Joey Bart Leaves Monday's Game Early
San Francisco Giants backstop Joey Bart exited Monday's contest against the St. Louis Cardinals prematurely due to right groin tightness. According to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle, he's been dealing with this injury for some time now, but the 26-year-old hopes he doesn't need more than a couple of days off. Over 12 […]
John Brebbia Opening For Giants Tuesday
San Francisco Giants right-hander John Brebbia will open Tuesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. It was Sean Manaea's turn in the rotation, but it's unclear if the lefty will relieve Brebbia later in the game. The 32-year-old has started in the past, making 11 starts in 2022, but has appeared strictly out of the […]
Do These Prospects Matter for Fantasy Baseball? Sterlin Thompson, Tanner Bibee, Kumar Rocker, Evan Carter and more

Mitch Haniger Activated And Batting Third Monday
San Francisco Giants outfielder Mitch Haniger (oblique) was activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. Haniger is batting third and will play left field in his return from a Grade 1 oblique strain. The start will mark Haniger's season debut after he strained his left oblique in late March. The Giants signed Haniger to […]
Alex Cobb Looking For First Win Against Cardinals
San Francisco Giants right-hander Alex Cobb is off to a strong start in 2023. He owns a (0-1) record with a 2.79 ERA and 22:3 K: BB through 19 1/3 innings. His BB% has dropped from 6.8% in 2022 to 3.5% in 2023, while his K% has increased from 23.9% to 25.9%. The 35-year-old has […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (4/24/23): Today's Top MLB DFS Lineups
Happy Monday, everyone. I hope you had a great weekend filled with baseball. We welcome the work week back with a seven-game slate. Today's slate is unappealing, as we have some mediocre pitching options. The value at pitching seems dreary, and I will be looking to avoid anyone cheaper than 9K on both sites tonight. […]

Camilo Doval Records Second Save Sunday
San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Camilo Doval picked up the save in a 5-4 win over the New York Mets on Sunday Night Baseball. It was only his second save of the season, but that mostly has to do with the Giants being 8-13 and not playing in many close games. He's been fine when […]

Deeper Hitter Pickups for Fantasy Baseball - Waiver Wire Report for Week 5
We’re rounding around week five of the fantasy baseball season. I know it takes some time to settle in, but there is no time to waste. Fantasy baseball necessitates hyper-vigilance, especially in deeper leagues where the waiver wires are quickly stripped of talent. This weekly article will outline the upcoming schedule, two-start pitchers, and a […]
Two-Start Pitcher Streamers - Fantasy Baseball SP Pickups and Starts (Apr 24 - Apr 30)
Last week was slim pickings when it came to streamable two-start pitchers. There were a few good pitchers that were over 50% rostered, but overall it didn't look like a great week. This week looks even more bleak and there are fewer options to stream than in the first few weeks. For those new to […]

Joc Pederson Likely Activated On Sunday
San Francisco Giants outfielder Joc Pederson (wrist) is likely to be activated ahead of Sunday's matchup against the New York Mets. The left-handed slugger landed on the injured list last week due to right wrist inflammation. The good news is, Pederson resumed baseball activities earlier this week. He appears to be on track to get […]
J.D. Davis Absent From The Lineup On Saturday
San Francisco Giants third baseman J.D. Davis is not in the lineup on Saturday against the New York Mets. This looks to be a routine day off for Davis, who is off to a scorching hot start for the Giants. The 29-year-old is slashing .306/.343/.532 with four home runs and 13 RBI over 62 at-bats. […]
Brandon Crawford Back In The Lineup On Saturday
San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford (ribs) is back in the lineup on Saturday against the New York Mets. The 36-year-old shortstop missed Friday's contest with rib discomfort but it doesn't appear to be a serious issue as he's ready to rock on Saturday. Crawford is off to a slow start at the dish this […]
