Trent Taylor Back At Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Trent Taylor (back) was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list and is back at practice. Taylor has breakout potential in an improving offense in the slot.

Mariners Acquiring Cameron Maybin

The Seattle Mariners are acquiring outfielder Cameron Maybin from the Miami Marlins on Tuesday, according to a source. It's unclear what the return was for Miami. Maybin hasn't been great but should represent an upgrade in center field over Guillermo Heredia for Seattle. Maybin was hitting .251 with three home runs, 20 RBI and eight […]

Jordan Wilkins A Sleeper At Running Back

Indianapolis Colts rookie running back Jordan Wilkins could be a sleeper and is in the mix at the position with the Colts embodying the running-back-by-committee mantra under new head coach Frank Reich. Marlon Mack should be penciled in as the early starter, but the top five running backs have all seen some run with the […]

Pirates Won't Be Adding Kevin Gausman

The Pittsburgh Pirates are out on Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kevin Gausman. Even though the Pirates appear out on Gausman, a handful of other teams are very interested, and he is a prime candidate to be on the move by the deadline Tuesday. The right-hander has been very inconsistent for fantasy owners with his 4.43 […]

Mariners Could Land Cameron Maybin

The Miami Marlins appear close to trading outfielder Cameron Maybin, and the Mariners could be his destination. Maybin has been playing much better of late with regular playing time and is hitting .251 on the year with three home runs, 20 RBI and eight steals. With Dee Gordon now at second base, Maybin would theoretically […]

Jordan Matthews Not A Lock For Final Roster

New England Patriots wide receiver Jordan Matthews (hamstring) is projected to miss the cut for the final roster out of training camp. His hamstring injury has kept him out of practices and his injury history puts him behind the eight ball right now. Matthews has an opportunity to be a big part of the offense […]

Charcandrick West Could Be Cut

Kansas City Chiefs running back Charcandrick West could be cut in training camp, in the opinion of the Kansas City Star's Brooke Pryor. With the addition of Damien Williams, West could be the odd man out with Spencer Ware back healthy. West had only 18 rushing attempts for 72 yards and two touchdowns last year […]

Michael Crabtree Has Been Popular Target For Joe Flacco

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Michael Crabtree has been a popular red-zone target for quarterback Joe Flacco during training camp drills. Crabtree was brought in to boost the team's passing game, and it isn't a surprise that he'll be Flacco's No. 1 target, even in the red zone. Despite a down year in 2017, Crabtree still […]

Adam Jones Won't Be Traded

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Adam Jones will not be traded at the deadline on Tuesday. The veteran outfielder may have evoked his full no-trade clause to remain in Baltimore. Even on the worst team in baseball in 2018, Jones has been fantasy relevant with a .285 average, 11 home runs and 44 RBI. He would've been […]

A's, Cubs Pursuing Craig Stammen

The Oakland Athletics are pursuing San Diego Padres relief pitcher Craig Stammen, according to sources. The Cubs have also been in the mix. Stammen has been great for the Friars this year in a setup role, going 4-1 with a 2.58 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 59 strikeouts in 52 1/3 innings. He wouldn't have a […]

Eric Lauer Placed On DL

The San Diego Padres placed rookie left-hander Eric Lauer (forearm) on the 10-day disabled list on Tuesday with a forearm strain. Walker Lockett has been called up from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move. Lauer has potential but has been predictably inconsistent in his rookie year, sporting a 5.30 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 7.8 […]

Three Teams In The Mix For Chris Archer

The Brewers, Braves and Pirates are all strongly in the mix to acquire Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer at the deadline on Tuesday, according to sources. The Dodgers and other teams are lurking, though. Even though Archer hasn't pitched particularly well this year and has been injured, he's attractive to teams because of […]

Raiders Don't Have Offer Out To Khalil Mack

The Oakland Raiders do not have a current offer on the table for defensive end Khalil Mack and there have been no contract talks with his representatives since February, according to sources. It seems likely that Mack will hold out through all of training camp and the preseason at this point. With 40.5 sacks in […]

Amari Cooper Up To 225 Pounds

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper is up to 225 pounds this year, head coach Jon Gruden said on NFL Network. That is 14 pounds heavier than Cooper was at the combine in 2015. “We’re going to move him all over the place. … He is smart, he’s elusive, he can run after the catch. […]

No Timeline For Aaron Rodgers Extension

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst said there is no timeline for the team to reach an extension with quarterback Aaron Rodgers. "As long as everyone is working toward the same goal," Gutekunst said, "we feel positive about it." Rodgers should once again become the highest paid quarterback in the NFL soon, but until […]

Marlins Receive Tommy Eveld In Brad Ziegler Deal

The Miami Marlins acquired 24-year-old right-hander Tommy Eveld from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday in exchange for relief pitcher Brad Ziegler.

Sam Darnold Signs Rookie Deal

New York Jets rookie quarterback Sam Darnold agreed to a four-year, $30.25 million fully guaranteed contract on Monday, according to a source informed of the situation. The deal includes a fifth-year option. He will battle with Josh McCown and Teddy Bridgewater, but Darnold is currently third on the depth chart and has work to do […]

Stefon Diggs Signs Five-Year Extension

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs signed a five-year extension worth $72 million on Tuesday. The deal gives him $81 million max and $40 million in guarantees and a $15 million signing bonus. His $14.4 million base salary puts him among the top 10 for receivers. Diggs is still just 24 years old and runs […]

Andrew McCutchen Not Expected To Be Dealt

San Francisco Giants outfielder Andrew McCutchen is not expected to be traded at the deadline on Tuesday, according to a team official. The Yankees and Phillies have some fleeting interest, but apparently it's not enough to get a deal done by the deadline. The veteran outfielder is batting .258 with 10 home runs, 43 RBI […]

Tigers Shut Down Franklin Perez

Detroit Tigers pitching prospect Franklin Perez (shoulder) has been put on the disabled list with capsular inflammation in his right shoulder and won't pitch again this year. Director of player development David Littlefield said Perez is being shut down as a "precautionary measure to work on stability and strength." Perez was the centerpiece of the […]

Matt Harvey Could Still Be Traded Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Matt Harvey is still a good candidate to be traded at the deadline on Tuesday. The Brewers and Braves have been the most interested in him. Harvey has been better since moving to Cincy, going 5-4 with a 4.44 ERA and 1.19 WHIP, but he's still striking out only 6.9 hitters […]

Diamondbacks Agree To Acquire Brad Ziegler

The Arizona Diamondbacks agreed to acquire relief pitcher Brad Ziegler from the Miami Marlins on Tuesday, pending medical information, according to a source. It's unclear what the D-backs sent the Marlins. Ziegler returns to the desert but will pitch in a setup role. The sidearmer has rebounded from an ugly start to the 2018 season, […]

Jake Diekman A Target Of Phillies

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Jake Diekman is a target of the Philadelphia Phillies as they look to add a left-handed reliever on Tuesday, according to sources. Diekman has a 3.69 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and solid 11.1 K/9 in 39 innings this year. He'd be unlikely to close in Philadelphia, so his limited fantasy value would […]

Red Sox Asking About Tony Watson, Will Smith

The Boston Red Sox have asked about San Francisco Giants relief pitchers Tony Watson and Will Smith, but they are both controllable past this year and the Giants are unsure if they want to sell, according to a source. Both Watson and Smith are left-handed and have been great for San Fran this year. Smith […]

Mets Unlikely To Trade Zack Wheeler

The New York Mets seem unlikely to trade starting pitcher Zack Wheeler at this point. The Mets want a lot for Wheeler, who is under club control for a few more years. The right-hander is 5-6 on the season with a 4.11 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 116 K's over 120 1/3 innings. He has improved […]

Diamondbacks Close To Landing Brad Ziegler

The Arizona Diamondbacks are close to acquiring Miami Marlins relief pitcher Brad Ziegler, according to sources. He'd be making a return to the desert where he spent six years from 2011 to 2016. He even managed a career-high 30 saves for the Snakes back in 2015. Ziegler was terrible to begin the year and lost […]

Padres' Pursuit Of Chris Archer Fading

The San Diego Padres' pursuit of Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer has lost momentum, although things could change on Tuesday up against the trade deadline, according to a source. It always seemed like a long shot for the Padres to actually land Archer. The Rays have been unsure if they want to move […]

Pirates Linked To Chris Archer

The Pittsburgh Pirates were linked to Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer as of late Monday night, according to a source. The Pirates have made a huge push in the wild-card chase and have suddenly turned into buyers at the trade deadline. Archer has been a bit of a disappointment this year, but he's […]

Indians Acquire Leonys Martin

The Cleveland Indians acquired outfielder Leonys Martin from the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday in exchange for shortstop Willi Castro, according to sources. Martin has been a decent leadoff guy for Detroit this year, slashing .251/.321/.409 with nine home runs, 29 RBI and seven stolen bases. He becomes a little more intriguing in deep mixed leagues […]
