Should I Stash Owen Caissie In Redraft Leagues? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 15)
With the Chicago Cubs going through a bit of an offensive drought in June, many fans and fantasy baseball players have to be wondering if minor leaguer Owen Caissie could be the next hitting prospect called up to Chicago. Mike Tauchman is hurt, and Pete Crow-Armstrong is hitting just .192 this season while attempting to […]
Bryse Wilson Tagged For Five Runs In Relief Role
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Bryse Wilson was tagged by the Colorado Rockies in Monday's 8-7 loss, allowing five runs (all earned) and seven hits over four innings. Wilson replaced opener Rob Zastryzny in the second inning and immediately allowed homers to Charlie Blackmon and Brenton Doyle while striking out three and walking two. He is now […]
Should I Stash Garrett Mitchell In Redraft Leagues? Fantasy Baseball Prospect Outlook (Week 15)
After missing nearly the entire first half of the 2024 season, Garrett Mitchell is finally back with the Milwaukee Brewers and ready to help them continue their quest for an NL Central division title. Mitchell suffered a fractured finger in March and had several setbacks in his recovery that prolonged his return. But Mitchell looked […]
MLB DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (7/2/24) - Today's Top Lineups
The small slate yesterday leads to a large one today. Both sites chopped off those games that had the audacity to start 25 minutes earlier than the masses. That shortens the main slate to 11 games, but that's still plenty...especially after the three-gamer yesterday in which Coors popped off. Most of this article is going […]
William Contreras Collects Three Hits, Homers Monday
Milwaukee Brewers catcher/designated hitter William Contreras continued his solid offensive season in Monday's 8-7 extra-innings loss to the Rockies. Contreras went 3-for-5 with a single, a double, a solo home run, and a strikeout. Contreras took Austin Gomber deep to the opposite field in the fifth inning, putting a ball just over the right-field fence. […]

After covering catcher and first base already, we're sliding over to the keystone second base position today as I continue my mid-season look at the state of each position through a dynasty and prospects lens. The second base position has been on the rise over the last half-decade or so, but it's been rough this […]
Joey Ortiz Returning On Monday
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Joey Ortiz (neck) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Ortiz has missed the last three games due to neck discomfort. He'll make the start at third base and bat leadoff against left-hander Austin Gomber on Monday. The 25-year-old has been doing a solid job […]
Garrett Mitchell Reinstated From The Injured List
The Milwaukee Brewers reinstated outfielder Garrett Mitchell (finger) from the 60-day injured list on Monday and optioned infielder Tyler Black to Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move. The Brewers also designated infielder Owen Miller for assignment. It remains to be seen if Mitchell will be in the team's starting lineup on Monday for the series […]
Rob Zastryzny To Open For Brewers On Monday, Bryse Wilson To Follow Out Of Bullpen
The Milwaukee Brewers will have pitcher Rob Zastryzny start Monday's game against the Colorado Rockies instead of Bryse Wilson. Milwaukee has done this quite a bit with Wilson recently, as the right-hander has started just once over his last four appearances. However, he is expected to pitch the bulk of innings, while Zastryzny will only […]

We begin July with one of the smaller MLB slates of the season. There are only three games over the entire day on Monday, and we get started with a matinee. Those lineups need to be in earlier than usual today. That's a touch inconvenient, but this is a decent slate for as small as […]
Freddy Peralta Dominates Cubs For Sixth Win
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta was excellent on Sunday, throwing seven innings of one-run ball in a 7-1 win over the Chicago Cubs. Peralta allowed a lead-off homer to Nico Hoerner but gave up just one hit and two walks after that, striking out eight in the process. It's been a bit of a […]

Fantasy Baseball Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Week 15
It would be fun if MLB found a way to make All-Star Game fan voting work for pitchers, too. They would probably make it some unnecessarily complicated method, but I think we'd be willing to deal with it to see it happen. It would likely be even more unnecessarily complicated to have it work for […]
