We have completed another week of MLB action, and we have once again been littered with injuries. Both good and bad things arise from injuries.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (5/23/21): MLB DFS Lineups

Today's slate is a little more straightforward than yesterday's fragmented one on DraftKings. We have a 10-game main slate that starts at 1:05 pm Eastern in the traditional matinee baseball format on Sundays. We've got four pitchers in five-figures, but it thins out a little after that. Should we pluck both starters from that upper […]

New York Yankees infielder/outfielder Miguel Andujar continued his recent stretch of solid play in Saturday's defeat of the Chicago White Sox.

Mike Ford Goes Yard

New York Yankees first baseman Mike Ford swatted his third home run of the season in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Chicago White Sox. White Sox reliever Matt Foster hung a breaking ball to Ford in the sixth inning, and the Yankee first baseman got every bit of it, sending it 447 feet into the […]

Kyle Higashioka Behind the Plate For Second Game Of Series

New York Yankees catcher Kyle Higashioka is the team's starting catcher for the second game of the series against the Chicago White Sox.

Clint Frazier Remains Out Saturday

New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier (neck) remains out of the lineup on Saturday. Frazier will miss his fifth consecutive game as he deals with a neck issue, though the Yankees still haven't clarified exactly what it is that's been bothering him.

DJ LeMahieu Sitting Saturday

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu is getting the day off on Saturday in the second game of the series against the Chicago White Sox. LeMahieu is 0-for-10 with a walk and an RBI in his last three games. This is only his third day off of the season- with Rougned Odor starting at second […]
