The Milwaukee Brewers have placed relief pitcher Joakim Soria (groin) on the 10-day disabled list due to a right groin strain and activated right-hander Adrian Houser to take his spot on the active roster.

Ronald Jones II Struggles in First Preseason Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II rushed eight times on Thursday and only managed to gain nine yards. The bright side for the first year back was that one of those rushes put up six for Tampa Bay. Regardless, the line could have looked better. Despite how stiff his competition is, Jones has […]

Noah Spence Has Bulked Up In Offseason

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Noah Spence has reportedly put on 35 pounds this past offseason. Spence now weighs approximately 263 pounds which could benefit him throughout the year. The former second-round pick has dealt with labrum issues the past two seasons causing him to miss a plethora of games. Maybe this new weight level […]

Eloy Jimenez - How Hyped Should We Be?

It is difficult to not get excited about a player of Eloy Jimenez’s caliber, especially when there are rumblings that he may get the call up to the bigs soon. During an interview with 670TheScore in Chicago, White Sox Player Development Director Chris Getz stated that Jimenez is close to joining the big-league club. Getz […]

Chris Godwin Expected To Start Opposite Mike Evans

Tampa Bay Buccaneers second-year wide receiver Chris Godwin has reportedly won a starting job as the No. 2 receiver opposite Mike Evans. Godwin showed out in the limited playing time he earned last season. The rookie receiver totaled 34 catches, 525 yards, and one touchdown while only starting two games in 2017. Godwin's numbers should […]

DeSean Jackson to Work Out of Slot in 2018

It is being reported that Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson has been working primarily out of the slot during training camp. Jackson had himself a rough 2017 season that featured the lowest yards per reception of his career. This could be attributed to the change in scenery to a team like Tampa Bay that lacked […]

David Price Finally Keeps the Yankees At Bay

Red Sox starting pitcher David Price has been notoriously poor against the New York Yankees throughout his career. Price has bounced around the AL East facing the Yankees through various times of the year with the Rays, Blue Jays and now Red Sox. For the first time this season, he has thrown a quality start […]

Aroldis Chapman Blows Save On Sunday

Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman blew a three-run lead against the Red Sox on Sunday. Chapman left the bases loaded for J.D. Martinez who promptly singled up the middle of the field to drive in two runs, then gave up a bouncer to Xander Bogaerts that was mishandled by third baseman Miguel Andujar. The Yankees high-priced […]

Masahiro Tanaka Ties Season High In Strikeouts Sunday

Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka was solid in Sunday's outing against Boston. Despite being pulled before pitching five full innings, Tanaka struck-out a season-high, nine, and allowed only one run. His pitch count ran up to 97 and was unfortunately pulled in the bottom of the fifth. Tanaka allowed a few hits (six), but his […]

Andrew Benintendi Knocks In Game-Winner

Boston Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi drove in the winning run in the 10th inning of Sunday's series finale versus the Yankees to complete the sweep. The walk-off RBI single was his third hit of the game and first fantasy counting stat of the day. Benintendi has been hot just about all season long and […]

Bryce Harper Leaves Game With Injury

Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper (leg) was removed from Saturday's contest after reportedly "limping" around the outfield. Harper was struck in the leg by a pitch during his at-bat and was replaced by Adam Eaton after failing to chase down a fly ball. He is likely undergoing tests to determine the severity but from what it […]

Tucker Barnhart Ejected Saturday

Reds catcher Tucker Barnhart was ejected from the second game of Saturday's doubleheader due to a dispute with the home plate umpire. Andy Fletcher's strike zone upset Barnhart enough to argue after Matt Adams home run. He was subsequently thrown out and replaced by Curt Casali mid-game but should be back for Sunday's contest again […]

Tyler O'Neill Scratched, Jose Martinez Starting

Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neill (groin) has been scratched from Saturday's lineup due to groin discomfort. There were no reports of an injury for O'Neill up until today, so he may only be day-to-day. The Cardinals outfield had already been worn thin with the departure of Tommy Pham and injury to Dexter Fowler. Now with O'Neill […]

Dee Gordon Not in Lineup Saturday

Mariners' second baseman is not in Saturday's lineup due to a sore ankle. Gordon twisted his ankle a few days back but managed to play in Friday's game. He told reporters after the game that he was experiencing some soreness so today's absence is likely just a rest day. Andrew Romine will start in his […]

Carlos Carrasco Cruises Through Twins Lineup

Indians starter Carlos Carrasco pitched masterfully against Minnesota on Wednesday. Carrasco gave up four hits with no walks or runs and punched out 10 batters in 7 1/3 innings. The Indians only managed to score twice, but luckily that was enough to earn Carrasco the win. Cookie has been dominant over the course of his […]

Bucs Extend GM Jason Licht Until 2019

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have extended general manager Jason Licht for just one more season. This deal is essentially a short leash for Licht who has had trouble putting a winning team together in his time at the helm of the front office. Licht has had a seemingly successful offseason. He's made solid draft picks, […]

Trevor Bauer Reaches Double-Digit Wins

Indians starting pitcher Trevor Bauer had another great outing Tuesday. Bauer pitched 6 and 1/3 innings against the Twins en route to his 10th win of the year; an impressive feat considering that Bauer typically struggles to get run support. His four strikeouts on the day are low for his standards, but with just two […]

Yonder Alonso is Trending Up

Indians first baseman Yonder Alonso has been on a tear this past week. On Sunday against the Tigers, he homered once again and drove in three runs on three hits. Just over the past four days, he has accumulated five runs, three home runs, and seven RBI. Alonso is pretty streaky, so this torrid pace […]

Corey Kluber Gets a Confidence Boost

Indians ace Corey Kluber performed as he should against the Tigers on Sunday. Kluber pitched 7 1/3 innings and only allowed one run en route to a win. Although no new information on his knee has been released for over a week, concern still lingers with Kluber's health. His Ks have been trending down since […]

Adrian Beltre to Waive No-Trade Clause for "Right Deal"

Adrian Beltre has agreed with Texas Rangers to waive his no-trade clause for the right deal. The 39-year old Beltre is still a valuable piece to a major league roster but provides no on-field value to the Texas Rangers in 2018 as they are looking to sell before Tuesday's deadline. Beltre is a free agent […]

Mitch Moreland Returns to Lineup Saturday

Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (knee) will return to the starting lineup Saturday against the Twins. Moreland missed the past three games with a knee injury and was replaced in the starting lineup by Steve Pearce. Since Pearce's addition to the roster a month ago, the Red Sox have been platooning Moreland against right-handed […]

Yasiel Puig Activated, Alex Verdugo Optioned

The Los Angeles Dodgers have activated outfielder Yasielf Puig from the 10-day disabled list and optioned Alex Verdugo back to Triple-A. Puig was on the DL for a few weeks with a mild oblique strain but now returns to a Dodgers lineup that has since added Manny Machado. Puig should slide back into the bottom […]

Mike Clevinger Dealing With Illness

Indians starting pitcher Mike Clevinger is dealing with an illness and unsure whether he will take the hill on Saturday. This is not the worst news in the world as he may be fine by game-time. However, if he is forced to miss his start, then there should be concern that he may be skipped […]

Adam Eaton Not in Starting Lineup Saturday

Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton is riding the bench Saturday in Miami. Michael A. Taylor will replace Eaton in the starting lineup and bat seventh against right-hander Trevor Richards. Taylor has been a menace on the base paths this season but just hasn't gotten the consistent playing time lately to take advantage of his speed. Expect […]

Asdrubal Cabrera Starting and Batting Fifth Saturday

Phillies recent trade acquisition Asdrubal Cabrera is in the starting line up for Saturday's game against the Reds. Cabrera was recently acquired from the Mets in exchange for prospects and will see himself regularly starting in Philadelphia's infield going forward. Today he finds himself at shortstop, though he should expect to start at second base […]

Michael Fulmer to Resume Throwing Tuesday

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Michael Fulmer (oblique) will resume his throwing program on Tuesday. Fulmer is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery from a left oblique strain. If all goes well, he should see himself back on the mound in the coming weeks. Fulmer has been at the center of trade talks for the […]

Francisco Lindor Doubles Down on Home Runs Friday

Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor came to play against the Tigers on Friday. Both of his hits were sent into the stands as he went 2-for-5 and drove in three runs with both dingers. Lindor had not exactly been slumping up until yesterday, however, his power had been missing for a few weeks. Lindor's last home […]

Carlos Carrasco Finding His Form

Indians starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco has now made back-to-back quality starts with eight strikeouts. This is the Carrasco fantasy owners drafted and hopefully, he can keep it up throughout the rest of the season. Carrasco pitched for 6.1 innings against the Tigers on Friday. He allowed nine baserunners and only gave up one earned run. […]

Brad Hand Earns First Save in Cleveland

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Brad Hand closed out his first game for Cleveland on Wednesday against Pittsburgh. Hand pitched 1.1 innings of relief and struck out three without letting any batters on. The all-star reliever has been stellar all season and now provides Cleveland with much-needed bullpen depth. Typically, Cody Allen would be the one […]

Trevor Bauer Lights-Out Against Pirates

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Trevor Bauer put on a show against the scorching Pittsburgh Pirates. He pitched seven shutout innings, only allowed four baserunners and struck out 10; effectively ending the Pirates 11-game win streak. Bauer more than made up for his last start against Texas in which he walked five and got pulled after […]
