Manny Machado Stings Three Homers Over Weekend

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado crushed three more homers over the weekend against the Atlanta Braves. Machado went yard on Friday and stung two more dingers Saturday, finishing the series 5-for-14 with four runs and three RBI. After a slow start, Machado has been on a nearly three-month tear and sits at a […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. Records First Career Four-Hit Effort

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. went 4-for-5 in Sunday’s loss to the Atlanta Braves. Coming out of the break, the 20-year-old picked up where he left off, collecting seven singles and a steal over the three-game series. He’s now slashing .339/.406/.615 on the year with 14 homers, 14 steals and 80 runs-plus-RBI in […]

Tim Anderson Takes Grounders Sunday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (ankle) took ground balls on Sunday but isn't real close to a return from his high right ankle sprain. "He’s still not pushing off that leg as well as we’d like but he’s healing," manager Rick Renteria said. Anderson is unlikely to return before next month, but fantasy owners […]

Carlos Correa, Aledmys Diaz Starting Rehab Assignments Monday

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (ribs) and infielder Aledmys Diaz (hamstring) will both start their rehab assignments on Monday with Triple-A Round Rock. Both players should be able to return to the active roster before the end of the month, barring any setbacks. Correa was hitting a nice .295/.360/.547 with 11 home runs, 26 runs, […]

Paul DeJong Out of Lineup for Sunday Finale

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong will sit out the series finale with Arizona on Sunday. It will be a well-deserved day off for DeJong, who has not missed a start since June 11. Yairo Munoz will get the start for St. Louis instead, going up against All-Star Zack Greinke,

The Cut List (Week 16) - Time to Let Go?

Not a ton has changed since last week given the one combined real game from Monday through Thursday. Friday doesn't exactly give us enough new information, either: as if Josh Bell opening the second half 0-for-4 would make anyone panic. That said, there are still decisions to be made. Fewer, given the lack of new […]

Jonathan Villar Heating Up In July

Baltimore Orioles second baseman/shortstop Jonathan Villar had a nice day at the plate in Saturday's doubleheader against the Rays, going 4-for-8 with four singles, an RBI, and two strikeouts. Villar is now hitting .361 with four RBI and a stolen base in July. He had been slumping for a while, so it is encouraging to […]

Andrew Cashner Traded To Red Sox

The Baltimore Orioles have traded starting pitcher Andrew Cashner to the Red Sox for Minor league infielder Noelberth Romero and Minor League outfielder Elio Prado. The veteran has pitched well this season, compiling a 3.83 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 66 strikeouts in 96 1/3 innings pitched. Cashner is slated to fill the number five […]

Willy Adames Not in Lineup for Game 1 of Doubleheader

Tampa Bay Rays shortstop Willy Adames is not in the lineup against the Orioles in Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader. This will be only the seventh game since May 1 that Adames was not in the starting lineup, so it seems safe to say this is just a game off before he most likely starts […]

Xander Bogaerts Clubs 18th Homer

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts made his only hit count Friday, slugging a three-run homer in the seventh inning of an 8-1 win over Toronto. Bogaerts came back from the break in a big way, and has now driven in a run in four straight games. On the year, he's hitting .293 with a […]

Carlos Correa, Aledmys Diaz To Begin Rehab Assignments

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (ribs) and infielder Aledmys Diaz (hamstring) are expected to begin minor league rehab assignments next week. Diaz is a couple days ahead of Correa. Correa has struggled to stay healthy the last two years, but he's a high-end fantasy shortstop when he's on the field. His owners will hope he […]

Alex Bregman is Out on Friday

Houston Astros infielder Alex Bregman (chin, head) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Texas Rangers. Bregman was removed from Thursday's contest after suffering a laceration on his chin that required stitches. There is still the possibly of a concussion, so Bregman will take the night off on Friday.

Roberto Perez (C, CLE) - Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: There may be no stronger argument for the juiced ball than the fact that Roberto Perez has 16 home runs and a .527 slugging percentage. Entering the season, the 30-year-old backstop had just 21 homers and a .340 SLG. Due to this lack […]

Nick Ahmed (SS, AZ) - Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 6% of Yahoo! leagues ANALYSIS: The only reason I can think that Diamondbacks shortstop Nick Ahmed is only owned in 6% of leagues is that he's boring. His .262/.311/.429 slash line admittedly doesn't jump off the page, but he does have nine home runs, six stolen bases, […]

Second-Half Speculation - Prospects to Stash Now

Picking up the right prospect during the second half can make or break a fantasy baseball season. While many of baseball's best prospects, including Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Keston Hiura, Austin Riley, and Brendan McKay have already been called up - there are still plenty of players still in the minor leagues that should get a chance to shine […]

H2H Category Streamers - Week 15 Waiver Wire

There are plenty of strategies that fantasy managers explore in hopes of getting an advantage over their opponent. Heavy lineup, heavy starting pitchers, no catcher, all (or mostly) reliever staff, no reliever staff, etc. Even if you play a balanced lineup, injuries can cause holes. A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]

First Half Contact Rate Risers and Fallers

Well, the first half of the season has absolutely flown by! We have seen some great hitting and a lot of runs scored so far, and there promises to be just as much excitement in the second half of the season.

Digger Deeper: AL-Only Waiver Wire Report for Week 15

very week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]

Corey Seager Activated From 10-Day IL

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager was activated from the 10-day IL today after being sidelined with a left hamstring strain in early June. Outfielder Matt Beaty was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City to make room on the roster for Seager. Beaty was a serviceable fill-in for all of the Dodgers injuries during his time […]
