Seattle Mariners first baseman Evan White (hip) isn't close to resuming baseball activities.

The 25-year-old hasn't lived up […]

Dennis Clausen 3 years agoTrevor Cahill Sent To 60-Day Injured List
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Trevor Cahill (calf) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Friday. Cahill has been dealing with a left calf strain for almost a month, and it appears as if things aren't moving in the right direction. It's unlikely fantasy managers will miss him, though, especially considering how bad he has […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoDavid Peterson Sent To The 10-Day Injured List
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson (side) landed on the 10-day injured list on Friday. The southpaw exited Wednesday's start against Atlanta because of side discomfort after just three innings of work.

New York Mets starting pitcher Marcus Stroman (personal) was activated from the bereavement list on Friday.

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Taylor Widener (groin) is scheduled to throw another rehab session on Saturday. This will be Widener's second start at High-A Hillsboro as he continues to ramp up his activity level.

Dennis Clausen 3 years agoKnicks Rumored To Target Kelly Oubre Jr.
Forward Kelly Oubre Jr. is reportedly considered a top free-agent target for the Knicks during the offseason.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Kemba Walker could find himself in Los Angeles for the 2021-22 campaign, possibly suiting up for the Lakers or Clippers. The veteran was recently traded to OKC from Boston in exchange for Al Horford, although Walker may never see the floor for his current team. With both L.A. organizations in need […]

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard is rumored to be on the Sixers' radar heading into the 2021-22 season.

Of course, a trade involving Lillard […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoVictor Oladipo May Not Play Next Season
Guard Victor Oladipo (quadriceps) could miss the entire 2021-22 season. Oladipo was once considered one of the top up-and-coming young stars in the league, primarily after he averaged 23.1 points per game with the Pacers during the 2018 campaign. However, constant quad injuries and surgeries have derailed his career, and as a result, he's appeared […]

Baltimore Orioles pitcher Hunter Harvey (shoulder) is considered day-to-day. The 26-year-old was due to enter the game against Houston on Wednesday night, but he was ultimately held out after experiencing right shoulder discomfort while warming up. The news is concerning, primarily since he has already spent most of the year on the 60-day IL because […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoKolten Wong Aggravates Calf Issue
Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Kolten Wong (calf) exited Thursday's matchup against Pittsburgh. The timing isn't good, primarily since the veteran missed three games already this week because of the ailment. With the calf tightness not going away, it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that Wong may be nearing a stint on the 10-day injured list. […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoBogdan Bogdanovic Available For Game 5
Atlanta Hawks forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) is available to play against the Bucks on Thursday evening. Bogdanovic has been a frequent occupant on the team's official injury report over the last few weeks but has continued to play despite the ailment.

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (eye) will be in the lineup for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Thursday night.

Dennis Clausen 3 years agoTrae Young Out For Game 5
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (foot) won't be available for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Hawks. While Young reported that he is feeling better, he still isn't healthy enough to suit up as he continues to deal with a bruised right foot. With the series knotted up, there is a chance […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoPatrick Wisdom Dealing With Neck Tightness
Chicago Cubs infielder Patrick Wisdom (neck) is considered day-to-day. The 29-year-old left Wednesday's matchup against the Brewers after a collision with Milwaukee outfielder Tyrone Taylor.

Dennis Clausen 3 years agoKole Calhoun Removed From Rehab Appearance
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun (hamstring) was removed from Tuesday's contest at Triple-A Reno. This surely isn't the news that fantasy managers wanted to hear, primarily since the veteran appeared to be inching his way toward a return sometime in July after undergoing hamstring surgery a few months ago. The 33-year-old was playing well before […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoIan Anderson Has Upside Against The Mets
Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Ian Anderson will be on the bump against the Mets on Thursday. While Anderson's efficiency hasn't been captured by his 5-4 record this season, his 3.42 ERA makes him a viable option in nearly all fantasy formats. In June, the righty played relatively well, sporting a 3.71 ERA while averaging over […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoChristian Yelich Disappoints Again On Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich didn't play well during Wednesday's win over the Cubs. The 29-year-old went hitless against Chicago, going 0-for-5 while striking out three times. The veteran continues to disappoint and is a shade of what he was just a few seasons ago, currently batting .247 throughout 154 at-bats. While Yelich is playing […]

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) is expected to miss the remainder of the Western Conference Finals.

Dennis Clausen 3 years agoTrae Young Working To Play In Game 5
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (foot) is continuing his rehab effort as he works his way toward a potential Game 5 return. The 22-year-old is currently dealing with a bone bruise in his right foot, which kept him from seeing the floor during Game 4 on Tuesday night. Despite Young's shoddy shooting numbers, he has […]

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (nose) is listed as available for Wednesday's matchup against the Clippers. Booker suffered a nasal fracture after colliding with Patrick Beverley in Game 2. He struggled throughout the following two games as a result, but he bounced back on Monday night to finish with 31 points while shooting 4-for-6 from […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoCam Reddish Likely To See More Minutes
Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish was going to be a part of the team's rotation in Game 4 against the Bucks, regardless of Trae Young's (foot) availability, according to head coach Nate McMillan. Reddish was an infrequent presence throughout the first three games of the series, but he made up for it on Tuesday by […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoKawhi Leonard Out For Game 6
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't play in Game 6 against Phoenix. This isn't news, primarily since the veteran is rumored to be dealing with a significant right knee injury. Without Leonard in the mix, it should continue to be business as usual, with Paul George monopolizing the offensive chances. Reggie Jackson, who […]

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) left Tuesday's matchup against the Hawks. The multi-time MVP suffered a hyperextended left knee in the second half, and he required assistance back to the locker room, where he was subsequently ruled out for the rest of the game. The Freak had a productive outing before his premature departure, […]

Dennis Clausen 3 years agoJuan Soto Goes Yard In Win Over Tampa
Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto helped lead his team to a 4-3 win over the Rays on Tuesday night. It didn't take long for the 22-year-old to make a dent on the fantasy end, blasting a 378-foot shot to right field off of Rich Hill in the first inning. He also struck out twice, but […]
Dennis Clausen 3 years agoTyler Naquin Unlikely To Start On Tuesday
Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (wrist) is unlikely to start on Tuesday against San Diego. The 30-year-old is currently dealing with right wrist soreness, and he also wasn't in the lineup on Monday, opening the door for Shogo Akiyama to get some extra work out in center field. Although Naquin might be available off the […]
