Patrick Mahomes Frequently Throwing Interceptions

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw three interceptions in training camp practice on Wednesday and has seven picks in six practices so far. "He had a few hiccups today," offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy said. "But that's a part of the process. When you're young you need those hiccups because they become valuable lessons. ... […]

Packers Making Progress With Aaron Rodgers

The Green Bay Packers are making measurable progress with quarterback Aaron Rodgers on a contract extension over the last few days. Rodgers should become the league's highest paid quarterback before the start of the regular season. He played in just seven games due to injury in 2017 but is at full health and should be […]

Blake Snell Throws Successful Bullpen

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Blake Snell (shoulder) threw a successful bullpen session on Wednesday. Snell probably won't return before next weekend, but he should remain stashed in all fantasy formats. He has broke out this year and was named to his first All-Star team. Before his injury he was 12-5 with a 2.27 ERA, […]

Hunter Wood To Start Thursday

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Hunter Wood will start on Thursday against the Angels, with reliever Jalen Beeks following him. The Rays will go with another bullpen game. Wood has a 3.38 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 10.1 K/9 in 11 games (three starts), but he won't go deep enough in this game to be a fantasy […]

Xander Bogaerts Unlikely To Return Thursday

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts (wrist) is unlikely to return to the lineup Thursday, but a baseball source said he's just dealing with soreness in his wrist. The feeling on Wednesday was that Bogaerts would only need to miss a day or two after being hit by a pitch. He could very well return […]

Yankees Calling Up Luke Voit, Luis Cessa

The New York Yankees will call up first baseman Luke Voit and pitcher Luis Cessa, according to a source. Cessa may be taking the roster spot of starting pitcher J.A. Happ (illness), who has come down with hand, foot and mouth disease. He has a 3.10 ERA on the year and could make a spot […]

Robinson Cano Working At First And Third Base

Seattle Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano has been working out at first and third base in the Dominican Republic. With Dee Gordon entrenched at second base, Cano will have to find playing time elsewhere when he returns from his 80-game suspension. He's eligible to return on Aug. 14. The most likely scenario would see Cano […]

James Kaprielian Throwing Off Mound

Oakland Athletics pitching prospect James Kaprielian (shoulder) has been throwing off a mound after being shut down for most of the summer after shoulder issues in his return from Tommy John surgery. The 24-year-old right-hander hasn't pitched in a minor league game since 2016, so he has a ways to go. He's ranked as the […]

Andrew Triggs Resumes Throwing Tuesday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Andrew Triggs (arm) resumed throwing on Tuesday after being shut down for more than a month. He has been out with nerve irritation in his right arm since Triggs hasn't pitched in a game since May 17 and isn't close to a return. He had a 5.23 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and […]

Chad Pinder Taking Grounders

Oakland Athletics infielder Chad Pinder (elbow), who suffered a lacerated elbow in a car accident on Saturday, is taking ground balls and will resume swinging soon, according to manager Bob Melvin. Pinder is mostly a utility player for the A's and has very little fantasy value when he's playing. He's hit .259 with 10 home […]

Dustin Fowler Optioned, Ramon Laureano To Be Called Up

The Oakland Athletics optioned outfielder Dustin Fowler to the minors on Wednesday to get regular at-bats. In a corresponding move, the A's are expected to call up outfield prospect Ramon Laureano. He was acquired from the Astros last year and has hit .512 with four home runs in the last 10 days on the farm. […]

Brent Suter Undergoes Tommy John Surgery

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brent Suter (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery on Tuesday in Cincinnati. He will be out for the rest of this year and could miss most, if not all, of 2019. Suter started out the year as a nice surprise but eventually faded before he landed on the disabled list. The lefty […]

Greg Holland Released

The St. Louis Cardinals released relief pitcher Greg Holland on Wednesday after they were unable to find a trade partner for him. The team designated Holland for assignment earlier this week after he posted an atrocious 7.92 ERA, 2.24 WHIP and 22 strikeouts in 25 innings for the Red Birds this year. He's likely to […]

Kolten Wong To Play In Rehab Game Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong (knee) will play a rehab game with Single-A Peoria on Thursday and will play second base. He went on the disabled list with inflammation in his left knee on July 23. Wong is really only useful in NL-only leagues with his .216 average to go along with seven […]

Kevin Gausman To Start Saturday

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kevin Gausman, who was acquired from the Orioles on Tuesday, will make his debut with the team on Saturday against the Mets. He was originally schedule to start on Friday, but a rainout on Wednesday pushed everyone back in the rotation. While Gausman has been hit or miss this year with […]

Ross Stripling To Return Against Rockies

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Ross Stripling (toe) said he will be activated from the disabled list in time to start Aug. 9 or 10 at the Rockies. Stripling has been great overall for the Blue this year with an ERA under 3.00, but he allowed nine earned runs in just 8 2/3 innings in […]

Dodgers To Activate Justin Turner On Thursday

The Los Angeles Dodgers plan to activate third baseman Justin Turner (groin) from the disabled list on Thursday. Turner will return to an underwhelming .259/.354/.398 line with five home runs and 20 RBI in a disappointing 2018 season. He just has never really been healthy this year, so he could pick things up in the […]

Johnny Cueto To Have Tommy John Surgery

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Johnny Cueto (elbow) will have Tommy John surgery in Los Angeles on Thursday, which will end his season. It could also keep the veteran righty out for all of next year, so it's a big blow for the Giants. His season started off so great for his fantasy owners, but […]

Blake Jarwin Impressing In Training Camp

DallasCowboys.com's Bryan Broaddus thinks Dallas Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin has been the team's most impressive tight end so far in training camp. With Jason Witten retired and Dez Bryant a free agent, the Cowboys have a lot of targets up for grabs this year. Geoff Swaim is more of a blocker, so Jarwin may […]

Tyler Saladino The Odd Man Out

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Tyler Saladino was optioned to Triple-A on Wednesday to make room for second baseman Jonathan Schoop, who was acquired from the Orioles on Tuesday. Saladino was hitting .259 with four home runs and 15 RBI on the season for the Brewers, but the team's infield is much too crowded now after the […]

DJ LeMahieu Likely To Return Thursday

Colorado Rockies second baseman DJ LeMahieu (oblique) hit off relief pitcher Chris Rusin on Wednesday and felt great. He's likely to come off the disabled list on Thursday and start at second base. LeMahieu should be returned to all starting lineups if he indeed comes back on Thursday. He was hitting .278 with eight home […]

Kolten Wong Not Expected To Return Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Kolten Wong (knee) isn't expected to return from the disabled list on Thursday, according to manager Mike Shildt. Wong did some running and sliding in pre-game drills on Wednesday, so he could return at some point this weekend. He went on the disabled list on July 22. Wong is mostly […]

Kevin Gausman Expected To Make Debut Friday

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kevin Gausman, who was acquired from the Orioles on Tuesday, will join the team in New York on Thursday and is expected to make his debut with the team on Friday against the Mets, according to manager Brian Snitker. Gausman has been a headache to own in fantasy with his 5-8 […]

Sonny Gray Could Be Bumped From Rotation

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone isn't ruling out removing starting pitcher Sonny Gray from the rotation. Gray allowed eight hits and seven earned runs in just 2 2/3 innings against the lowly Orioles on Wednesday to raise his ERA for the year to 5.56. A career-high 3.92 BB/9 isn't helping his cause. It's an […]

Jordan Matthews Still With Patriots

New England Patriots wide receiver Jordan Matthews (hamstring) was placed on Injured Reserve on Wednesday and wasn't released, as was reported earlier, according to a source. He could negotiate an injury settlement and eventually be released by the team. Either way, Matthews won't be in the team's plans this year, which is a shame for […]

Shohei Ohtani Out Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Shohei Ohtani is not in the starting lineup against a right-hander on Wednesday. The Angels are giving him a breather after he's hit just .203 with three home runs and five RBI in 22 games in July. Perhaps his injured elbow is bothering him a bit swinging the stick, too. […]

Cedrick Wilson Placed On IR

The Dallas Cowboys placed wide receiver Cedrick Wilson (shoulder) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday. In other news, defensive end Randy Gregory passes his physical his physical, which makes him eligible to practice. Wilson was taken in the sixth round of this year's draft, so he'll miss what would've been his rookie season. He probably wasn't […]

Terrelle Pryor Doing Team Drills Wednesday

New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (ankle) is taking part in team drills on Wednesday for the first time at training camp, and he looks to be a full participant. It's good news for Pryor, who couldn't afford to fall any further behind as he battles for playing time in a crowded receiver room. […]

Eric Skoglund, Jesse Hahn Moving Rehab To Triple-A

Kansas City Royals starting pitchers Eric Skoglund (shoulder) and Jesse Hahn (elbow) have both had their rehab assignments moved to Triple-A Omaha. Both pitchers could return in the next week or two but would be very weak streaming options limited to AL-only leagues if they're in the starting rotation. Skoglund has a 6.70 ERA, 1.39 […]

Jose Altuve To Test Knee On Friday

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (knee) is expected to test his right knee on Friday at Dodgers Stadium, which will include some running and hitting. Altuve should be able to rejoin the team sometime next week, although he's eligible to come off the disabled list this Sunday. The 28-year-old is hitting a sparkling .329 […]
