Keith is a sports fanatic through and through. He has been immersed in the sports world as far back as he can remember, and played competitive baseball in high school and college (University of California -- San Diego) as a four-year captain. He also dabbled semi-professionally overseas for a short time before becoming obsessed with fantasy sports, starting in 2006. He's been writing and editing fantasy content ever since, with stops at KFFL and USA TODAY Sports. He has played alongside some of the brightest fantasy minds in the industry, including LABR (League of Alternate Baseball Reality).

Chris Godwin Practicing Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (knee) is practicing on Friday for the first time since he had surgery for a torn ACL. He is practicing with a brace on his surgically repaired right knee. It was big news when Godwin didn't begin training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, and now […]


Matthew Stafford's Elbow Is "A Tricky Deal"

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford's elbow issue isn't being called "tendinitis," but instead it's been described as "a tricky deal" and "abnormal for a QB", moreso "things that MLB pitchers deal with." The team is learning more about his injury "on the fly." Stafford looked great in limited repetitions on Thursday, but he's not […]


Cole Ragans To Make MLB Debut Thursday

Texas Rangers left-hander Cole Ragans, the team's No. 29 prospect per MLB Pipeline, is in Arlington with the taxi squad on Thursday and is expected to make his major league debut against the Chicago White Sox. The former first-rounder will get his first taste of big-league hitters after going 8-5 with a 3.04 ERA, 1.12 […]


Bryce Harper Hopes To Return In September

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Bryce Harper (elbow, thumb) gave a loose timetable for his return on Thursday. "We're still on the same timeline of September-ish and come back when I'm ready and able to come back," Harper said. It's not much of an update, but before Thursday, he had refused to put any sort of potential […]


Max Kepler Could Return This Weekend

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (toe), who is dealing with a fractured right fifth toe, said he's been running, hitting and throwing and felt fine after doing outfield work on Wednesday. He said he'll be back "soon." Skipper Rocco Baldelli said it's "possible" that Kepler is activated from the 10-day injured list this weekend. The […]


Whit Merrifield Making Season Debut For Blue Jays

Toronto Blue Jays second baseman/outfielder Whit Merrifield is making his debut with the team on Thursday against Minnesota Twins right-hander Sonny Gray, starting in center field and hitting eighth in the batting order. The Toronto Sun's Rob Longley is reporting that Merrifield is now vaccinated against COVID-19, so he'll be able to play for the […]


Mike Soroka To Begin Simulated Games Soon

Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker said that right-hander Mike Soroka (Achilles) will begin throwing simulated games soon, but no date has been given yet for a minor league rehab assignment. Soroka suffered a setback in his recovery when he was hit by a comebacker in the knee while throwing live batting practice in July. The […]


Ozzie Albies Plays Catch

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies (foot) played catch on Wednesday, according to skipper Brian Snitker, and he will soon ramp up other baseball activities. In a best-case scenario, Albies could return in early to mid-September. The 25-year-old is no longer using a walking boot and will continue to ramp up his rehab in the […]


Clayton Kershaw Leaves Thursday's Game Early With Injury

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw (back) left his start early on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants after warming up for the fifth inning with an apparent back injury. Kershaw didn't even wait for the trainer or manager Dave Roberts to get to the mound before walking off. Kershaw gave up two runs (one […]


George Springer Returns Against Twins

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (elbow) is back in the starting lineup on Thursday against Minnesota Twins right-hander Sonny Gray, serving as the designated hitter while manning his usual leadoff spot in the batting order. Springer will return to action after missing four of the team's last five games with a lingering elbow injury. […]


Kyle Tucker Scratched With Illness

Houston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker (illness) was scratched from the starting lineup on Thursday against the Cleveland Guardians, according to the team. Aledmys Diaz will get the nod in left field and will bat fifth in the batting order against Guardians right-hander Zach Plesac. Fantasy managers should consider Tucker day-to-day and remove him from their […]


Mike Trout Starts Rotational Exercises

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (back, ribs) started rotational work on Wednesday, which is intended to build him up to the point where he's able to swing, according to head athletic trainer Mike Frostad. However, there is no specific timetable on when he'll resume swinging a bat. The good news is that Trout is […]


Bubba Thompson Called Up, Making MLB Debut Thursday

The Texas Rangers are expected to promote outfield prospect Bubba Thompson to the major league roster on Thursday, according to a source. Thompson will make his MLB debut on Thursday against Chicago White Sox right-hander Johnny Cueto, starting in left field and batting ninth in the lineup. The team's No. 27 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, […]


Phillies Reinstate Jean Segura, Release Didi Gregorius

The Philadelphia Phillies reinstated second baseman Jean Segura (finger) from the 60-day injured list. In corresponding moves, the team activated right-hander Kyle Gibson from the bereavement list and released shortstop Didi Gregorius. Segura is back at the keystone and is hitting seventh on Thursday against Washington Nationals right-hander Paolo Espino, so fantasy managers need to […]


Jack Flaherty Could Return In Late August

St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said that right-hander Jack Flaherty (shoulder) will rejoin the team in St. Louis on Saturday. After he throws a bullpen session, the Cardinals will determine when and where Flaherty will head out on a minor league rehab assignment. There is hope from the team that he can return to […]


Evan Longoria Has A Good Chance To Return Monday

San Francisco Giants skipper Gabe Kapler said that there's a "good chance" that third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) will come off the injured list during the series that starts next Monday against the San Diego Padres. Longoria has been out since late July with a Grade 1 hamstring injury, but the injury doesn't look serious […]


Joc Pederson To Return On Saturday

San Francisco Giants outfielder Joc Pederson (concussion) will return from the seven-day injured list on Saturday, with infielder Thairo Estrada (concussion) likely returning a day later on Sunday. Pederson has been out of action since July 29, but he should return to San Francisco's starting lineup on Saturday against the Oakland Athletics. The 30-year-old left-handed […]


Michael Harris II Returns To The Lineup

Atlanta Braves rookie outfielder Michael Harris II (foot) is back in the starting lineup on Thursday against the division-rival New York Mets and right-hander Carlos Carrasco, starting in center field and batting ninth in the batting order. Harris was scratched from Wednesday's lineup due to a sore right foot, but the injury wasn't serious and […]


Jake Cronenworth Sitting Against A Lefty

San Diego Padres second baseman Jake Cronenworth is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against Colorado Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland. Cronenworth has been on a recent tear at the plate and is now slashing .244/.348/.402 with 11 home runs, 55 RBI, 68 runs scored and one stolen base in 393 at-bats after homering in […]


Kenneth Murray Could Return During Training Camp

Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Kenneth Murray (ankle) remains on the Physically Unable to Perform list after having offseason ankle surgery, but there's a chance he'll return to practices before the end of training camp. "I'm hoping it's some point during camp. We're not close yet, but he is improving, and he's getting more and more […]


DeAndre Carter Making An Impression

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver DeAndre Carter caught two touchdowns from backup quarterback Chase Daniel while working with the second-team offense on Wednesday. He's proving to be an offensive weapon in training camp on top of what he brings as a kick and punt returner. Carter has four touchdowns in seven-on-seven, red-zone drills over the […]


Trey McBride Dealing With Sore Back

Arizona Cardinals rookie tight end Trey McBride (back) has been resting the last couple days at training camp because of a sore back, according to head coach Kliff Kingsbury. The head coach wants McBride to be ready for the first preseason game next week on Aug. 12 so that he can start getting repetitions and […]


Romeo Doubs Impressing Aaron Rodgers

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers typically doesn't gush over rookie wide receivers, but Romeo Doubs has made quite the impression on the veteran QB during training camp so far this summer. Rodgers said he likes Doubs' approach and that he's very humble. The 22-year-old is getting a lot of opportunities to show his stuff […]


Matthew Stafford Not Participating In Team Drills

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (elbow) is dealing with a right elbow issue and isn't expected to throw in team drills for the next couple of practices in training camp. The elbow issues cropped up in the spring, and it's being described as bad tendinitis. Stafford received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his elbow […]


Joe Burrow Back With The Team

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (appendix) was back in the team's locker room at training camp on Thursday and seemed to be walking OK across the locker room. Burrow had surgery last Tuesday to remove his appendix, and head coach Zac Taylor said at the time that there was no timetable on Burrow's return. It's […]


Joey Gallo Making Dodgers Debut Thursday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Joey Gallo is making his debut with the team on Thursday against San Francisco Giants right-hander Jakob Junis, starting in left field and hitting sixth in the batting order. Gallo was dealt from the New York Yankees to the Dodgers at the trade deadline on Tuesday, but he didn't get the […]


Bills Bullish On Khalil Shakir

The Buffalo Bills seem bullish on rookie fifth-round wide receiver Khalil Shakir's potential this year despite his status as a late-round draft pick. Shakir had six good practices in a row at training camp before a temporary lapse with multiple drops on Monday. However, the rookie bounced back in practice on Tuesday, showing his usual […]


Marquez Stevenson To Miss Several Weeks

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Marquez Stevenson (foot) will miss several weeks after getting injured in training camp practice on Tuesday. It's another setback for Stevenson, who missed the early part of last season with an injury before returning and getting benched down the stretch. He was a bubble player […]


Jamison Crowder Returns To Team Drills

Buffalo Bills veteran wide receiver Jamison Crowder made a return to team drills on Tuesday at training camp after a five-practice absence due to general soreness. However, he got most his work with the Case Keenum-led offense rather than working with quarterback Josh Allen. Isaiah McKenzie has continued to build chemistry with Allen and appears […]


Isaiah McKenzie Continues To Stand Out

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie has been one of the standouts of the team's training camp to this point. He's been with the team since 2018 and has slowly worked himself into more significant roles over the years. "Job's up for grabs," McKenzie said of the slot receiver role. "Jamison Crowder came in, and […]
