Christian Yelich Ready To Go

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich (knee), who missed the final three weeks of the 2019 season with a fractured right kneecap, said that he is ready for the start of spring training. “It’s good,” Yelich said. “Finally, fully healthy, ready to go. Shouldn’t be any limitations this spring. It’s nice to be healthy again.” The […]

Reds The Front-Runners For Nicholas Castellanos

The Cincinnati Reds have emerged as the front-runners to sign outfielder Nicholas Castellanos, according to one source. There are indications that the two sides have made progress on a deal in the last couple of days. The Giants have also negotiated with Castellanos in recent weeks. The 27-year-old would likely continue playing outfield if he […]

Corey Knebel To Get Back On Mound Next Week

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Corey Knebel (elbow) is expected to get back on a mound next week, according to manager Craig Counsell. "The light is at the end of the tunnel for Corey, for sure. You can tell he’s excited about it. We’re not going to see him in spring training pitching for us, but […]

Lorenzo Cain Feeling Right Physically

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain (ankle, knee) said he's finally feeling right again physically after it took until December for his knee and ankle injuries to subside. Cain might receiver another injection for his thumb before the season as a precaution, but he should be healthy entering the 2020 season. The 33-year-old (34 in April) […]

Marlins Sign Matt Joyce

The Miami Marlins signed outfielder Matt Joyce to an undisclosed deal on Sunday. Joyce hit a respectable .295/.408/.450 with seven home runs and 23 RBI, but in just 200 at-bats for the Braves last season. The 35-year-old isn't a bad left-handed bat for the rebuilding Fish, but there's no guarantee that he'll receive meaningful at-bats […]

Kyrie Irving Not With Team Sunday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving (personal) will not play against the New York Knicks on Sunday. Irving was very close with NBA legend Kobe Bryant and most likely left the team to grieve the horrible news we received today surrounding Bryant. With Irving out, Spencer Dinwiddie will most likely reenter the starting lineup and […]

Andrew Cashner An Option For Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles are considering starting pitcher Andrew Cashner as they look for a veteran presence in their rotation this offseason. Cashner made 17 starts for the O's in 2019 before being traded to the Red Sox, where he fell apart in 25 outings (six starts) to close out the season. The veteran right-hander was […]

Corbin Burnes, Freddy Peralta Will Provide Rotation Depth

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said that the plan is to enter spring training treating pitchers Corbin Burnes and Freddy Peralta as starting pitchers as protection for the team's rotation. The hard-throwing Burnes made only four starts in 2019, and he was awful overall with an 8.82 ERA and 1.84 WHIP, although he did fan […]

Ryan Braun Could Consider Retirement After 2020 Season

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder/first baseman Ryan Braun, who is entering the final guaranteed year of his contract, acknowledged that the 2020 season could be the final season of his career. The 36-year-old continues to be an injury risk for fantasy owners, but he has remained productive when on the field, slashing .285/.343/.505 with 22 home runs, […]

Brandon Kintzler Agrees With Marlins

The Miami Marlins agreed to a one-year, $3 million deal with relief pitcher Brandon Kintzler on Saturday, according to a source familiar with the situation. The deal includes a $4 million option for the 2021 season or a $250,000 buyout. The 35-year-old posted an excellent 2.68 ERA and 1.02 WHIP for the Cubs in 2019, […]

Mets Add Eduardo Nunez

The New York Mets signed infielder Eduardo Nunez to a minor league deal on Saturday, according to a source. The 32-year-old will be a non-roster invite to spring training. The 10-year veteran debuted with the Yankees in 2010 and spent the last three seasons with the Red Sox. Nunez has been a key utility player […]

Dustin May To Be Starter In Spring Training

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May said that he will go to spring training as a starter. May has come up through the Dodgers system as a starter all along, so this doesn't come as much of a surprise. The 22-year-old right-hander comes in as the team's No. 2 prospect and No. 32 in […]

Diamondbacks Interested In Brian Dozier

The Arizona Diamondbacks are among the teams with interest in second baseman Brian Dozier. Dozier did manage to slug 20 home runs in his first season with Washington, but he hit just .238/.340/.430 and lost playing time late in the season and the postseason. There's still power here, but Dozier swings and misses way too […]

Jeff McNeil Recovered From Broken Wrist

New York Mets infielder/outfielder Jeff McNeil (wrist) said his wrist is fully recovered after breaking it late last season. McNeil thinks that he will still play multiple positions like he did last year, but he imagines that he will play more third base than anything else in 2020. The 27-year-old (28 in April) hit a […]

Eric Berry Plans To Return In 2020

Former Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry, who did not play at all in 2019, plans to play in 2020 after intentionally taking the season off to rest his body and mind. Berry was cut by the Chiefs in 2018 and has only played in three games since 2016 due to injuries and a bout […]

C.J. Mosley On Track For Spring Football

New York Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley (groin), who is six weeks removed from groin/abdominal surgery, said he is jogging "a little bit" and is on track to take part in "spring football." Mosley has also started a vegan diet after playing in just two games last season because of his injury in his first year […]

Will Fuller Has Hernia Surgery

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hernia) underwent sports hernia surgery recently to fix a lingering groin injury that he suffered during the season, according to league sources not authorized to speak publicly. The 25-year-old aggravated the injury in the Divisional loss to the Chiefs. Fuller missed five games with a chronic hamstring injury in […]

Drew Brees Still Deciding NFL Future

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, who will become a free agent in March, said he is still waiting to decide if he will play a 20th season in the NFL. "Then, I'll kind of lay low for a little bit, get away and then assess. I kind of have a process in mind. And […]

Svi Mykhailiuk (SG, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS: Talk about a walking bucket. Who would have thought? The Pistons are on the verge of a full rebuilding effort and Svi might be one of the key pieces going forward. At least that is what he's showing these days at just 22 […]

Reggie Jackson (PG/SG, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 35% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's about damn time. Finally, after three months off basketball courts, Reggie Jackson made it back to one. It happened on Jan. 22 and Jackson seemed to not have lost any single bit of his hoops knowledge. On just 19 minutes of playing […]

Daniel Theis (PF/C, BOS): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: Remember when Joel Anthony was the unsuspected starting center of The Heatles back in the day? Well, that is Daniel Theis, only in Boston and much better. Theis has started in all games he's played except one (the first of the season), and […]

Marquese Chriss (PF/C, GSW): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of leagues ANALYSIS: After three seasons and a half in the league, it is fair to say Marquese Chriss has been a bust. He is a former 8th-overall draftee but he has far from lived up to the expectations, though the current version of Chriss is […]

Trevor Ariza (SG/SF, POR): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: Had I to tell, I'd say that Trevor Ariza's ownership will only go up and up during the next few days and weeks. Portland traded for the veteran just a few days ago and in his lone game with the franchise up to […]

Markieff Morris (PF/C, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of leagues ANALYSIS: Welcome to the ultimate what-if entry of this week's NBA waiver wire pickups! You might think we're a little bit crazy offering you advice on why you should pick Morris. It is not that Morris has been that bad, in fact, he's a valuable player considering […]
