Overvalued, Undervalued Trade Targets - Buy/Sell for Fantasy Baseball (Week 19)

Making the right trades can be crucial to championship success in fantasy baseball. It's almost as important as the draft, if not more. While most trades can have a significant impact on your fantasy team, it’s the deals where you acquire undervalued players and witness their production improve that can really tip the scales in […]

Jordan Lawlar Continues To Rebound From Slow Start

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Jordan Lawlar entered the season as arguably a top-10 prospect in baseball. As a slow start in Double-A continued through Memorial Day, there were growing concerns that Lawlar had taken an unexpected step backwards. On June 1, he entered play hitting just .199 with six home runs and striking out in 27% of his […]

Trea Turner Drops Even Further In Batting Order

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner is starting at shortstop and batting eighth in the lineup on Thursday against right-hander Johnny Cueto and the Miami Marlins in the series finale. Due to his struggles at the plate, Turner continues to fall further down the team's batting order. The 30-year-old has been one of the biggest busts […]

Junior Caminero Continues To Hit His Way Towards Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay Ray's infield prospect Junior Caminero has continued to be an offensive force where ever he goes. Whether it is the Australian Baseball League or Minor League Baseball in the United States, the 20-year-old always packs his bat. Over 358 plate appearances this season, Caminero is slashing .316/.377/.542 with 16 home runs and a […]

Jordan Lawlar Hits 14th Home Run

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop prospect Jordan Lawlar hit his 14th home run of the season in a 2-for-5 showing for Double-A Amarillo. While he started the season cold, he has rounded back to top-prospect form. Since May 30, Lawlar is slashing .302/.393/.553 with nine home runs, 25 RBI, 49 runs, and 16 stolen bases in 44 […]

Cardinals Deliver on Seller Status: Jordan Montgomery, Jack Flaherty, Jordan Hicks, and Paul Dejong All Traded

Earlier in the month of July, St. Louis Cardinals president John Mozeliak was the first executive in baseball to publicly declare his club as a seller approaching the August 1st MLB trade deadline. Suffice it to say, he wasn't kidding. The Cardinals were perhaps the most active club prior to Tuesday's deadline, shipping out pitchers […]

Trevor Story Won't Return Friday

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that shortstop Trevor Story (elbow) won't be activated from the injured list on Friday. Cora pumped the brakes on a potential return this weekend for Story on Tuesday, but the 30-year-old's minor-league rehab assignment will be up next week regardless, so fantasy managers should expect him back then. […]

Corey Seager Returning From Injured List Wednesday

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (thumb) is coming off the 10-day injured list on Wednesday and will start against the visiting Chicago White Sox and right-hander Dylan Cease. Seager did not go on a minor-league rehab assignment, but nevertheless, fantasy managers will want to get him right back into their starting lineups. The 29-year-old former […]

Paul DeJong Hitting Eighth In Blue Jays Debut

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Paul DeJong, who was acquired from the St. Louis Cardinals at Tuesday's trade deadline, will start at shortstop and bat eighth in his debut with the team on Wednesday against Baltimore Orioles rookie right-hander Grayson Rodriguez.

The Toronto Blue Jays are placing shortstop Bo Bichette (knee) on the injured list on Wednesday with right-patellar tendinitis. Bichette was considered day-to-day with knee inflammation on Tuesday, but now he's dealing with tendinitis and will get at least 10 days to rest up. Toronto traded for Paul DeJong at the trade deadline on Tuesday, […]

Elly De La Cruz Resting Against Cubs

Cincinnati Reds rookie infielder Elly De La Cruz is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday with the team facing the Chicago Cubs. With De La Cruz starting on the bench, Nick Senzel will move to the hot corner and will hit second in the batting order against Cubs left-hander Drew Smyly. It appears to […]

There are always plenty of key fantasy hitters in the injury headlines, but this week's list of players has no shortage of star power. That said, fantasy managers will need to be ready to pivot.

Noelvi Marte Holding His Own In Triple-A

Cincinnati Reds shortstop prospect Noelvi Marte was promoted to Triple-A Louisville on July 10 and has shown he has belonged since that time.

Orelvis Martinez Has Plenty Of Power In His Bat

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop/third base prospect Orelvis Martinez has struggled since being promoted to Triple-Buffalo on July 17. Martinez, 21, hasn't hit much for average at either stop this season, but has shown plenty of power out of his bat with 19 homers between Double-A New Hampshire and Triple-A Buffalo. He has also driven in […]

Kahlil Watson Will Join High-A

After being acquired from the Miami Marlins in the Jean Segura for Josh Bell deal, shortstop prospect Kahlil Watson will join High-A Lake County for the Cleveland Guardians. Watson, 20, is a former first-round pick in 2021 and could be an under the radar get for the Guardians. Watson has struggled this season with a […]

Marco Luciano Back In Triple-A

San Francisco Giants shortstop Marco Luciano was demoted to Triple-A Sacramento before Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks to make room for outfielder AJ Pollock on the active roster. Over four games, the rookie hit .273 with no home runs and a 41.7% strikeout rate. Fantasy owners can expect Luciano to make his way back […]

Tyler Freeman Exits Early Tuesday

Cleveland Guardians infielder Tyler Freeman (shoulder) left Tuesday's contest against the Houston Astros prematurely after experiencing left shoulder soreness, according to MLB.com. Before his removal, he was 0-for-2 with a punchout in the eventual 2-0 loss. The club will monitor how Freeman's feeling over the next few days, so fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. […]

Guardians Promote Brayan Rocchio Tuesday

The Cleveland Guardians are calling up infield prospect Brayan Rocchio from Triple-A Columbus, according to Guardians Prospective. He will be available to play in Wednesday's contest against the Houston Astros. Rocchio made his Major League debut earlier this season and went 3-for-14 with no extra-base hits.

Early Slate - DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/2/23): MLB DFS Lineups

We have a few matinee games on Getaway Day this week, but of course, both FanDuel and DraftKings chopped off the afternoon games. We still have four early games (classified as very early on FD) and at least both sites are on the same page this week as they both left off the game in […]

Dansby Swanson Homers Twice, Plates Five Tuesday

Chicago Cubs shortstop Dansby Swanson got in on the action in Tuesday's 20-9 drubbing of the Reds. Swanson went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a three-run HR, and a strikeout. The 29-year-old has provided consistent but unexciting fantasy production, slashing .266/.350/.446 with 15 HR, 50 RBI, and four stolen bases this season. While he […]

Trevor Story Might Not Return This Weekend

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora has pumped the brakes on shortstop Trevor Story's (elbow) return from the injured list this weekend. There's a chance Story makes his 2023 season debut this weekend, but either way, his minor-league rehab clock runs out on Aug. 9, so he'll be back next week one way or another. […]

Red Sox Make A Move For Luis Urias

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Luis Urias is headed to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for right-handed pitcher Bradley Blalock. The 26-year-old infielder has been dreadful at the plate this season, but the Red Sox want to see if they can tap into his potential. Urias is slashing .145/.299/.236 with one home run and five RBI […]
