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).

Articles

Tyler Skaggs Penciled In To Start Thursday

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Tyler Skaggs (groin) is "penciled in" to come off the disabled list and start Thursday against the Mariners, according to manager Mike Scioscia. Skaggs has been great for the Halos this year, going 6-5 with a sparkling 2.64 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and career-high 9.8 K/9. He'll be facing a difficult […]


No Structural Damage For Jarrod Dyson

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Jarrod Dyson (groin) doesn't have any structural damage in his groin and is dealing with the breakup of scar tissue from his 2017 hernia surgery, according to manager Torey Lovullo. Dyson will remain shut down during the All-Star break next week. A groin injury for a player that relies on speed is […]


Yankees Have Made Strong Offer For Manny Machado

The New York Yankees have made a strong offer for Orioles shortstop Manny Machado, according to sources. It's unknown if the Yanks are the favorites for Machado, however. Machado is the big trade piece available at this year's deadline, and he won't come cheap, even for a potential rental. He's hitting a robust .314/.385/.574 with […]


Yoenis Cespedes Willing To Play First Base

New York Mets outfielder Yoenis Cespedes brought up the idea of him playing some first base, according to a source familiar with the issue. As he rehabs from multiple injuries, Cespedes is taking fly balls in left field and ground balls at first base. He played some first base in Cuba and takes grounders there […]


Bilal Powell Must Fight For Playing Time

New York Jets running back Bilal Powell enters this season behind Isaiah Crowell in the lead-back role, and the New York Post's Brian Costello expects Powell's production to drop dramatically as a result. Powell was behind starter Matt Forte last year but ended up leading the team in carries (178), rushing yards (722) and rushing […]


Andrew Cashner Placed On DL

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Andrew Cashner (neck) has been placed on the 10-day disabled list with a neck strain. The team recalled pitcher Yefry Ramirez from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move. Cashner recently received an injection in his neck and he'll rest over the All-Star break before likely returning to start the second half. […]


Homer Bailey Will Return To Starting Role

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Homer Bailey (knee) will continue his rehab assignment as a starting pitcher and will return to the team's rotation in Cincinnati when he's ready, according to general manager Nick Krall. It's a bit of a head scratcher, as Bailey hasn't been very effective when he has started for the Reds this […]


Addison Reed Dealing With Elbow Impingement

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Addison Reed's (elbow) MRI exam showed an elbow impingement, according to manager Paul Molitor. Reed's poor results in 2018 may be attributed to his elbow injury, but it's hard to say. He hasn't panned out as a potential closer for the Twins, and incumbent closer Fernando Rodney has been good enough […]


Mike Soroka Hasn't Resumed Throwing

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Mike Soroka (shoulder) has yet to resume throwing since landing on the disabled list. Soroka is already on the 60-day disabled list, so he may not return to Atlanta until late August. The right-hander was decent in his five starts, posting a 3.51 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 7.4 K/9, but he […]


Carlos Correa To Swing A Bat Wednesday

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (back) is on track to swing a bat Wednesday and he also did the most since going on the disabled list on Wednesday. He could go on a rehab assignment this weekend. The star shortstop should be ready to go to start the second half of the season, barring any […]


Ken Giles Sent To Minors

The Houston Astros optioned relief pitcher Ken Giles to Triple-A Fresno on Wednesday after his ninth-inning meltdown Tuesday that led to a loss. It will be his first time in Triple-A since before he made his major league debut with the Phillies in June of 2014. Giles has fallen on hard times ever since the […]


Yoenis Cespedes Could Begin Rehab Games Next Week

New York Mets general manager John Ricco said that the team hopes outfielder Yoenis Cespedes (hip, quadriceps) can play in minor league games during the All-Star break next week. That means that Cespedes could be back with the team shortly after the break, assuming he doesn't have any setbacks. He's been out since May and […]


T.J. Yeldon The Backup In Jacksonville

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon, who is the team's best blocker and receiver, is firmly behind Leonard Fournette in the pecking order. He's in the final year of his rookie contract as the clear-cut No. 2 back ahead of Corey Grant. Yeldon is merely a fantasy handcuff for Fournette owners, but he could also […]


Andrew Cashner Receives Injection In Neck

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Andrew Cashner (neck) received an injection for neck spasms and may not pitch again before the All-Star break next week. It's not the first time he's had such an injection in the past. The veteran right-hander is sporting a 4.56 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and a mediocre 7.2 K/9 in 18 starts […]


Nate Jones Throwing Off Mound

Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Nate Jones (arm) is throwing off a mound on Wednesday. There remains no timetable for Jones' return, however. He had a 2.55 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and a 9.9 K/9 in 24 2/3 innings with four saves before his injury. Joakim Soria has pitched well in the ninth inning in Jones' […]


Jason Vargas To Make Another Rehab Start Saturday

New York Mets starting pitcher Jason Vargas (calf) will make another rehab start for Single-A Brooklyn on Saturday. It should be the veteran southpaw's final rehab start before rejoining the rotation after the All-Star break. He's been atrocious for the Mets this year, though, going 2-6 with an 8.60 ERA, 1.83 ERA and 32 strikeouts […]


Shane Greene To Come Off DL Friday

Detroit Tigers closer Shane Greene (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list on Friday. Greene missed minimal time on the DL and should immediately return to the ninth-inning role, which means Joe Jimenez will go back to a setup role. Greene has posted a 4.03 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 9.9 K/9 for Detroit this […]


Andrew Miller Throws Off Mound

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher Andrew Miller (knee) threw off a mound Wednesday. He could be on track to rejoin Cleveland right after the All-Star break. The dominant lefty hasn't been himself in 2018, posting a 4.40 ERA and 1.61 WHIP, but he does have a nasty 14.4 K/9 and remains relevant in holds leagues for […]


Adam Haseley Promoted To Double-A

Philadelphia Phillies former first-round outfielder Adam Haseley has been promoted from the advanced Florida State League in High A to Double-A Reading after hitting .300/.343/.415 with five home runs, five triples, 13 doubles, 54 runs scored, 38 RBI and seven stolen bases in his first full season in the minors. He is the team's third-ranked […]


Orioles Want Justus Sheffield From Yanks In Manny Machado Deal

The Baltimore Orioles are willing to trade shortstop Manny Machado to the Yankees if pitching prospect Justus Sheffield is included in the deal, according to a source. However, the Yankees may not want to move Sheffield for a rental player, even one of Machado's caliber. Sheffield is ranked as the 39th overall prospect in baseball […]


Ryan Zimmerman To Begin Rehab Assignment Monday

Washington Nationals first baseman Ryan Zimmerman (oblique) is scheduled to start a minor league rehab assignment on Monday, according to manager Dave Martinez. After a surprising rebound year in 2017, Zimmerman has been a dud in 2018, hitting .217 with five home runs and 16 RBI in just 33 games. He still has some power […]


Stephen Strasburg To Make Another Rehab Start Sunday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (shoulder) will meet the team in New York and will throw a bullpen session Thursday before making another minor league rehab start on Sunday, according to manager Dave Martinez. If all goes well Sunday, Strasburg will likely be cleared to rejoin the rotation following the All-Star break. He's a […]


Shane Greene Making Great Progress

Detroit Tigers closer Shane Greene (shoulder) has thrown each of the last three days and is scheduled to come off the 10-day disabled list on Friday against the Astros. It remains to be seen if the Tigers will actually activate Greene this weekend or wait until after the All-Star break, but he should be ready […]


Eli Manning Encouraged By Odell Beckham Jr.'s Progress

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is excited to have wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) back healthy this year, and Manning thinks his star wideout is in for a big season. "Odell looked healthy," Manning said, via ESPN's Jordan Raanan. "He was running routes full speed, making cuts and seemed to be his old […]


Cam Newton In Make-Or-Break Year?

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton could be on the hot seat in 2018 after two straight down seasons, in the opinion of ESPN.com's David Newton. Newton has a lot of expectations in 2018 with new offensive coordinator Norv Turner in town. It'd be a huge shock if Carolina looked to move on from Newton after […]


Addison Reed Placed On DL

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Addison Reed (tricep) was placed on the 10-day disabled list Wednesday with tightness in his right triceps. Alan Busenitz was recalled from Triple-A Rochester in a corresponding move. It's been a nightmare of a year for Reed as the eighth-inning setup man to Fernando Rodney, as he's 1-5 with a 4.83 […]


Chad Kuhl Shut Down For Four More Weeks

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Chad Kuhl (forearm) will be shut down for at least four more weeks, according to head athletic trainer Todd Tomczyk. It's bad news for the right-hander, as he may not be back until much later this season. He wasn't all that useful to fantasy owners, though, with his 4.55 ERA, 1.44 […]


Ian Kennedy Heads Back To DL

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Ian Kennedy (oblique) has been placed back on the 10-day disabled list with an oblique injury on Wednesday after leaving his start early on Tuesday. He lasted just three innings against the Twins and had missed just one start after a strained left oblique in late June. Kennedy said the […]


Garrett Richards Dealing With Foreram Irritation

Updating a previous item, Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Garrett Richards (forearm) left his start early on Tuesday against the Mariners with right forearm irritation, and he will undergo an MRI exam Wednesday. This could be an ulnar collateral ligament issue, which could lead to Tommy John surgery and end Richard's season. He's arguably LA's […]


Garrett Richards Injured Tuesday

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Garrett Richards left his start early Tuesday with an undisclosed injury. His last two pitches were clocked at 92 mph after his fastball had been at 95-96 mph earlier in the game. Richards made it just 2 2/3 innings, allowing four hits (one homer) and three runs while walking none […]
