JaCoby Jones Placed On Injured List
On Thursday, the Detroit Tigers placed outfielder JaCoby Jones (low back strain) on the 10-day Injured List. Jones has been a mainstay in the Tigers' lineup all year, starting in centerfield and typically batting ninth, but starting in mid-June, he began leading off a good amount. Jones doesn't contribute much in fantasy terms, with a […]

MLB DFS Prop Picks for 7/3/19 - Monkey Knife Fight
As much as I have touted overs on pitcher strikeouts, with some justification, it’s not something to accept blindly. Sometimes the number is just too big to bank on for that day, or maybe it’s a pitcher who doesn’t – even in this environment – pick up a lot of Ks. With a full slate […]

MLB DFS Prop Picks for 7/2/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14

We look at the matchups and other variables to […]
The Cut List (Week 14) - Time to Let Go?
We're halfway there in the baseball season, but hopefully your fantasy team is living on more than a prayer. (By Jove, that's terrible. Apologies.)

Miguel Cabrera is Taking a Breather
Detroit Tigers designated hitter Miguel Cabrera (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Washington Nationals.

JaCoby Jones is an Interesting Option for Saturday
Detroit Tigers outfielder JaCoby Jones could make for an interesting fantasy option for Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals. Jones will bat leadoff and play center field versus righty Austin Voth. Jones has been average with the bat this season, but is hitting .360/.385/.680 over the last seven games. He's not someone that is going […]

The Detroit Tigers placed starting pitcher Spencer Turnbull (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list on Friday with right shoulder fatigue. It means he won't make another start until after the All-Star break. Turnbull was pulled from his outing on Thursday after just two innings when his velocity was down.

Spencer Turnbull Facing Lefty-Heavy Rangers
