Giovanny Urshela Wills Yankees To Win

Becoming a regular on the New York Yankees as a result of injuries, Colombian infielder Giovanny Urshela has been more than serviceable since arriving in the Bronx. Starting at third base and batting seventh Monday night, the former Cleveland Indian recorded two hits, but his biggest plate appearances came at the most opportune moments. In […]

Hunter Dozier Out Tuesday

Kansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier (back) is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday after leaving early on Monday with lower back spasms. Chris Owings is starting at the hot corner and is batting seventh against Rays starter Ryne Stanek on Tuesday. Dozier is day-to-day, so hopefully he doesn't miss much time. He […]

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Won't Debut Against Giants

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. won't come up to make his major league debut against the Giants in the series that starts on Tuesday, but he could be brought up for the homestand that begins on Friday against the A's.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of leagues ANALYSIS: Renato Nunez has been a pleasant surprise for the Orioles and a shocking sight for the Athletics and Rangers.

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Zack Cozart left the game in the 12th inning on Monday night after an awkward slide into second base that saw his head collide with Yankees second baseman DJ LeMahieu.

Jeimer Candelario Hitting Leadoff, Josh Harrison Dropped In Order

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario is hitting leadoff on Tuesday against Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale in Game 1 of their doubleheader, while second baseman Josh Harrison drops to the seventh spot.

Nolan Arenado Appropriately Homers For 1,000th Hit

Colorado Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado ripped a home run to left for his 1,000th MLB hit on Tuesday, and it ended up being the game-winning run, just to put the cherry on top. Arenado racked up five hits in the last two games to get to the milestone, and the homer was the fourth […]

Week 4 Waiver Wire Watch List

As important as it is to be active on the waiver wire, snagging that next hot bat or pitcher on a roll before anyone else can, let's be honest--there are only so many roster spots. That's why your watch list is just as important as your waiver wire activity, and perhaps even more so. Throughout […]

Jeff McNeil Expected To Be Fine

New York Mets third baseman/outfielder Jeff McNeil underwent post-game X-rays on his hand on Monday, but he feels completely fine. McNeil was hit by a pitch that glanced off his fingernail and brushed his hand. He had a solo home run and a single in his four plate appearances and is now slashing an impressive […]

Odubel Herrera, Scott Kingery Might Miss More Time

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Odubel Herrera (hamstring) and infielder Scott Kingery (hamstring) might miss more than the 10 days on the injured list. Herrera is "kind of on track," according to manager Gabe Kapler, but the team isn't sure if he'll be ready to rejoin the team on Sunday when he's eligible. Herrera was hitting .270 […]

Hunter Dozier Day-To-Day With Back Spasms

Kansas City Royals third baseman Hunter Dozier (back) left the game early on Monday and is listed as day-to-day with lower back spasms. Dozier had a solo home run, a single and a walk in his three plate appearances to raise his average to .324 on the season with seven home runs, 12 runs scored […]

Jeff McNeil Goes Yard As Mets Roll

Starting at second base for the ailing Robinson Cano, New York Mets infielder Jeff McNeil was one of two starters to record a pair of hits in victory.

The New York Mets will activate infielder Todd Frazier off the IL Monday prior to their game against the Philadelphia Phillies.
