Jake Lamb Reassigned To Minors Camp

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Jake Lamb has been reassigned to minor league camp. The Dodgers plan on carrying 16 pitchers, so that doesn't leave too many roster spots left for position players. Both Lamb and Kevin Pillar are expected to miss the roster with Edwin Rios likely snagging the final roster spot. The 31-year-old plans […]

Robert Suarez Likely To Open Season As Closer

San Diego Padres relief pitcher Robert Suarez is expected to open the season as the closer. Manager Bob Melvin hasn't confirmed Suarez will be the closer, but said he loves the fact that Suarez is used to closing. The Padres appear to have a ton of confidence in the 31-year-old rookie reliever. Suarez has posted […]

Kevin Pillar Unlikely To Make Roster

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Kevin Pillar is unlikely to make the Opening Day roster. Manager Dave Roberts mentioned that he plans to carry 16 pitchers going into the season. That means, the Dodgers will only have 12 position players on their roster. The last roster spot is expected to go to Edwin Rios. That being […]

Shogo Akiyama Won't Make Opening Day Roster

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Shogo Akiyama has been informed that he won't make the Opening Day roster. The 33-year-old outfielder has the right to refuse his assignment to Triple-A. Akiyama has the right to elect free agency, but it's uncertain if he'd draw much interest in free agency. He hit .224/.320/.274 with no homers, 21 RBI, […]

Carmelo Anthony Probable For Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Carmelo Anthony (illness) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The veteran forward was forced to sit out during their last contest due to a non-COVID related illness. His absence allowed more playing time for Malik Monk and Stanley Johnson. They'd once again be asked to step […]

Jordan Poole Continues To Succeed

Golden State Warriors guard Jordan Poole continued his success versus the Utah Jazz on Saturday. He recorded his 10th 30-point performance of the season and his second in as many days. The loss of Stephen Curry (foot) has forced Poole to play a bigger role in the rotation. Luckily, Poole has excelled and is providing […]

Hassan Whiteside Quiet In Return

Utah Jazz center Hassan Whiteside (foot) was able to make his return to the court on Saturday versus the Golden State Warriors. The big man had missed four games prior to that due to a minor bone spur fracture. Whiteside didn't offer much in terms of fantasy production during Saturday's loss. He finished with two […]

Zach LaVine Has No Issues Versus Miami

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) was able to suit up on Saturday despite dealing with a lingering injury. The star guard led the team in scoring with his 18th 30-point performance of the season. He finished with 33 points, five rebounds, and five assists in the loss to the Heat. LaVine has been a […]

Mike Conley Has Scoring Outburst On Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley put on a show during Saturday's loss to the Golden State Warriors. Prior to Saturday, Conley had gone eight straight games without scoring at least 20 points in a contest. That changed when Conley knocked down 10-of-18 shots from the floor and hit five shots from beyond the arc. The […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Won't Play Versus Knicks

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. This shouldn't come as much of a surprise as the Magic continue to tank with a few games left in the regular season. Chuma Okeke should continue to start and be a decent streaming option. Moritz […]

Caleb Martin Available On Saturday

Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (calf) will suit up for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He will return after missing each of the last two games due to a right calf issue. Max Strus (shoulder) and Gabe Vincent (toe) are expected to play as well on Saturday. That being said, the Heat should have […]

Dejounte Murray Questionable For Sunday

San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He sat out of Friday's game due to a non-COVID related illness. Tre Jones and Joshua Primo helped the Spurs beat the Blazers on Friday, so possibly they will be asked to do it again. Jones […]

Zach LaVine Will Suit Up On Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) will suit up for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. As expected, LaVine will play here despite dealing with a lingering knee issue. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Bulls limit LaVine somewhat until the playoffs begin. Fantasy managers should expect a normal workload from LaVine on Saturday, […]

Deandre Ayton To Rest On Sunday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (rest) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Suns are also resting Devin Booker and Jae Crowder with the playoffs quickly approaching. JaVale McGee should be a strong streaming option without Ayton available. He's normally a productive option as long as he is able to […]

Anthony Davis Listed As Questionable For Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Davis returned to the court on Friday and surprisingly played 37 minutes in that contest. That being said, it's not shocking to see him on the injury report for Sunday's contest. LeBron James (ankle) is also questionable […]

LeBron James Tagged As Questionable For Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The veteran forward continues to deal with a lingering ankle issue. However, James was able to suit up for Friday's game and played well during that contest. Anthony Davis (foot) is questionable for this game as […]

Evan Mobley Hopeful To Play Before Regular Season Concludes

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley (ankle) is hopeful to get back on the court before the end of the regular season, according to head coach J.B. Bickerstaff. Both Mobley and Jarrett Allen (finger) have a chance of playing before the playoffs. Cleveland is hopeful they can return in a week, which would allow them to […]

Xavien Howard Gets New Extension

Miami Dolphins defensive back Xavien Howard has agreed to a new extension with the organization. The three-time Pro Bowl corner agreed to a restructured contract last season. The assumption was that a new deal would be discussed in the offseason. That was the truth as Howard agreed to a five-year deal with $50 million in […]

Tyus Bowser Should Be Ready For Training Camp

Baltimore Ravens defensive end Tyus Bowser (Achilles) is expected to be ready for training camp, according to head coach John Harbaugh. The 26-year-old put together a fantastic season before tearing his Achilles in Week 17. Before that, Bowser had a career-high 59 tackles and led the team with seven sacks. He'll be seven months removed […]

Marlon Mack Joins Texans

The Houston Texans have signed running back Marlon Mack. The details of his deal have not been released yet. However, it's likely a short term deal, while the Texans retool their roster. The 26-year-old has played a total of seven games through the last two seasons. However, he rushed for 1,091 yards and scored eight […]

Lions Likely To Exercise Fifth-Year Option On T.J. Hockenson

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson is likely to be staying with the organization a little longer. Lions GM Brad Holmes mentioned they will likely exercise Hockenson's fifth-year option, assuming the two sides don't agree on a long term deal. The Lions will have until May 2 to finalize a deal with Hockenson. The 24-year-old […]

Damian Jones Posts Career-High 24 Points

Sacramento Kings center Damian Jones put together a fantastic performance against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday. This ended up being the perfect storm with the Rockets missing two centers and Jones getting 30-plus minutes. Jones hit 9-of-13 shots, nine rebounds, five assists, and four blocks in 34 minutes. Over the last five games, Jones has […]

Tyus Jones Drops 25 Points On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Tyus Jones put together one of his best games of the season versus the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday. Jones finished with 25 points, five rebounds, six assists, and two steals in 36 minutes of play. This was his first 25-point outing since February 15. The veteran guard has been asked to […]

Christian Wood Won't Play Again This Season

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of the regular season. The Rockets are going into full tank mode and are sitting Eric Gordon (groin) and Dennis Schroder (shoulder) as well. The loss of Wood means Alperen Sengun should continue to start and have solid streaming appeal. Kevin Porter […]

Anthony Davis Doubtful Against Jazz

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. The All-Star big man is targeting a return for Friday, but does have a chance of playing on Thursday. LeBron James (ankle) has already been ruled out, so the Lakers could certainly use Davis on the court. […]

Wenyen Gabriel Questionable For Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Wenyen Gabriel (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. He is currently considered day-to-day due to a left ankle sprain. LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out, so Gabriel should have a bigger role, assuming he can play. Although, it's tough to know which players on […]

Robinson Cano To Play First Base On Thursday

New York Mets infielder Robinson Cano is expected to play first base during Thursday's spring training matchup. Cano has only made 14 appearances at first base, which were all with the Seattle Mariners in 2018. Jeff McNeil should have the second base job locked up, so the Mets will look to increase Cano's versatility. The […]

Brandon Belt Could Return This Weekend

San Francisco Giants first baseman Brandon Belt (knee) was able to run the bases on Wednesday. The veteran infielder could return to the starting lineup this weekend. He has been dealing with lingering knee soreness, but manager Gabe Kapler expects Belt to be ready for Opening Day. Barring any setbacks, Belt could make his spring […]

Framber Valdez Gets Opening Day Start

Houston Astros starting pitcher Framber Valdez has earned the Opening Day start versus the Los Angeles Angels. He'll be followed by Jake Odorizzi and Justin Verlander who were both deserving of the start as well. The 28-year-old lefty posted a 3.14 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 125/58 K/BB ratio across 134 2/3 innings in 22 starts […]

Max Fried Earns Opening Day Nod

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Max Fried has earned the Opening Day start against the Cincinnati Reds. The 28-year-old lefty earned the nod over veteran starter Charlie Morton. To be fair, Fried was one of the best starting pitchers during the second half of last season. He finished with a 3.04 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 158/41 […]
