Chris Sale To Start Game 1 Of World Series

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that starting pitcher Chris Sale (illness) will start Game 1 of the World Series against either the Brewers or Dodgers. While it's not official yet, it will "probably" be David Price in Game 2 in Boston. Sale will have plenty of rest, with his last start coming in […]

Nick Chubb Sees Immediate Boost

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Nick Chubb will see his role boosted significantly with the team trading Carlos Hyde to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Friday. Chubb has 173 yards on just 16 carries (10.8 yards per carry) and two scores in six games this year, but he just wasn't seeing enough work behind Hyde and […]

Gerald McCoy, Vinny Curry Out In Week 7

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy (calf) and defensive end Vinny Curry (ankle) have both been ruled out for Week 7 against the Browns. Rookie defensive tackle Vita Vea will make his first NFL start in place of McCoy. For a Tampa defense that has struggled mightily this year, it won't help to be […]

Theo Riddick Ruled Out Against Dolphins

Detroit Lions running back Theo Riddick (knee) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Dolphins. Coming off the bye week, this isn't a good sign for Riddick. He might not be able to return in Week 8 either. In his absence, rookie Kerryon Johnson should see a bigger […]

Matt Davidson Trying To Become Two-Way Player

Chicago White Sox third baseman Matt Davidson will focus on becoming a two-way player this offseason. The White Sox support the decision and plan on assessing him throughout the offseason. Davidson tossed three scoreless innings in three blowout games in 2018, giving up one hit and a walk while striking out two. He has a […]

DeVante Parker, Cameron Wake Questionable For Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (quadriceps) and defensive end Cameron Wake (knee) both practiced in full on Friday but are questionable for Week 7 against the Lions. Parker practiced all week and should be fine. He has just two catches on four targets for 40 yards in two games this year, though, and shouldn't […]

Emmanuel Sanders Fine, Royce Freeman Day-To-Day

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ankle) is fine after tweaking his ankle late in the Thursday night blowout of the Cardinals. Running back Royce Freeman (ankle) and wide receiver Daesean Hamilton (knee) are listed as day-to-day. Sanders had his best game of the season Thursday, catching six of seven targets for 102 yards and […]

Allen Robinson, Khalil Mack Questionable Against Pats

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson (groin) and defensive end Khalil Mack (ankle) are both questionable for Week 7 against the Patriots. However, both players returned to practice on Friday, and we'd expect them to play on Sunday. Robinson is a fine No. 2 fantasy wideout in an attackable matchup against New England's secondary. Mack […]

Adrian Peterson, Chris Thompson Listed As Questionable

Washington Redskins running backs Adrian Peterson (ankle, shoulder) and Chris Thompson (knee, rib) are both questionable for Week 7 against the Cowboys. Both players are expected to play in this one, and the Redskins could lean heavily on their backs with receivers Jamison Crowder out and Paul Richardson questionable. Peterson is a volume-based RB2 that […]

Paul Richardson Doubtful To Face Cowboys

Washington Redskins wide receiver Paul Richardson (knee, shoulder) is doubtful to play in Week 7 against the Cowboys. The Redskins are now running dangerously thin on receivers with Jamison Crowder (ankle) ruled out for the second straight game. Quarterback Alex Smith will have to lean on Josh Doctson and Maurice Harris as well as tight […]

Jamison Crowder To Miss Second Straight Game

Washington Redskins wide receiver Jamison Crowder (ankle) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Cowboys, according to head coach Jay Gruden. Crowder will miss his second straight game. After being talked about as a potential breakout candidate for the second straight year, Crowder continues to disappoint fantasy owners and can probably be dropped […]

Royce Freeman Dealing With High Ankle Sprain

Denver Broncos rookie running back Royce Freeman (ankle) suffered a high ankle sprain in the win over the Cardinals on Thursday night. Normally a multi-week injury, the Broncos are optimistic that Freeman may not miss any time. The Broncos have 10 days until they face the Chiefs in Week 8, so if Freeman heals quickly, […]

Colts Optimistic T.Y. Hilton Will Play

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich is optimistic that wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (hamstring) will play in Week 7 against the Bills after missing the last two games. It's great news for quarterback Andrew Luck, especially since Ryan Grant is out and Marcus Johnson landed on Injured Reserve. However, consider Hilton more of a WR3 […]

Ryan Grant, Jack Doyle, Robert Turbin Ruled Out For Week 7

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Ryan Grant (ankle), tight end Jack Doyle (hip) and running back Robert Turbin (shoulder) have been ruled out for Week 7 against the Bills. The good news is that the Colts could be getting T.Y. Hilton back for this game. Grant and Doyle both belong on the waiver wire in most […]

Dalvin Cook Ruled Out Against Jets

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 7 against the Jets. Cook has become an early-round bust for fantasy owners, as he's played in just three games this year and has 36 carries for 98 yards (2.7 yards per carry). Latavius Murray will once again get most of the […]

Hunter Harvey To Start Throwing Program In December

Baltimore Orioles pitching prospect Hunter Harvey (elbow, forearm) is scheduled to start a throwing program in December. Harvey hasn't been able to stay healthy so far in his young career, but he's still the team's No. 8 prospect and is only 24 years old. The right-hander only pitched in nine games in 2018 and had […]

Isaiah Crowell Gets Questionable Tag

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (foot) is listed as questionable for Week 7 against the Vikings. Head coach Todd Bowles is saying that Crowell will be a game-time decision. In a tough matchup, Crowell is shaping up as a risky RB3/flex. He could see his workload dialed back even if he does play. […]

Terrelle Pryor, Trumaine Johnson Doubtful Against Vikings

New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (groin) and cornerback Trumaine Johnson (quadriceps) are both listed as doubtful to play in Week 7 against the Vikings. With Pryor unlikely to play and Quincy Enunwa out multiple weeks, New York's receiving group is thin. Robby Anderson and Jermaine Kearse should see much bigger roles, and Charone […]

Leonard Fournette, James O'Shaughnessy Out

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) and tight end James O'Shaughnessy (hip) have been ruled out for Week 7 against the Texans. Fournette has become a bust for fantasy owners and has played in just two games this year, running 20 times for 71 yards. It's looking more and more likely that they will […]

Giovani Bernard, Tyler Kroft Out For Week 7

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) and tight end Tyler Kroft (foot) have been ruled out for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs in Week 7. Bernard still isn't ready to return after spraining his knee, but there's a chance he'll be good to go in Week 8 as Joe Mixon's change-of-pace back. Rookie […]

Josh Rosen In Walking Boot

Arizona Cardinals rookie quarterback Josh Rosen (toe) is in a walking boot on Friday and is undergoing an MRI exam on his injured toe after injuring it on the final offensive play in the 45-10 blowout loss to the Broncos on Thursday. Rosen said after the game that his injury wasn't a big deal. It […]

Travis Benjamin, Caleb Sturgis Questionable For London Game

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin (foot) and kicker Caleb Sturgis (quadriceps) are both questionable for the Week 7 game against the Titans in London. Benjamin practiced in full on Friday, so he should return for the first time since Sept. 30. Benjamin only has two catches for three yards in two games and […]

Charlie Morton Wants To Keep Playing

Houston Astros starting pitcher Charlie Morton, who is 34 years old and a pending free agent, said he would like to continue his playing career. The veteran right-hander struggled down the stretch while battling an injury and was touched up in his ALCS start against the Red Sox, but otherwise he was once again fantastic […]

Cardinals Fire Mike McCoy

The Arizona Cardinals fired offensive coordinator Mike McCoy after their 45-10 blowout loss to the Broncos on Thursday night. McCoy has now been fired two straight years in the middle of the season as an offensive coordinator, also being fired by Denver last year. Arizona ranks dead last in the NFL in yards per game […]

Royce Freeman Sprains Ankle Thursday Night

Denver Broncos running back Royce Freeman (ankle) suffered a sprained ankle late in the 45-10 win over the Cardinals on Thursday night and could miss some time. Freeman had 13 carries in the blowout win but only recorded 37 yards (2.8 yards per carry), although he did have his fourth rushing touchdown of the season. […]

Ricky Seals-Jones Says He's Fine

Arizona Cardinals tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (forearm) said he suffered a bruised forearm and not a broken arm in the 45-10 rout at the hands of the Broncos on Thursday night. Seals-Jones caught two of his four targets on the night for only 12 yards in a game in which the Cardinals obviously were able […]

Greg Zuerlein Expected To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay was clear that he expects kicker Greg Zuerlein (groin) to be back in the lineup in Week 7 against the 49ers. Zuerlein has practiced in full each of the last two days, so he should be fine. Legatron has made four of his five field goal tries and […]

Josh Reynolds A Full Participant Thursday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds (wrist) was a full participant in practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday on a short week. Head coach Sean McVay said Reynolds should be fine for Week 7 against the 49ers. Reynolds has caught only three of six targets on the year for 37 yards, but […]

Pierre Garcon Back At Practice Thursday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Pierre Garcon (knee, shoulder) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. The Niners were likely just resting their veteran on Wednesday, so expect him to be fine for Week 7 against the Rams. There just isn't a whole lot of upside to the 32-year-old wideout […]

DaeSean Hamilton Injured Thursday

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver/return man Daesean Hamilton (knee) was injured in the Thursday night game against the Cardinals and was ruled out. Hamilton was injured when a Cardinals defender ran into his lower body while he was calling for a fair catch on a punt. The fourth-round rookie has mainly been a punt returner […]
