Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Bowden Francis had seemingly no issues on the mound during Sunday's outing against the Chicago Cubs.

James Washington Released By Falcons
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver James Washington has been released by the organization on Sunday. It looks like Washington was the odd man out as the Falcons needed to cut someone to add safety Justin Simmons to the roster. At this point, Washington is nothing more than depth on any NFL roster. His best season came […]

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy (oblique) is expected to be activated off the injured list ahead of Monday's game against the Seattle Mariners.

Royce Lewis Sitting Out On Sunday
Minnesota Twins infielder Royce Lewis is taking a seat ahead of Sunday's game against the Texas Rangers. This appears to be a routine rest day for Lewis so fantasy managers don't need to be concerned about an injury.

Bucky Irving Gets Six Carries
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving made some noise during the team's preseason opener last week.

The yardage is about the same, but last […]

This performance should give Trask […]

Adam Thielen Sitting Out On Saturday
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen won't suit up for Saturday's preseason contest against the New York Jets.

That being said, fantasy managers shouldn't be alarmed […]

Diontae Johnson Unavailable On Saturday
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (groin) isn't expected to suit up for Saturday's preseason game against the New York Jets.
