Tyler Allgeier Trending Toward Flex Territory in Week 3

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier rushed 16 times for 76 yards and a touchdown in Week 2's 22-6 victory over the Vikings, the second straight week he's reached double-digit carries, and he even caught one pass for four yards. The 25-year-old tallied double-digit carries five times all last season, so it bodes well for his usage […]


Ray-Ray McCloud III Avoidable in Week 3

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud III did not record a catch in Week 2 and garnered only two targets in the 22-6 victory over the Vikings. The Falcons leaned on their running backs in that one, with Michael Penix Jr. attempting just 21 passes and completing only 13 of them. With Darnell Mooney (shoulder) […]

Hitter Fantasy Baseball Breakouts - Risers to Watch and Waiver Wire Outlooks (Week 26)

Welcome back to my Fantasy Baseball Breakout Hitters article for Week 26, as we wind down the 2025 MLB regular season. The focus of this article is to highlight players who could be on the verge of a breakout, citing current active hitting streaks along with recent leaders in batting average, stolen bases, and isolated […]


Darnell Mooney a Low-End Option in Potential Run-Heavy Attack

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Friday and heads into the weekend without an injury designation. The 27-year-old missed Week 1 with a shoulder injury, but was back out there in Week 2, reeling in two of his four targets for 20 yards. No pass catcher had […]


Drake London a Solid WR1 in Favorable Matchup Against Carolina

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London caught three of four targets for 49 yards in Week 2, a disappointing performance after drawing a whopping 15 targets and catching eight balls in Week 1 (albeit for only 55 yards). Michael Penix Jr. completed only 13 passes in Week 2 as the team relied on the ground […]


Bijan Robinson an Elite RB1 in Juicy Matchup Versus Carolina

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson rushed for 143 yards on 22 carries in last week's 22-6 victory over the Vikings, adding three catches on five targets for 25 yards as well. That gives him a 100-yard receiving game and a 100-yard rushing game through the first two weeks, proving he's an every-week, matchup-proof fantasy […]


Michael Penix Jr. a Mid-Range QB2 in Game that Could Feature the Run

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. underwhelmed in Week 2 as the team relied heavily on the run game, completing just 13 of 21 passes for 135 yards and no scores (and zero interceptions) in a 22-6 victory over the Vikings. The game script could look similar on Sunday in a road matchup against a […]


Alfredo Duno Named Florida State League MVP

Cincinnati Reds catching prospect Alfredo Duno has been named the Single-A Florida State League (FSL) Most Valuable Player for 2025. The Reds' third-ranked prospect led the FSL in most statistical categories, including home runs (18), doubles (18), RBI (81), runs scored (78), walks (95), OBP (.430), and SLG (.518). The 19-year-old's 95 walks were more […]


Carson Whisenhunt Shaky in First Rehab Start

San Francisco Giants pitching prospect Carson Whisenhunt (back) made his first rehab appearance at Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday. The Giants' seventh-ranked prospect allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits and a walk while striking out only one batter in 1 2/3 innings of work. Not only that, but the 24-year-old also threw two wild […]


Griffin Conine Could Join Team Next Week in Philadelphia

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder) is expected to stay with the club's Triple-A affiliate in Jacksonville for the remainder of the Triple-A regular season, according to manager Clayton McCullough, which wraps up this Sunday. After that, he could potentially rejoin the big league club for a series that begins Tuesday in Philadelphia, although the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp are in […]


Philip Abner Called Up from Triple-A Reno for Debut

Arizona Diamondbacks pitching prospect Philip Abner has been called up from Triple-A Reno for what will be his major league debut whenever he enters a game. The 23-year-old began the season at High-A and earned a promotion to Double-A in mid-May, then made it to Triple-A at the end of August. The former sixth-round draft […]


John Rave Recalled from Triple-A Omaha

Kansas City Royals outfielder John Rave was recalled from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday after Kyle Isbel (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list. The 27-year-old debuted with the team in late May, logging 156 plate appearances before being sent down in late August. During his time in the majors, the left-handed slugger hit just […]


Caleb Bonemer Named Carolina League Most Valuable Player

Chicago White Sox infield prospect Caleb Bonemer has been named the Single-A Carolina League Most Valuable Player for 2025. Chicago's fourth-ranked prospect slashed .281/.400/.458 with 10 home runs, 27 steals, and a strong 15.7 percent walk rate in 96 games for Single-A Kannapolis. The 2024 second-rounder was then promoted to High-A in late August, where […]


Eduardo Quintero Takes Home California League MVP Honors

Los Angeles Dodgers outfield prospect Eduardo Quintero has been named the Single-A California League Most Valuable Player. The Dodgers' No. 4 prospect was promoted to High-A Great Lakes in late July, but before that, he spent 81 games at Single-A Rancho Cucamonga, where he hit .306 with 14 home runs and 35 steals. The 6-foot-1 […]


Ed Howard Promoted to Triple-A Iowa, Will Also Play in Arizona Fall League

Chicago Cubs infield prospect Ed Howard was promoted to Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday. The former first-round draft pick has dealt with injuries since coming into the minor league system in 2021, much of which centered around a hip injury in 2022 that required surgery, which has derailed his progress. This year, the 23-year-old played two […]


George Klassen Promoted to Triple-A, Strikes Out Eight in First Start

Los Angeles Angels pitching prospect George Klassen was promoted to Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday after spending the entirety of 2025 at Double-A. The Angels' third-ranked prospect posted a 5.35 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, and struck out 126 batters in 102 2/3 innings pitched (24 starts) this season, but had been better as of late, recording […]


Carter Kieboom Recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake

Los Angeles Angels infielder Carter Kieboom was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday after shortstop Zach Neto (hand) was placed on the 10-day injured list with a hand injury. Kieboom was on fire at Triple-A, collecting at least one hit in 24 of his last 25 games, going 40-for-100 (.400) over that stretch, including […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. Seeing Uptick in Target Share, But Will it Last?

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. reeled in four of his five targets in Sunday's 22-6 victory over the Vikings. Those catches produced just 37 yards, however, his involvement is encouraging thus far after underwhelming from 2022 through 2024. The former fourth-overall draft pick owns a 20.6 percent target share through the team's first two […]


Elijah Hainline Promoted to Double-A Tulsa

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop prospect Elijah Hainline was promoted to Double-A Tulsa on Monday, just in time for the Double-A playoffs, which will begin Tuesday night. The 2024 seventh-rounder began the season at Single-A and was promoted to High-A after 66 games. The Oregon State product played in 40 games for the Loons, batting .273 […]


Colt Emerson Headed to Triple-A Tacoma

Seattle Mariners infield prospect Colt Emerson is getting promoted to Triple-A Tacoma to finish out the 2025 season. The Mariners' top-ranked prospect began the season at High-A and was promoted after 90 games in early August, logging 34 games at Double-A Arkansas. All in all, the former first-round draft pick slashed .281/.380/.446 with 14 home […]


Luis Perales to Debut at Triple-A Worcester this Week

Boston Red Sox pitching prospect Luis Perales (elbow) is expected to make his debut at Triple-A Worcester this week. Boston's ninth-ranked prospect made his season debut at Double-A on Saturday, pitching one inning where he allowed one walk, no hits, and he did not strike out a batter. The 22-year-old is returning from Tommy John surgery, which he needed […]


Rafael Flores Called Up from Triple-A Indianapolis for Debut

Pittsburgh Pirates first base/catcher prospect Rafael Flores is getting called up from Triple-A Indianapolis for what will be his major league debut. The Pirates' eighth-ranked prospect came over to Pittsburgh in the trade that sent David Bednar to the Yankees in early August. During his time at Indianapolis, the 24-year-old hit .281 with six home runs in […]


Jarlin Susana Undergoes Lat Surgery, Status for Spring Unclear

Washington Nationals pitching prospect Jarlin Susana (lat) underwent surgery on his ailing right lat sometime last week. The Nats' third-ranked prospect exited his last start on August 30 in clear pain and was placed on the injured list on September 3. The right-hander also missed two months in the middle of the season due to […]


Will Shorter Targets Doom Drake London's Quest for Second Straight 1,000-Yard Season?

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London caught three of his four targets in Sunday's 22-6 win over the Vikings, totaling 49 yards receiving in the contest. With only four targets, it would seem he was not heavily involved, but no other pass catcher was targeted more than five times in a game where the team […]


Jurrangelo Cijntje Throws Four Shutout Innings in Latest Start

Seattle Mariners pitching prospect Jurrangelo Cijntje threw four innings of shutout baseball on Sunday, yielding three hits and two walks while striking out three. The Mariners' eighth-ranked prospect has now given up a total of just one run over his last three starts, now with a 2.67 ERA (3.42 FIP), 1.28 WHIP, and a 14.5 […]


Ryan Waldschmidt Stays Hot, Smacks Two More Home Runs

Arizona Diamondbacks outfield prospect Ryan Waldschmidt belted a pair of home runs in a 3-for-5 day at the plate on Sunday for Double-A Amarillo, tallying five RBI in the process. The D-backs' top-ranked prospect has been on fire lately, going 15-for-34 (.441) over his last eight games, and has looked plenty comfortable at Double-A since his promotion to […]


Jonah Tong Named Mets Minor-League Pitcher of the Year

New York Mets pitching prospect Jonah Tong was named the organization's minor-league Pitcher of the Year for his performance this season. The Mets' fourth-ranked prospect pitched to a 1.43 ERA (1.68 FIP) and 0.92 WHIP, recording 179 strikeouts in just 113 2/3 innings pitched, which is still the most strikeouts in all the minor leagues despite […]


Carson Benge Named Mets Minor-League Player of the Year

New York Mets outfield prospect Carson Benge was named the organization's minor league Player of the Year on Monday. The Mets' top-ranked prospect had a strong year that began at High-A and ended at Triple-A. He slashed .308/.413/.513 with 12 home runs and 19 steals in 92 games between High-A and Double-A, although Triple-A proved a bit […]


Kevin Alcantara Recalled from Triple-A Iowa

Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Kevin Alcantara was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Sunday after Owen Caissie (concussion) hit the 7-day injured list with a concussion. The Cubs' fifth-ranked prospect was called up at the beginning of the month and had been sent back down to Triple-A the day before, but with Caissie on the IL, […]


Alfredo Duno, Cam Collier to Play in Arizona Fall League

Cincinnati Reds catching prospect Alfredo Duno and corner infield prospect Cam Collier are two top 100 prospects for the Reds who will be participating in the Arizona Fall League (AFL) this year. The season kicks off on October 6, and these two, along with four other Reds prospects, will compete for the Peoria Javelinas. Duno, […]
