Mitch Haniger Held Without A Hit
Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger didn't look like himself during Thursday's game against the Oakland Athletics. He went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts at the plate during Thursday's 4-1 defeat. It was a frustrating day for the Mariners who managed just four total hits in this one. Despite a rough day at the plate, Haniger is […]

Joc Pederson Struggles On Thursday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Joc Pederson was unable to get much going at the plate during Thursday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. In fact, Pederson went 0-for-5 at the plate versus lefty Matt Moore. To be fair, Pederson does not hit left pitching well, so this wasn't an ideal matchup for him. He has already shown […]

Donovan Walton Recalled, Yohan Ramirez Optioned
Seattle Mariners infielder Donovan Walton has been recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday. He is slashing .206/.254/.365 with a pair of home runs over 63 at-bats this season. Obviously, Walton is not much of a fantasy option, but will be nice depth for Seattle. Right-hander Yohan Ramirez has been optioned to the minors in a […]

Isiah Kiner-Falefa Knocks In Two Runs
Texas Rangers infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa appears to be breaking out of his little slump at the plate. On Thursday, he went 1-for-5 with two RBI during the 7-5 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Obviously, it wasn't a great outing at the plate, but at least he knocked in two runs. The Rangers will certainly take […]

Will Fuller A Boom-or-Bust WR In 2021

DeVante Parker Could See Less Targets
Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker put together a fairly average year in 2020, but it wasn't all his fault. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa struggled to get the ball downfield, which is likely why Parker saw his stats decrease. Parker finished with a 61.2 catch percentage last season, which was the second-best of his career. Although, […]
