For as different as the 2020 fantasy season has been, one thing hasn't changed: fantasy owners love top prospects.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Castellanos went 2-for-5 with a double, a homer, two runs, and three RBI in an 8-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mallex Smith went 2-for-4 with an RBI and stolen base in Friday's loss to the Rockies.

Nick Senzel Removed With Groin Tightness

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Senzel left Friday's game versus the Brewers early after experiencing tightness in his left groin. He was lifted after his third at-bat in the fourth inning, but since the team jumped out to a large lead early, it may have been precautionary. Senzel led off in the contest and recorded a […]

Braves and Phillies Game Postponed Due To Weather

Friday's game between the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies has been postponed due to inclement weather. The teams will play a doubleheader on Sunday. Owners in daily lineup formats and DFS players should remove any Braves and Phillies in their lineups.

Joey Gallo Absent From Rangers Lineup On Friday

Texas Rangers outfielder Joey Gallo is absent from the lineup on Friday against the Angels due to a sore right wrist. This is the same wrist he had surgery on in 2019, but apparently the issue is not related. As a result, this should not be a cause for any concern at least at this […]

Dominic Smith In Lineup At First Base For Mets On Friday

New York Mets first baseman/outfielder Dominic Smith is in the Mets lineup on Friday against righty Humberto Mejia and the Marlins. Smith is batting sixth and makes for a great contrarian option at first base in DFS leagues on Friday. In 25 plate appearances so far this season, Smith is hitting an underwhelming .222, but […]

Kyle Tucker Leading Off Vs Athletics

Houston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker will hit leadoff on Friday against Chris Bassitt and the Oakland Athletics.

New York Mets third baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil (back) returned to the Mets lineup Friday against the Marlins. He will be batting second and playing left field.

George Springer Out Of Lineup On Friday

Houston Astros outfielder George Springer (wrist) is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Oakland Athletics.

Joey Gallo Out Of Lineup On Friday

Texas Rangers outfielder Joey Gallo (wrist) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Gallo has a sore wrist that he was able to play through on Thursday. It certainly doesn't sound like anything major for Gallo, who is slashing .250/.362/.550 with three home runs and eight RBI on […]

Kyle Tucker May Be Arriving

Coming into this season, Kyle Tucker was widely viewed as an intriguing outfielder due to his prospect pedigree and power-speed profile while hitting in a stacked Astros' lineup. Tucker slashed .266/.354/.555 with 34 home runs and 30 stolen bases in 536 plate appearances at Triple-A last season, leaving fantasy players drooling over his upside. Tucker […]
