Crushes 13th Homer

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer, a sacrifice fly, and a walk in Thursday's win over the Toronto Blue Jays. Judge tied the game in the third inning with a long home run, which traveled 440 feet at an exit velocity of 112.2 MPH. The slugger later added an […]

Luis Robert Transferred To 60-Day List

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert (hip) has been transferred to the 60-day injured list. Robert has been out of commission while dealing with a hip flexor strain, and it's bad news for fantasy managers who were benefiting from his .316 batting average. The 23-year-old is eligible to return in July, although it is reasonable […]

AJ Pollock Could Get A Few Rehab Games

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock (hamstring) may play a few rehab games before getting activated, according to manager Dave Roberts. Pollock has been out for a few weeks with a strained left hamstring, and while he was eligible to come off the 10-day injured list a few days ago, fantasy managers may not see […]

Garrett Hampson Swipes Tenth Bag

Colorado Rockies second baseman Garrett Hampson continued showing off his speed in Thursday nightcap against the New York Mets, swiping his tenth bag of the season. He also went 1-for-3 with a double and a walk in the contest. Hampson's bat leaves plenty to be desired, as he's only slashing .232/.299/.429 on the year, but […]

Estevan Florial In Lineup Thursday

New York Yankees outfielder Estevan Florial is in the lineup for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Toronto Blue Jays. Florial was recalled from the minors on Thursday ahead of the contest and will get the start in center field, batting eighth against Blue Jays' lefty Robbie Ray. The 23-year-old is a must-add […]

Jake Fraley Could Rejoin Team During Current Homestand

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jake Fraley has been doing well during a rehab assignment at Triple-A Tacoma and is a candidate to join the team during the current homestand, according to manager Scott Servais. Fraley only had 18 plate appearances before going on the injured list on April 7, but would appear to warrant consistent at-bats […]

Dominic Smith Hit By Pitch In Forearm

New York Mets outfielder Dominic Smith (knee, forearm) started Thursday evening's game against the Rockies despite his sore knee, and went 0-for-2 with a hit-by-pitch. Smith was drilled in his left forearm by Antonio Senzatela, and stayed in the game to run the bases. He was lifted later in a double switch. It is possible […]

Cameron Maybin Extends Hitless Streak To 26 At-Bats

New York Mets outfielder Cameron Maybin continued his season of attrition Thursday afternoon against the Rockies, extending his hitless streak to 26 at-bats to start his Mets career. That 26-game streak ties the Mets record for most hitless at-bats to start a tenure with the club. Fantasy managers may have seen Maybin as a solid […]

Billy McKinney Doubles, Scores Twice

New York Mets outfielder Billy McKinney played both ends of a doubleheader Thursday, seeing plenty of action in his first day with the club. In the nightcap, McKinney reached base twice, going 1-for-2 with a double and a walk. He came around to score on both occasions. McKinney batted fourth and third in the two […]

Odubel Herrera Scores Twice In Win Over Marlins

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Odubel Herrera went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in a win over the Marlins on Thursday. Herrera has a stranglehold on the Phillies center field job as he's been hot with the bat and the glove lately, robbing a homer in this series. With the lumber, Herrera is batting […]

George Springer Does Outfield Drills On Thursday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (quad) was able to get through some outfield drills on Thursday. Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo said this was the best that Springer has felt since injuring his quad. He has only appeared in four games with the team this season, so hopefully Springer won't be sidelined for too […]

Tyler O'Neill Activated Off Injured List

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (finger) has been activated off the 10-day injured list on Thursday. He ended up missing a little less than two weeks due to a fractured finger. John Nogowski has been optioned to the minors in a corresponding move. Before the injury, O'Neill was hitting .250/.290/.530 with eight homers in […]

Nick Castellanos Sitting Out Thursday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Castellanos (rest) is sitting out of Thursday's seven inning matchup against the Washington Nationals. This is a routine rest day for the slugging outfielder in the second game of a double header. Tyler Naquin will slide over to right field versus right-hander Stephen Strasburg on Thursday. Naquin won't be a reliable […]

Harold Ramirez Has Big Day Thursday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Harold Ramirez went 2-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored, and two RBI in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Detroit Tigers. Ramirez was batting cleanup in this one and made sure he delivered. He is now hitting .265 with two home runs and eight RBI since getting called up in early May. […]

Eddie Rosario Homers Thursday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Eddie Rosario went 2-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run, and three RBI in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Detroit Tigers.

Garrett Cooper Pinch Hits On Thursday

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper (oblique) played in Thursday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Cooper appeared as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning, taking an at bat against Jose Alvarado in place of Corey Dickerson. After his at bat, Cooper remained in the game to play right field. In his one at bat, […]

Starling Marte Traveling With The Team To Boston

Miami Marlins outfielder Starling Marte (rib) is traveling with the team from Miami to Boston for the weekend series against the Red Sox. While no official move has been made just yet, it clearly implies that Marte will be able to play in the weekend series. Marte hasn't played in exactly a month, as he […]

Bryan Reynolds Homers In Loss To Cubs

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds went 2-for-3 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in a 5-3 loss to the Cubs on Thursday.
