Yoan Moncada Back In Lineup Thursday

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) is back at third base and is hitting third in the batting order on Thursday against Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Alek Manoah. Moncada missed the last five games with an injured quadriceps muscle. Hopefully the time off allowed him to regroup mentally, as the 27-year-old enters Thursday's […]

Miguel Andujar Sitting In Game 1 Thursday

New York Yankees outfielder Miguel Andujar is not in the starting lineup for Game 1 of the doubleheader against the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday. Andujar will take a seat after starting each of the team's last seven games in left field. The 27-year-old Dominican doesn't have any homers to speak of this year, but […]

Brandon Marsh, Tyler Wade Out In Game 1

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Brandon Marsh and third baseman Tyler Wade are both out of the starting lineup in Game 1 of a doubleheader against the New York Yankees on Thursday. Both left-handed hitters will get a game to rest with Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes on the mound. Marsh is hitting .276/.329/.393 with four homers, […]

Matt Carpenter Leading Off For Yanks In Game 1

New York Yankees infielder Matt Carpenter is serving as the designated hitter and is batting leadoff on Thursday in Game 1 of a doubleheader against Los Angeles Angels right-hander Shohei Ohtani. Carpenter has some sleeper appeal in DFS out of the leadoff spot, but the matchup against Ohtani isn't an ideal one. The 36-year-old veteran […]

Evan Longoria Out Of The Lineup On Wednesday

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) isn't included in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies.

Yoan Moncada Remains Out For Wednesday's Game

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against left-hander Hyun Jin Ryu and the Toronto Blue Jays.

Will These Big-Name Hitters Turn it Around? Curse of the 2022 Free Agent Class

The 2022 offseason gave us one of the biggest free-agent classes in recent memory. So many big names moved around and gave us so many questions as to what these moves meant for fantasy. Unfortunately, for the most part, those moves have led to pretty underwhelming starts to the 2022 season. For whatever reason, a […]

Evan Longoria Exits With Shoulder Soreness On Tuesday

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) was removed from Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies in the fifth inning due to right shoulder soreness.

Projecting MLB's Demoted Top Prospect Hitters - Is A Rebound Likely?

You know the pattern: an acclaimed prospect (or young player) gets the call, folks spend hundreds of dollars of FAAB on them, then they get demoted a few rough weeks later. Sometimes, they fail to rediscover their shine in the minors. Other times they get another chance in the majors and take a major step […]

Josh Donaldson Could Return Soon

The New York Yankees are encouraged that third baseman Josh Donaldson (shoulder) will come off the 10-day injured list soon. He was initially on the COVID-19 injured list, even though he tested negative for the virus. The Yankees then transferred Donaldson to the injured list with a shoulder injury. The 36-year-old received a cortisone injection […]

The game between the Colorado Rockies and Miami Marlins has been postponed on Tuesday due to inclement weather. It will be made up as part of a doubleheader on Wednesday.

Nolan Gorman Resting Against Padres

St. Louis Cardinals rookie infielder Nolan Gorman is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the San Diego Padres and left-hander Blake Snell. Gorman went 3-for-3 with a two-run home run and two runs scored in Monday's win, and the 22-year-old prospect has been excellent in his first 10 major league games for the […]

Yoan Moncada Still Absent Tuesday

Chicago White Sox third baseman Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. Moncada served as a pinch-hitter in Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs, but he hasn't started a game since last Wednesday with a left quadriceps injury. An injured list stint remains a possibility for […]

Wilmer Flores Homers Monday

San Francisco Giants infielder Wilmer Flores went deep Monday, knocking a two-run home run in a 5-4 extra-inning victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. It was his only hit in five at-bats. Flores now has a .258/.318/.419 slash line in 168 plate appearances, with five homers, 24 runs scored, and 27 RBI. He's earned regular playing […]

Luis Guillorme Earning More Opportunities

New York Mets infielder Luis Guillorme has been on a significant hot streak of late, slashing .475/.533/.525 over his last 15 games, and he has even occupied the leadoff spot in the batting order while Brandon Nimmo has been out with injury. Guillorme doesn't offer much in the way of power or speed, with just […]

Kris Bryant Having Issues Swinging

Colorado Rockies third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant (back) looks strong, but manager Bud Black said he still cannot swing the bat with freedom and comfort. "The other aspects of the game, presently, he's fine throwing, running," Black said. "Those baseball activities, no problem. Swinging the bat is where we got to get to. He was limited. […]

Kevin Smith Leaves Monday With Knee Contusion

Oakland A's infielder Kevin Smith left his team's Monday game against the Houston Astros with a knee contusion.

Brian Anderson To Miss Third Straight Game

Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson (back) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies. This marks his third game in a row that Anderson has missed due to back spasms. It's unclear how long Anderson is going to be sidelined, but hopefully he'll avoid a trip to the injured […]

Manny Machado Returns Against Cardinals

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado (elbow) is back at third base and is hitting second on Monday against St. Louis Cardinals left-hander Packy Naughton. Machado had missed the team's last two games with tennis elbow, but he's back in the lineup to begin the new week. Fantasy managers need to get the 29-year-old […]
