Welcome to this week's Power Hitting Risers & Fallers. All stats are full season through Monday, June 3 (unless otherwise noted).

Digging Deeper: NL-Only Waiver Report for Week 10
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 […]

Chase Anderson Struggles Versus Marlins
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Chase Anderson struggled Tuesday night at home vs the lowly Marlins giving up four earned runs in four innings. Anderson has now failed to record a quality start in any of his six starts this season. Anderson had a promising season in 2017 but he's battled various injuries the past couple […]
Mike Moustakas Returns on Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Mike Moustakas (finger) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Miami Marlins. Moustakas suffered a fracture in his right ring finger during Saturday's contest. However, the Brewers didn't place him on the injured list, so he's going to attempt to play through the issue. Moustakas will bat […]
Freddy Peralta Likely To Enter Rotation
Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said pitcher Freddy Peralta will likely make a start with both Jhoulys Chacin and Gio Gonzalez on the injured list. Peralta has been much better in relief of late, but he's 2-2 on the year with a 5.68 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 43 strikeouts in 38 innings in six starts […]

Keston Hiura Optioned To Triple-A
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Keston Hiura has been sent down to Triple-A San Antonio the team announced Monday. Hiura was batting .281 with five home runs in 69 plate appearances but the team decided to send him back down to make room for Travis Shaw who is coming off the injured list. Hiura was striking […]
Travis Shaw Activated
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw (wrist) has been activated off the injured list and rookie second baseman Keston Hiura has been sent down to Triple-A San Antonio. With how atrocious Shaw has been so far this year, this is a somewhat surprising move sure to have fantasy owners and Brewers fans alike up in arms. Other […]

Corbin Burnes Gets Save Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Corbin Burnes earned his first save of the season and second of his career on Sunday, getting the last two outs of a 4-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Burnes has very promising stuff but has a catastrophic 9.72 ERA this season. In order to regain fantasy relevance, he not only needs […]
Jimmy Nelson Recalled on Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson has been recalled from Triple-A on Sunday. Nelson will be given the start versus the Miami Marlins on Wednesday. Nelson pitched fairly well during his recent rehab assignment. He's worth grabbing in fantasy leagues against the Marlins. He's been solid in the past, so it's worth taking a flier […]
Yasmani Grandal Gets a Breather
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Yasmani Grandal (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Brewers will give Grandal a day off on Sunday after his seven at-bat game on Saturday. Manny Pina will do the catching and bat eighth versus righty Jordan Lyles. Pina has been awful with the […]
Lorenzo Cain is Out on Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. This is just a routine day off for the veteran outfielder, so he'll be back at it soon. Ben Gamel will bat leadoff and play center field against righty Jordan Lyles. Gamel is in a favorable […]
Mike Moustakas is Out on Sunday
Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Mike Moustakas (finger) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Moustakas suffered a fractured right ring finger on Saturday after taking a pitch in the hand. The Brewers have not placed Moustakas on the injured list, but we'll see what happens. Hernan Perez will play […]
Jhoulys Chacin Placed on Injured List
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin (back) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Chacin is dealing with a lower back strain, so the Brewers will give him some time off to rest. Chacin has struggled this season, so this move could be good for both the Brewers and Chacin. It's unclear who will […]

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 10
Week 10 provides a number of young arms and a few pitchers whose limitations make them easy to overlook. I’m particularly excited about the Indians’ calling up Zach Plesac. I’m not sure what happens when Mike Clevinger gets back, but Plesac looks like a legitimate SP2 talent. A reminder before we begin: This column focuses […]
Gio Gonzalez Goes On Injured List With Dead Arm
The Milwaukee Brewers are placing starting pitcher Gio Gonzalez (arm) on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with what manager Craig Counsell described as a case of dead arm. Catcher Manny Pina (hamstring) was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move. Gonzalez isn't experiencing any pain, and it might be related to the […]
