J.D. Martinez Retreats To The Bench Saturday

Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the New York Yankees.

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers for Fantasy Baseball - Week 25

We have a bit of a weird situation here as the MLB regular season runs up through October 5, which is a Wednesday. Different leagues will handle this differently, but I imagine that the majority of leagues that aren't already finished will run the whole through that October 5 day. Because of these extra three […]

Fantasy Baseball Week 25 Injury News and Updates: Tyler Glasnow, Trevor Story, Frankie Montas, Spencer Strider, Starling Marte

September is coming to an end and so is the baseball season. At this point, fantasy players are either watching their teams win their leagues, finish in the money or just trying to end the season out of their league's cellar. Because pitchers have a 15-day IL and hitters have a 10-day IL, a lot […]

Nathan Eovaldi Set For Rehab Start Friday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) is scheduled for a rehab start at Triple-A Worcester on Friday. He is set to throw four or five innings, and if all goes well he should return to the Red Sox rotation late next week and make two starts before the season ends. He has had […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/23/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups

After watching my Steelers lose to their division rival Cleveland Browns last night, I'm ready to focus on baseball and forget about football until Sunday. They didn't just lose, they were handled in the second half and the Browns are not even a very good football team, it looks like it's going to be a […]

Triston Casas Hits Third Homer

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas hit his third career home run Thursday night, a solo shot off relief pitcher Clarke Schmidt during a 5-4 extra-inning loss to the New York Yankees. Casas also walked in five plate appearances. It's been a struggle for the rookie thus far, as he has just four hits […]

Trevor Story Lands On IL, Bobby Dalbec Recalled

The Boston Red Sox placed second baseman Trevor Story (heel) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with a left heel contusion. The move is retroactive to Sept. 19. The Red Sox were hoping that Story could return at some point this week after getting injured on Sept. 11, but that hasn't happened. With very […]

Trevor Story Still On The Bench

Boston Red Sox right-hander Garrett Whitlock (hip) will undergo hip surgery next week and will be shut down for the rest of the 2022 season. The Red Sox are hoping that he'll be ready to go again for spring training next year. There's a good chance that the 26-year-old was pitching through pain for much […]

Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (heel) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds.

Eric Hosmer Still Hopes To Return This Year

Boston Red Sox first baseman Eric Hosmer (back) hasn't given up hope of playing again this season. Skipper Alex Cora said Hosmer might resume baseball activities on Tuesday.

Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (heel) took a big step forward on Sunday by taking at-bats against right-hander Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) in a simulated game at Fenway Park.

Nathan Eovaldi Nearing Rehab Assignment

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) threw 65 pitches in a four-inning simulated game at Fenway Park on Sunday morning. If he comes out of that session with no complications or setbacks, he will likely make a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Worcester on Friday. It could put him in line to […]
