J.D. Martinez To Miss A Day Or Two

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez will receive either a day or two off in the series in Atlanta against the Braves this week. With no designated hitter in a National League park, this is the perfect time to get Martinez some rest. Martinez has been a fantasy beast, hitting .335/.405/.647 with 39 long balls, […]

David Price Could Return Next Weekend

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher David Price (wrist) could return from the disabled list by next weekend against the Astros. Price has gone 14-6 with a 3.60 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 9.0 K/9 over 26 starts. He'll be a must-start fantasy option when he returns to the team's rotation.

Chris Sale Could Return Next Weekend

Boston Red Sox ace Chris Sale (shoulder) could start a game as early as next weekend against the Astros, but his role would be as an "opener" for two to three innings as he rebuilds his arm strength. Sale has been one of the best pitchers in baseball this year but has missed time this […]

Andrew Benintendi Out Of Lineup Sunday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi (rest) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox. The 24-year-old is hitting just .211 in his last 14 games, so hopefully, the day off will help him clear his mind. J.D. Martinez will get the start in left field and Jackie Bradley Jr. will […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/2/18): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Since these games are broken down into two slates, I'll be covering both slates. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy baseball lineup picks for FanDuel […]

Jackie Bradley Jr. Goes Deep On Saturday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. had a triple and a solo home run in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Chicago White Sox. After a dismal offensive start to the season, Bradley has really picked it up at the plate. In his past 30 games, the 28-year-old has a .291 average to go along […]

Eduardo Rodriguez Strikes Out 12 In Return From DL

Boston Red Sox starter Eduardo Rodriguez was electric on Saturday against the Chicago White Sox. Making his first appearance since July 14, Rodriguez went 5 2/3 innings allowing a single run on three hits. He also piled up 12 strikeouts while walking a single batter. Rodriguez was actually perfect through four innings and struck out […]

Steve Pearce is Starting on Saturday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Steve Pearce is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox. Pearce sat out on both Thursday and Friday, but is batting third and playing first base against lefty Carlos Rodon on Saturday. Pearce is hitless in his last four games, but has been reliable with […]

Andrew Benintendi Crushes Solo Shot in Defeat

Boston Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi was responsible for the team's only run during Friday's 6-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox. Benintendi smoked a Juan Minaya pitch in the eighth inning for his 16th big fly of the season. Like a lot of players on the Red Sox, Benintendi has enjoyed a fantastic fantasy […]

Nathan Eovaldi Mediocre In Rain-Shortened Start

Boston Red Sox starter Nathan Eovaldi allowed three runs on three hits in two innings of work during Friday's 6-1 loss to the Chicago White Sox. Eovaldi was pulled from the game after two innings due to a lengthy rain delay that also chased White Sox starter Michael Kopech from the contest. After two strong […]

Steven Wright Activated Off Of Disabled List

Boston Red Sox pitcher Steven Wright (knee) was activated off of the 10-day disabled list on Saturday morning. Wright had been out of commission since June 23, and now he will head back to the Red Sox bullpen. Wright was actually a solid streaming option before succumbing to injury, as he allowed one run or […]

Eduardo Rodriguez Activated, Starting On Saturday

Boston Red Sox starter Eduardo Rodriguez (ankle) was activated from Triple-A Pawtucket on Saturday morning. The team is getting Rodriguez right back into action as he will be taking on the Chicago White Sox on Saturday night. Prior to his injury, the 25-year-old was having a fantastic season on the mound. He has posted an […]

Willy Adames (2B/SS, TBR) - Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tampa Bay Rays infielder Willy Adames was the key piece of the trade that sent David Price from Tampa to Detroit and he is starting to show why the Rays valued him so much.

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/31/18): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

Happy Friday, my fellow Rotoballers. We've made it to the long holiday weekend. The Cubs are on the road today and we all know what that means - a 15 game Main slate tonight. And there are a plethora of strong pitchers and offenses to target - there's much to discuss. Let's gander at a […]

Week 23 Waiver Wire: H2H Category Streamers

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago by completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked […]

Ian Kinsler Delivers Three Hits On Thursday

Boston Red Sox second baseman Ian Kinsler was 3-for-4 at the plate on Thursday during a 9-4 win over the Chicago White Sox. The 36-year-old is carrying a scorching .423 batting average over his past seven games, but he only has two RBI to show for it. Kinsler actually has a .320 average through 15 […]

Mookie Betts Smokes Two-Run Shot On Thursday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts was 2-for-5 at the plate with a two-run homer on Thursday against the Chicago White Sox. Betts also walked once and struck out once. This just continues what has been a ridiculous season for the perennial MVP candidate. Betts is now up to a .342 average on the year […]

J.D. Martinez Crushes 39th Homer Of The Season

Boston Red Sox slugger J.D. Martinez smacked a three-run shot in the top of the ninth inning during Thursday's win against the Chicago White Sox. He was 1-for-5 at the plate with one strikeout. Martinez has been downright exceptional all season long and is one of the biggest reasons why the Red Sox have been […]

Rick Porcello Has Another Ineffective Outing

Boston Red Sox starter Rick Porcello allowed four runs on eight hits through five innings on Thursday against the Chicago White Sox. He also had seven strikeouts and three walks. Luckily, his offense bailed him out and gave him a no-decision as the Red Sox came back to win 9-4. Porcello has simply not been […]

Mitch Moreland Remains Out of the Lineup on Thursday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (knee) is out of the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Chicago White Sox. This will be the second straight game that Moreland has missed due to a left knee contusion. He's considered day-to-day, so no disabled list stint for Moreland yet. Brock Holt will play first […]

Dustin Pedroia To Be Re-Evaluated Sept. 7

Boston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia (knee) will return to Boston on Sept. 5 and will be re-evaluated by the team on Sept. 7. Pedroia has had just 11 at-bats due to knee issues in 2018 and remains a long shot to play again this season, even in the postseason. That's the main reason […]

Mookie Betts Leads Red Sox Offense On Wednesday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts victimized the Miami Marlins in a 14-6 win on Wednesday night. Betts was 3-for-4 at the plate with a home run, three RBI, and three runs scored. The offensive outburst was nice to see as Betts had been a bit quiet in the run-producing department over the past two […]

Mitch Moreland Dealing With Knee Issue

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (knee) did not start on Wednesday because of a knee issue that happened when he banged his knee on concrete during the last homestand. The injury doesn't sound very serious, but Moreland may need a few more days of rest. The left-handed hitter has 15 home runs, a […]
