Gerrit Cole Gets Ejected Friday Against Red Sox
New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole had a frustrating night in his start against the division-rival Boston Red Sox on Friday in an eventual 5-4 win. Cole was ejected in the sixth inning after arguing with the home-plate umpire right after allowing a three-run home run to Alex Verdugo. The 32-year-old had already thrown […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers for Fantasy Baseball - Week 25
We have a bit of a weird situation here as the MLB regular season runs up through October 5, which is a Wednesday. Different leagues will handle this differently, but I imagine that the majority of leagues that aren't already finished will run the whole through that October 5 day. Because of these extra three […]
Fantasy Baseball Week 25 Injury News and Updates: Tyler Glasnow, Trevor Story, Frankie Montas, Spencer Strider, Starling Marte
September is coming to an end and so is the baseball season. At this point, fantasy players are either watching their teams win their leagues, finish in the money or just trying to end the season out of their league's cellar. Because pitchers have a 15-day IL and hitters have a 10-day IL, a lot […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/23/22): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups
After watching my Steelers lose to their division rival Cleveland Browns last night, I'm ready to focus on baseball and forget about football until Sunday. They didn't just lose, they were handled in the second half and the Browns are not even a very good football team, it looks like it's going to be a […]
Clay Holmes Picks Up Relief Win
New York Yankees relief pitcher Clay Holmes picked up his seventh win of the season Thursday night. He threw two innings of relief, finishing off a 5-4 extra-inning win over the rival Red Sox, allowing no runs on one hit with one strikeout and no walks. The once-dominant Holmes has faltered of late, allowing earned […]
Giancarlo Stanton Homers In Three-Hit Game
New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton went deep again Thursday night, hitting a two-run homer as part of a 3-for-4 day at the plate. Stanton has largely struggled in September, with a .692 OPS in 64 plate appearances, but he's now hit home runs in two of his last three games. That gives Stanton 28 […]
Andrew Benintendi Unlikely To Return Before Playoffs
New York Yankees outfielder Andrew Benintendi (hand, wrist) said "it's pretty safe to say the regular season is out" for his return to the team. Benintendi is hoping to be part of the team's postseason roster, but he's not sure yet when he'll resume swinging a bat. The 28-year-old suffered a broken hamate bone and […]

The 28-year-old has a 3.24 ERA (3.47 FIP), a 1.08 WHIP, one save and eight […]
Fantasy Baseball Trade Targets - Buy/Sell For Week 24
Making the right trades can be crucial to championship success in fantasy baseball, almost as much as the draft, if not more. While most trades can have a significant impact on your fantasy team, it’s the deals where you acquire undervalued players and then see their production improve that can really tip the scales in […]
Luis Severino Activated And Starting Wednesday
New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (lat) was activated from the 60-day injured list and is starting against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. Although the matchup is a good one, Severino will be a little more risky than usual since it will be his first start back in the big leagues since July 13. […]

Yankees Unsure If Matt Carpenter Will Return
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on Sept. 16 that he is "not sure" if there will be enough time for designated hitter Matt Carpenter (foot) to return during the regular season.
