Anthony Rizzo Takes BP, Could Return Tomorrow

New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo took batting practice on Friday and is likely to return to the lineup tomorrow, according to manager Aaron Boone. Rizzo has now missed four games with back stiffness but is evidently feeling better now. The 32-year-old veteran has enjoyed a nice bounce-back season in the power department, with […]

Aaron Judge Returning On Friday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (lower body) is back in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Boston Red Sox. He sat out of Thursday's contest due to lower body soreness, but is back on Friday. He'll serve as the designated hitter and bat second versus right-hander Connor Seabold.

Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Fantasy Baseball - Week 14

Another week gone by, and we're another week closer to the trade deadline. Everything has been quiet on the trade front, but we all know how this goes: one team will jump the line and make an early trade, setting off other teams to make their early trades, and all culminating in a flurry of […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/8/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

We were really close to getting a full 15-game slate, but the Reds and Rays are playing a 6:40 PM game, meaning we have "only" 14 games on the main slate instead. That also means my favorite lefty fireballer Shane McClanahan (and also the surging Luis Castillo) are not on the main slate, but we […]

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole wasn't at his best in his outing against the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. However, he did enough to earn his eighth win of the season.

We are back for another week of our fantasy baseball prospects rankings series, reviewing MLB prospects to make fantasy impacts in 2022.

Clay Holmes Tosses Perfect Ninth Inning

New York Yankees relief pitcher Clay Holmes has been nearly unhittable all season long. That continued during his outing versus the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. Holmes pitched a perfect ninth inning and held the one-run lead during Thursday's victory. He has recorded five saves in his last six appearances. Holmes has an unbelievable 0.47 […]

Aaron Judge Dealing With Lower Body Soreness

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder Aaron Judge (lower body) isn't in the starting lineup on Thursday against the division-rival Boston Red Sox because he's "been dealing with some kind of lower body soreness thing." The Bergen Record's Pete Caldera is reporting that Boone said that Judge will probably be available as […]

Aaron Judge Getting A Breather On Thursday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge is getting the day off on Thursday as the team opens up a four-game road series against the Boston Red Sox.

Florio's MLB Bullpen Report: Braves Pen Changing, Stash Candidates

For over a month now I have been highlighting the fact that no position is more influenced by the trade deadline than the reliever position. That closers and other relievers would be traded which would be sure to shake up the fantasy baseball relief pitcher landscape. That we would see new closers emerge and some […]

New York Yankees outfield prospect Estevan Florial has seen MLB action in each of the past three seasons, though all of his stints in the Bronx have been short-lived. He's now back in Triple-A, putting the ball in play while swiping bases like a wizard. This is no surprise considering running is one of Florial's […]

Matt Krook Strikes Out 10 In Triple-A

New York Yankees minor league pitcher Matt Krook was drafted by the Giants back in 2016 but has bounced around with three organizations since then. He was originally dealt to the Rays in the Evan Longoria trade before finding his way to New York in the 2020 Rule 5 Draft. Interestingly, Krook is best known […]

Jameson Taillon Struggles Again Tuesday, Takes Loss

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jameson Taillon turned in another dud of a start in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Pirates, falling to 9-2. Taillon pitched 5 1/3 innings, allowing five runs on six hits (including two home runs) and no walks with five strikeouts. The 30-year-old started the season out very well but has […]
