Willie Calhoun Drives In Three On Wednesday

Texas Rangers outfielder Willie Calhoun came through late and spurred his team to a comeback win over the Seattle Mariners.

Jordan Lyles Plagued By The Long Ball

On Wednesday night, Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jordan Lyles was not sharp in five innings of work. Lyles pitched five innings and gave up six hits, four walks, four earned runs, and two home runs with four strikeouts. On the box score, it looks like all of the damage was done to Lyles in the […]

Isiah Kiner-Falefa Collects Two More Hits

Texas Rangers third baseman Isiah Kiner-Falefa continued his hot-hitting 2020 season against the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. In a 4-2 Rangers win, IKF went 2-for-4 with a double. His season-long slash line sits at .320/.358/.440, but he's been even better than that over the last week. The catcher-eligible infielder is 10-for-28 with three extra-base hits […]

Rafael Montero Grabs Third Save Of Season

Texas Rangers reliever Rafael Montero entered a 4-2 ball game in the top of the ninth and shut the door on the Seattle Mariners to pick up the save. It is Montero's third save of the season, and it looks like he is now the go-to option for the closer role in Texas. On Tuesday […]

Rougned Odor Having Another Slow Start

Texas Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor has done nothing in 2020 to prove his doubters wrong. The left-handed hitter is slashing .128/.209/. 231 to begin the year while his competition is at least performing adequately. There were mumblings that Odor's time at second base me be coming to an end during spring training, but he […]

Kyle Gibson Gives Up Four Runs At Home

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kyle Gibson was not at his best on Monday night, and the Seattle Mariners made him pay. In a 10-2 loss to open the series, Gibson allowed nine hits, four earned runs, one walk, and one home run while striking out two. It was the first bad start of the 2020 […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (8/10/20): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

We kick start a new week with nine games on the main slate for FanDuel. That leaves us with a very high-salary pitcher (Patrick Corbin $10,800) and some middle-tier arms. It's always nice to have more high-upside options, but we can still grab Dustin May or Kyle Gibson to anchor our teams. I could go […]

Seedings are starting to fall into place in Disney World.

Shin-Soo Choo Goes Deep In Oakland

Texas Rangers outfielder Shin-Soo Choo collected his third home run of the season on Wednesday night. Choo smacked the first pitch of the game out of the park off A's starter Sean Manaea.

Kyle Gibson Strikes Out Nine

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kyle Gibson made his second start of the season on Wednesday night and was unfortunate not to grab his first win in a Rangers uniform. Gibson pitched six innings giving up four hits, three earned runs, two home runs, and two walks while striking out nine Oakland A's. He left the […]

Last season's Most Improved Player has been quiet during […]

Kyle Lowry Flirts With A Triple-Double

In a 109-99 win over the Orlando Magic, Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry did a little bit of everything on Wednesday night.

After a dominating […]

Robert Covington Disappoints In Good Matchup

Houston Rockets forward Robert Covington came into Tuesday's contest in fine form but was disappointing for daily players that thrust him into their lineups. Against a bottom-five defense, Covington had a chance to extend his hot start in the bubble. Instead, he posted six points, eight rebounds, and shot 2-for-11 on the night. All his […]

Jeff Green Scores Season-High 22 Points

Houston Rockets forward Jeff Green scored 22 points on Tuesday night in a 110-102 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.

Lance Lynn's Scoreless Streak Comes To An End

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Lance Lynn finally gave up a run on Tuesday night versus the Oakland Athletics in a 5-1 loss. His streak of 18 and 1/3 innings pitched was the longest scoreless streak to begin a season for Texas since 1980. The streak came to an end thanks to a Matt Chapman home […]

Lance Lynn Faces Toughest Test Of Season

Tobias Harris Does A Little Bit Of Everything

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris filled up the box score in a 132-130 win over the San Antonio Spurs. The 28-year-old had 25 points, six rebounds, four assists, one block, and one steal in 31 minutes. The forward had 30 points in his first game, and adding another 25 in game two should give fantasy […]

Joel Embiid Scores Another 27 Points

Coming off a dominant performance in a loss to the Indiana pacers, Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid contributed enough to get his team in the win column for the first time since the restart. Embiid had 27 points, nine rebounds, five assists, and one steal in 31 minutes of action on Monday. The All-Star went […]

Derrick White Hits Four Three-Pointers

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White scored 20 points on Monday night in a 132-130 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. The point guard also had an efficient night shooting the ball.
