Cincinnati Reds right-hander Sonny Gray was excellent in a 3-0 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. Gray pitched eight shutout innings while striking out 12 and walking just one.

Scooter Gennett Leaves Game With Injury

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Scooter Gennett was forced from Wednesday's game in the fourth inning with left groin tightness.

Nick Senzel is Out on Wednesday

Derek Dietrich Returns to Lineup

Dietrich's bat has cooled significantly the past few weeks, with a .111/.304/.241 slash line in the last 28 days. His season line remains a strong .223/.351/.565, so OBP and OPS league owners should still be pleased with […]

MLB DFS Prop Picks for 7/3/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

As much as I have touted overs on pitcher strikeouts, with some justification, it’s not something to accept blindly. Sometimes the number is just too big to bank on for that day, or maybe it’s a pitcher who doesn’t – even in this environment – pick up a lot of Ks. With a full slate […]
