FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (7/7/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice
Our Wednesday slate got a bit shorter with the Mets and Brewers getting rained out on Tuesday so they will play two on Wednesday and thus, fall off the main slate on FanDuel. It's a shame too, as that takes Corbin Burnes off the slate and leaves the pitching options very thin, especially at the […]

Bobby Bradley (1B, CLE) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 14+ teams ROSTERED IN: 15% of leagues ANALYSIS: Bradley struggled in his September call-up in 2019 and didn't play last year due to the pandemic. Cleveland started him at AAA Columbus this year to get his footing back under him. After hitting just .196 in 26 games, he got […]
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Connects For 28th Homer
Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. crushed a 438' bomb for his 28th long ball of the season, but it wasn't enough as his team fell to the Orioles 7-5 on Tuesday. The former top prospect also chipped in with a sac fly that would have went for extra bases if not for […]
Brandon Belt Does Some Hitting, Throwing
San Francisco Giants first baseman Brandon Belt (knee) hit off a tee and threw out to 110 feet on Tuesday. Belt is opting to rehab his injured knee instead of undergoing what would likely be season-ending surgery. The 33-year-old still doesn't have a timetable for a return, but it's nice to know that he's already […]

Tellez has hit just .209/.272/.338 with four home runs and eight RBI in 50 games for Toronto this year, but he's been in Triple-A since June 22. The 26-year-old left-handed […]
Ty France (1B/2B/3B, SEA) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 42% of leagues ANALYSIS: The positional eligibility alone is fantasy gold, but what if a guy is hitting .265 while providing that? Not only that, but he is batting cleanup in an improving lineup. You probably want to know what you're going to have to […]
Phillip Evans In The Concussion Protocol
Pittsburgh Pirates manager Derek Shelton said that infielder/outfielder Phillip Evans (head) hit his head during the game on Monday and was put through the concussion protocol. Evans went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a strikeout in the ballgame and was removed in the ninth inning in a lopsided 11-1 win over the Atlanta Braves. It's […]
Marwin Gonzalez Day-To-Day With Hamstring Injury
Boston Red Sox utility man Marwin Gonzalez (hamstring) is listed as day-to-day after being removed from Monday's game against the Los Angeles Angels in the third inning with right hamstring tightness. Gonzalez was replaced in left field by Danny Santana after he started feeling discomfort running from first to second in the second inning. "Hopefully, […]
Jake Cronenworth Living Up To All-Star Billing
San Diego Padres second baseman Jake Cronenworth went 2-for-5 with a double, stolen base and two runs scored Monday against the Washington Nationals.

Rhys Hoskins Homers In Blowout Win At Wrigley
Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins went 2-for-5 with a home run, three RBI, and two runs scored in a win over the Cubs on Monday. Hoskins' homer was a tad cheap as he hit it off of position player Eric Sogard, but they all count on the ledger. Hoskins' RBI single was more legitimate […]
Dominic Smith Continues To Contribute
New York Mets first baseman/outfielder Dominic Smith went 1-for-2 with an RBI in the Mets 4-2 win over the Brewers on Monday. Smith was in the middle of a come-from-behind seventh-inning rally and plated the Mets first run of the game on a game-tying sac fly in the fourth inning. He remains on fire at […]

Jose Abreu Goes Yard For Second Straight Game
Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's loss versus the Minnesota Twins. Abreu was ice cold in the month of June with a .182 batting average to go along with two home runs and eight RBI, but he has been off to a hot start in […]
Eric Hosmer Grabs Pine Against Left-Hander
San Diego Padres first baseman Eric Hosmer is not in the starting lineup on Monday against Washington Nationals left-hander Jon Lester. Hosmer has actually hit .289 (11-for-38) in the last two weeks, but he'll get a day of rest against the veteran southpaw to open the series against Washington. The counting stats (six homers, 39 […]
Christian Arroyo Activated, Michael Chavis Optioned
The Boston Red Sox are activating infielder Christian Arroyo (knee) from the 10-day injured list on Monday and are optioning infielder Michael Chavis to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move. Arroyo, who was hitting .264/.324/.432 with four home runs and 19 RBI in 125 at-bats before his injury, figures to start frequently at second base […]
Ronald Guzman Hopes To Return In Late September
Texas Rangers first baseman Ronald Guzman (knee) said he has been off crutches for around three days and has started to do some walking exercises. Guzman is hoping to be back on the field by late September. The 26-year-old had surgery in April to fix a torn meniscus in his right knee. Fantasy managers in […]
