Boston Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu (undisclosed) will remain out of the starting lineup for Game 1 of their double-header against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday afternoon. Abreu was a late scratch on Saturday due to an undisclosed injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Game 2 later this evening. In the opening game, Rob Refsnyder will cover right field and bat sixth. Abreu has enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign, holding a .500/.621/1.000 slash line with two doubles and three home runs through eight contests. He has held a 7:2 BB:K and swiped one bag. He has tallied at least one hit in all but two contests. When healthy, fantasy managers should view Abreu as a must-start option given his hot start. If he cannot return later on Sunday, he will look to enter the starting nine on Monday evening, when they face the Blue Jays.UPDATE: Abreu is reportedly fine and is likely to play Game 2 of a doubleheader on Sunday evening.

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger (back) is returning to the starting nine on Sunday when the Yankees conclude a three-game set against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bellinger has missed the first two games of this series due to back stiffness. However, the 29-year-old was able to be cleared for action. He will bat second and cover right field, which will move Aaron Judge to the designated hitter spot. Through his first six games as a Yankee, Bellinger has held a .238/.296/.381 slash line with one long ball. He has brought in six runs and scored five. Bellinger has typically seen time in center field, but given how well Trent Grisham has performed lately, he will continue to hold that spot in the lineup. Grisham has gone deep three times over his last three games. The Yankees are a top lineup to target in DFS facing Pittsburgh southpaw Andrew Heaney.

Washington Nationals outfielder Jacob Young is out of the lineup again on Sunday against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks at Nationals Park. Dylan Crews will slide over to center field again and hit ninth, while Alex Call is making another start in right field and will bat seventh against Arizona right-hander Corbin Burnes. The Nationals have held Young out of the lineup the last two days while he works to clean up his hitting mechanics after starting the 2025 season with a .067/.263/.133 slash line with a double, two runs scored, a stolen base, three walks and two strikeouts in his first seven games. Manager Dave Martinez said that the 25-year-old will return to the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but fantasy managers in deeper leagues may want to keep him benched until he shows signs of breaking out of his early-season slump.

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (neck) went 1-for-3 as the designated hitter with a two-RBI single in a minor-league rehab game with Double-A Frisco on Saturday, and the plan is for him to play third base on Sunday and then travel with the team to Chicago for their series that starts on Monday at Wrigley Field against the Cubs. The 27-year-old is eligible to come off the injured list on Monday, so if he get through Sunday's rehab game without any setbacks, he could be activated and return to the starting lineup against the Cubbies. Jung deal with neck stiffness at the tail end of spring training but opened the year on the Opening Day roster before aggravating his neck after just two games. He went 3-for-7 with an RBI and a strikeout before landing on the IL, but it appears he could be returning soon. Jung has proven extremely injury-prone, but the power upside keeps him interesting in all fantasy formats.

The Athletic's Jen McCaffrey reports that Boston Red Sox right-hander Hunter Dobbins will start Game 2 of the team's doubleheader on Sunday evening at Fenway Park against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals, which will be his major-league debut. Manager Alex Cora said everyone else in the starting rotation will remain on turn, with Richard Fitts going on Monday against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays after Saturday's game against St. Louis was rained out. The 25-year-old Dobbins will most likely be sent to Triple-A Worcester after serving as the team's 27th man on Sunday. In his first start for the WooSox last Tuesday, Dobbins allowed five earned runs on three long balls while walking three and striking out two in just 3 2/3 innings of work. In his first major-league appearances, fantasy managers should stay away.
