DJ LeMahieu Scratched On Wednesday

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (calf) has been scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the Chicago White Sox. It appears the 35-year-old is dealing with left calf tightness, so the team will play it safe and hold him out of this game. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will move over to third base with Oswaldo Cabrera being […]

Justin Turner Absent From BoSox's Lineup

As expected, Boston Red Sox infielder/designated hitter Justin Turner (heel) will miss another game on Wednesday against the visiting Kansas City Royals, and he'll likely be out on Thursday for the series finale in KC, too. Trevor Story is serving as the DH on Wednesday and is hitting third again, while Pablo Reyes will play […]

Detroit Tigers utility player Matt Vierling is back in the starting lineup Wednesday versus the Minnesota Twins and right-hander Bailey Ober. Vierling didn't appear in Tuesday's 6-0 victory over the Twins but returns on Wednesday to hit out of the three-hole and play third base where he has seen increased time of late. Acquired in […]

Justin Turner To Miss More Time

Boston Red Sox infielder/designated hitter Justin Turner (heel) sat out on Tuesday against the Kansas City Royals after missing four straight games last week due to a heel bruise he suffered on July 31. Turner went just 2-for-10 in the last three games and still isn't 100 percent. Manager Alex Cora said Turner will likely […]

Urias had gone 1-for-3 with a triple before being removed for Adam Frazier. It is unknown how severe his injury is, but fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day until […]

Trey Lipscomb Finding Success In Minors

Washington Nationals infield prospect Trey Lipscomb landed with the organization as a third-round pick out of the University of Tennessee in 2022. He is a reliable, versatile defender who has played all four infield positions this season. However, with impressive glovework, strong reactive instincts, and an above-average arm, he should stick at third base long-term. […]

Xavier Edwards Coming Off Phenomenal Week

Miami Marlins infield prospect Xavier Edwards is currently trapped in the minors (due to depth at the big-league level), but he's making the most of it. The switch-hitter has solidified a tremendous approach at the plate, generating contact and keeping strikeouts to a bare minimum. Although he lacks power, he more than makes up for […]

Boston Red Sox infielder/designated hitter Justin Turner will take the day off on Tuesday against the visiting Kansas City Royals. Outfielder Masataka Yoshida will serve as the team's designated hitter and will bat second against Royals right-hander Brady Singer. Turner has missed some time recently with a left-heel contusion, but he was able to serve […]

Matt Chapman Retreats To The Bench

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Matt Chapman will start Tuesday's contest against the Cleveland Guardians on the bench. It's a normal day of rest after he went hitless in four at-bats on Monday with two strikeouts against Cleveland. Santiago Espinal will draw the start at the hot corner and will hit eighth for the Jays […]

Yunior Severino - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Yunior Severino, 3B/2B, Minnesota Twins ANALYSIS: The switch-hitting Yunior Severino was originally signed by Atlanta as part of their enormous 2016 Latin American class. That class ended up being removed from the organization after the 2017 season due to violations by the Braves in 2016 that would not have allowed them to afford the […]

Josh Jung Put On 10-Day Injured List

The Texas Rangers placed third baseman Josh Jung (thumb) on the 10-day injured list on Monday with a left-thumb fracture and recalled infielder Jonathan Ornelas from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move. There is no timetable for Jung's return, but he should be stashed in all fantasy leagues until further notice. Expect him to […]

The game will be made up as a doubleheader on Tuesday. The Nationals were scheduled to start right-hander Trevor Williams opposite of Phillies southpaw Ranger Suarez while it's unclear if both […]

Brett Baty Sent Down

The New York Mets optioned third baseman Brett Baty to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday. With Baty sent down amid his struggles at the plate, it will likely mean more playing time for Mark Vientos at the hot corner in Queens. The 23-year-old Baty is hitting just .216/.289/.331 with seven home runs, 27 RBI and 33 […]
