Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Walker Buehler will start Game 3 of the National League Division Series against the Braves, according to manager Dave Roberts.

Russell Wilson A Full Participant In Practice
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson (hamstring) practiced in full on Wednesday. Wilson should have no problems playing in Week 5 against the Rams in a tough matchup, although his hamstring injury is worth watching with how much scrambling he does behind a suspect offensive line. With limited options in the passing game (although Doug Baldwin […]

Chris Carson, K.J. Wright, Frank Clark Miss Practice
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (hip), linebacker K.J. Wright (knee) and defensive end Frank Clark (illness) did not practice on Wednesday. Carson is expected to return to practice on Thursday. Carson was a surprise inactive in Week 4, and in his absence Mike Davis posted a 100-yard game. The 24-year-old should be able to […]

Amari Cooper, Kolton Miller Limited In Practice
Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper (foot) and rookie left tackle Kolton Miller (knee) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Cooper and Miller should be on track to play in Week 5 against the division-rival Chargers. The 24-year-old wideout has now had two 100-plus yard games and two stinkers in four weeks. He had […]

No Practice For Travis Benjamin Wednesday
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (foot) missed practice on Wednesday. Benjamin aggravated his foot injury in the win over the 49ers in Week 4 and is expected to miss multiple weeks again. In just two games in 2018, Benjamin has two catches on only six targets for a measly three yards. He's well […]

Jermaine Gresham Limited In Practice
Arizona Cardinals tight end Jermaine Gresham (Achilles) was limited in practice on Wednesday. The Cardinals are likely just resting Gresham ahead of his third game of the season in Week 5 against the 49ers. Through his two games played, the veteran tight end has only one catch on two targets for nine yards. Ricky Seals-Jones […]

Larry Fitzgerald Misses Practice Again Wednesday
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (back, hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday and is listed as day-to-day, according to head coach Steve Wilks. The Cardinals are just being cautious with their veteran wideout, and we'd expect him to play against the Niners in Week 5. However, with Arizona's offense going in the tank after […]

Greg Bird, CC Sabathia Left Off Wild-Card Roster
New York Yankees first baseman Greg Bird and starting pitcher CC Sabathia were left off the wild-card roster for Wednesday against the A's. Pitcher Sonny Gray was also left off.

Chicago Cubs president Theo Epstein said that manager Joe Maddon will return in 2019 despite uncertainty stemming from the team's disappointing end to the 2018 season. The Cubs were eliminated 2-1 in 13 innings in the wild-card game on Wednesday against the Rockies. Chicago has been a playoff team in all four years Maddon has […]

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale threw his second bullpen session in as many days on Wednesday in anticipation of his start in Game 1 of the American League Division Series on Friday.

Alfred Morris, Jaquiski Tartt Practice In Full
San Francisco 49ers running back Alfred Morris (knee) and safety Jaquiski Tartt (shoulder) were both full participants in practice on Wednesday. Both are lined up to play in Week 5 against the Cardinals. Morris had a terrible game with just four carries for 14 yards in Week 4 against the Chargers. He's had 3.8 yards […]

Matt Breida Limited In Practice Wednesday
San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. As long as he doesn't suffer a setback this week, Breida should be good to go in Week 5 against the Cardinals in a great matchup. Arizona allows the second most fantasy points per week to running backs. Breida had a […]

Charles Clay Limited In Practice
Buffalo Bills tight end Charles Clay (ankle) was limited in practice on Wednesday. With a terrible offensive line and a rookie quarterback under center, Clay just can't be trusted by fantasy owners in starting lineups. He had his best game of the season in Week 4, catching four passes on six targets for 40 yards. […]

Marcus Mariota, Blaine Gabbert Practice In Full
Tennessee Titans quarterbacks Marcus Mariota (elbow) and Blaine Gabbert (concussion) and running back David Fluellen (groin) all practiced in full on Wednesday. Mariota appears to be past his elbow issues after going 30-for-43 for 344 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in the Week 4 win over the Eagles. He also ran for his first […]

Corey Davis Limited Wednesday
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis (illness) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Davis should be fine to suit up this weekend against the Bills. He's coming off by far his best game of the season in Week 4 when he had nine catches on 15 targets for 161 yards and a touchdown. Davis' fantasy […]
Keith Hernandez
Von Miller Limited Wednesday
Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller (thigh) was limited in practice Wednesday. Miller should be fine to suit up in Week 5 against the Jets. Miller has been surprisingly quiet the last few weeks and has just three tackles and no sacks in that time period. Through four weeks, the 29-year-old has 15 total tackles, four […]

Bucs Work Out Charcandrick West
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers worked out free-agent running back Charcandrick West on Wednesday, according to a source. West had 18 carries for 72 yards and two touchdowns while also adding 27 receptions for 150 yards and two more scores in 2017 with the Chiefs. Tampa's running back situation hasn't looked good through four weeks with […]

Kris Bryant Not Expected To Need Surgery
Chicago Cubs president Theo Epstein said that third baseman Kris Bryant (shoulder) is not expected to need offseason surgery. Bryant's 2018 season was a disaster because of his shoulder injury that he suffered during a slide in June. He was gone for an extended time and wasn't the same in the second half when he […]

Damarious Randall Effective While Playing Injured
Cleveland Browns safety Damarious Randall (heel), who suffered a badly bruised heel on Sept. 16 against the Saints, has been effective while playing hurt. He has only taken part in one practice and was limited since getting hurt. Despite that, he was the highest ranked safety at Pro Football Focus in Week 4 and has […]

Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson said he has "a great level of optimism" that both wide receivers Jarvis Landry (knee) and rookie Antonio Callaway (knee) will be able to play in Week 5 against the Ravens after sitting out of practice on Wednesday.

Chicago Cubs president Theo Epstein said that the team would be interested in bringing starting pitcher Cole Hamels back for next season. “He’s absolutely someone we want to be part of the mix going forward.

Jhoulys Chacin To Start Game 2 On Short Rest
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jhoulys Chacin will start Game 2 of the National League Division Series against the Rockies on Friday on short rest. Chacin allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings to help beat the Cubs to capture the division title on Monday. However, we wouldn't expect better results on short rest this Friday […]

Wade Miley Projected To Start Game 1 Of NLDS
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Wade Miley is projected to start Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Rockies on Thursday. The left-hander was a nice surprise in 2018, going 5-2 with a 2.75 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 50 strikeouts in 80 2/3 innings over 16 starts. However, he struck out just 5.6 […]

Antonio Senzatela Likely To Start Game 1 of NLDS
Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said that starting pitcher Antonio Senzatela is likely to start Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Brewers on Thursday. The right-hander has been much better as a starter than a reliever this year, posting a 3.95 ERA with 55 strikeouts and 24 walks in 13 starts. […]

Marshawn Lynch, Jalen Richard Miss Practice Wednesday
Oakland Raiders running backs Marshawn Lynch (groin, shoulder) and Jalen Richard did not take part in practice on Wednesday. It's the first missed practice for both players this year. Lynch hardly practices during the week to begin with, so this shouldn't be much of a cause for concern. He's looked like the Beast Mode of […]

T.Y. Hilton, Marlon Mack, Jack Doyle Ruled Out
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest, hamstring), running back Marlon Mack (hamstring) and tight end Jack Doyle (hip) have all been ruled out for Thursday night against the Patriots. Hilton leads the team with 21 catches for 294 yards on 38 targets through four weeks. That leaves the Colts criminally short-handed against New England. […]

Joe Mixon Will Play Against Dolphins
Updating previous reports, Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (knee) practiced on Wednesday and will play in Week 5 against the Dolphins, according to head coach Marvin Lewis. Mixon had arthroscopic surgery on Sept. 15 and missed two games. While Mixon could be eased back in, he immediately returns to the RB2 map for fantasy […]

Giovani Bernard Misses Practice Wednesday
Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Bernard's injury coupled with the likely return of Joe Mixon (knee) in Week 5 against the Dolphins means that Bernard's value is dropping after he served as an RB1 the two weeks that Mixon was out. At best, Bernard might be an RB3/flex […]

Dalvin Cook, Trae Waynes Not Practicing
Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) and cornerback Trae Waynes (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Cook admitted Monday that his hamstring is still bothering him after he had only 10 carries (none in the second half) for just 20 yards last Thursday. Even when healthy, he's averaged just 2.7 yards per carry and […]
