10 of the 15 games are on the main early slate on DraftKings today. We have a few aces, several solid pitchers, and about half the slate which look like powder kegs. There are teams in great spots for hitting and Mad Max gets the Marlins, a team that has given him some issues. Who […]

DJ LeMahieu Extends Hitting Streak To Five Games Saturday

New York Yankees infielder DJ LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a pair of runs scored and a walk in a victory over the Tigers.

Aroldis Chapman Notches Fifth Save

New York Yankees relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman worked another easy ninth for his fifth save of the year in Saturday's win over Detroit.

The southpaw's […]

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jameson Taillon notched his first victory of the season- and first win in two years- in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Tigers. Taillon pitched five innings, allowing one run on a trio of hits while striking out eight batters compared to three walks. The former Pirate made one mistake- a […]

Franmil Reyes Is a League-Winner Hidden In Plain Sight

The San Diego Padres signed Franmil Reyes to their organization all the way back in November of 2011. It took the Padres almost eight years and a season-and-a-half of playing time to move on from him, as they opted to include him in the Trevor Bauer/Yasiel Puig/Taylor Trammell three-team trade that included the Indians and […]

Giancarlo Stanton Gets Day Off Saturday

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton will have the day off on Saturday, sitting out the matchup with the Detroit Tigers.

There has been an injury trend that is hard to miss for the first month of the 2021 season. May has arrived and the injuries just keep piling up. There have been a lot of muscle/tendon sprains and strains to start the season. These injuries include oblique, groin, hamstring, and back injuries. Not all of […]

MLB Betting Picks for Saturday 5/1 - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

A profitable day last week with our two top picks both banking, but the Twins failed to win and help us bag a hat-trick too. News broke earlier this week that the Twins had only been able to take pre-game batting practice three times all season due to Covid issues. And it's no coincidence they […]

Aaron Judge Goes Yard Twice

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a grand slam in Friday's blowout win over Detroit. Judge had taken a seat on the bench for the past two games as management for his heavy workload- though he returned to the lineup with a bang, crushing a tape-measure, 436-foot […]

New York Yankees starting pitcher Gerrit Cole put together another dominant outing in Friday's 10-0 defeat of the Tigers. Cole pitched six shutout innings, allowing just four hits while fanning 12 batters with no walks.

Luis Severino To Face Live Batters Soon

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (elbow) will likely be facing live batters soon. This report comes after the 27-year-old continues to work his way back from Tommy John Surgery back in February of 2020. The righty could return sometime this Summer and will undoubtedly be a welcome addition to a rotation that has […]

Aaron Judge Back In The Lineup Friday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (lower body) is back in the lineup for Friday's game, as expected. Judge sat out the previous two games with lower-body soreness, though manager Aaron Boone had indicated that the slugger would be available for all three games against the Tigers. He'll slot into the order as the No. 3 […]

Luke Voit To Play Tuesday With Double-A Somerset

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (knee) will get his first game action on Tuesday, where he is expected to get into a game for the Double-A Somerset Patriots, according to Lindsey Adler of The Athletic. Voit has been on the injured list to start the year as he recovered from knee surgery to […]

Giancarlo Stanton Riding Seven-Game Hitting Streak

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton is red-hot at the plate right now, as he's sporting a seven-game hitting streak.

Aaron Judge Expected To Play Entire Series Against Tigers

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (lower body) is expected to play in each game of this weekend's upcoming series against the Tigers. Judge has been held out of the last two contests with what manager Aaron Boone referred to as "lower-body soreness" resulting from travel and a heavy workload- though it appears as if […]

Early Plate Discipline Improvers

Early season data is never very reliable. When you are still in the first month of the season, one game can have a big impact on a player's stat line in most categories. That makes it somewhat foolish to look at the data until you at least get a month or so of games out […]
