The left-hander is […]

Clayton Kershaw To Return On Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw (back) will return to the starting rotation on Thursday, according to manager Dave Roberts. The veteran left-hander was able to throw a successful 70-pitch simulated game over the weekend. He has been dealing with lower back pain, but appears ready to return against the New York Mets on […]

Luis Robert Not In The Lineup

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert (wrist) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. The young outfielder hasn't started a game since last Thursday due to a lingering wrist issue. Although, it sounds like Robert is making steady progress. The hope is that Robert can avoid the injured […]

Nick Castellanos Absent On Tuesday

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos (toe) remains out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. It sounds like the right-handed slugger is still working through a case of turf toe. This shouldn't sideline him for long and it sounds like he is available off the bench on Tuesday. Fantasy managers might […]

Lions Cut Tom Kennedy

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tom Kennedy has been cut by the organization on Monday. This doesn't come as a surprise considering Kennedy had an uphill battle to begin the preseason. Despite that, Kennedy played well, hauling in 16 receptions for 143 yards and a couple of touchdowns. That still wasn't enough for the Lions to […]

Panthers Bring In Five Kickers

The Carolina Panthers are looking for a new kicker after Zane Gonzalez (groin) suffered a significant injury. The organization reportedly brought in Taylor Bertolet, Brian Johnson, Chase McLaughlin, Eddy Pineiro, and Matthew Wright for workouts. The Panthers are unsure if Gonzalez will miss the entire season, but it sounds like he won't be ready for […]

La'Mical Perine Waived By Jets

New York Jets running back La'Mical Perine has been waived by the organization on Monday. The former fourth round pick rushed for 263 yards and two touchdowns through 14 games with the Jets. He only carried the ball 72 times, so he wasn't given much of a chance to succeed. Perine is only 24 years […]

Tim Boyle Released By Lions

Detroit Lions quarterback Tim Boyle has been cut by the organization. The 27-year-old apparently lost the battle for the backup spot to David Blough. This move saves the Lions $1.75 million in cap space. Possibly, the Lions decide to bring back Boyle on a cheaper deal. For now, Blough is expected to be the backup […]

Chris Streveler Released By Jets

New York Jets quarterback Chris Streveler has been waived by the organization. This is a shame considering Streveler played well during the preseason. The 27-year-old completed 24-of-33 passing attempts for 277 yards with five touchdowns and one interception during the preseason. Sadly, the Jets don't have room on their roster with Zach Wilson, Joe Flacco, […]

Blue Jays Bring Back Bradley Zimmer

The Toronto Blue Jays claimed outfielder Bradley Zimmer off waivers from the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday. The former top prospect spent some time with the Phillies before getting cut by the team. Zimmer will now return to Toronto and serve as depth in the outfield after playing for them earlier this year. The 29-year-old will […]

Teoscar Hernandez Not Playing Versus Cubs

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Hernandez returned to the lineup on Sunday after missing the two games prior due to a left foot contusion. The assumption is that his absence is just rest and not his foot issue acting up. […]

Tony Gonsolin Expects To Have Minimal Injured List Stint

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tony Gonsolin (forearm) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday. The right-hander mentioned that he felt some tightness after his last start. Luckily, Gonsolin won't need an MRI and this doesn't sound too serious of an injury. He believes that he'll be ready to return to the field […]

Corbin Carroll Recalled On Monday

Arizona Diamondbacks outfield prospect Corbin Carroll has been officially recalled ahead of Monday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. This was the expectation as the 22-year-old is clearly ready for the big league level. He was hitting .307/.425/.611 with 24 home runs and 11 stolen bases in the minors this season. The assumption is that Carroll […]

Chase Anderson To Start On Monday

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Chase Anderson has been recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Monday. The right-hander signed a minor league deal with the organization last week. The 34-year-old will get a spot start here, but it's uncertain if he'll stick in the rotation long term. Regardless, Anderson shouldn't be viewed as a reliable fantasy option. […]

Tyler Allgeier Projected As Third-String Back

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier opened up some eyes during the preseason. The rookie back scored two touchdowns during their preseason finale, which was great to see. Right now, The Athletic has Allgeier projected as the team's third-down back. Cordarrelle Patterson is listed as the starter with Damien Williams as the primary backup. The […]

Logan Thomas Likely To Return By Week 2

Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas (knee) was activated off the PUP list early last week. He has done a fantastic job of working his way back from a torn ACL and MCL that he suffered in December. There is some hope that Thomas could get on the field for the season opener. However, it […]

Kadarius Toney Doesn't Play During Preseason Finale

New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney (knee/hamstring) sat out during their preseason finale on Sunday. Surprisingly, Toney dressed and warmed up, but didn't see the field at all. Head coach Brian Daboll mentioned that Toney wasn't ready to play, which makes it tough to know his status going into cut day. Last season, Toney […]

Mac Jones Could Struggle In Second Season

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones has been fairly mediocre throughout the preseason. To be fair, the Patriots as an entire offense have looked rough during their three preseason games. There's still time to work out the issues, but Jones might not be the player they thought he was. Chad Graff of The Athletic believes […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Likely To Have Extended Role

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson could be in for a heavier workload this season. Fellow running back Ty Montgomery (ankle) went down during the preseason finale on Friday. The organization has been vague about Montgomery, so it's uncertain how much time he'll miss. That being said, Stevenson could end up as the primary […]

Ozzie Albies To Begin Rehab Assignment Soon

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies (foot) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment this week. The 25-year-old has been sidelined since June due to a broken foot. He has been progressing nicely and it sounds like he is only days away from getting back into game action. The expectation is that he'll […]

Javier Baez Pulled Early On Sunday

Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Baez (back) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Texas Rangers. Manager A.J. Hinch mentioned he removed Baez in the seventh inning due to back spasms. It sounds like he was taken out of the contest for precautionary reasons. It's also worth noting that this is a lingering […]

Corbin Carroll Expected To Be Recalled

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll is expected to be recalled prior to Monday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 22-year-old is well deserving of a promotion after the season he has put together. Carroll is hitting .307/.425/.611 with 24 homers, 62 RBI and 31 stolen bases in Triple-A Reno this season. The assumption is that […]

Evan Longoria Considered Day-To-Day

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Minnesota Twins. The 36-year-old was pulled out of the contest due to left hamstring tightness. It sounds like the organization took him out of the game as a precautionary measure. The veteran slugger could very well miss […]

Josh Hader Allows Six Runs On Sunday

San Diego Padres relief pitcher Josh Hader put together his worst outing to date on Sunday against the Kansas City Royals. The left-hander was already struggling, but completely unraveled here. He gave up five hits, walking two batters, and allowing six runs, while recording one out. The Padres have already moved on from Hader as […]

Brian Robinson Injured In Attempted Robbery

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson was shot during an attempted robbery on Sunday. The rookie back was reportedly shot multiple times, but appears to be in stable condition. The early reports are this is a non-life threatening injury, which is great to hear. There should be more details on this situation soon, but at […]

Elijah Mitchell Gets Back To Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) was able to get back on the practice field on Sunday. It appears that Mitchell is back to being healthy after dealing with a lingering hamstring issue. He was force to miss all three of the preseason contests, but that shouldn't be a concern to fantasy managers. […]

Deebo Samuel Misses Sunday's Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (knee) sat out of practice on Sunday. The stud wideout is reportedly dealing with a minor knee contusion. He only played 10 snaps during their preseason finale against the Houston Texans. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned with the regular season two weeks away. Samuel has plenty of […]

Cam Akers Isn't Quite Ready Yet

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers was unable to do any running during a workout on Sunday, according to head coach Sean McVay. He has been sidelined a few weeks due to an undisclosed soft-tissue injury. The organizations doesn't consider this a serious injury, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned. Although, it's uncertain […]

Darrell Henderson Jr. Runs At Full Speed

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson Jr. was able to run at full speed on Sunday, according to head coach Sean McVay. This is great news as Henderson is recovering from an undisclosed soft-tissue injury. The hope is that Henderson will be able to practice this upcoming week. He should suit up for Week […]

T.J. Watt Leaves Early During Preseason Finale

Pittsburgh Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt (knee) was unable to finish Sunday's preseason finale against the Detroit Lions. The superstar pass rusher was hit low on a block from T.J. Hockenson. Luckily, Watt was able to get off the field under his own power. At first glance, this doesn't seem to be a serious injury. […]
