Champ or Chump: Huascar Ynoa

Is your fantasy team looking for more pitching? Nearly every manager is, making it difficult to find breakout arms on the waiver wire since everybody is looking for the same thing. This situation can also make it far too easy to put more faith in a breakout performance than warranted, potentially leaving you with an […]

We have a 14-game main slate on tap tonight, and it's a doozie. There is a lot of quality pitching options with some nice tournament pivots. At the same time, there are a ton of places to look for bats. We don't have Coors, which is nice, but we do have Coors South and some […]

Bell's Best Bets - MLB Betting Picks for 5/18/21 (Premium Content)

Johan Camargo Recalled By Braves

Atlanta Braves infielder/outfielder Johan Camargo has been recalled by the organization on Monday. This is likely a result of outfielder Ender Inciarte heading to the paternity leave list. Camargo is hitless this season through 13 at-bats coming into Monday's contest. The once promising prospect has not shown many signs of life during his time in […]

Max Fried Leaves Early Monday

Mike Soroka Not Expected To Pitch Again This Season

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Mike Soroka (Achilles) is unlikely going to take the mound during the 2021 season. Braves manager Brian Snitker hinted that the young righty likely won't take the mound for the Braves this year. He recently underwent a second surgery on his heel and Atlanta currently has no timetable for his return. […]

Huascar Ynoa Will Miss Significant Time

Atlanta Braves pitcher Huascar Ynoa (hand) is expected to miss a couple of months after suffering an injury on Sunday.

The 22-year-old was playing extremely well, so this is a significant blow to the Braves roster. […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Returns To Lineup Monday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (ankle) is back in the lineup for Monday's series opener against the Mets. Acuna missed three games since exiting Thursday's contest with the ankle injury, though he was utilized as a pinch hitter at the end of Sunday's game- indicating that he was close to a return. The superstar […]

Happy Monday, RotoBallers! We start the week with eight games on the DraftKings featured slate as we head into the back half of May.

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (5/17/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

The Reds and Giants had the audacity to start a half hour earlier than everyone else, so our MLB slate on FanDuel is cut down to eight games. We still have a couple of five-figure pitchers out there tonight. Are either of them worth paying for, or can we get similar production at a lower […]

Atlanta Braves pitcher Huascar Ynoa struggled with his command on Sunday and allowed nine hits over 4 1/3 innings during the club's 10-9 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. The young right-hander posted a solid K-BB of 6-2 but still coughed up five runs. This was just the second time all season that Ynoa has allowed […]

Atlanta Braves third baseman Austin Riley did his part by reaching base five times on Sunday but the club still lost the game 10-9 to the Milwaukee Brewers. Riley had two singles and three walks. The effort raised his on-base average up to .405 — more than .100 points higher than his career-high of .301 […]

Freddie Freeman Slugs Grand Slam In Losing Effort

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman added an exclamation mark to the Braves' rally on Sunday with a seventh-inning grand slam. The club scored seven runs in the inning to come within one run of tying the game but eventually fell short and lost the game 10-9 to the Milwaukee Brewers. The homer was Freeman's […]

Ronald Acuna Jr. Remains Out Of Lineup On Sunday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (ankle) will miss his third-straight game on Sunday as the Braves face Freddy Peralta and the Milwaukee Brewers. Acuna sprained his left ankle in Thursday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays and the team is being justifiably cautious with their superstar outfielder. Ehire Adrianza is starting in right field […]

Atlanta Braves pitcher Ian Anderson took a no-hitter into the seventh inning of his start against the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday. The rookie right-hander was pulled at 110 pitches after allowing his first two hits of the game to start off the seventh inning. He ended up with just one run crossing the plate over […]
