Zach Wilson Inconsistent Early In Training Camp

New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson looked more comfortable dealing with pressure from the defensive line at training camp practice on Friday than he did the day prior, but two of his three incompletions on the day were interceptions.

Buffalo Bills safety Micah Hyde (hip, glute) suffered an injury in Friday's training camp practice, according to the team.

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Maurice Hurst (biceps) tore his biceps muscle in Friday's training camp practice, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.

Jalen Reagor Battling For Roster Spot

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that wide receiver Jalen Reagor "is battling for a spot" at training camp this summer. Reagor has been working with the second-team offense in training camp practices so far after being a first-round pick in 2020. The 23-year-old hasn't done much to justify a roster spot in his […]

Blue Jays Interested In Michael Fulmer

C.J. Cron, Daniel Bard Unlikely To Be Traded

The Colorado Rockies are likely to remain quiet at this year's trade deadline, which means it's unlikely they'll deal first baseman C.J. Cron or closer Daniel Bard.

Cardinals Pursuing Frankie Montas

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Frankie Montas is one of the starters that the St. Louis Cardinals are pursuing with the trade deadline nearing. Starting pitching is a far greater need for the Cardinals because of injuries to Jack Flaherty and Steven Matz. The A's, according to sources, want some of the same prospects for Montas […]

Cleveland Guardians outfielder/first baseman Josh Naylor (ankle) was scratched from the starting lineup on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays due to right ankle soreness.

Kansas City Royals rookie shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup on Saturday against New York Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes, serving as the designated hitter and batting second in the lineup. Fantasy managers were beginning to wonder if Witt would require a trip to the injured list after he missed the […]

Austin Hedges Resting Saturday

Cleveland Guardians catcher Austin Hedges is not in the starting lineup on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Hedges is hitting just .172/.235/.278 on the season with six home runs, 18 RBI, 16 runs scored and a stolen base in 180 at-bats, so he hasn't been of much help to fantasy managers, even in two-catcher […]

Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Jose Quintana went 5 2/3 scoreless innings against the Philadelphia Phillies in a no-decision on Friday, allowing four hits while walking two and striking out four in the eventual 4-2 loss.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 3-for-5 with two more home runs (including a grand slam), six RBI, two runs scored and a strikeout in the team's 11-5 blowout win over the Kansas City Royals on Friday.

Frankie Montas Now Yankees' Top Target

With right-hander Luis Castillo being traded to the Seattle Mariners on Friday night, Oakland Athletics right-hander Frankie Montas is now the New York Yankees' top starting pitcher target before Tuesday's trade deadline.

Marcus Mariota Looking Good In Training Camp

Although it's early in training camp, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota has looked good.

Rookie third-rounder Desmond Ridder also […]
