Asdrubal Cabrera Keeps Driving Mets Offense

The New York Mets offense as a whole isn’t doing much, but don’t tell that to infielder Asdrubal Cabrera. Cabrera caught fire to start 2018 and while he slowed down a bit, the man is still producing nonetheless. In a close 2-0 victory over the Miami Marlins on Monday, Cabrera finished 2-for-4 with a double […]

Matt Carpenter Seems to Have Remembered How to Play Baseball

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter started out the season as one of the worst offensive players in baseball. He got an entire weekend off to work on his swing and was later even pinch hit for in a critical late-game situation. Something seems to have clicked with the veteran, though, as he's now recorded […]

Travis Shaw Hits 11th Home Run Of 2018

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Travis Shaw went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and one run in the 4-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Shaw has two home runs in his last seven games, along with six home runs in the month of May with still a lot more games to play. On the […]

I'll be filling in for Justin on this full Tuesday main slate. Chris Sale is the top target at pitcher in cash games, priced $300 below Gerrit Cole and facing a strikeout prone Rays lineup.

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager has seen his batting average take a nose dive this month despite a slugging percentage of .459 over his last 74 at-bats. Of his 16 hits during that span, six have been doubles and four have gone over the fence. But he's seen his fair share of bad luck […]

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario (wrist) might need a few more rehab games at Triple-A, according to manager Ron Gardenhire.

According to Mike Puma of the New York Post, the New York Mets are “showing interest” in free-agent outfielder/third baseman Jose Bautista.

Hunter Dozier Leads Offense On Sunday

Kansas City Royals first/third baseman Hunter Dozier smacked a pair of hits against the Yankees on Sunday, trying his best to carry the offense. Unfortunately, it was not enough to make up for a dismal pitching performance by the KC staff. Dozier has been acceptable as a Lucas Duda replacement so far, but he hasn’t […]

Luis Guillorme Starting At Third Base On Monday

New York Mets infielder Luis Guillorme is in the lineup and starting at third base against the Miami Marlins. It will mark the third start of Guillorme’s Major League career.

It's a short nine-game slate on Monday. Two games have an over/under of at least nine total runs. Five teams are heavy favorites (-185): STL, MIN, NYY, LAD, and WSH.
