Rafael Devers Hits Homer In Third Straight Game
Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers has hit three home runs in his last three games. He homered on Wednesday against the Blue Jays to increase his total to six on the season. He’s also slashing a terrific .320/.390/.472 with six steals. If owners were disappointed in the power before this week, they sure […]
Michael Chavis Hits Game-Winning Homer
Boston Red Sox second baseman Michael Chavis hit a game winning solo home run to lift the Red Sox over the Blue Jays Wednesday. There were doubts about him hanging on to the second base job with Eduardo Nunez available and Dustin Pedroia rehabbing, but those are long gone. This was his 10th home run […]
DJ LeMahieu Drills Another Home Run
It has become clearer that the New York Yankees have an MVP through the first two months of the season and his name is DJ LeMahieu. The former Colorado Rockies All-Star has been one of the few Yankees to avoid the IL this season, spending time all around the infield. Wednesday night he recorded two […]
Angels-Twins Postponed Thursday
The game between the Los Angeles Angels and Minnesota Twins on Wednesday was postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up on Thursday, with Angels starter Matt Harvey and Twins hurler Martin Perez likely being pushed back until then. Hopefully you were able to get any players on these teams out of […]
Matt Duffy Aggravates Hamstring
Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Matt Duffy (hamstring) aggravated his left hamstring during a rehab game with Triple-A Durham and will return to Florida for further evaluation. It comes at a terrible time, as Duffy was getting closer to making his season debut for the Rays. He may need to restart his rehab assignment, depending […]
Giovanny Urshela Sitting Out on Wednesday
New York Yankees third baseman Giovanny Urshela (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Urshela was dealing with a groin injury, but returned to the lineup on Monday. DJ LeMahieu will bat leadoff and cover third base against righty Dan Straily. LeMahieu is a strong fantasy option for […]
Josh Donaldson Getting Day Off Wednesday
Atlanta Braves third baseman Josh Donaldson is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday. Austin Riley will play the hot corner and hit fifth against Giants starting pitcher Jeff Samardzija. Riley was raking in the minor leagues and hasn't really missed a beat in his first taste of the majors. The 22-year-old is hitting .385/.407/.769 […]
Jeff McNeil Out With Hamstring Tightness
New York Mets infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday after he felt some left hamstring tightness on Tuesday. McNeil doesn't think the injury is serious and expects to be back in the lineup on Thursday. J.D. Davis is starting in left field and is hitting second, while Todd Frazier […]
Tim Beckham Out Of Lineup
Seattle Mariners shortstop Tim Beckham is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday. Dylan Moore, fresh off the injured list, is starting at third base and is hitting seventh against Rangers starting pitcher Jesse Chavez. Even though he'll face some nice pitching matchups in this one, Moore just doesn't excite fantasy owners in any format. […]
Kyle Seager Should Return Saturday
Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager (hand) went 2-for-4 with a walk and three RBI for Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday and is hitting .281 on his rehab assignment. He should come off the injured list on Saturday and make his season debut. It's actually perfect timing for the M's, as Ryon Healy just landed on […]

Chicago Cubs third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant went 3-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored Tuesday. Bryant continues to get on base and looks to be fully healthy after a rough 2018 campaign. The former MVP is now hitting .275 with 11 home runs and 32 RBI.
DJ LeMahieu Leaves After Foul Ball Off Foot
New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu (foot) exited Tuesday's game early after fouling a ball off of his foot in the sixth inning. The move was likely precautionary, as the Yanks were off to an 11-3 lead, but look for an update after the game. Lemahieu stayed hot in this one, going 3-for-4 with a […]

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Matt Duffy (hamstring) is eligible to come off the 60-day injured list on Monday and is getting closer to a return to the lineup.

Joey Wendle To Undergo X-Rays Wednesday
Tampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle (wrist) will undergo X-rays on Wednesday and is hoping to be cleared to increase his baseball activities. Wendle has been out since late April and is hitting just .136/.240/.182 with no homers and two RBI in his 22 at-bats on the season. He should be able to return sometime […]
Yandy Diaz is Scratched on Tuesday
Tampa Bay Rays infielder Yandy Diaz (hand) has been scratched from Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Diaz suffered a hand contusion when he was hit by a pitch during Sunday's contest.

Anthony Rendon Keeps Pounding Against Mets
Washington Nationals third baseman Anthony Rendon had another big game Monday night at Citi Field against the New York Mets. Rendon reached base safely all four times he came to plate, walking twice, hitting his ninth home run and notching his league-leading 17th double. Rendon has been a bright spot in a dark season for […]
Miguel Sano Hits Second Homer
Minnesota Twins third baseman Miguel Sano went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in a 3-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. Sano's two-run shot in the eighth inning broke a 1-1 tie and wound up being the difference in the ballgame for Minnesota. The veteran slugger was just activated from the injured list […]

Daniel Descalso Picks Up A Pair Of Hits
Chicago Cubs infielder Daniel Descalso went 1-for-4 with a walk and two RBI on Monday versus the Phillies. Descalso has been getting a decent amount of plate appearances for the Cubs, but does not own an everyday role and is more useful in DFS.
Ryon Healy Exits Early With Lower Back Discomfort
Seattle Mariners third baseman Ryon Healy was forced to leave Monday's game early after experiencing lower back stiffness. Healy had an ugly swing striking out in the fourth but stayed in the game hitting a sacrifice fly in the sixth before getting lifted for Daniel Vogelbach. The M's haven't updated his status if they expect […]
