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).

Spencer Turnbull Wins Rotation Spot

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Spencer Turnbull has won a spot on the Opening Day roster, according to a source. Turnbull benefits from Michael Fulmer undergoing Tommy John surgery and missing all of 2019. The 26-year-old right-hander had a 1.80 ERA with 15 strikeouts and two walks in 15 innings this spring, but he posted a […]


Jorge Polanco Dealing With Arm Fatigue

Minnesota Twins shortstop Jorge Polanco is battling some arm fatigue, but he served as the designated hitter in a minor league intrasquad game on Monday. Polanco's injury doesn't seem serious enough to keep him from playing on Opening Day this Thursday. The 25-year-old switch-hitter impressed by slashing .288/.345/.427 with six home runs, 42 RBI and […]


Luis Severino, Dellin Betances Throw Monday

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino (shoulder) and relief pitcher Dellin Betances (shoulder) both threw on Monday. Betances threw for the first time since being shut down and reported feeling good, according to manager Aaron Boone. Severino threw from 120 feet. Severino will miss at least all of April, but he's still a fantasy […]


A.J. Minter Makes Appearance Monday

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter (shoulder) was set to throw an inning in a minor league game on Monday. Both he and starter Kevin Gausman will start the year on the injured list but will be eligible to return on April 4. There is no timetable for Minter, but he's not that far behind. […]


Andrew Cashner Gets Opening Day Nod

Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that starting pitcher Andrew Cashner will start on Opening Day against the Yankees on the road. Cashner was one of the worst starters in the majors last year and went 4-15 with a 5.29 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 99 K's in 153 innings. The 32-year-old is an extremely dangerous […]


Mark Trumbo Could Go On 60-Day Injured List

Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias said that outfielder Mark Trumbo (knee) could go on the 60-day injured list to begin the season. The Orioles want him back as soon as possible, but they also want him 100 percent healthy. It's another reason not to roster Trumbo in mixed leagues in 2019 after he hit […]


Rhys Hoskins Plays Monday, Says He's Ready

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder/first baseman Rhys Hoskins (shoulder) returned to the Grapefruit League lineup on Monday and said that he's ready for the season opener on Thursday. Hoskins hit .246/.354/.496 with 34 home runs and 96 RBI in 153 games in his first season with Philadelphia and has big-time fantasy upside hitting in the heart of […]


Austin Hays Has Sprained Thumb

Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias said that outfield prospect Austin Hays' MRI exam showed a sprained thumb. Hays will be out for "weeks" rather than "months." Hays also dealt with injuries last year and played in just 75 games between Low-A Aberdeen and Double-A Bowie, hitting a combined .235 with 12 home runs, 46 […]


Alex Cobb Likely To Start On Injured List

Baltimore Orioles general manager Mike Elias said it's likely that starting pitcher Alex Cobb (groin) will start the year on the injured list, but he would be able to return for the home opener. Andrew Cashner is likely to step in and start on Opening Day in place of Cobb. The 31-year-old was 5-15 with […]


Rays Consider Extensions For Willy Adames, Brent Honeywell

The Tampa Bay Rays have reached out to shortstop Willy Adames and pitching prospect Brent Honeywell about potential long-term contract extensions. Honeywell was approached after he had Tommy John surgery. This comes after the Rays inked long-term deals for ace Blake Snell and utility man Brandon Lowe this spring. Tampa is looking to the future […]


Clayton Kershaw Throws Sim Game Monday

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw (shoulder) threw a simulated game on Monday. Manager Dave Roberts said "it was a good day for the Los Angeles Dodgers today." Kershaw will start on the injured list and might miss most of April for the Dodgers. Injuries the last two seasons and a noticeable drop in […]


Walker Buehler Could Start Fourth Game Of Season

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Walker Buehler (shoulder) threw a four-inning, 60-pitch bullpen session without any issues on Monday and told reporters the next step is to start in a regular season game. Buehler said he could start the team's fourth game of the regular season against the Diamondbacks on Sunday. It's not a guarantee […]


Adam Eaton To Hit Leadoff For Nats

Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez announced on Monday that outfielder Adam Eaton will serve as the club's leadoff hitter this year, with shortstop Trea Turner hitting second. Turner is the more prolific base stealer, but Eaton has a better on-base percentage over the last two seasons (.394). Martinez also confirmed that outfielder Victor Robles will […]


Ryan Braun Won't Take Part In Exhibition Games

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun will not play in exhibition games in Montreal against the Blue Jays on Monday and Tuesday because he does not have his passport with him. Braun his .318 with a home run in nine spring games this year after clubbing 20 home runs with a career-low .254 average in 125 […]


Jose Ramirez Takes Grounders Monday

Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez (knee) took ground balls on Monday at the team's spring training complex a day after he fouled a pitch off his left knee and had to be carted off the field. He will rejoin the team for a workout on Wednesday, but it's unknown if he will play on […]


Browns Have Plan For Kareem Hunt

Cleveland Browns general manager John Dorsey said the team has a plan for running back Kareem Hunt up until his suspension begins for the 2019 season. Hunt was suspended eight games by the NFL for two violations of the personal-conduct policy. The running back won't appeal the suspension and Dorsey said he is "most proud" […]


Raiders Sticking With Derek Carr As Starting Quarterback

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden confirmed that Derek Carr will be the team's starting quarterback in 2019. While the Raiders believe in Carr, they will still send personnel to meet with Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray and Ohio State signal-caller Dwayne Haskins. The Raiders own the fourth overall pick in the first round of this […]


Daniel Descalso Expected To Be Fine For Opening Day

Chicago Cubs utility man Daniel Descalso (shoulder) had a handful of at-bats and played multiple positions on the infield in a minor league game on Sunday. He'll likely play in one of the two upcoming games against the Red Sox and is expected to be fine for Opening Day. The 32-year-old veteran has proved to […]


Mark Zagunis On Track To Earn Roster Spot

Chicago Cubs outfielder Mark Zagunis appears to be the team's final bench player heading into Opening Day on Thursday. He went 2-for-3 with two walks in spring action on Sunday to list his Cactus League average to .357. "He's healthy," president of baseball operations Theo Epstein said, "and he's combining his really outstanding plate discipline […]


Yu Darvish To Throw Bullpen Thursday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Yu Darvish (finger) said he is scheduled for a bullpen session on Thursday. He's currently lined up to start the third game of the season on March 31 against the Rangers. The Japanese right-hander pitched with a bandage on his finger for parts of five innings in a minor league game […]


Carlos Martinez, Jedd Gyorko Put On Injured List

The St. Louis Cardinals placed starting pitcher Carlos Martinez (shoulder) and third baseman Jedd Gyorko (calf) on the 10-day injured list on Monday. Joining them there will be relief pitchers Brett Cecil (hand) and Luke Gregerson (shoulder) and outfielder Justin Williams (hand). Martinez dealt with arm issues in a disappointing 2018 campaign as well, so […]


Greg Holland Named D-Backs Closer

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Greg Holland will serve as the team's closer this year, with Archie Bradley and Yoshihisa Hirano serving as late-inning setup men. The 33-year-old does have the most closing experience in Arizona's bullpen with 189 career saves over eight big league seasons. The right-hander posted a league-leading 41 saves in 2017 with […]


X-Rays Negative On Jose Ramirez

Updating a previous report, X-rays on Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez (knee) came back negative on Sunday after he fouled a pitch off his left knee. The All-Star third baseman was carted off the field in the spring game in the third inning against the White Sox. There is no immediate timetable for his […]


Jeremy Maclin Calls It A Career

Former Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin announced on Sunday that he is retiring from the NFL after 10 years. Maclin was drafted in the first round in 2009 and spent six seasons with the Eagles alongside DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy. He is the 10th leading receiver in Philly franchise history after compiling 343 […]


Rob Gronkowski To Retire

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski announced on Sunday that he is retiring. The 29-year-old Gronk finished on a high note in the postseason and goes out on top with another Super Bowl ring, but he struggled to gain separation from defenders in the regular season and finished with 47 catches for 682 yards […]


Eric Lauer Named Opening Day Starter

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Eric Lauer will take the ball on Opening Day on Thursday, March 28, against the Giants. Second-year lefty Joey Lucchesi will pitch the second game. The 23-year-old Lauer will become the second youngest pitcher in Padres history to start the opener. He has 10 shutout innings across his last three […]


Yusei Kikuchi To Occasionally Serve As Opener

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi will pitch one inning every fifth start or so as an opener as the team looks for ways to limit Kikuchi's innings in his rookie season. The Mariners will likely call up one of their young starting candidates like Justus Sheffield or Erik Swanson to follow Kikuchi in those […]


Jose Ramirez Carted Off Field Sunday

Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez was carted off the field on Sunday in spring action after fouling a pitch off the inside of his left leg in the third inning against the White Sox. The All-Star immediately dropped to the ground and stayed down for several minutes before being joined by the team's medical […]


Indians Sign Brad Miller

The Cleveland Indians signed free-agent infielder Brad Miller to a major league contract on Sunday. Miller signed a minor league deal with the Dodgers on Feb. 27 but opted out of his contract on March 21. He will start the season on the Opening Day roster with both shortstop Francisco Lindor (calf) and second baseman […]


Bryse Wilson, Kyle Wright Make Rotation

Atlanta Braves rookie starting pitchers Bryse Wilson, 21, and Kyle Wright, 23, will follow Julio Teheran in the starting rotation for the opening series against the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. Wright is the team's No. 2 prospect, while Wilson comes in at No. 7, per MLB Pipeline. Touki Toussaint was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on […]
