Dominic Smith Fills Up Box Score Again On Thursday

New York Mets outfielder/first baseman Dominic Smith went 3-for-5 with a double and triple, drove in two, and scored two runs in the Mets' 10-6 win over the Phillies on Thursday.

Pete Alonso Homers In Mets Win

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso hit his 12th home run of the season in the Mets' 10-6 win over the Phillies on Thursday. Despite the home run, his lone hit of the contest, Alonso remains mired in a 2-for-23 slump which has brought his season average down to .215. It has been a […]

Cody Bellinger Remains In No. 6 Spot In Order Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman/outfielder Cody Bellinger is once again batting sixth during Thursday’s contest against Colorado and left-hander Kyle Freeland, the sixth time in the last seven games that he has held that spot in the lineup. Bellinger is yet to hit a home run during the month of September, having slashed just .216/.293/.405 […]

Yuli Gurriel Posting .632 OPS Against Righties

Houston Astros first baseman Yuli Gurriel is hitting sixth Thursday against the Rangers. After a fantastic month of August in which he slashed .305/.345/.558, those numbers have dipped to .189/.196/.283 over his last 15 games in September. Gurriel has really struggled against right-handed pitching this season, slugging only .352 with a .632 OPS against righties. […]

Padres-Mariners Series Shifted To San Diego This Weekend

The series scheduled for Friday-Sunday between the San Diego Padres and Seattle Mariners that was originally planned to take place at T-Mobile Park in Seattle, has been shifted to Petco Park in San Diego due to air-quality concerns. With wildfires raging in the Pacific Northwest, the Mariners already had multiple games against the Giants shifted […]

Jared Walsh Hitting .422 In September

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Jared Walsh will start and hit second Thursday against the Diamondbacks. Walsh has emerged as a late-season fantasy sleeper, slashing .422/.400/1.022 in September with one triple, four doubles, seven home runs and 17 runs batted in. Walsh has multiple hits in each of his last six starts with seven multi-hit […]

Wilmer Flores is covering first base in the game. Left-hander Nick Margevicius is on the mound for the Mariners. Belt has gone just 2-for-19 against lefties this year, but […]

From to Farm to Roster: Potential Call-Ups for Week 9

We're almost to the end of the fantasy season, and there is only one FAAB period left to help get our teams over the finish line. With that in mind, there are far fewer impact players that have yet to be called up. I'll still discuss players on a team's Taxi Squad or Alternate Site […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/17/20) - MLB DFS Lineups

We head into Thursday night with a 6 game slate on tap. There are a couple of top-end arms and a few main bats to focus on. We have Coors in play as well which may lower the amount some of the other strong offenses are rostered. It should be another wild slate like we […]

The Baller Ranks: Top 200 Hitters Weekly Rankings (Week 9)

Last week I wrote that the schedule had begun to have an outsized impact on value. At this point, it's not impacting projected value even more than recent performance. There are exceptions to that, but that's the overarching rule this week. Paul Goldschmidt's value has been buoyed by this aspect for much of the season. […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/17/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

After back-to-back nights of the Yankees’ offense making a mockery of the main slate, we get to add their offensive gumption to the cauldron of a Coors Field (feat. the Dodgers’ thundering bats) and Shane Bieber-focused slate.  This slate is smaller than usual, which makes the thunder lurking inside of it even more important to […]

It’s been a crazy ride this summer. The shortened 2020 fantasy season is winding down with less than two weeks remaining before the Major League Baseball playoffs begin. This will be our last update of the Top 50 redraft prospects for the year. It was a challenging season, to say the least, with no minor […]

Deeper Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 9

It feels like the baseball season has just started, but we are reaching the conclusion. Alas, that is life in a 60-game season. For fantasy purposes that means it's either playoff time or the final couple of weeks to try and make up ground in Roto leagues. Either way, the waiver wire may not be […]

Hot Prospects To Watch: Late-Season Arms and Bats

Perhaps there's nothing more tantalizing in fantasy baseball than drafting an up-and-coming prospect or rushing to the waiver wire to bid on a Triple-A call-up. With no minor leagues this year, our favorite prospects are now playing on taxi squads, making it difficult for us to fantasize about since we can't get eyes on their […]

Hoskins suffered a UCL injury in his left elbow and was placed on the injured list over the […]

Max Muncy Back In The Lineup On Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy is returning to the lineup on Wednesday, starting at third base and batting fourth. Muncy got the day off on Tuesday as Edwin Rios got the start at third base. Muncy has had a rough year overall and has particularly struggled in September, slashing .186/.352/.256 with just one home […]
