Dallas Cowboys guard Zack Martin did not participate in any football activities in OTAs. He did work out with his teammates in the gym, but he did not do any work on the field. Martin and the Cowboys are reportedly working on a long-term deal which will likely make Martin the league's highest paid guard.... Read More
Dallas Cowboys defensive back Anthony Brown was working as the first team slot cornerback in OTAs. Brown allowed the most touchdowns in the entire NFL last season while playing as an outside corner, so the move makes sense. When filling in at slot corner last season, usually for the injured Orlando Scandrick, Brown looked much... Read More
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrance Williams contradicted an earlier public statement regarding the car accident he was involved in.

Dallas Cowboys offensive weapon Tavon Austin will be used all over the offense.

He's a guy we get the ball in his... Read More
The Cleveland Indians signed free-agent pitcher Mitch Talbot to a minor league contract. Talbot is 34 and hasn't pitched in a major league game since 2011, but he was pitching well for the Sugar Land Skeeters in the Independent Atlantic League, posting a 1.93 ERA in five starts. He's unlikely to make much of an... Read More
Cleveland Indians closer Cody Allen picked up his seventh save of the season on Wednesday, working 1 1/3 perfect innings.

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Andrew Miller was great on Wednesday, pitching 1 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and striking out two. The effort earned Miller his fifth save. He'd been struggling since returning from a hamstring injury, so Cleveland and Miller's fantasy owners were thrilled with the strong performance.
Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Adam Plutko worked six strong innings on Wednesday, earning a win and a quality start. Plutko took Josh Tomlin's rotation spot, as Tomlin will be working out of the bullpen for now. Plutko ended up with six scoreless innings, allowing just two hits but four walks. He also struck out four.... Read More
St. Louis Cardinals closer Bud Norris had his first real rough outing of the season on Wednesday, taking the loss after allowing three runs on three hits in just one inning.

He drove in three all with one swing on Tuesday, clearing the bases with a double in the fifth inning of... Read More
Cleveland Indians infielder Jose Ramirez had a good game on Tuesday, drawing three walks and hitting a three-run home run in a win against the Cubs. Ramirez raised his on-base percentage to .394, which after the start to the season he had is extremely impressive. The home run was his 14th of the year, which... Read More
Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Trevor Bauer threw six scoreless innings on Tuesday, earning his fourth win of the season. Bauer gave up seven hits and two walks while striking out six. He's recorded 14 straight scoreless innings since a rough start against the Royals a few starts earlier. He'll take a 2.35 ERA into a... Read More
St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Luke Weaver earned a quality start but took a loss in Tuesday's game. Weaver tossed seven strong innings, allowing three runs but striking out eight. Weaver was extremely efficient, throwing only 88 pitches to get his 21 outs. After a rough stretch in April, Weaver has now put together three... Read More
The Philadelphia Eagles rejected a trade with the Cleveland Browns prior to the draft which would have sent quarterback Nick Foles to Cleveland in exchange for the number 35 overall pick of the draft. The Browns went on and acquired a quarterback in Tyrod Taylor afterwards. Per a source, the Eagles asked Foles if he... Read More
St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina (groin) participated in light on-field work before Tuesday's game. He underwent emergency surgery on May 5 after taking a foul tip to the groin area. He's still a few weeks away from returning to the lineup, but Tuesday was a step in the right direction.
Updating a previous report, Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Paul Worrilow (knee) has been diagnosed with a torn ACL. He'll miss the entire 2018 season. Worrilow had just signed a one-year contract to join the Super Bowl champions in April, but a non-contact injury on Tuesday landed him in an air cast and had him carted off... Read More
The Philadelphia Eagles released linebacker Mychal Kendricks on Tuesday. Kendricks was a starting linebacker for the Super Bowl champions last season, but the cut will save the team $6 million against the salary cap if it is designated a post-June 1 release. Kendricks had one of his best NFL seasons last year, so he won't... Read More
St. Louis Cardinals rookie outfielder Tyler O'Neill is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game. He's hit three home runs over the past three games and will shoot for four against the Royals on Tuesday. He'll play in Tommy Pham's place on Tuesday, but could seemingly start seeing more and more consistent playing time in... Read More
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tommy Pham is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game. It's just a simple day of rest for Pham, who will be replaced in the lineup by rookie Tyler O'Neill. Fantasy owners should adjust their lineups accordingly, knowing that Pham will be right back in there on Wednesday.
Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Paul Worrilow was placed in an air cast and carted off the field during Tuesday's practice. While the team has yet to release information about the injury, the presence of an air cast and a cart certainly lend themselves to the belief that Worrilow suffered a serious injury. He'd just signed a... Read More
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) participated in individual throwing drills during organized team activities on Tuesday. Wentz admitted that he has not been medically cleared to practice but had always planned on participating at OTAs.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood faces a "steep uphill battle" to make the Eagles final roster for the 2018 season.

With Ajayi, Darren Sproles, and Corey Clement firmly ahead of him on the depth chart, Smallwood looks like... Read More
Philadelphia Eagles running back Donnel Pumphrey is expected to be on the roster bubble heading into the 2018 season. Pumphrey reportedly faces an "uphill battle" to make the final roster. After a disappointing training camp before last season, he was placed on Injured Reserve and missed the entire year. Recent reports state that Pumphrey has... Read More
Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles could lead the Eagles backfield in snaps in 2018, according to NJ.com Eagles reporter Eliot Shorr-Parks. Sproles was the starter last season before a season-ending injury, and apparently the presence of Jay Ajayi may not change that this year. While he certainly won't operate as a three-down back, an...

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter started out the season as one of the worst offensive players in baseball. He got an entire weekend off to work on his swing and was later even pinch hit for in a critical late-game situation. Something seems to have clicked with the veteran, though, as he's now recorded...

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Carson Kelly (hamstring) could return to the team as soon as he is eligible this weekend.
