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).

DeVonta Smith Says He's Not A Body Builder

Alabama wide receiver and Heisman Trophy winner DeVonta Smith, who had 1,856 receiving yards and 23 touchdowns last season, has been criticized for weighing in at just 166 pounds at the medical checkup in Indianapolis earlier this month. But Smith doesn't think he's too light to be successful at the next level. "We play football. […]


Washington Trades For Ereck Flowers

The Washington Football Team acquired offensive guard Ereck Flowers from the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday in a trade that involves a swap of late-round draft picks, according to sources. The move frees up some money for the Dolphins, while Washington receives an offensive lineman that will compete for a starting job this year. Flowers initially […]


Jose Altuve Records Three Hits In Return

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve went 3-for-5 with two RBI, a run scored and a stolen base out of the leadoff spot in a 5-2 win over the Seattle Mariners on Monday in his return after missing nearly two weeks due to a positive COVID-19 test. In the process, he raised his batting average […]


Corbin Burnes Taken Down By Marlins Monday

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Corbin Burnes struck out nine hitters through five innings against the Miami Marlins on Monday, but five straight hitters recorded knocks to begin the sixth inning on the way to an 8-0 defeat of the Brew Crew. On the bright side, the hard-throwing right-hander will still have a chance for history, […]


Shohei Ohtani Does It All In Win Over Rangers

Los Angeles Angeles starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani allowed four runs in the first inning on Monday against the Texas Rangers, but he went 2-for-3 at the plate with two RBI and three runs scored in the 9-4 win. He also struck out nine hitters in five innings to pick up his first win since […]


Rangers Call Up Hyeon-Jong Yang, Option Leody Taveras

The Texas Rangers called up former Korean standout pitcher Hyeon-Jong Yang from the alternate site on Monday before their series opener against the Los Angeles Angels. Struggling rookie center fielder Leody Taveras was optioned in a corresponding move. First baseman/outfielder Ronald Guzman (knee) was also moved to the 60-day injured list. The 33-year-old left-hander was […]


Jake Odorizzi Placed On Injured List Monday

Houston Astros starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi (arm) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Monday with a strained muscle in his right arm. Odorizzi left his start early on Saturday after just five pitches, and manager Dusty Baker announced on Monday that Odorizzi has a strained right pronator. The Astros are hoping that the […]


Baker Mayfield Not Worried About Contract Extension

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield is under contract through the 2022 season after the team recently picked up his fifth-year option, and he said on Monday that he's not worried about a long-term deal. "The fifth-year option just happened, so a long-term deal I think is a little bit on the back burner for me," […]


Raiders Sign Carson Williams

The Las Vegas Raiders signed free-agent tight end Carson Williams to an undisclosed deal on Monday. Williams has not played football since eighth grade but played college basketball at Northern Kentucky and Western Kentucky. The 6-foot-5, 240-pounder started 117 collegiate games as a forward. He caught the attention of scouts and the Raiders at his […]


Packers Expected To Exercise Jaire Alexander's Fifth-Year Option

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said that "I would certainly expect us to do so," when asked about cornerback Jaire Alexander's fifth-year option for the 2022 season. It comes as no surprise after Alexander made his first Pro Bowl and earned second-team All-Pro honors in 2020. The question now becomes do the Packers […]


Asante Samuel Jr. Could Be A First-Rounder

NFL Network's Brian Baldinger praised Florida State cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. on Monday and could see Samuel being selected in the first round of this Thursday's NFL draft. "I mean, it's a cornerback-driven league as much as it's a quarterback-driven league. I think five could go and I think Asante Samuel is going to be […]


Titans Want Plug-And-Play Prospects

Tennessee Titans general manager Jon Robinson said that he's looking to add plug-and-play prospects in this year's NFL draft, which starts this Thursday. "I think as soon as those guys can contribute, the sooner the better," Robinson told reporters. "And we've had guys that maybe it's been injuries … but the quicker they can acclimate […]


Packers Considering Trading Up In First Round?

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst admitted on Monday that there is temptation to try and trade up from No. 29 overall in the first round of this Thursday's NFL draft. "It's always tempting for me," Gutekunst said. "I think when you're sitting at [No.] 29 and watching those kind of players come off […]


John Lynch To Defer To Kyle Shanahan On QB Decision

The San Francisco 49ers have narrowed their options with the No. 3 overall pick in the first round of Thursday's NFL draft to Alabama quarterback Mac Jones and North Dakota State signal-caller Trey Lance. They are still comfortable with five QBs at No. 3 -- Ohio State's Justin Fields, Clemson's Trevor Lawrence, BYU's Zach Wilson, […]


Jesus Aguilar On The Rise

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar is back to hitting the ball hard this year after giving up arugula for arepas. Aguilar was one of the team's best players in the shortened 2020 season when he hit .277/.352/.457 with eight home runs and 34 RBI in 51 games, and he has retained that good form […]


Packers Reiterate That Aaron Rodgers Is Their Guy

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst told reporters at his pre-draft press conference that quarterback Aaron Rodgers is their guy. "He's our quarterback for the foreseeable future," Gutekunst said. Rodgers currently has three years left on his deal and will count $37.202 million against this year's salary cap, so the Packers have been trying […]


Mike Trout Expects To Return Monday Night

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (elbow) said he's feeling better after being hit by a fastball on his left elbow last Thursday and expects to return to the lineup for the series opener on Monday against the Texas Rangers. Trout missed three games with a bruised elbow. He took some swings on Sunday and […]


Shohei Ohtani Leads MLB In Home Runs

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter/starting pitcher Shohei Ohtani, who will start on the mound in the series opener against the Texas Rangers on Monday, is MLB's co-leader in home runs with seven. The last time a pitcher led baseball in home runs was when Babe Ruth had 19 round-trippers and was the New York Yankees […]


49ers To Pick Up Mike McGlinchey's Option

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said that the team will pick up starting offensive lineman Mike McGlinchey's fifth-year option for the 2022 season. McGlinchey will be guaranteed $10.88 million for the 2022 season. San Francisco drafted him with the No. 9 overall pick in 2018 out of Notre Dame. McGlinchey had a 79.7 […]


Buccaneers Exercise Vita Vea's Fifth-Year Option

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers exercised their fifth-year option on defensive tackle Vita Vea on Monday, as expected. General manager Jason Licht previously said that it was "safe to say" that the team would pick up Vea's option. Tampa took Vea in the first round in 2018, and he'll remain with the team through the 2022 […]


Steelers Prefer Prospects That Didn't Opt Out In 2020

Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert said that the team prefers college draft prospects that didn't opt out of the 2020 season due to concerns over COVID-19. "As I stated in the summer, if a player chooses to opt out for whatever reason, that's their decision and we will respect it," Colbert said. "However, if […]


Marcus Gilbert Announces Retirement

Arizona Cardinals right tackle Marcus Gilbert announced his retirement from the NFL on Monday on his Twitter page. Gilbert was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the second round in 2011 out of the University of Florida. He played in eight seasons for the Steelers before being traded to the Cardinals in 2019 for a […]


Rockies GM Jeff Bridich Resigns

Colorado Rockies general manager and executive vice president Jeff Bridich resigned from his position on Monday. The move was "mutually agreed" upon, according to the Rockies. Colorado will name an interim general manager for the rest of the season and then conduct a search for a permanent replacement after the season. Greg Feasel has been […]


Orlando Brown Wants To Stay In KC A Long Time

Kansas City Chiefs left tackle Orlando Brown, who was acquired from the Baltimore Ravens last week, is heading into the final year of his contract. But the former third-round pick wants to prove he was worth the trade while also being worthy of a long-term deal with the Chiefs. "I want to be here for […]


Luis Robert Continues To Improve

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert, who was having trouble making consistent contact through the latter part of his rookie season, has taken steps to resolve that issue in 2021. He swings at four of every five pitches he sees in the strike zone, one of the highest rates in the game, and in 2020 […]


Sean Lee Announces Retirement

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee announced his retirement from the NFL after 11 seasons with the Cowboys on Monday. While injuries ended up defining his career, Lee also made two Pro Bowls and was a first-team All-Pro selection in 2016. The 34-year-old has five of the top-seven tackle games in Dallas history, including a record […]


Patriots Eyeing Justin Fields?

Several teams have been making calls about getting into the top 10 of this week's NFL draft, including the New England Patriots, who could be eyeing Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields if he begins to fall in the early part of the first round. The current sweet spot is No. 7 overall with the Detroit […]


Falcons Receiving Calls On Julio Jones

The Atlanta Falcons have received calls from teams inquiring about possible trades for All-Pro wide receiver Julio Jones, according to sources. A trade cannot happen for salary cap reasons before June 1, but teams know the Falcons tough cap situation and are calling to gauge interest. Owner Arthur Blank said earlier this offseason that he […]


Johan Oviedo Expected To Start Wednesday

The St. Louis Cardinals are moving to a six-man starting rotation, with Johan Oviedo expected to make his first start of the year on Wednesday against the Philadelphia Phillies at home. Oviedo tossed 4 2/3 innings of shutout baseball on April 11 after coming on in relief for starter Daniel Ponce de Leon in the […]


Harrison Bader Could Rejoin Team In 7-10 Days

St. Louis Cardinals managers Mike Shildt said that outfielder Harrison Bader (forearm) is progressing and could join the team within the next seven to 10 days. Bader suffered a right forearm strain in the last week of spring training and has yet to make his 2021 season debut. Bader is taking live batting practice and […]
