Seth Mejias-Brean Cracks First Career Homer

San Diego Padres shortstop Seth Mejias-Brean popped his first career home run Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Mejias-Brean’s two-run, opposite-field tater in the third inning secured the 2-1 victory for the Friars and he finished 1-for-3 on the evening. The 28-year-old rookie debuted on September 4 and he’s collected three knocks in 13 at-bats. The […]


Dinelson Lamet Fans 14 In Gem

San Diego Padres starter Dinelson Lamet struck out 14 Milwaukee Brewers across six frames on Wednesday to earn his third victory. Lamet became only the 13th player since 1908 to fan at least 14 in six or fewer innings. He yielded three hits, three walks and an earned run. The gem drops the 27-year-old’s ERA […]


Deebo Samuel Can't Be Ignored

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel is emerging as the go-to wideout in a crowded receiving corps. The second-round rookie led the team in targets, receptions and yards in Week 2, outpacing even All-Pro tight end George Kittle. Drafted for his playmaking abilities, Samuel has delivered and can’t be ignored in fantasy for Week […]


Trent Taylor, Jalen Hurd Likely Out Until Week 5

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Jalen Hurd (back) and Trent Taylor (foot) were absent from Wednesday’s practice. This is no surprise, as head coach Kyle Shanahan suggested a few days prior the team anticipates Hurd and Taylor returning after the Week 4 bye. Both wideouts suffered preseason injuries and are off the fantasy radar until deemed […]


Marquise Goodwin Back In The Mix

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin rewarded risk-seeking fantasy players in Week 2 by racking up 77 yards and a touchdown. Along with rookie wideout Deebo Samuel, Goodwin leads team receivers in snaps by a wide margin (62 percent). The seven-year speed demon is a proven deep threat that can always take the top […]


Dante Pettis Fading Into Oblivion

After playing just two snaps in the opener, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis participated in 40 percent of offensive snaps in Week 2 but did not record a target. Through two games, the former breakout candidate has one catch for seven yards and shouldn’t be in any fantasy lineups. Pettis has ceded looks […]


Matt Breida's Usage Suggests Bankable Floor

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida is a safe RB2 in Week 3 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The third-year back raced for 121 yards in Week 2 on just 12 carries and should again operate in a near-even split with Raheem Mostert. Behind one of the best offensive lines through two weeks, both Breida […]


Raheem Mostert Shining As Dual-Threat Runner

Given an opportunity in Week 2, San Francisco running back Raheem Mostert broke out with 151 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. The fourth-year special teams veteran played well in limited opportunities last season (34 carries, 7.7 YPC) and should continue co-chairing the backfield with Matt Breida in Week 3 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. While the […]


Chris Paddack Brilliant In Final Start

After firing five innings of one-run ball on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Brewers, San Diego Padres starter Chris Paddack’s season is done. Paddack will be shut down for the rest of 2019 after fanning nine brewers and issuing just one hit and a walk. The 23-year-old finishes his rookie campaign with a 9-7 record, 3.33 […]


49ers Defense Could Aggressively Pursue Jalen Ramsey

NBC Sports Bay Area’s Brian Witt believes the San Francisco 49ers should do “whatever it takes” to pursue Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey. The Pro Bowl corner requested a trade on Monday and the Niners could be a great fit. With veteran cornerback Richard Sherman locking down one side, the addition of Ramsey would be […]


Kaden Smith Claimed By Giants

The New York Giants claimed rookie tight end Kaden Smith on Monday. Smith was waived by the San Francisco 49ers over the weekend to make room for running back Jeffery Wilson on the 53-man squad. The 2019 sixth-round pick was buried on the depth chart behind George Kittle, Ross Dwelley and Levine Toilolo in San […]


Luis Urias Capitalizes At Coors Field

San Diego Padres shortstop Luis Urias enjoyed a fantastic series in Coors Field, finishing 5-for-14 with a homer, three doubles and seven runs-plus-RBI against the Colorado Rockies. The setting was certainly favorable, but Urias is scorching at the dish amidst a nine-game hitting streak, batting .400 and raising his OPS from .576 to .662. The […]


Robbie Gould Scores 11 Points

San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould converted five extra points and two of three field goal tries in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. The offensive surge by the Niners against an overmatched Bengals Defense permitted plenty of opportunities for Gould, who knocked through boots of 33 and 38 yards. The 37-year-old veteran will remain […]


Marquise Goodwin Waltzes Into End Zone

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin grabbed three of three targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Goodwin opened the scoring, getting wide open for a 38-yard touchdown in the first quarter. His services weren’t needed much further in the 41-17 rout but any fantasy owners who […]


Dante Pettis Non-Existent Once Again

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis saw zero targets in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. In a 41-17 blowout, Pettis observed eight other Niners receive looks in the passing game ahead of him. He did manage to toss a 16-yard pass on a gadget play. Pettis played more on Sunday compared to Week […]


Matt Breida Mauls Bengals

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida raced for 121 yards on 12 carries and caught his only target for 11 yards in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Breida and backfield mate Raheem Mostert (151 scrimmage yards) gashed the Bengals all day, both enjoying huge performances. The Niners had a few opportunities at the […]


Deebo Samuel Leads Niners In Receiving

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel snagged five of seven targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Even with alleged less playing time this week, Samuel led the team in targets, receptions and yards, scoring on a 2-yard pass in the third quarter. The second-round rookie has […]


Raheem Mostert Surpasses 150 Scrimmage Yards

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert rushed 13 times for 83 yards and caught three of four targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Mostert was everywhere on Sunday and was rewarded with an early 39-yard screen pass for his score. The Niners obliterated the Bengals on […]


George Kittle Takes Back Seat In Blowout

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle cradled his three targets for 54 yards in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Kittle’s receiving services weren’t needed in the blowout victory, as the Niners rushed for 259 yards. Kittle threw a few good blocks, which is meaningless for fantasy owners but his presence on the field […]


Jeffery Wilson Vultures Two Touchdowns

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeffery Wilson scored two rushing touchdowns in Week 2’s win against the Cincinnati Bengals. Wilson’s role as the primary goal-line back paid off, as he handled 10 carries for 34 yards, including two successful conversions inside the 5-yard line. The Niners promoted Wilson from the practice squad this week and […]


Jimmy Garoppolo Breezes To Victory

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo completed 17 of 25 passes for 297 yards, three touchdowns and an interception in Week 2’s annihilation of the Cincinnati Bengals. Garoppolo found both receiver Marquise Goodwin wide open for a 38-yard score then watched running back Raheem Mostert take a 39-yard screen to the house in the first […]


Points Leagues Waiver Wire Pickups: Week 25

Welcome to the RotoBaller waiver wire column that skews towards points league. Yes, there is positive correlation to standard 5x5 scoring but in our format, specific categories matter less and the accumulation of total stats is the ultimate objective. The home stretch of fantasy baseball is upon us. By now, the data for 2019 is […]


Dante Pettis Must Prove His Worth

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis played just two snaps in Week 1 but should have a larger role Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Pettis missed practice last week from a lingering groin issue, but head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed his lack of action wasn’t explicitly due to the injury. Coupled with the […]


Deebo Samuel Off To Promising Start

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel is trending up after playing 88 percent of snaps in Week 1. The rookie played more than any wideout and is likely the most start-worthy Niners receiver in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. However, head coach Kyle Shanahan tempered expectations by confessing that Samuel may have played […]


George Kittle's Usage Suggests Week 2 Breakout

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is an easy TE1 in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite a sluggish performance by quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and two touchdowns negated by penalty in Week 1, Kittle posted a respectable eight catches for 54 yards. With his floor solidified, Kittle should remain the top passing option […]


Marquise Goodwin And Richie James Can't Be Trusted

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Marquise Goodwin and Richie James are not optimal fantasy options in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Goodwin and James recorded just one catch apiece in Week 1, with James capitalizing on his grab for a 39-yard score. Goodwin played 74 percent of the snaps in Week 1 but may cede […]


Jimmy Garoppolo Needs To Rebound From Clunker

The San Francisco 49ers need quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to rebound in Week 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Garoppolo looked very shaky in Week 1, playing his first regular season game since suffering a torn ACL last season. Garoppolo squares off against a surprisingly frisky Bengals Defense that recorded four sacks last weekend against the Seattle […]


Matt Breida Stepping Into Lead Role

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida should see the bulk of work in Week 2 in Tevin Coleman’s (ankle) absence. Breida handled 15 touches for a meager 37 yards in Week 1 but the entire offense logged a sluggish performance. Without Coleman, Breida should lead the Niners backfield against the Cincinnati Bengals. While the […]


Manuel Margot Not Starting Thursday

San Diego Padres outfielder Manuel Margot is out of Thursday’s series finale against the Chicago Cubs. Margot carried the Friars to victory on Wednesday, collecting three knocks in four at-bats with a homer, two runs and a steal. After being benched earlier this season, Margot has rebounded to post a respectable .246/.318/.411 slash with 12 […]


Chris Paddack Fires Gem In Potential Final Start

San Diego Padres starter Chris Paddack pitched six frames of shutout ball to gather his ninth victory on Wednesday against the Chicago Cubs. Paddack fanned seven, surrendering just three hits and a walk. The 23-year-old endured a brief swoon in early-August, but has bounced back impressively, yielding a single earned run over his past three […]
