Rich Hill Injured Wednesday
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Rich Hill (forearm) left his start after just one inning against the Giants on Wednesday due to left forearm discomfort. Hill had two strikeouts in 15 pitches in a clean first inning before departing, and this could be a concerning injury for a veteran pitcher with an extensive injury history. […]
Julio Urias To Start Against Giants Thursday
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Julio Urias will start against the Giants on Thursday opposite Madison Bumgarner. Reliever Caleb Ferguson is set to piggy back Urias, so Urias will essentially be used as an opener for this one, which limits his fantasy appeal tremendously. The 22-year-old southpaw has pitched well for L.A. this year, going 3-2 […]
Joc Pederson Expected To Play Some First Base
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that outfielder Joc Pederson is ramping up his work at first base and is expected to play there at some point this season, especially with outfielder A.J. Pollock (elbow) coming back from injury sometime next month. Pederson has slowed down somewhat after a really hot start to the […]
Kenta Maeda To Receive Extra Day Of Rest
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Kenta Maeda (wrist) will receive an extra day of rest before his next start, which will allow his sore wrist to heal. Maeda was hit by a comebacker in his last start. Julio Urias will likely be inserted for a spot start and could be a sneaky streaming option in […]

Digging Deeper: NL-Only Waiver Report for Week 12
Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the disabled list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]
Corey Seager Resumes Playing Catch
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager (hamstring) has resumed playing catch in his recovery from a strained left hamstring. Seager continues to be held back by injuries, but he was starting to pick it up offensively after a slow start before he landed on the injured list. The 25-year-old is batting .278/.359/.468 overall with eight […]
A.J. Pollock To Play In Rehab Games During All-Star Break
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder A.J. Pollock (elbow) will play in rehab games during the All-Star break next month, according to manager Dave Roberts. Pollock also took swings off a tee on Monday and is slowly making his way back since being shut down at the end of April with an infected elbow. There remains no […]
Welcome (Back) to the Show, Willie Calhoun
Despite being 5’8”, Willie Calhoun is widely regarded as one of the best pure hitters in baseball. However, Calhoun’s size and limited defensive abilities have prevented him from earning elite-prospect status and getting the same hype as similarly-talented batters. Despite his limitations and that perception, the reality is that Calhoun profiles as a potential .290 […]

Julio Urias Eyed For Spot Start
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts stated the club is considering giving Julio Urias a start during their upcoming 18 consecutive game schedule. It would be a wise move for the Dodgers to have Urias break up the schedule and give their injury-prone starters a rest during this grueling stretch. The club faces all division […]
Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 12
Managers can easily make decisions to affect their team positively, but often they're too hesitant, cautious, or even scared.
