Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. came into the NFL with sky-high expectations as the son of former NFL stud Marvin Harrison Sr. and as the fourth overall pick in 2024 out of Ohio State. Through his first two years in the league, the 23-year-old has failed to live up to those expectations, catching […]

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler had five home runs and hit .253 (20-for-79) in 22 games (93 plate appearances) in April, but he has gone a bit quiet in May and is now hitting .221 (32-for-145) overall with eight long balls, 28 RBI, and 20 runs scored in 40 games in his 13th season […]

Kansas City Chiefs running back Brashard Smith is currently listed as No. 2 on the RB depth chart for the Chiefs behind new starter Kenneth Walker III, but the 23-year-old has fallen all the way to No. 74 in RotoBaller's dynasty RB rankings despite Kareem Hunt and Isiah Pacheco both departing in free agency in […]

Ben Sinnott's Dynasty Value Hindered by Free-Agent TE Addition

Fantasy managers holding Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott were hoping that he'd be next in line to replace veteran Zach Ertz (knee) as the team's top pass-catching tight end going into the 2026 season. However, the Commanders signed Chig Okonkwo in free agency (three years for $30 million), and he figures to get the […]

Zebby Matthews Generates Waiver Interest After Strong First Start on Thursday

Minnesota Twins right-hander Zebby Matthews should generate some waiver-wire interest after he impressed in his first start of the 2026 season in a win over the Miami Marlins on Thursday in the series finale.

Tarik Skubal Resumes Playing Catch, Ahead of Schedule?

Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal (elbow) is already playing catch just barely a week removed from elbow surgery, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.

Payton Tolle Worth a Waiver Pickup Despite Tough Upcoming Matchup

Boston Red Sox left-hander Payton Tolle is worth considering off the waiver wire despite allowing a season-high seven hits and three earned runs in five innings in a loss in his last outing against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays.

Cleveland Guardians rookie second baseman Travis Bazzana, the team's top prospect per MLB Pipeline, is worth considering off the waiver wire for his speed and on-base abilities after recently debuting in the big leagues.

The 24-year-old third-rounder out of Tulane in […]

Jaylen Wright a Buy-Low Candidate as a Handcuff?

Make no mistake about it, Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane's four-year, $68 million contract extension that he signed on Wednesday is bad news for Jaylen Wright's fantasy stock in dynasty leagues. In Wright's second NFL season in 2025, he had nearly identical numbers to his rookie campaign while playing in five fewer games, although […]

Ollie Gordon II's Dynasty Value Takes a Hit After Teammate's Extension

The Miami Dolphins signed starting running back De'Von Achane to a four-year, $68 million contract extension on Wednesday, which is bad news for both Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Edwin Arroyo Adding to Versatility With Reps at Third Base

Triple-A Louisville manager Pat Kelly said that the Bats introduced Cincinnati Reds infield prospect Edwin Arroyo to third base a couple of weeks ago, per Charlie Goldsmith of FOX 19.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (back) has resumed playing catch over the last couple of days, and the goal is for him to get off a mound soon, according to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic.
