Zack Britton Should Be Full-Go For Spring Training

Free-agent left-handed reliever Zack Britton (elbow) has started his normal offseason throwing program and should be full-go in spring training. Britton recovered from Tommy John surgery in time to pitch in three games for the New York Yankees to close out the regular season, but he was shut down before the playoffs with shoulder fatigue. […]

White Sox Looking To Trade For Salvador Perez?

Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez is close with new Chicago White Sox manager Pedro Grifol, his former catching instructor and bench coach with the Royals. They are so close, it stands to reason that the White Sox might think about asking for Perez in a trade. The 32-year-old regressed offensively from his 48-home run, […]

Padres In the Market For Trea Turner?

The San Diego Padres have plenty of offseason needs -- first base, a starting pitcher, bullpen, bench -- but major-league sources continue to suggest that they are indeed in the shortstop market, possibly even for Trea Turner. General manager A.J. Preller traded Turner to the Washington Nationals as a player to be named in 2015 […]

Giants, Mariners Interested In Kolten Wong

The San Francisco Giants and Seattle Mariners are among the teams interested in trading for Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Kolten Wong, who will earn $10 million in 2023, according to sources. The Los Angeles Dodgers also like Wong. The Brewers have already traded outfielder Hunter Renfroe and parted with relievers Brad Boxberger and Brent Suter […]

Bryan Reynolds Unlikely To Be Dealt

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds' value has only risen this offseason and the center-field market is thin, but it remains unlikely that he'll be traded this offseason. However, the Pirates will listen to offers and are said to be "open-minded," but the timing is off. Reynolds would be a lot more attractive to fantasy managers […]

Astros, Cardinals Top Landing Spots For Willson Contreras

Free-agent catcher Willson Contreras' most likely landing spots are the Houston Astros and the St. Louis Cardinals. The Miami Marlins have also checked in on him, but Contreras will be pricey as the top available catcher this offseason. Christian Vazquez may be Plan B for the Cardinals, and he, too, has a nice market this […]

Astros, Justin Verlander Remain Far Apart

The Houston Astros and free-agent starting pitcher Justin Verlander are "far apart" in talks, according to sources. Verlander is seeking $130 million for three years after winning the 2022 American League Cy Young, and the Astros seem pessimistic on Verlander, which may open the door for teams like the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Mets […]

Diamondbacks Agree With Miguel Castro

The Arizona Diamondbacks and free-agent reliever Miguel Castro agreed to a one-year, $3.5 million deal on Friday, according to a source familiar with the situation. Castro went 5-0 with the New York Yankees in 2022, posting a 4.03 ERA (3.84 FIP), a 1.45 WHIP and 31 strikeouts in 29 innings over 34 relief appearances in […]

Broncos Defense A Shaky Streaming Option In Week 13

The Denver Broncos defense has a tough task ahead of them on the road in Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens and dual-threat quarterback Lamar Jackson on Sunday. The Ravens offense is putting up 25.0 points per game this year and have been one of the worst matchups for opposing fantasy defenses in 2022. Denver's […]

Brandon McManus Off The Fantasy Radar

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus shouldn't be in anyone's starting fantasy lineups for a Week 13 date with the Baltimore Ravens on the road. He kicks for the lowest-scoring offense in the league for a Denver unit that is averaging 14.3 points per game. McManus is tied for 20th at his position in overall fantasy […]

Greg Dulcich Trying To Put An End To His Slump

Denver Broncos rookie tight end Greg Dulcich is in a slump over his last three games, catching seven passes on 12 targets for 52 scoreless yards. It comes after he had 12 receptions for 182 yards and a touchdown in the first three games of his NFL career from Weeks 6 through 8. The good […]

Kendall Hinton Should Continue In No. 2 Role

Denver Broncos wide receiver Kendall Hinton appears set to continue his recent role as the No. 2 behind Courtland Sutton in Week 13 on the road against the Baltimore Ravens with Jerry Jeudy (ankle) yet to practice this week. In the last three games with Jeudy injured (Jeudy left early in Week 10), Hinton has […]

Courtland Sutton A WR3 In Week 13 Against Baltimore

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton leads the team with 52 receptions on 88 targets for 688 yards, but he's scored just one time in 11 games in the NFL's lowest-scoring offense. With Jerry Jeudy (ankle) trending towards missing his third straight game this Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens, Sutton should once again lead the […]

Latavius Murray Faces A Tough Matchup Against Ravens

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray is the team's unquestioned lead back with Melvin Gordon III out of town and Chase Edmonds (ankle) on Injured Reserve, but he'll face a tough matchup on Sunday on the road against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens defense has allowed the second-fewest rushing yards per game (82) and have […]

Not Much Hope For Russell Wilson In Week 13

Fantasy managers, even those in leagues that start two quarterbacks, may want to consider benching Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson in Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens on the road. Wilson's extremely disappointing first season in Denver continued in last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers when he threw for just 142 yards and one […]

Arik Armstead Plans To Play In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Arik Armstead (ankle, foot), who hasn't played since Week 4, told reporters on Thursday that he plans to play in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. In his three games played in 2022, Armstead has five tackles (four solo) and a tackle for loss. The 29-year-old defensive tackle […]

Jarvis Landry, Mark Ingram II Limited Thursday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jarvis Landry (ankle) and running back Mark Ingram II (foot) were both limited in the team's first practice of the week on Thursday. The Saints are likely just taking it easy on both veteran players early in the practice week, so barring any setbacks, they should both be active on […]

Juwan Johnson Misses Practice Thursday

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (ankle) was unable to get on the practice field on Thursday. Johnson played a season-low 47 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 12 loss to the San Francisco 49ers and he failed to catch either of his two targets after a stretch of three straight games […]

Richie James, Daniel Bellinger Limited Thursday

New York Giants wide receiver Richie James (knee) and rookie tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) were both listed as limited participants in practice on Thursday. The Giants didn't actually practice on Thursday, so the designations were estimations. James picked up a DNP on Wednesday, so he's making progress and should be able to play in […]

Darius Slayton Misses Practice Thursday

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (illness) was added to this week's injury report on Thursday when he missed practice due to an illness. There's still a good chance that Slayton will be able to play in Week 13 against the Washington Commanders, but it's something fantasy managers will want to keep an eye […]

Treylon Burks Out Sick Thursday

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks (illness) popped up on the injury report on Thursday when he missed practice due to an illness. Burks will most likely play in Week 13 against the Philadelphia Eagles, but it's worth keeping an eye on his status leading up to Sunday's game. The 22-year-old rookie has missed […]

David Njoku In Danger Of Missing Week 13

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) missed his second straight day of practice this week on Thursday. On top of it, Njoku is also dealing with a new knee injury than the one that caused him to miss several games earlier this season. He could still return to practice on Friday and have a […]

Zach Eflin Agrees With The Rays

The Tampa Bay Rays agreed to a three-year, $40 million deal with free-agent right-hander Zach Eflin on Thursday. Eflin became a free agent this winter when he declined a $15 million mutual option to remain with the Philadelphia Phillies in 2023. Although he served as a bullpen piece for the Phillies in the postseason, Eflin […]

Travis Etienne Jr., Zay Jones Limited Again Thursday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (foot) and wide receiver Zay Jones (chest) were both limited in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Etienne suffered a minor left foot sprain last week, and the Jaguars admitted that they held him out of the rest of the Week 12 game as a precaution. […]

Jerry Jeudy Not Present For Thursday's Practice

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (ankle) was not practicing on Thursday. Jeudy has yet to practice this week and is trending towards missing his third straight game with an ankle injury in Week 13 when the team takes on the Baltimore Ravens on the road. The 23-year-old last suited up in the Week 10 […]

Deebo Samuel Not Seen At Practice Thursday

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (quadriceps) wasn't seen at practice on Thursday in the portion open to the media. Samuel was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday, so perhaps the Niners are just giving him a veteran's day of rest ahead of their big Week 13 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The […]

Lamar Jackson Puts In Full Practice Thursday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (quadriceps) was officially a full participant in practice on Thursday. Jackson was unable to finish Wednesday's practice due to a quadriceps injury, but it's a great sign that he didn't have any restrictions a day later. The 25-year-old dual-threat signal-caller shouldn't have any problems playing this Sunday against the Denver […]

Josh Jacobs, Brandon Bolden Limited Thursday

Las Vegas Raiders running backs Josh Jacobs (calf) and Brandon Bolden (calf) were both limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day. The Raiders were hoping Jacobs would be available to play in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Chargers after he aggravated his left calf injury in Week 12, and all signs […]

Kaiir Elam A Healthy Scratch Thursday Night

With Buffalo Bills starting cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) expected to play a bit more in his second game of the season on Thursday night against the New England Patriots, first-round rookie cornerback Kaiir Elam is a healthy scratch. White, a two-time Pro Bowler, played just 16 defensive snaps in the Thanksgiving Day win over the […]

Mike Brosseau Avoids Arbitration With Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers and infielder Mike Brosseau avoided salary arbitration on Thursday by agreeing to an undisclosed one-year deal. In his first year with Milwaukee in 2022, Brosseau hit .255/.344/.418 with a career-high-tying six home runs, 23 RBI, 15 runs scored and two stolen bases in 160 plate appearances over 69 games. The 28-year-old can […]
