Top 20 Fantasy Baseball Prospects for Week 22

With September just around the corner, we’re quickly running out of time for minor league prospects to make impacts on the 2021 redraft season. However, that doesn’t mean a well-timed rookie or two still can’t push you into the playoffs or help you wrap up a title. Service time consideration has become a major factor […]

Carson Kelly Not Starting On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Carson Kelly isn't in Wednesday's lineup. The Diamondbacks will take on right-hander Bryse Wilson and the Pittsburgh Pirates but will do so with one of their best hitters on the bench. Kelly is batting .255 with a .384 on-base percentage and eight home runs in 258 plate appearances this season. Daulton Varsho […]

Carson Kelly Not In Lineup Wednesday Night

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Carson Kelly is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday night. This looks to just be a night off for Kelly, who has started in eight of the team's last 12 games. He's had a nice year at the plate overall, slashing .255/.384/.418 with eight homers, 30 RBI and 31 runs scored […]

We've got a loaded Wednesday slate with plenty of high-end pitching options to choose from.

Arizona Diamondbacks left-hander Caleb Smith received a 10-game foreign-substance suspension on Tuesday after he was ejected from his start against the Philadelphia Phillies last Wednesday after he was suspected of having foreign substances on his glove.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (8/23/21): MLB DFS Lineups

Happy Monday, Rotoballers! Unlike most of the teams in MLB today, we don't take any days off in DFS land. We are looking at a paltry six-game slate to start the final week of August, but that's okay. I tend to do better on smaller slates compared to the big, 14-game Friday night bonanzas. You […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/23/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

We have a solid Monday with seven games going on, but there is a matinee in Fenway so the FanDuel main slate is six games. Only one pitcher commands five figures for a salary tonight and he plays the Blue Jays, so there really is no clear-cut ace. It's slates like these that can get […]

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Humberto Mejia will start Monday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, according to Zach Buchanan of The Athletic. He will be recalled from Triple-A and make his first appearance of the season. A corresponding move will be made afterward.
