That […]

Adrian Gonzalez Retires From Baseball

Free-agent first baseman Adrian Gonzalez has decided to retire from professional baseball. The 39-year-old hasn't appeared in an MLB game since 2018 with the New York Mets. He was a former first overall selection by the San Diego Padres in 2000. Gonzalez was a five-time All-Star and a four-time Gold Glove winner. He slashed .287/.358/.485 […]

Yankees Likely To Pursue Freddie Freeman

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman has hit the free-agent market, and the organization hasn't jumped on extending their superstar slugger. To be fair, there are not any MLB signings allowed while the new CBA is being discussed. Regardless, it sounds like the New York Yankees are going to take a run at Freeman this […]

Marcell Ozuna Expected To Return In 2022

Atlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna is expected to return to the field in 2022, according to manager Brian Snitker. Ozuna is eligible to return this season following his suspension for his domestic violence charges. Snitker mentions that he would have no issues playing Ozuna, assuming he's cleared to play. The Braves have Ozuna under contract […]

The Minnesota Twins have decided to sign infielder Tim Beckham to a minor league deal. The former first overall draft pick from 2008 hasn't played in the MLB since 2019 with the Seattle Mariners.

Robinson Cano Hitting Well In Winter Ball

New York Mets second baseman Robinson Cano is expected to be back with the organization for the 2022 season. He was suspended for the entire 2021 season for breaking the MLB's drug policy for the second time. Despite that, Cano remains on the Mets payroll for the 2022 and 2023 season. He is owed $24 […]

Akil Baddoo Continues Improving

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo has done a ton of work in the offseason to improve himself. Last season was Baddoo's first year back after having Tommy John surgery. He admits that his arm wasn't 100 percent during the 2021 season. However, he has done stretching and workouts over the offseason to help with his […]

John Collins Available On Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (shoulder) is available for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. There was concern whether or not Collins would play in this game after suffering a shoulder injury during their last contest. However, it appears Collins is fine to play on Friday and is expected to resume his normal role on […]

Coby White Ruled Out Against Pacers

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (groin) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This is a tough blow with the Bulls already missing Zach LaVine (back), Lonzo Ball (knee), and Alex Caruso (wrist) due to injury. That means, Ayo Dosunmu and Javonte Green are likely to play significant minutes on Friday. […]

Darius Garland Listed As Out On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (back) is listed as out for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. This marks the third game in a row that Garland has missed due to back soreness. Obviously, the loss of Garland is a tough blow to a Cavs roster that has already been crushed by injuries. Brian Goodwin […]

Rudy Gay Tagged As Questionable For Friday

Utah Jazz forward Rudy Gay (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The Jazz are already without starting center Rudy Gobert (calf) and backup Hassan Whiteside (back) is listed as questionable. That means, Eric Paschall, Udoka Azubuike, and possibly Elijah Hughes would play bigger roles. Gay wasn't a great fantasy […]

Rudy Gobert Remains Out On Friday

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The good new is, star guard Donovan Mitchell cleared concussion protocol and is available to play. Sadly, Gobert remains sidelined and his backup Hassan Whiteside (back) is listed as questionable. Udoka Azubuike is expected to draw another start […]

Zach LaVine Won't Be Available On Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He played in six straight games, so it's not surprising that the Bulls are giving their banged up star a rest day. DeMar DeRozan should see increased usage without LaVine on the court. Also, Ayo Dosunmu and Javonte […]

Goga Bitadze Ruled Out On Friday

Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He will miss his fourth game in a row here due to right foot soreness. Luckily, Oshae Brissett (ankle) is active for this game, but the Pacers remain extremely thin at center. Last game, Terry Taylor went off […]

Doug McDermott Removed From Injury Report

San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott (ankle) is not listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He has been dealing with a right ankle sprain, but is expected to play on Friday. His return should move Devin Vassell back to the second unit. Both players have been decent scoring options […]

Gordon Hayward Active For Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward is available for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He hasn't played since Jan. 21 but has been ramping up his conditioning. Hayward will make his return to the court and should play his normal role of around 30 minutes. Kelly Oubre Jr. is likely going to take the biggest […]

John Collins Exits Early On Thursday

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (shoulder) was unfortunately not able to get through Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He exited during the fourth quarter with what appears to be a separated shoulder. This could be an issue that forces Collins to miss multiple games. The All-Star break is approaching, so maybe the Hawks take […]

De'Aaron Fox Won't Play Against Warriors

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Fox will miss his seventh game in a row due to left ankle soreness. It's uncertain if Fox will suit up again before the All-Star break. Tyrese Haliburton will continue to be a strong fantasy option while […]

Gary Payton II Not Listed On Injury Report

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (shin) has been removed from the injury report heading into Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He exited Tuesday's game due to a shin injury and wasn't able to return. However, it appears Payton is fine and will play on Thursday. He could have some deep league value, […]

Ivica Zubac Ruled Out Against Lakers

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. They will once again be without their starting center due to right calf soreness. Serge Ibaka is expected to move into the starting five for Thursday's contest. He finished with 14 points and 11 rebounds during […]

Moses Moody To Start On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Moses Moody will remain in the starting five for Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He dropped a career-high 20 points during his last contest. However, that was a game where the Warriors decided to rest a majority of their starting unit. Moody will be joined by Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, […]

LeBron James Won't Play Against Clippers

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It was highly unlikely that James was going to play in this game. His timetable remains unknown and there's a chance that James sits out until the All-Star break. In the meantime, Anthony Davis and Russell […]

C.J. Uzomah Misses Thursday's Practice

Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (knee) didn't suit up for Thursday's practice. He suffered an MCL sprain during the AFC Championship game. Luckily, the Super Bowl is still 10 days away, so Uzomah has time to get ready for the big game. His status for the Super Bowl likely won't be known until next […]

Tyler Higbee Held Out Of Thursday's Practice

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) was held out of Thursday's practice. He suffered a sprained MCL during the NFC Championship game and hasn't practiced since then. To be fair, the Super Bowl is 10 days away, so Higbee has plenty of time to prepare and get back on the field. The Rams […]

Cam Akers Sidelined During Thursday's Practice

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (shoulder) has missed each of the last two practices. He injured his shoulder during the first half of the NFC Championship game. Akers played through the shoulder issue, but has struggled on the ground during the postseason. It's remarkable that Akers is playing at all after suffering an […]

Van Jefferson Limited During Thursday's Practice

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) was limited during Thursday's practice. Jefferson aggravated his knee injury during the NFC Championship game. However, the fact he is on the practice field is good news for his availability for the Super Bowl. He finished with two receptions for nine yards during the victory over the […]

Patrick Beverley Available Against Pistons

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley (ankle) will be available for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was previously listed as questionable due to a right ankle sprain. However, Beverley will suit up and move into the starting five with D'Angelo Russell (shin) sitting out. There should be plenty of fantasy value for Beverley and […]

Khem Birch Available Against Bulls

Toronto Raptors forward Khem Birch (nose) has been upgraded to available for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He has not appeared in a game since January 14 and underwent nose surgery. His return will impact the fantasy value of Chris Boucher, and Precious Achiuwa. It's uncertain how big of a role Birch will have […]

Deandre Ayton, Jae Crowder Available On Thursday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) and forward Jae Crowder (wrist) are available for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Both players were able to play on Tuesday without any issues. They should resume their normal roles without any limitations on Thursday. Bismack Biyombo and Cameron Johnson will be impacted the most by Ayton and […]

LeBron James Doubtful Versus Clippers

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This doesn't come as a surprise as James is expected to miss additional time due to a swollen knee. Stanley Johnson is expected to remain in the starting five, but doesn't have great streaming appeal. Instead, […]
