Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez (hand) is back in the starting lineup and is hitting third on Sunday against Seattle Mariners left-hander Robbie Ray. Perez was hit by a pitch on his left hand on Saturday and had to leave the game, but X-rays came back negative and he avoided a serious injury. The […]

Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell said that catcher Tyler Stephenson (concussion) may not travel with the team on their upcoming road trip to the Colorado Rockies as he remains in the league's concussion protocol.

X-Rays Negative On Salvador Perez's Hand

Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez (had) underwent X-rays after leaving Saturday's loss to the Seattle Mariners early after being hit in the hand by a pitch.

Bam Adebayo Dealing With A Quad Contusion

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (quadriceps) is questionable ahead of Sunday's playoff matchup versus Atlanta. The 24-year-old is currently dealing with a quad contusion. However, he's continuously played through the injury, so it's unlikely he misses this pivotal contest, especially since there's a chance Kyle Lowry (hamstring) won't play. However, Adebayo has averaged just 9.3 […]

Clint Capela May Play In Game 4

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) has a chance at suiting up for the playoff bout versus Miami. Capela hasn't played yet during the series after hyperextending his right knee during the play-in tournament. However, fantasy managers shouldn't get too excited if the big man is out there on Sunday, primarily since he may not […]

MRI Reveals No Significant Injury For Gary Sanchez

Minnesota Twins catcher Gary Sanchez (abdomen) underwent an MRI, which showed "minimal signal," per manager Rocco Baldelli. He's missed the last two games due to abdominal tightness. "We're going to give it a little bit of time, and he seems to be doing OK. He said there's some improvement going into today," said Baldelli. Ryan Jeffers would […]

Auston Matthews Returns To Lineup On Saturday

Toronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews (undisclosed) will return to the lineup on Saturday against Florida. The 24-year-old superstar has sat out three games with an unspecified ailment. It was apparently a very minor issue, with Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe suggesting during Matthews' layoff that he would've played if the playoffs had already […]

Brayden Point Back In Action Versus Nashville

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point (lower body) will return to action Saturday against Nashville. He dropped out of the lineup with a lower-body injury on Thursday against Toronto, but it looks like it wasn't anything serious if he can return so quickly. Point boasts 27 goals and 55 points in 62 games this season, […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (4/23/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

We're treated with five games on the main slate tonight and as seems to be the case on weekends, we're forced to choose from a relatively weak pool of pitchers. Yu Darvish, Noah Syndergaard, Ian Anderson, and Matt Brash make up the top of the salary tier on both sites, while the rest of the […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/23/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Four matchups on tap in the Association today, kicking off with a Sixers-Raptors contest that figures to be a relative snoozer compared to the rest of the slate. The Mavericks-Jazz affair is also not profiling as an appealing game to target for daily fantasy, but Luka Doncic is looking to make his return and we […]

Gary Sanchez Remains Out On Saturday

Minnesota Twins catcher Gary Sanchez (abdomen) is out of the starting lineup once again on Saturday for Game 2 of the team's series against the Chicago White Sox. This will be his second consecutive missed game due to abdominal tightness. Reese McGuire is making his second straight start at catcher for the game. There's no […]

Gary Sanchez Dealing With Abdominal Tightness

Minnesota Twins catcher Gary Sanchez (abdomen) was a late scratch from Friday's starting lineup due to abdominal tightness. According to Twins beat writer Betsy Helfand, Sanchez had an MRI on Friday. The team should have a better idea of what Sanchez is dealing with after the MRI results come in on Saturday. Reese McGuire got […]

Robert Williams III Expects To Play In Game 3

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) intends to play in Game 3 of the postseason series with the Nets. Williams had left meniscus surgery on March 30, and while it's good news for a Boston to get him back, he'll see a limited workload on Saturday, with more minutes likely to be added in […]

Joel Embiid Not On The Injury Report Ahead Of Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (thumb) isn't listed on the league's official injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup against Toronto. The MVP candidate was recently seen wearing a soft cast on his right thumb, and he's reportedly dealing with a significant amount of pain and discomfort. He may have a torn ligament, so despite averaging […]

Francisco Mejia Tests Positive For COVID-19

Tampa Bay Rays catcher Francisco Mejia has tested positive for COVID-19. The team placed him on the COVID-19 related injured list on Friday. Fellow catcher Rene Pinto was called up from Triple-A to fill his roster spot. Mejia has been seeing basically a 50/50 split at catcher with Mike Zunino this year. However, he's been […]

Clint Capela Ruled Out For Friday's Game

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Capela has yet to play in the team's opening round series as he's been hampered by a hyperextended right knee. He has resumed his strength exercises, but still needs some time before getting back on the court. We'll […]

Yasmani Grandal Getting A Breather On Friday

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against Bailey Ober and the Minnesota Twins. Reese McGuire is getting the start behind the plate for the game. This will be Grandal's third day-off of the year. He played in 10 of the team's first 12 games. Over those […]

Happy Friday RotoBallers! Welcome to a playoff edition of the Friday night top plays. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games.

Charlotte Fires Head Coach James Borrego

The Charlotte Hornets have chosen to move on from head coach James Borrego, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Borrego led Charlotte to the Play-In Tournament this season, after the team finished 43-39 and featured one of the most exciting young nucleuses in the NBA. Borrego went 138-163 in his four years at the helm […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Logs Career-Low Four Shot Attempts

Never before in Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns' professional career had he attempted four shots from the field or fewer -- until Thursday, that is. Towns' ability to be involved in the offense was thoroughly flummoxed by Memphis, who got the big man into foul trouble and forced him to make four turnovers. Across his […]

Nikola Jokic Records 37-Point Double-Double In Defeat

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic erupted for an enormous night of production in Thursday's loss to Golden State, compiling 37 points, 18 rebounds, and five assists across his 38 minutes.
