Anthony Rizzo To Visit Back Specialist

New York Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo (back) is remaining in California in order to visit a back specialist, according to manager Aaron Boone. It sounds like the Yankees could be without Rizzo for at least the weekend series. The 33-year-old continues to deal with lingering back issues. Fantasy managers shouldn't be shocked if Rizzo […]

Glenn Otto Looks Strong In No-Decision

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Glenn Otto put together a fairly strong outing against the Boston Red Sox on Thursday. The right-hander struck out a career-high eight batters over five innings of work. Otto also allowed three runs on four hits and was given a no-decision after the bullpen melted down. The 26-year-old is posting a […]

Anthony Volpe Promoted To Triple-A

New York Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe is making the move up to the Triple-A level. The Yankees top prospect struggled heavily during the beginning of the season. Luckily, he has bounced back with 18 home runs and 44 stolen bases while in Double-A. Oswaldo Peraza has been recalled to the big league club, so the […]

Giants Discussing Extension With Joc Pederson

San Francisco Giants outfielder Joc Pederson might be sticking around with the organization past the 2022 season. Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi mentioned that he has discussed an extension with Pederson. The 30-year-old signed a one-year deal worth $6 million this offseason. He is well-deserving of a multi-year deal after what he has […]

Jaylen Waddle Should Be Ready For Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (lower body) will be ready for Week 1, according to head coach Mike McDaniels. The 23-year-old hasn't been practicing for several weeks now. However, the Dolphins have mentioned that his absence is precautionary. It's hard to believe that Waddle has been held out of practice for multiple weeks as […]

Wyatt Teller Back At Practice

Cleveland Browns offensive guard Wyatt Teller (knee) was able to get back on the practice field on Thursday. This is great news after Teller suffered a knee injury last Saturday during their preseason finale. Luckily, this appears to be a minor injury, so Teller should be fine for Week 1. The All-Pro guard is a […]

Andre Dillard Suffers Broken Arm

Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Andre Dillard (arm) suffered a significant injury during Thursday's practice. The former No. 22 overall pick suffered a broken arm, which is certainly a blow with the regular season about to begin. The expectation is that Dillard will be able to still play this season. Although, he's expected to be the […]

Jameson Williams Ahead Of Schedule

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) appears to be doing quite well in his recovery process. General manager Brad Holmes believes that Williams is making great progress and could accelerate his return date. The 21-year-old will miss at least the first four games of the season after being placed on the injured reserve. The […]

Lakers Showing Interest In Cam Reddish

New York Knicks guard Cam Reddish might not be with the team for much longer. The organization appears to be seeking a trade partner for Reddish this offseason. The Los Angeles Lakers are reportedly interested in acquiring Reddish. This isn't the first time that we've heard the Lakers are interested in Reddish. The 23-year-old still […]

Grant Williams Could See More Minutes

Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams could see an uptick in playing time to begin the season. Fellow forward Danilo Gallinari (knee) could miss some time, which means Williams is in line for more minutes. There's a chance that the Celtics move Williams over to the five spot more often next season. The team considers Williams […]

Jerome Robinson Signs Deal With Warriors

The Golden State Warriors have reached an agreement on a training camp deal with guard Jerome Robinson. The former 13th overall pick will get a chance to compete for a bench spot in camp. Last season, Robinson spent his time with the Warriors G League affiliate in Santa Cruz. He never really lived up to […]

Will Denzel Mims Be Traded? Is He Worth Drafting for Fantasy If Traded

Recently, New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims requested a trade. This shouldn't come as a shock considering Mims has been underutilized during his two seasons with the team. Still young, Mims is looking for a new start elsewhere, but are the Jets ready to let him go? Coming into the preseason, Mims appeared to […]

Greg Dulcich Placed On Injured Reserve

Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) has been placed on the injured reserve on Tuesday. The third-round pick was quickly gaining hype during training camp. That will come to a halt as Dulcich will miss at least the first four games of the season. That means, Albert Okwuegbunam could see more looks coming his […]

Malik Willis Named Backup Quarterback

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis will open the season as the backup quarterback. Clearly, the Titans have enough faith in their rookie that they released Logan Woodside. Willis will serve as the primary backup to Ryan Tannehill to begin the season. During the preseason, Willis threw two touchdowns and one interception while rushing for 159 […]

Texans Move On From Chris Conley

Houston Texans wide receiver Chris Conley was released by the organization on Tuesday. He re-signed with the team in March, but apparently didn't show enough to warrant keeping on the roster. Now, the Texans only have four active wide receivers on their roster as they head into Week 1. Possibly, the team decides to bring […]

Packers Release Patrick Taylor

Green Bay Packers running back Patrick Taylor has been released by the organization on Tuesday. This was an odd move considering Taylor was the third string back in Green Bay. Now, the Packers only have Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon in their backfield. Possibly, the Packers decide to bring back Taylor after moving around other […]

Keelan Cole Cut By Raiders

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Keelan Cole has been released by the organization. This is a bit of a shocking move to see Cole getting released. The Raiders decided to keep Mack Hollins, Tyron Johnson, and DJ Turner over Cole. Last season, Cole hauled in 28 receptions for 449 receiving yards, and one touchdown in […]

Michael Gallup Officially Avoids PUP List

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (knee) officially won't be placed on the PUP list. This was the expectation, but the team has made it official now. The 26-year-old won't be ready for the season opener, but should return within the first four weeks of the regular season. Once he's fully healthy, Gallup is expected […]

Kenneth Walker III Slowly Progressing

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is reportedly making progress. Head coach Pete Carroll mentioned that the Seahawks are taking it one day at a time with Walker. The rookie back is recovering from a hernia injury that knocked him out for the entire preseason. It sounds like his status for Week 1 […]

Gleyber Torres Getting The Night Off

New York Yankees infielder Gleyber Torres (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. This appears to be a routine day off for the young infielder. Torres is hitting .177/.202/.250 over his last 24 games in August. He could certainly use a day off to help get him […]

Yasmani Grandal Likely To Be Activated On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal (knee) is expected to be activated from the injured list on Wednesday. The 33-year-old has been hitting the ball well during his minor league rehab assignment. Although, it's uncertain how much he'll be able to catch due to his lingering left knee issue. Eloy Jimenez has been serving as […]

Isaac Paredes Scratched On Tuesday

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Isaac Paredes (undisclosed) has been scratched from the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Miami Marlins. The organization has not given a reason as to why Paredes has been removed from the lineup. Hopefully, this is only a minor injury, because Paredes has been hot at the plate. In the […]

Jorge Polanco Remains Out On Tuesday

Minnesota Twins infielder Jorge Polanco (knee) will remain out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The switch-hitting infielder is dealing with left knee soreness. He hasn't been able to play since Saturday, but is hopeful to avoid a trip to the injured list. In the meantime, Nick Gordon will […]

Carlos Carrasco Could Return Soon

New York Mets starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco (oblique) could return by the end of the week. The right-hander was able to throw a 55-pitch simulated game without any issues on Monday. That being said, it sounds like the Mets are going to allow Carrasco to skip a minor league rehab assignment. The right-hander has been […]

Ken Waldichuk To Make Debut On Thursday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Ken Waldichuk will be called up to make the start against the Washington Nationals on Thursday. Manager Mark Kotsay confirmed that the left-hander will be one of the team's September 1st callups. The A's acquired Waldichuk as part of the Frankie Montas deal from earlier in the season. 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 […]
