Carter Kieboom Heads To 10-Day Injured List
Washington Nationals infielder Carter Kieboom (wrist) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday evening, retroactive to Sept. 22. The young infielder took a pitch off of his wrist on Monday, and the contusion will hold him out for the remainder of the season. Kieboom slashed .202/.344/.212 with no homers and nine RBI across […]
Trea Turner Not In The Lineup On Wednesday
Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Luis Garcia is shifting over to cover shortstop while Josh Harrison is playing second base and batting second in the game. Turner has had a solid month of September, slashing .284/.347/.489 with three home runs, 15 RBI, 15 […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Baseball Picks (9/23/20) - MLB DFS Lineups
We have a hefty 14-gamer on Wednesday's DraftKings slate. There are a plethora of top arms to choose from in Bieber, Bauer, Giolito, Grienke, Glasnow, and Maeda, while there are also plenty of offenses to target with a nice mix of terrible and inexperienced pitching at the bottom. I'll be going through some of the […]
Week 10 MLB Closers & Bullpen Usage Report
Monitoring bullpens in 2020 will be a vital task each and every day. Because of this, we'll be publishing a weekly article at RotoBaller that tracks which bullpens are being taxed and which pitchers within that bullpen are being heavily used.

Carter Kieboom Out Of Lineup For Game 1 Tuesday
Washington Nationals third baseman Carter Kieboom (hand) is not part of the starting lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies. Kieboom left Monday's game after he was hit on the hand by a pitch from Zack Wheeler. It doesn't seem like an injury that should keep Kieboom sidelined too long, but […]
Howie Kendrick Hopeful To Return Before End Of Season
Washington Nationals infielder Howie Kendrick (hamstring) plans on returning to the lineup this week. The 37-year-old is dealing with a hamstring strain and has not appeared in a game since Sept. 5. Kendrick was slashing .275/.320/.385 with 14 RBI before going down. He is a viable depth bat in fantasy formats, but there are likely […]
Carter Kieboom Leaves Monday's Game With Injury
Washington Nationals third baseman Carter Kieboom left Monday's game in the sixth inning after taking a Zack Wheeler fastball off of his hand. It is unclear what the exact injury was, but Kieboom seemed to be in a lot of discomfort as he came off of the field. It may be nothing more than a […]
Max Scherzer Sees Production Dip During Shortened Season
Washington Nationals right-handed pitcher Max Scherzer has been one of the preeminent arms of his generation, but his shortened 2020 campaign hasn’t been up to the elite expectations that many set for the likely future Hall of Famer. The .419 xSLG and .311 xwOBA that he has compiled over his first 11 starts this season […]
Andrew Stevenson Shifts Up To Leadoff Spot Monday
Washington Nationals outfielder Andrew Stevenson will hit leadoff Monday against Philadelphia and right-hander Zack Wheeler. Stevenson has hit primarily at the bottom of the order during his tenure with the Nationals, but with two steals in seven games this year, he’ll now hit ahead of Trea Turner and Juan Soto, making for an intriguing DFS […]

Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates for Week 10
Injuries are commonplace in all sports. Baseball has seen the rate of injury continue to rise over the past few years. In fantasy, if someone is not in the medical field, it is hard to gauge how long a player will be out and whether they need to be replaced in a lineup. Sometimes this […]

Must-Add Category Streamers for the Final Stretch
Sadly, just 10 days of baseball remain in the MLB regular season and the fantasy season. At least the commissioner was nice enough to let everyone into the postseason, so there'll be plenty more ball games on the tube to watch. Unfortunately, fantasy leagues don't work that way. You're in the last leg of the […]
Erick Fedde Tosses Six Scoreless Innings In Game 1 Win
Washington Nationals starter Erick Fedde allowed one hit across six scoreless innings during Game 1 of the team's doubleheader versus the Miami Marlins.

Closers and Saves Report - Week 9 Waiver Wire
It feels like the season just started. Remember drafting your team? Remember how excited you were about your roster? Well, I hope you're still excited, because it's time for playoffs (in most leagues). This has been a weird season and 40-something games was not nearly enough to determine what fantasy managers deserved an appearance in […]
Adam Eaton On The Shelf, Brock Holt Returns From Paternity List
Washington Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday due to a left index finger fracture. The timing of the injury appears destined to end Eaton’s 2020 campaign, which ultimately finishes as the weakest offensively of his nine-year career. To take his place on the active roster, the club activated Brock […]

Trea Turner Mired In Small Slump
Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner was 2-for-4 during Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. The 27-year-old is batting .241 with no homers and four RBI over his last seven games. It is a sudden cold streak for Turner, but some regression had to be expected. He still owns a .344/.401/.594 slash line on […]
