Matt Carpenter is Out on Wednesday
St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Matt Carpenter (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Oakland Athletics. Carpenter has just four hits in his last 29 at-bats, so he'll take the night off. Tommy Edman will bat leadoff and play third base versus righty Daniel Mengden. Edman could be a cheap […]
Jeimer Candelario Recalled on Wednesday
Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario has been recalled from Triple-A on Wednesday. Candelario is hitting .179/.277/.269 with the Tigers this season. However, Candelario is batting .345/.427/.631 during his time in the minors. Clearly, something hasn't clicked at the major league level for Candelario yet. He'll bat sixth and play third base versus lefty Mike […]

Digging Deeper: NL-Only Waiver Report for Week 13
Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]
Eduardo Escobar Could Shift To Second Base
Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eduardo Escobar might be shifted over to second base with first baseman/third baseman Jake Lamb (oblique) activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Wednesday's game.

Jake Lamb Activated From 10-Day Injured List
The Arizona Diamondbacks activated first baseman/third baseman Jake Lamb (quadriceps) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's game with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
