Brett Maher Looking for Another Solid Season

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is hoping to build on his solid 2018 season and should be a decent contributor in fantasy leagues this year as well. Maher went 29-for-36 last season with six field goals of 50 yards or more. He only missed one extra point try in 33 chances. He's not a get-him-early […]

Randall Cobb a Risky Wide Receiver This Season

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb is a risky but potentially decent-upside player in fantasy leagues this season. He signed a one-year, $5 million deal with the Cowboys this offseason and will essentially be a one-for-one replacement for Cole Beasley in the slot. Cobb and quarterback Dak Prescott were reportedly connecting well earlier in the […]

Michael Gallup Has Two Preseason Catches So Far

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup has made two catches so far in the preseason, gaining 19 yards. Gallup had an overall solid rookie season, although he was a bit inconsistent. He looked much more valuable on the actual field than on a fantasy team, but he should have some use in deeper formats this […]

Ezekiel Elliott About 50-50 for Week 1

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott, currently holding out for a better contract, is "a coin flip" to play in Week 1, according to former Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo. Elliott is reportedly in "the best shape of his life" and weighs 220 pounds, his lowest weight since his rookie season. Elliott's holdout was not taken […]

Closers and Saves Report - Week 20 Waiver Wire

It wasn't a huge week in terms of bullpen news, which was actually kind of nice after two weeks of shuffling and hustling throughout Major League Baseball's bullpens. There were some smaller things that happened this week though, that could lead to bigger news down the road. Some trade deadline acquisitions don't look like they're […]

Michael Wacha Throws Five Decent Innings on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Michael Wacha was okay on Thursday, throwing five innings but taking a loss. He allowed two runs on five hits and two walks. He struck out three and threw 80 pitches. Wacha hasn't been great this season as his 5.44 ERA shows, but he did well enough this time to […]

Adam Plutko Earns a Win and Quality Start on Thursday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Adam Plutko pitched well on Thursday, earning a win and a quality start. He went six innings, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk.

Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez had an enormous offensive game on Thursday, going 2-for-3 with two home runs, two walks, and six RBI. He scored two runs as well. It was a huge game for Ramirez which included the first grand slam of his career. He's been one of the best offensive players since […]

Miles Sanders Gets Five Carries on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders ran the ball five times on Thursday, gaining 31 yards. Sanders looked great and has drawn rave practice reviews as well, with some beat reporters going as far as calling him the clear RB1 in Philly. Jordan Howard is still around and Corey Clement will likely work most […]

Boston Scott Leads the Eagles Backfield on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott led the backfield in carries, yards, and touchdowns on Thursday. He ran the ball seven times, gaining 43 yards and scoring a touchdown. Scott is a possibility for the last running back spot in Philly, but he still has a few weeks to prove that he deserves a 53-man […]

Cody Kessler Suffers a Concussion on Thursday Night

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Cody Kessler suffered a concussion on Thursday night. He attempted four passes before being forced to leave the game, completing one for 11 yards. Kessler will enter the concussion protocol and while he should be ready for Week 1, fifth-rounder Clayton Thorson is the only one left to backup starter Carson Wentz […]

Clayton Thorson Completes 16 Passes on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Clayton Thorson played most of Thursday night's preseason game. He completed 16-of-26 passes for 175 yards. He threw a touchdown and an interception.

Amari Cooper Dealing With a Plantar Fascia Issue

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper has been dealing with a plantar fascia problem. Cooper was reported with a heel problem, but it looks like it was the plantar fascia irritation all along. He's missed a week of practice already, but the team does not seem concerned about his Week 1 availability. The Cowboys should […]

Franmil Reyes Hits His First Home Run in Cleveland

Cleveland Indians outfielder/designated hitter Franmil Reyes hit his first home run as a member of the Cleveland lineup, going 2-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored. It's been a rough start to Reyes' Indians career, but perhaps this game will be the kick start he needs. He's sporting a .150/.163/.275 slash line.

Carlos Santana Has a Three Hit Game Including a Home Run

Cleveland Indians first baseman Carlos Santana had a strong game on Monday, going 3-for-4 with a home run and two singles. He ended up scoring three runs and driving in one.

Zach Plesac Does Okay in Five Innings on Monday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Zach Plesac was okay on Monday, allowing three runs on seven hits in five innings of work. He walked two and struck out two as well. Plesac wasn't quite as on top of his game as he's been in recent starts, but he did his best to keep his team in […]

Brad Hand Blows a Save on Sunday

Cleveland Indians closer Brad Hand blew a save on Sunday, allowing two runs on four hits in the bottom of the ninth inning. He let the Twins tie the game at three and take it to extra innings. It was only Hand's third blown save of the season, and his ERA is still a solid […]

Aaron Civale Has Another Excellent Start on Sunday

Cleveland Indians rookie starting pitcher Aaron Civale continued pitching well on Sunday, tossing six innings while allowing just one run on four hits. He struck out five and did not issue a walk. Civale lowered his ERA to an even 1.00 and batters are hitting just .150 against him. He's obviously not this good, but […]

Cowboys Believe Tony Pollard Can "Carry the Load"

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard is capable of "carrying the load" according to Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones. Pollard was drafted in the fourth round and has been working as the lead back in practices while starter Ezekiel Elliott holds out for a new contract. Pollard only played the first series in Saturday's […]

Dallas Goedert to Miss Time With a Calf Injury

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert injured his calf and is considered week-to-week. Goedert will miss a preseason game or two, but he isn't expected to miss any regular season time and should be good to go for Week 1. The Eagles could be one of the rare NFL teams with two tight ends who […]

Yasiel Puig Hits a Home Run on Saturday Night

Cleveland Indians outfielder Yasiel Puig had a strong night at the plate on Saturday, going 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, an RBI, and a run scored.

Blake Jarwin Picks Up 51 Yards on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin performed well on Saturday, catching four passes for 51 scoreless yards. The four catches led the team and the 51 yards put him in second place on the Cowboys offense. Jarwin had some solid moments last season, and should do well again in small bursts this season, even with […]

Devin Smith Leads the Cowboys in Receiving on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Devin Smith led the team in receiving yards on Saturday, catching three passes for 54 yards. Smith, a 2015 second round pick of the Jets, is deeply buried on the Dallas depth chart but has shown the occasional explosiveness that could make him an intriguing wait-and-see piece if he makes the […]

Mike Weber Gets Six Carries on Saturday Night

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Mike Weber led the Cowboys backfield in carries on Saturday with six. He gained 18 yards and "added" two catches for a loss of five yards. In a backfield without Ezekiel Elliott (holdout), Weber wasn't featured but did get the most touches. It'll be interesting to follow the Cowboys backfield […]

Cooper Rush Looks Solid on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush played most of Saturday's first preseason game and looked solid enough in the process. He completed 16-of-26 passes for 142 scoreless yards. Rush is set to be the direct backup to starter Dak Prescott but shouldn't have to do much more than hold a clipboard unless something goes wrong.

Dak Prescott Completes All Four of His Passes on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott completed all four of his pass attempts on Saturday night, gaining 23 yards. Prescott wasn't in there for long, but 4-for-4 is certainly an encouraging first start.
