Jake Arrieta Won’t Return From Injured List On Saturday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jake Arrieta (hamstring) will not return from the 10-day injured list when eligible. The 35-year-old veteran could have made it back on Saturday, although it appears that he isn't quite there yet after landing on the 10-day injured list over a week ago because of right hamstring tightness. While he has […]

Shane Bieber Still Not Throwing

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Shane Bieber (shoulder) has yet to begin throwing. While skipper Terry Francona reported that the 26-year-old has been working with heavy balls, he still has a way to go in his progression before a trip back to the bump is a possibility. Bieber was playing relatively well before succumbing to a […]

Alex Blandino Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

Cincinnati Reds infielder Alex Blandino (hand) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Friday. He was originally a resident of the 10-day version, and although nothing has changed regarding his condition, the move clears a spot for the returning Michael Lorenzen (shoulder). The 28-year-old has been out of commission for about a month now […]

Buster Posey Almost Ready To Return

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey (thumb) is nearing a return. The veteran caught a bullpen session on Thursday, encouraging news after being diagnosed with a left thumb bruise over a week ago. The 34-year-old has been remarkable, batting .328, with 66 hits, 35 runs, 28 RBI, and 12 homers throughout 201 at-bats this season. […]

Blake Snell Starting Saturday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Blake Snell (illness) will be on the bump for Saturday's meeting against the Washington Nationals. Snell has been on the shelf for over a week due to a bout with gastroenteritis resulting from food poisoning. Nonetheless, the southpaw's return can't come soon enough, primarily with the team dealing with injuries […]

Danny Santana Reports For Rehab Assignment

Boston Red Sox outfielder Danny Santana (quadriceps) reported to Triple-A Worcester on Friday to begin a rehab stint. Santana strained his left quad during a contest against the Los Angeles Angels over a week ago. However, with a miserable .167 average this season, it's unlikely the 30-year-old has many fantasy managers awaiting his return. He […]

FanDuel MMA, UFC Vegas 31 DFS Lineup Picks - Makhachev vs. Moises

UFC 264 had plenty of excitement, although the main event between Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor didn't live up to the hype. After McGregor broke his leg and could not continue, it is safe to assume that a fourth encounter between these two could occur somewhere down the line, primarily since bad blood remains. However, […]

De’Aaron Fox Unlikely To Be Traded

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox is unlikely to be traded this offseason. The 23-year-old averaged a career-high 25.2 points to go along with 7.2 assists and 1.5 steals last season. Although the former Kentucky Wildcat has been wrapped up in recent trade rumblings involving Ben Simmons, Fox is reportedly not on the table. While Simmons […]

Bradley Beal Enters Safety Protocols

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal entered health and safety protocols related to COVID-19 on Wednesday. It isn't known if Beal tested positive for the Coronavirus or if he was just exposed, but his future with Team USA moving ahead is uncertain as a result of the latest news. The 28-year-old, who has recently been involved […]

Anthony Edwards To Be Evaluated In Minnesota

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Anthony Edwards (ankle) has left Las Vegas and will be evaluated at the team's facility. The 19-year-old injured his ankle during a recent scrimmage against Team USA last Wednesday. Although any injury is alarming, primarily since Edwards was originally thought to have hurt his knee, he is expected to be fine and […]

Mike Conley A Priority For Utah

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley is expected to be a priority for the team during the offseason. The veteran, who will be an unrestricted free agent, averaged 16.2 points, 6.0 assists, and 1.6 steals while shooting 41.2 percent from distance during the 2020-21 campaign but has been plagued by consistent hamstring issues throughout the last […]

Jayson Tatum Considered Day-To-Day

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) didn't suit up for Tuesday's exhibition against Argentina. Tatum, who will represent Team USA during the Summer Olympics, is currently battling right knee soreness. Although he is expected to be fine, it is something for fantasy managers, especially dynasty formats, to keep an eye on moving ahead.

DeMar DeRozan Rumored To Land In L.A.

San Antonio Spurs guard DeMar DeRozan, who is entering free agency this offseason, could be on his way to Los Angeles. Assuming Kawhi Leonard (knee) remains with the organization, DeRozan can help lessen the load of the hobbled superstar, primarily on the offensive end. However, to make a deal happen, specifically from a fiscal sense, […]

Several Clubs Emerge In Ben Simmons Sweepstakes

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons is available for trade, according to recent reports. Although many clubs have already expressed interest in the former LSU Tiger, Toronto, Indiana, and Sacramento have emerged as three potential destinations. With those teams historically having issues luring big-time free agents, the four years remaining on Simmons' most recent deal makes […]

Obi Toppin To Cleveland?

New York Knicks forward Obi Toppin could find himself wearing a new uniform next season. The 23-year-old, who was selected with the No. 8 pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, is rumored to be included in a potential deal that could bring Collin Sexton to The Big Apple. The former Dayton Flyer had a successful […]

Multiple Teams Interested In John Collins

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins has plenty of teams interested in his services heading into the new year. The 23-year-old, who turned down a $90 million extension last offseason, is on the radar for multiple teams, specifically Dallas, Miami, San Antonio, and Minnesota. With Hawks' owner Tony Ressler indicating that the organization may not be […]

Kawhi Leonard Has ACL Surgery

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) underwent successful surgery on Tuesday. However, he doesn't have a return date, and it's also possible, if not likely, that he begins the 2021-22 campaign on the injured list. The veteran partially tore his right ACL during Game 4 of the postseason meeting against the Utah Jazz and […]

Celtics Rumored To Be Eyeing Bradley Beal

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal is reportedly on the Celtics' radar ahead of the 2021-22 campaign. The 28-year-old averaged a career-high 31.3 points throughout 60 games last season but has been continuously involved in trade rumors over the last few years. Although Jaylen Brown would be an ideal candidate for Washington in a potential swap, […]

Kevin Love Still On The Market

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love likely won't be back with the team next season. Although a buyout is still an option, trading him may also be in the equation. However, with the veteran still having a few seasons left under a four-year, $120 million deal, 22-year-old guard Collin Sexton may need to be added to […]

Collin Sexton “Very Available”

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton is reportedly "very available" ahead of the upcoming 2021-22 campaign. With the team looking to offload Kevin Love's massive contract, the 22-year-old may need to be added into the equation to make it happen. Sexton averaged a career-high 24.3 points throughout 60 games last season, so finding a suitor may […]

Ben Simmons To Minnesota?

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons remains in the news as his name continues to be wrapped up in trade rumors. While many teams have expressed interest in acquiring the 24-year-old, Timberwolves president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas and Sixers general manager Elton Brand reportedly discussed orchestrating a potential deal during the NBA Combine. Although it […]

Torrey Craig Available On Sunday

Phoenix Suns guard Torrey Craig (knee) is available for Game 3 of the NBA Finals against Milwaukee. Craig injured his right knee during the Game 2 win on Thursday, and after he was listed as probable earlier in the day on Sunday, coach Monty Williams indicated he is good to go. However, the 30-year-old is […]

Zack Greinke Dealing With Shoulder Soreness

Houston Astros starting pitcher Zack Greinke (shoulder) left Saturday's matchup against the New York Yankees. According to skipper Dusty Baker, the 37-year-old veteran was reportedly dealing with shoulder soreness, and with the All-Star break up ahead, his early departure should give him some much-needed rest before the second half of the year begins. The right-hander […]

Victor Gonzalez Throws Pen Session

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Victor Gonzalez (foot) threw a bullpen session at Dodger Stadium on Saturday. The 25-year-old southpaw recently landed on the 10-day injured list because of plantar fasciitis, but the recent update would appear that he won't be on the IL long. Gonzalez currently owns a 2.57 ERA this season, and fantasy […]

Austin Gomber Throws 35 Pitches Saturday

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Austin Gomber (forearm) tossed 35 pitches across two innings in a simulated game on Saturday. Although he still has a way to go before taking the bump again, it is still a step in the right direction. Gomber has been out of the equation since June because of forearm tightness, but […]

Brendan Rodgers Out With Stomach Issues

Colorado Rockies second baseman Brendan Rodgers (illness) will not play on Saturday evening against the San Diego Padres. With Trevor Story (soreness) out after getting hit by a pitch on Friday, Rodgers was originally slated to cover second base while Chris Owings took over short. However, it now appears gastrointestinal issues will keep the 24-year-old […]

Trevor Story Out Against Padres

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story (soreness) isn't in the lineup on Saturday against the Padres. He was hit by a pitch on Friday night and battling some soreness, so the team will play it safe by holding him out. Chris Owings will slide over to cover the position. Garrett Hampson will also now cover base […]

Josh Naylor Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

Cleveland Indians outfielder Josh Naylor (ankle) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Saturday. Naylor suffered a gruesome right ankle injury a few weeks ago, and he recently went under the knife, so his new designation isn't much of a surprise. The 24-year-old remains without a firm return date, although he may not be […]

Kyle Seager Not Playing On Saturday

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager will not play on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Angels. No reason was given regarding the veteran's absence, although he hasn't done much anyway, so fantasy managers likely won't be too upset. Shed Long Jr. will enter the lineup and cover second, with Dylan Moore sliding over to […]

Update On Ronald Acuna Jr. Likely On Sunday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (leg) is still being examined after he was carted off the field on Saturday in a contest against the Marlins. Manager Brian Snitker wasn't able to provide an update on the two-time All-Star, only indicating that more news regarding his status likely won't come until Sunday. Surely, fantasy managers […]
