Adam Duvall Sits Out on Tuesday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Adam Duvall (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the New York Mets.

Sam Dyson Activated on Tuesday

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Sam Dyson (biceps) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Dyson was placed on the injured list August 3, so he didn't miss too much time due to his biceps discomfort. Dyson has been horrible since joining the Twins, so it's unlikely that they throw him back in […]

Juan Soto Will Play on Tuesday

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto (ankle) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Soto missed one game due to a mild right ankle sprain. He's batting cleanup and playing left field versus lefty Alex Wood on Tuesday. Fantasy owners can feel safe about putting Soto back in their lineups.

Brian Dozier Returns on Tuesday

Washington Nationals second baseman Brian Dozier (illness) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. He's been battling an illness the last few days, so he's been playing off the bench. He'll play second base and bat sixth versus lefty Alex Wood. Dozier doesn't have much upside with the bat […]

Jon Gray Scratched on Tuesday

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Jon Gray (ankle) has been scratched from his scheduled start against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. Jeff Hoffman has been recalled to make a spot start here. He has a 6.57 ERA in a little over 38 innings, so he's not a strong fantasy option. Hoffman is not a trustworthy fantasy […]

Rowdy Tellez Recalled from Minors

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Rowdy Tellez has been recalled from the minors on Tuesday. Tellez has been crushing the ball in the minors over the last month, so the Jays are going to give him another look. Justin Smoak is in the lineup on Tuesday, but should see less playing time as the season […]

Christian Yelich is Back in the Lineup

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (back) is returning to the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Twins. Yelich missed nearly a week of game action while nursing a back issue. He'll bat third and play right field versus lefty Martin Perez. It appears the back issue is gone, so Yelich should be good […]

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Tommy Pham (hand) is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Pham has been dealing discomfort in his right hand, but is hopeful that he won't land on the injured list. Austin Meadows will cover left field and bat second versus lefty Eric Lauer. Meadows […]

Zach Davies to Throw Bullpen Session Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Zach Davies (back) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Wednesday.

He's not expected to need […]

Griffin Canning Expected to Return on Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Griffin Canning (elbow) is expected to return to the starting rotation for Tuesday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Jose Martinez Placed on Injured List

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jose Martinez (shoulder) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Martinez is dealing with an AC sprain in his right shoulder. He suffered the injury while running into the wall during Sunday's contest. There is a good chance that Martinez misses about a month of action. Randy Arozarena has been […]

Juan Soto is Not Starting on Monday

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto (ankle) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Soto is dealing with a mild ankle sprain that he suffered on Sunday.

Yadier Molina Activated on Monday

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina (thumb) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. Molina missed a full month of action due to a lingering thumb sprain.

Naquin won't have […]

Ken Giles is Available on Monday

Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Ken Giles (elbow) is available to pitch in Monday's game against the Texas Rangers.

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Sanchez will get the second game of the doubleheader off to rest. Austin Romine will do the catching and bat seventh versus lefty Ty Blach. Romine doesn't have upside with the bat, so fantasy owners […]

Didi Gregorius is Sitting in Second Game on Monday

New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius (finger) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Gregorius admitted that his strained finger on his right hand is still bothering him. He suffered the injury last month and says it's a pain tolerance issue for him. However, he did play in the […]

Brian Dozier Won't Play on Monday

Washington Nationals second baseman Brian Dozier (illness) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Dozier has not played since Friday due to the flu. Asdrubal Cabrera will cover second base and bat fifth against righty Anthony DeSclafani. Cabrera has some upside with the bat, but probably not enough to […]

Andrew Cashner Demoted to Bullpen

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Andrew Cashner has been demoted to the bullpen by the organization on Monday. Cashner was pitching well with the Baltimore Orioles before the Red Sox acquired him. He has a 8.01 ERA in six starts since joining the Red Sox rotation. Manager Alex Cora plans to use him in short […]

Nick Hundley Joins Phillies Roster

Philadelphia Phillies catcher Nick Hundley might not be on the roster until September, but he should make an impact with the team.

Ken Giles Won't be Placed on IL

Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Ken Giles (elbow) won't be placed on the injured list for now. He played catch on Sunday and hasn't pitched since Wednesday due to a lingering elbow issue.

Leury Garcia Scratched on Sunday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Leury Garcia (illness) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Sunday. Garcia is dealing with a minor illness, so he'll take the day off.

Raisel Iglesias Dealing with Biceps Issue

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Raisel Iglesias (biceps) is likely going to be sidelined for a few days. Iglesias is dealing with tightness in his biceps, so he's not expected to pitch for a few days.

Gary Sanchez Serves as DH

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez will serve as the designated hitter for Sunday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Sanchez returned from a stint on the injured list on Saturday.
