Two-Start Pitcher Streamers: Week 11

Huh. Well there aren't a lot of pitchers in line for two starts in Week 11. In fact by my count there are only 19 pitchers projected to make two starts this week. This is going to make things a bit tougher when it comes to finding two-start streamers on the waiver-wire. But before we […]

Hey there, RotoBallers! We have made it to Week 11, and when I look across the MLB Gambling Twitter landscape, I'm relieved to see that I'm not the only one who is waiting for the curtain to fall on whatever satirical act is going on for the first 2+ months of this MLB season. It […]

Alex Verdugo Launches Long Home Run Sunday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo got the scoring started Sunday night, launching a very long home run off Yankees starting pitcher Domingo German. It was Verdugo's eight long-ball of the year, and his only hit in five at-bats in the game. Verdugo has been a very solid contributor all season long, and fantasy managers […]

Marwin Gonzalez Homers Sunday

Boston Red Sox utility man Marwin Gonzalez hit his second home run of the year Sunday night, a two-run shot off Yankees reliever Lucas Luetge. Gonzalez has been resurgent over his last three games, going 4-for-11 after only recording one hit in his previous 10 games. Gonzalez seemed on the verge of falling out of […]

Hunter Renfroe Reaches Base Three Times

Boston Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe reached base three times against the Yankees Sunday night, going 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored.

Xander Bogaerts Drives In Three Sunday

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts came through in the clutch Sunday, driving in two of his three RBI in the top of the 10th inning.

Garrett Richards Scatters Eight Hits Across Five Innings

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Richards allowed three runs against the Yankees in five innings Sunday, scattering eight hits and two walks while striking out six batters. He did not factor into the decision. Fantasy managers will be pleased to see Richards walk less than four batters for the first time in his last […]

Matt Barnes Blows Second Save, Earns Lucky Win

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes blew the save Sunday night against the Yankees. It was just the second time this year that Barnes had not come through with an opportunity to close out the game. Appearing in his third consecutive game, Barnes walked two and gave up a hit to relinquish the one-run […]

J.D. Martinez Not Expected To Be Out Long

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez (wrist) isn't expected to land on the injured list, at least according to manager Alex Cora. Martinez injured his left wrist while sliding into second base during Friday's encounter with the Yankees. The veteran is batting .321 to go along with 41 runs, 39 RBI, and 12 homers this […]

Eduardo Rodriguez Solid on Saturday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez was solid in his start against the Yankees Saturday, throwing 5 1/3 innings with three runs allowed on five hits and a walk while striking out seven. Rodriguez has thrown better than his 5.59 ERA for the season indicates, but this was his only start in his last […]

Bobby Dalbec Hits Monster Home Run Saturday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec was not originally in Saturday's lineup, but took advantage of the opportunity when he was inserted due to J.D. Martinez's jammed wrist. Dalbec went 1-for-4 with a very deep two-run home run to left-center field that gave Boston a 7-3 lead. Dalbec has a disappointing .633 OPS with […]

J.D. Martinez Scratched With Wrist Injury

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez was scratched from Saturday's game against the New York Yankees with a wrist injury. Martinez injured his wrist while sliding into second base during Friday's game and is apparently still feeling the effects of that on Saturday. The team is calling him day-to-day for now. He will be replaced […]
