Josh Bell Hitting Cleanup For Padres In Game 1

San Diego Padres first baseman/designated hitter Josh Bell is in the lineup for Game 1 of their series against the New York Mets. He is the designated hitter and will bat cleanup for the Friars. Bell had been sitting quite a bit down the stretch and dropped down the order when he did play, but […]

Mike Clevinger Placed On Injured List

The San Diego Padres placed right-hander Mike Clevinger (illness) on the injured list on Wednesday and recalled right-hander Nabil Crismatt from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (10/1/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

Today's MLB slates are split up as is the norm for late-season baseball. Half the guys I think will play will not, so you have to be as flexible as Gumby to play MLB DFS in September and October, but that also means that there is a lot of money out there should you dare […]

Steven Wilson To Serve As Opener Thursday

San Diego Padres rookie right-hander Steven Wilson will serve as the opener on Thursday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers. Nelson will be making his first career major-league start in this one, but he's unlikely to be a realistic fantasy streamer in what should be a short outing.
