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).

White Sox Acquire Former Top Prospect Manny Banuelos

The Chicago White Sox acquired starting pitcher Manny Banuelos from the Dodgers on Thursday in exchange for minor league infielder Justin Yurchak. The left-handed Banuelos was once a top prospect of the Yankees, but he has thrown only 26 1/3 innings in the majors and not since 2015 with the Braves. He went 9-7 with […]


Padres Claim Greg Garcia Off Waivers

The San Diego Padres claimed infielder Greg Garcia off waivers from the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday. Garcia hit just .221/.309/.304 with three home runs and 15 RBI in 181 at-bats as a bench player for the Red Birds in 2018, so he obviously carries very minimal value in NL-only leagues. The good news is […]


Stefon Diggs, Roc Thomas Miss Practice Again

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (ribs) and rookie running back Roc Thomas (hamstring) both missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. While Diggs says he expects to play in Week 9 against the Lions, his status is a real concern going into Friday. He's looking like a low-end WR2 as of right […]


Quincy Enunwa, Robby Anderson Still Sidelined

New York Jets wide receivers Quincy Enunwa (ankle) and Robby Anderson (ankle) remain out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Neither appears to be on track to return in Week 9 to face the Dolphins, which would once again leave the Jets extremely thin at receiver. Jermaine Kearse has been operating as […]


Royce Freeman Back At Practice Thursday

Denver Broncos rookie running back Royce Freeman (knee) is back at practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Freeman suffered a high ankle sprain Thursday in Week 7 and missed last Sunday's game. There's still no guarantee he'll be active against the Texans this Sunday, and with the game in the late afternoon, Freeman […]


Stefon Diggs Expects To Play Against Lions

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (rib), who missed practice on Wednesday, said he "absolutely" expects to play in Week 9 against the Lions. Diggs bounced back last weekend but picked up this injury late, which is clouding his status for this Sunday. The Lions are a somewhat difficult matchup for opposing wideouts, so Diggs […]


Josh Allen Could Resume Throwing Soon

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that rookie quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) is "not too far off" from throwing. However, Allen was still wearing a brace on his right elbow on Thursday. The Bills will likely be forced to start turnover-prone Nathan Peterman in Week 9 against the Bears after Derek Anderson suffered a […]


Matt Breida, Raheem Mostert Expected To Be Active

San Francisco 49ers running backs Matt Breida (ankle) and Raheem Mostert (ankle), who are both questionable, are expected to play on Thursday against the Raiders, according to a source. Breida has been questionable for a handful of games this year but has played through his injuries. This Thursday shouldn't be any different in a great […]


Alex Collins Downgraded Thursday

Baltimore Ravens running back Alex Collins (foot) missed practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday. It's not a good sign for his availability for a big divisional game against the Steelers this Sunday, but Collins' practice status on Friday will be very important. The leader in this backfield, Collins hasn't done much damage in […]


Gerald McCoy, Jason Pierre-Paul Out Of Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy (calf) and defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul (foot, ribs) both missed practice on Thursday. McCoy was limited on Wednesday, so he may have suffered a setback after missing Week 8. JPP hasn't practiced yet this week, which is a huge concern for Tampa's pass rush against Carolina this weekend. […]


Mike Evans Returns To Practice

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (knee) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. It's a good sign that Evans will be able to play in Week 9 against the Panthers. He exploded for well over 100 yards receiving last Sunday and will once again be a strong WR1 this weekend […]


Eduardo Nunez Opts To Stay In Boston

Boston Red Sox infielder Eduardo Nunez exercised his $5 million player option for the 2019 season on Thursday. Nunez was a postseason hero for a big three-run homer in Game 1 of the World Series against the Dodgers, but he was somewhat of a disappointment during the regular season, mainly due to nagging lower-body issues. […]


Dodgers Extend David Freese's Option Deadline

The Los Angeles Dodgers and corner infielder David Freese agreed to extend the deadline on his option decision until Friday at 4 pm ET. Freese hit an exceptional .296/.359/.471 with 11 home runs and 51 RBI in 280 at-bats between the Pirates and Dodgers during the regular season, but his true value comes in his […]


Dodgers Extend Deadline With Clayton Kershaw

The Los Angeles Dodgers and starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw extended the deadline on his 2019 option decision until Friday at 4 pm ET. Kershaw has been expected to opt out of his 2019 option, but the Dodgers are now expected to sign him to a short-term contract extension to keep him around for at least […]


Byron Marshall Could Come Off IR Next Week

Washington Redskins running back Byron Marshall (ankle) went through drills for a second straight day on Thursday and is eligible to come off Injured Reserve next Monday. He has been running just fine and could become an option on third downs with Chris Thompson (ribs) banged up. It's notable with Thompson likely to miss another […]


Chris Thompson, Jamison Crowder Missing Practice Again

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (ribs) and wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) are both sitting out of practice for the second straight day. Neither player looks to have a good chance of playing in Week 9 against the Falcons. With Adrian Peterson turning back the clock in the backfield, Thompson was rarely used last […]


Justin Houston To Return To Practice

Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring), who has missed the last three games, will return to practice on Thursday, according to head coach Andy Reid. It remains to be seen if Houston will actually be able to return in Week 9 against the Browns, but it's a good sign for a defense that needs […]


No Practice For Kenny Stills

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills (groin) isn't practicing on Thursday for the second straight day. Stills appears on his way to missing his second straight game after suffering the injury in Week 7. Stills has been on the decline ever since his two-touchdown game in the season opener, so he should be left to […]


Torrey Smith Still Out Thursday

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Torrey Smith (knee) remained out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Smith missed the Week 8 game and is well on his way to missing his second straight contest. Rookie D.J. Moore stepped into a bigger role and didn't disappoint. Even if Smith is able to play against […]


Julian Edelman Back At Practice Thursday

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (ankle, illness) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Edelman will be just fine for Week 9 against the Packers in what is expected to be a shootout on Sunday night. The 32-year-old had a season-high nine catches on 10 targets for 104 yards in […]


Rob Gronkowski Missing Practice Thursday

New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski (back) is not practicing on Thursday. Gronk was limited on Wednesday, so this could be a sign that he's not completely over his back spasms that kept him sidelined in Week 8. While we still think Gronkowski will play in Week 9 against the Packers, it's something worth […]


Deion Jones Tests Foot Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons linebacker Deion Jones (foot), who has been out since the season opener with a broken right foot, tested his foot in practice on Wednesday. He had both feet taped and did very little during the walkthrough while working off to the side with trainers. Jones is on Injured Reserve and will be eligible […]


Khalil Mack On Same Plan As Last Week

Chicago Bears defensive end Khalil Mack (ankle) missed practice on Wednesday and is on the same plan as he was last week, according to head coach Matt Nagy. “Hopefully he’s getting better — I feel like he is,” Nagy said. “It’s gonna be what we just went through last week. It’s gonna be very similar […]


Geoff Swaim Won't Practice Thursday

Dallas Cowboys tight end Geoff Swaim (knee) will not practice on Thursday, according to head coach Jason Garrett. Swaim is dealing with an MCL sprain and while he had extra time to rest during the bye last week, it seems like he'll be doubtful to play on Monday night against the Titans. Swaim only has […]


Rashard Higgins Returns To Practice

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Rashard Higgins (knee) returned to practice on Thursday after missing practice on Wednesday. Higgins has missed the last three games with a sprained MCL, but he has a real shot at returning in a great matchup in Week 9 against the Chiefs. While rookies Antonio Callaway and Damion Ratley have been […]


C.J. Beathard 50-50 For Thursday Night

San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard (wrist) is "truly 50-50 for tonight's game (vs. Raiders)," according to a source. Beathard has struggled to grip the football during practices this week, but he made some progress in the walkthrough on Wednesday and will be a game-time decision. Even against a struggling Raiders defense, Beathard would be […]


Delanie Walker Could Return In Postseason

Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker (ankle), who began walking with crutches over the weekend, is hoping he can return if the team makes the playoffs. "That's a plus," Walker said. "But who knows when I'm able to start running again? That's all I'm looking forward to is just being able to take this boot […]


Cam Newton's Shoulder Feels Great

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (shoulder) was limited in practice on Wednesday and didn't throw during the 20-minute portion open to the media, which was the same as last week. Head coach Ron Rivera said that's "the new normal" for Newton. Even if Newton isn't throwing, he's getting mental repetitions and constantly communicating with coaches […]


Brian McCann Hits The Free-Agent Market

The Houston Astros declined to pick up catcher Brian McCann's $15 million option for the 2019 season, making him a free agent. McCann played in just 63 games in his second year in Houston due to injuries and he wasn't very good when he did play, hitting .212/.301/.339 with seven home runs and 23 RBI. […]


Doug Baldwin Back On Injury Report

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) is back on the Week 9 injury report and was limited in practice on Wednesday. Baldwin should suit up this Sunday against the Chargers, but it's a reminder that he'll continue to be hobbled on two bad knees for the rest of the year. It's also a big […]
