Blake Treinen Throws Bullpen Session Wednesday
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said pitcher Blake Treinen (shoulder) threw a "normal" bullpen session on Wednesday and could face live hitters soon.

Rhys Hoskins' X-Rays Come Back Clean
Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (hand) had X-rays on his right hand come back negative after leaving Wednesday's win over the Miami Marlins. He is not expected to play in the series finale against Miami on Thursday. The 29-year-old exited Wednesday's game early after being hit by a pitch on his right hand during […]
Tony Gonsolin Throws Bullpen Session Wednesday
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tony Gonsolin (forearm) threw a bullpen session on Wednesday. According to manager Dave Roberts, the 28-year-old's bullpen results were "encouraging," and he feels Gonsolin can come back and contribute "in some capacity" this year. The right-hander owns a 16-1 record with a 2.10 ERA, 0.86 WHIP, and a 116:35 K: BB […]
Luis Arraez Removed With Hamstring Tightness

The 25-year-old sustained the hamstring injury while on the bases, and he was removed from the game the following inning. The severity of his injury is […]
Carlos Rodon Secures 13th Victory Wednesday
San Francisco Giants starter Carlos Rodon dominated the Atlanta Braves for five innings on Wednesday, giving up an unearned run on two hits while striking out eight and walking one.

Ryan McMahon Collects A Pair Of Hits Wednesday
Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon had two hits in five at-bats during Wednesday's 3-0 shutout win over the Chicago White Sox. He also doubled and scored a run. McMahon's again putting up mediocre numbers, slashing .248/.333/.410 with 16 HRs, 60 runs, 62 RBI, and seven stolen bases over 135 games. His fantasy value has […]
Rhys Hoskins Leaves Game After Hit By Pitch
Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (hand) was removed from Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins after he was hit on the right hand by a pitch in the third inning of play. Hoskins has a bruise and is going for X-rays. Fantasy managers and the Phillies can ill-afford a serious injury to Hoskins at […]
Brandon Lowe Dealing With Back Inflammation
Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said that second baseman Brandon Lowe's (back) MRI exam showed some inflammation in his back, and he's seeking additional medical opinions to determine the best course of action. The Rays remain hopeful that Lowe will play again this year, but fantasy managers shouldn't be holding out as much hope, […]
Tyler Glasnow To Make More Rehab Starts
Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) came out of his second minor league rehab appearance on Tuesday well, but he will make "multiple" more outings for Triple-A Durham. In his two short rehab outings for Durham, the 29-year-old starting pitcher has given up a run while walking three and striking […]
Nelson Cruz Out With Eye Inflammation
Washington Nationals designated hitter Nelson Cruz (eye) has inflammation in his left eye and is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Baltimore Orioles. His doctor gave him eye drops for treatment, and skipper Dave Martinez said Cruz is day-to-day. Fantasy managers need to remove him from their daily lineups. The 42-year-old left […]
Yordan Alvarez Is Fine
Houston Astros outfielder Yordan Alvarez (hand) clarified that he wasn't out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers due to hand soreness, as was previously reported. Alvarez was getting a normal day of rest on Wednesday and was available off the bench. He'll be back in the lineup on Thursday for the […]
Cade Cavalli Cleared To Throw
Washington Nationals rookie right-hander Cade Cavalli (shoulder) has been cleared to throw and played catch on Wednesday, according to manager Dave Martinez. The goal is to get Cavalli back on the mound before the offseason, but Martinez said that probably won't come in an actual game. The Nationals won't rush their No. 4 prospect back […]
Aroldis Chapman Expected To Return Friday
New York Yankees relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman (leg) will rejoin the team in Milwaukee and is expected to be activated from the injured list on Friday for the start of a series against the Brewers, according to skipper Aaron Boone. Chapman has been away from the team since Aug. 19 and landed on the injured […]
Red Sox Not Rushing Nathan Eovaldi
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (shoulder) is on track to throw another live batting practice session on Sunday, and he could still make a minor league rehab outing before he returns to Boston's rotation. The team isn't rushing him back. Eovaldi tossed a three-inning live batting practice session on Tuesday and continues to […]
Trevor Story Likely To Return Friday
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (heel) is likely to return to the starting lineup on Friday for the first game of a series against the Kansas City Royals. Story is missing another game on Wednesday against the division-rival New York Yankees, but he resumed baseball activities. The 29-year-old has now missed two games […]
Cristian Javier Holds Tigers To Two Hits On Wednesday
Houston Astros starter Cristian Javier was masterful Wednesday afternoon when his team edged out the Detroit Tigers 2-1. The right-hander threw six scoreless innings, striking out eight, walking none, and allowing just two hits to earn his ninth win of the season. Javier has made 22 starts this year while appearing out of the bullpen […]
Trevor Story Still Not Starting Wednesday
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (heel) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the division-rival New York Yankees. Story hasn't played since leaving the game early on Sunday due to left heel pain, but the team thinks there's a good chance he'll return on Friday after an off day on Thursday. […]
Ian Anderson Suffers Strained Oblique
Atlanta Braves right-hander Ian Anderson (oblique) strained his left oblique while pitching for Triple-A Gwinnett on Sept. 8 and will be out at least a month. It basically rules out any chance that he could have returned to Atlanta's rotation for the end of the regular season and even possibly the postseason now. Anderson was […]
Oscar Gonzalez 12 For His Last 27 At The Dish
Cleveland Guardians outfielder Oscar Gonzalez is enjoying a solid rookie campaign, including a big day on Wednesday when he was 3-for-4 with a solo home run to help beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-3. He's now 12 for his last 27 at-bats and is hitting .298 on the season. Gonzalez has also displayed some power, […]
Shane McClanahan To Return Thursday
The Tampa Bay Rays are set to reinstate left-hander Shane McClanahan (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to have him start on Thursday against the Toronto Blue Jays. McClanahan was eyeing a Thursday start after he threw a successful 50-pitch simulated game last Friday. The 25-year-old All-Star didn't make a minor league rehab start, though, […]
Cedric Mullins Getting A Breather Against Nats
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals and left-hander Patrick Corbin. Mullins is an everyday fantasy player, but he's struggled against southpaws this year, going 33-for-163 (.203) with three of his 14 home runs, 12 RBI and 44 strikeouts against them. With the 27-year-old getting […]
Mitch Haniger Still Out Wednesday
Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger (back) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the San Diego Padres. Haniger suffered a back injury on Sunday and may not be able to return to the lineup until after an off day on Thursday for the start of a weekend series against the Los Angeles Angels […]

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds recorded a pair of hits Wednesday when his club defeated the Cincinnati Reds 10-4. Both his hits were singles, and he scored a run over five at-bats.

It's his 22nd home run of the season. Mountcastle reached base four times in this game, going 2-for-3 at the […]
Travis d'Arnaud On The Bench Wednesday
Atlanta Braves catcher Travis d'Arnaud is on the bench for a Wednesday matchup with the San Francisco Giants and left-handed starting pitcher Carlos Rodon. The 33-year-old is enjoying a quality season at the plate for both Atlanta and fantasy managers, batting .269 with a .322 on-base percentage and 17 home runs in 369 plate appearances. […]
Ian Happ Takes Jacob DeGrom Deep
Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ took New York Mets starting pitcher Jacob deGrom deep Tuesday night, getting the scoring started in an eventual 4-1 victory. Happ went 2-for-4 with the home run and two runs scored. Even after this performance, Happ is slashing just .194/.275/.444 in 40 September plate appearances, so fantasy managers will hope […]
Adrian Sampson Defeats Mets Tuesday
Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Adrian Sampson earned his second win of the season Tuesday, outdueling Jacob deGrom to help the team beat the New York Mets 4-1. Sampson threw six innings, allowing no runs on two hits and four walks. He struck out three batters. While Sampson does not have a very high fantasy ceiling, […]
Triston Casas Isn't In Wednesday's Lineup
Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas isn't in the team's lineup on Wednesday for a matchup with the New York Yankees and left-hander Nestor Cortes. Casas is batting .125 with a .250 on-base percentage, two home runs, and a stolen base in 28 plate appearances for Boston. Instead, Christian Arroyo will hit seventh and […]
