170 articles

A 30-year veteran of sports media both as a writer and in television production, I have been writing Fantasy sports since 2010. Was the Associated Press Fantasy Sportswriter in 2018 and have also worked with the Canadian Football League's Fantasy site in 2017-18. Originally from La Marque, Texas, I currently reside in Houston, Texas.

Wallner is hitting .271/.403/.612 with 26 RBI, 21 runs scored, and three stolen bases on the year. Daily fantasy managers should make Wallner a priority when facing right-handers, as […]

Jared Triolo Continues Flashing Power

Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Jared Triolo homered for the second time in three games during Monday's 4-3 loss at the Texas Rangers.

Jake McCarthy Continues Blistering Stretch At Plate

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Jake McCarthy hit his seventh homer in Monday's 9-6 win at the Miami Marlins. McCarthy's two-run homer off Marlins reliever John McMillon in the top of the eighth was his only hit.

Oakland Athletics outfielder JJ Bleday hit his 16th homer in Monday's 3-0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.

He is now hitting .245/.327/.447 with 47 RBI and 58 runs […]


Joe Boyle Earns Third Win

Oakland Athletics pitcher Joe Boyle allowed two hits over six innings in Monday's 3-0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays, striking out six.
