Chad Green is the Opener for Friday

New York Yankees pitcher Chad Green will draw the start versus the Kansas City Royals on Friday. This marks Green's second start of the year, but he'll likely only go an inning or two. Green has a 12.41 ERA this season, so this is going to be a bullpen day for the Bronx Bombers. It's […]

Luke Voit Smacks Home Run As Yanks Sweep

Although they needed a late rally in which they played a very small role in, the New York Yankees swept the Baltimore Orioles Thursday afternoon at Camden Yards. Arguably their most reliable player, Luke Voit, played a key role in the victory. The 28-year-old recorded two hits, but his biggest was a solo home run […]

Masahiro Tanaka Has Strong Start Wasted Late

It wasn't the first time this happened in 2019, but Masahiro Tanaka posted an excellent start and wound up without a victory to show for it. Making his scheduled start after exiting last time with a shin injury, the 30-year-old went six innings at Camden Yards Thursday afternoon. He allowed just one run on five […]

CC Sabathia Lands On Injured List

The New York Yankees officially placed starting pitcher CC Sabathia (knee) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with right knee inflammation. Sabathia said he's headed to New York on Friday and is likely to skip at least his next start. The left-hander, who is now one win shy of 250 wins for his career, […]

Gleyber Torres Will Rest on Thursday

New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres (rest) is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The 22-year-old has absolutely dominated the Orioles this season, as 10 of his 12 home runs in 2019 have come against Baltimore, along with a .465 batting average through 49 plate appearances. Thairo Estrada will play […]

Gary Sanchez Out of the Lineup on Thursday

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (rest) is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. It's a routine day of rest for the 26-year-old, who is off to a great start in 2019 with 15 home runs, 31 RBI, a .270 batting average and an OPS of 1.018. Austin Romine will […]

Digging Deeper: AL-Only Waiver Wire Report for Week 8

Every 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 […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/23/19): MLB DFS Lineups

This Thursday slate is absolutely bizarre. There are 10 games in total, but four of them start between 12 and 1 pm, and there is only one game after 7 pm. That means a strange split of the slates on DraftKings. There is a six-game slate beginning at 12:10 pm, with a two-game slate beginning […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (5/23/19): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

There are nine games on the schedule today, with a lot of elite pitching and not much in the way of hitting. We will attempt to find some value, but there's not a whole lot of offense that I am too high on. We see Fanduel being split into an early slate and main slate, […]

Zach Britton Was Unavailable Wednesday

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that relief pitcher Zach Britton was unavailable on Wednesday and was "a little beat up." Britton said nothing in particular was bothering him, but he's thrown a lot of innings lately. The left-handed reliever will be available on Thursday. The 31-year-old is 2-0 on the season with a […]

DJ LeMahieu Drills Another Home Run

It has become clearer that the New York Yankees have an MVP through the first two months of the season and his name is DJ LeMahieu. The former Colorado Rockies All-Star has been one of the few Yankees to avoid the IL this season, spending time all around the infield. Wednesday night he recorded two […]

CC Sabathia Expects To Land On Injured List

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that starting pitcher CC Sabathia's knee is "barking a little bit," and Sabathia expects to go on the injured list. "It’s something I need to take care of," Sabathia said. The veteran left-hander said it's the same pain he's dealt with in the past and expects to go […]

Brett Gardner Picks Up Three Hits In Win

While the long ball was once again prevalent for the New York Yankees Wednesday night against the Orioles, the club's wily veteran found other ways to contribute. Brett Gardner picked up just his second multi-hit game of the month and first three-hit game in a month as he also scored a run in the process. […]

Gleyber Torres Continues To Own Orioles In Win

Following Wednesday's game New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres has 10 home runs this season against the Baltimore Orioles. With four months left in the season, he's four home runs away from tying the all-time record by one player against one team in a major league season. Torres drilled two more home runs Wednesday as […]

Giancarlo Stanton Shut Down For 7-10 Days

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (calf) is dealing with a calf strain and will be shut down for seven to 10 days. Stanton was pulled off his rehab assignment with High-A Tampa and put back on the 10-day injured list, so this is extremely frustrating for the Yankees and […]

Luis Severino To Start Throwing Soon

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (shoulder) is likely to resume throwing soon, according to manager Aaron Boone. Severino won't return before the All-Star break, but it's good to see him making progress from a Grade 2 strain of his right lat. The 25-year-old proved last year that he can be an ace in […]

Giovanny Urshela Sitting Out on Wednesday

New York Yankees third baseman Giovanny Urshela (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Urshela was dealing with a groin injury, but returned to the lineup on Monday. DJ LeMahieu will bat leadoff and cover third base against righty Dan Straily. LeMahieu is a strong fantasy option for […]

Giancarlo Stanton Suffers Another Setback

The New York Yankees returned outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (calf) from his rehab assignment with High-A Tampa with left calf tightness and placed him back on the 10-day injured list. Injuries continue to be a problem for the slugging 29-year-old, and he hasn't played in a major league game since March 31. It's unclear when he'll […]

Giancarlo Stanton Scratched From Rehab Game Tuesday

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (calf, knee) was scratched from the lineup for High-A Tampa on Tuesday with tightness in his calf/knee, according to manager Aaron Boone. However, Boone said that Stanton might be able to play on Wednesday, so it doesn't seem to be a serious setback after the slugger was hit by […]

Clint Frazier Breaks Out With Two Home Runs

Entering Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles, New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier had been struggling. While he was batting .324 with six home runs and 17 RBI through his first 18 games of the season, an ankle injury sidelined him. Since he returned from injury, he was batting a measly .105 entering Tuesday, but […]

Domingo German Now At Nine Victories

Entering Tuesday night as the majors' wins leader, New York Yankees starter Domingo German extended his lead as his club coasted to an 11-4 victory. The 26-year-old wasn't quite sharp on the night, but with extensive run support, he didn't need to be at the top of his game. He went just five innings, laboring […]

Gary Sanchez Stays Hot With Home Run

Just as he capped off Monday night's game with a three-run home run, New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez kicked off Tuesday's game with a blast. The former All-Star drilled another three-run home run in the first inning, essentially putting the game away early. The Yankees would double their lead two innings later and coasted […]

DJ LeMahieu Leaves After Foul Ball Off Foot

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (foot) exited Tuesday's game early after fouling a ball off of his foot in the sixth inning. The move was likely precautionary, as the Yanks were off to an 11-3 lead, but look for an update after the game. Lemahieu stayed hot in this one, going 3-for-4 with a […]
