Alex Kirilloff To Be Recalled Friday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Alex Kirilloff will get the call to join the team on Friday. Kirilloff had already appeared in a game for the Twins this season, though it was as the 27th man, and he was promptly sent back down to the alternate site. However, the organization's number-two ranked prospect figures to have more […]

Dominic Smith With Two Hits On Thursday

New York Mets first baseman/outfielder Dominic Smith went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in the Mets' 4-3 loss to the Cubs on Thursday. Smith had been struggling at the plate so the multiple-hit performance was a welcome sight. Smith raised his slash line on the season to a modest .250/.275/.417 over 51 […]

Miguel Sano Headed For Injured List

Minnesota Twins first/third baseman Miguel Sano (hamstring) will be placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday. Sano was initially considered day-to-day with right hamstring tightness, though the team opted to put him on the injured list after he missed each of the last two contests. The slugger was off to a slow start to […]

Cody Bellinger To Take Batting Practice Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman/outfielder Cody Bellinger (leg) will take on-field batting practice on Thursday. This comes after Bellinger was able to take some swings and jog lightly on Monday, so he's progressing along well so far. The slugger remains without a timetable for his return, though he noted that once the swelling and bruising […]

Joc Pederson Placed On Injured List And Nico Hoerner Called Up

Chicago Cubs outfielder Joc Pederson (wrist) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with left wrist tendinitis. Pederson has really struggled this season and has been out of the lineup for two straight games. The outfielder is hitting a weak .137 with one home run and four RBI this season. With Pederson out of […]

Luke Voit To Take Batting Practice Next Week

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (knee) will be in Scranton next week to take batting practice- and potentially see live game action. Voit was able to begin swinging the bat on Tuesday, so it sounds like he's trending in the right direction. The slugging first baseman is still a couple of weeks away […]

Joc Pederson And Jason Heyward Benched For Second Straight Day

Chicago Cubs outfielder Joc Pederson will be out of the starting lineup on Thursday versus the New York Mets. Pederson has been off to an awful start with his new team and is hitting a weak .137 with one home run and four RBI. Pederson came to the Cubs with the opportunity to play against […]

Fantasy Baseball Buy Lows and Sell Highs - Trade Targets for Week 4

Sometimes fantasy baseball can resemble the stock market. You want the best portfolio of players without having to pay too much for them.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (4/22/21): MLB DFS Lineups

We have a 5-game slate to attack. There is one "ace" on this slate with Buehler and then a lot of questionable options on the mound. With so many questions on the mound, there will be some great spots to attack bats on the slate as well. As we saw on Wednesday, there was offense […]

Carlos Santana Hits His Fourth Home Run On Wednesday

Kansas City Royals first baseman Carlos Santana had a solid day at the plate in Wednesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Santana went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk. Santana got off to a slow start to the year, but he has really started to turn things around lately. He has […]

Pete Alonso Blasts Mammoth Home Run On Wednesday

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso, who is off to a slow start to the 2021 campaign, blasted a monstrous two-run home in the Mets' lopsided 16-4 loss to the Cubs on Wednesday. Alonso's home run, which had an exit velocity of 115.4 mph and traveled 429 feet, was one of the lone bright […]

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Stays Hot With Two Hits

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. kept his strong season going on Wednesday night as he reached base four times in the team's 6-3 win over the Red Sox. The 22-year-old finished the contest going 2-for-3 with a double and two walks, upping his slash line to an impressive .383/.507/.650 on the campaign. […]

Ryan Mountcastle's Struggles Continue Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles first baseman/outfielder Ryan Mountcastle continued to disappoint at the plate in Wednesday's 3-0 loss to the Marlins, going 0-for-3 with a walk and two strikeouts. The 24-year-old had a solid 2020 campaign but has struggled mightily at the plate this season, compiling a .169/.203/.277 slash line with a 33.3% strikeout rate. While it […]

Yuli Gurriel Smacks Two-Run Homer

Houston Astros first baseman Yuli Gurriel supplied most of the team's offense on Wednesday, driving in three runs as the Astros 6-3 fell to the Rockies 6-3. Gurriel smoked a two-run home run in the second inning for his second round-tripper of the season and added a third RBI with a ground out in the […]

Garrett Cooper Dealing With A Groin Injury

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper is dealing with a minor groin injury, according to manager Don Mattingly. It explains why Cooper hasn't been mixed into the starting lineup in a few days. Cooper is off to a somewhat slow start, batting just .205/.300/.318 while splitting time at first base and the corner outfield spots. […]

Jesus Aguilar Drives In Two Runs On Wednesday

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar had a productive day in Wednesday's win over the Baltimore Orioles, going 1-for-3 with a double and two RBI. He also scored a run of his own and drew a walk. Aguilar's power has yet to show up as he hasn't hit a home run yet this season, but […]

Miguel Sano Not In Wednesday's Lineup

Minnesota Twins first/third baseman Miguel Sano (hamstring) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale against the Athletics. It makes sense considering Sano is dealing with a tight hamstring- and the Twins have a scheduled off-day on Thursday before their next series. The slugger should be considered day-to-day and will likely rejoin the lineup […]

White Sox At Indians Postponed Wednesday Night

The Chicago White Sox at Cleveland Indians scheduled for 6:10 pm EST Wednesday has been postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up as part of a traditional doubleheader on May 31st.
