Nick Boyle Only Viable If Mark Andrews Is Out

Baltimore Ravens tight end Nick Boyle caught two of three targets for 10 yards and a three-yard touchdown in Week 14's win over the Buffalo Bills. Boyle was able to capitalize on his opportunity to score shortly after Mark Andrews exited the game with a knee injury. If Andrews is unable to go, it's hard […]

Hayden Hurst A Viable Play If Mark Andrews Can't Go

Baltimore Ravens tight end Hayden Hurst caught all three of his targets for a season-high 73 yards and his second touchdown of the season in Week 14's win over the Buffalo Bills. Hurst was able to step up for quarterback Lamar Jackson after Mark Andrews exited the game with a knee injury. If Andrews is […]

Mark Ingram Has Tough Matchup Against Jets

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram rushed to 50 yards on 15 attempts and caught all three of his targets in Week 14's win over the Buffalo Bills. Baltimore matches up against a Jets Defense in Week 15 that has only allowed multiple touchdowns to opposing running backs twice this season. The Jets Defense has also […]

Marvin Bagley Will Come Off The Bench Wednesday

Sacramento Kings forward/center Marvin Bagley (thumb) will play and come off the bench Wednesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Bagley will also have a minutes restriction in his first game back since the season opener. The restriction amount has not been reported, but we expect Bagley to get back to speed sooner rather than […]

Jeff Teague Available To Play Against Jazz

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Utah Jazz. Teague was questionable with an ankle injury, but turns out the injury is more minor than originally believed. Teague has been coming off the bench and hovering between 25-30 minutes. He will likely resume his normal role Wednesday.

Brandon Clarke And Kyle Anderson Available Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies forwards Brandon Clarke (oblique) and Kyle Anderson (heel) are both available to play Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns. Both players were listed as probable so this should come as no surprise. Both Anderson and Clarke will likely resume their normal roles off the bench with no minutes restrictions being reported.

Allen Hurns Misses Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Allen Hurns (ankle, knee) did not take part in practice on Wednesday. All three of Hurns, Devante Parker (concussion) and Albert Wilson (concussion) are in danger of missing the Week 15 contest against the Giants. Hurns has become the No. 2 behind Parker late in the year, but he still has […]

Eddie Rosario Drawing Trade Interest

A number of teams have engaged the Minnesota Twins on outfielder Eddie Rosario in trade talks, but nothing appears to be imminent, according to a source. As the free-agent corner outfield market begins to take shape this winter, Rosario could become an appealing alternative with two years of club control. The 28-year-old had a breakout […]

Dante Pettis Returns To Full Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Dante Pettis (knee) returned to a full practice on Wednesday. It puts the struggling second-year wideout on track to return in Week 15 against the Falcons for the first time since Nov. 11 against the Seahawks. The 24-year-old has just 11 catches for 109 yards and two touchdowns in 11 […]

Josh Jacobs Not A Lock To Play In Week 15

Oakland Raiders head coach Jon Gruden said rookie running back Josh Jacobs (shoulder) isn't a lock to return in Week 15 against the Jaguars despite positive results from his MRI exam. Jacobs's status is unclear for this Sunday, although he was a limited participant in the walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Jacobs must prove to Gruden […]

Brewers Staying In Touch With Eric Thames

Milwaukee Brewers general manager David Stearns said that the team is staying in touch with first baseman Eric Thames, who was non-tendered by the Brewers. Thames was mostly a part-time player for the Brewers -- against right-handed pitchers -- and he was successful to the tune of a .247/.346/.505 slash line, 25 home runs and […]

Franklin Perez Still Not Throwing

Detroit Tigers starting pitching prospect Franklin Perez (shoulder) still hasn't been able to throw a baseball after two-plus years of shoulder issues. The 22-year-old that was the key piece in the trade that sent Justin Verlander to Houston in 2017 has pitched in nine games in his two seasons with Detroit (27 innings). He hasn't […]

Tigers Interested In Robinson Chirinos

The Detroit Tigers are showing interest in catcher Robinson Chirinos, according to a source. With Grayson Greiner and prospect Jake Rogers currently on roster, the Tigers would probably be looking at a short deal with Chirinos until Rogers is ready for the everyday role. Chirinos hit .238/.347/.443 with 17 long balls and 58 RBI in […]

Rangers Could Consider Maikel Franco

The Texas Rangers will consider third baseman Maikel Franco if Anthony Rendon signs elsewhere. Franco would be a significant downgrade from the MVP candidate, but a change of scenery to a very hitter-friendly park in Texas could be the spark that Franco needs to realize his true potential. The 27-year-old Dominican hit just .234/.297/.409 with […]

Salvador Perez Could See Time At First Base

Kansas City Royals manager Mike Matheny said it's a realistic possibility that catcher Salvador Perez (elbow) sees significant playing time at first base in his return from Tommy John surgery in 2020. Perez is coming off a lost season in 2019 after having elbow reconstruction. But he should return to being one of the more […]

Tanner Roark Agrees to Terms With the Blue Jays

The Toronto Blue Jays signed free-agent starting pitcher Tanner Roark to a two-year, $24 million contract on Wednesday. Roark will slide right into the Blue Jays rotation. Toronto has been "in" on several free-agent starters, but Roark is the first they have been able to sign. Roark put up a 4.35 ERA and a 158:51 […]

Cubs Not Working On Extension For Anthony Rizzo

The Chicago Cubs will not be offering first baseman Anthony Rizzo a contract extension this winter, according to Rizzo's agent, Marc Pollack. "Anthony has let his desire to be a Cub for life known to the organization. Although we do not know what the future holds, a deal to make that happen will not be […]

Dodgers Sign Reliever Blake Treinen

The Los Angeles Dodgers signed relief pitcher Blake Treinen to a one-year, $10 million contract on Wednesday. Treinen reportedly had several similar offers and chose to go to the Dodgers. He was exceptional in 2018 before taking a huge step back with the Oakland A's in 2019. The Dodgers are hoping he pitches more like […]

Alexander Mattison Misses Practice Wednesday

Minnesota Vikings rookie running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. There's still a chance that Mattison can play in Week 15 against the Chargers, but nothing is guaranteed. With Dalvin Cook (chest) seeing a full workload against the Lions last Sunday, Mattison would be nothing more than a little-used backup against the […]

NBA DFS Value Plays for FanDuel, DraftKings on 12/11/19

We have 11 games on the agenda in what should be one of the most competitive slates of the week. Tuesday night featured standout performances from the likes of Duncan Robinson, Kendrick Nunn, and Bismack Biyombo, who all crushed their respective values. With an abundance of players in danger of not playing (or have already […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/11/19): NBA DFS Lineups

We are entering the halfway point of the week and I am sure we are all looking forward to the weekend. However, the league has blessed us with an 11-game slate and plenty of basketball to be played Wednesday night. As most big days, the top players are usually always a good pick and will […]

Dodgers Shifting Focus To Madison Bumgarner

The Los Angeles Dodgers are shifting their focus to starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner now that Gerrit Cole chose the Yankees, according to sources. It would be extremely odd to see a lifelong Giants pitcher in blue and white, but it could happen. MadBum isn't the dominant left-hander that he was in his prime with San […]

White Sox Acquire Nomar Mazara

The Chicago White Sox acquired outfielder Nomar Mazara from the Texas Rangers on Tuesday night in exchange for minor league outfielder Steele Walker. The 24-year-old Mazara hit .268 with 19 home runs, 66 RBI and a .786 OPS in 2019. He projects to make around $5.5 million in arbitration and is eligible for free agency […]

Will Fuller Limited In Practice

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller (hamstring) was limited in practice on Wednesday after being inactive in the Week 15 loss to the Broncos. Fuller could be a game-time decision this Sunday against the Titans. If he sits out a second straight game, Kenny Stills and Keke Coutee would have bigger roles alongside top wideout […]

Saints Defense Loses Marcus Davenport, Sheldon Rankins

The New Orleans Saints officially placed defensive end Marcus Davenport (Achilles) and defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins (ankle) on season-ending Injured Reserve on Wednesday. The combination of losing both defensive linemen is a pretty big blow to this Saints Defense to close out the year. Davenport, a first-round pick in 2018, had 31 tackles, six sacks […]

Vance McDonald, Jaylen Samuels Miss Practice

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald (concussion) and running back Jaylen Samuels (groin) both were missing from practice on Wednesday. Not only is McDonald questionable for Week 15 against the Bills on Sunday night, but he hasn't cleared 50 yards the entire season and has only three touchdowns. He has just five catches for 25 […]

Avery Bradley Will Be Limited on Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Avery Bradley (leg) will be limited off the bench during Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will draw another start, while Bradley gets 15 minutes off the bench in this one. The Lakers are going to ease Bradley back into the rotation. He should get around 20-25 minutes once […]

Geronimo Allison, Jimmy Graham Limited In Practice

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Geronimo Allison (knee) and tight end Jimmy Graham (wrist) were limited participants in Wednesday's practice. Graham was limited last week but was able to play against the Redskins, so he should suit up this week barring a setback. Allison, on the other hand, is a new addition to the report […]

David Njoku Limited In Practice Wednesday

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Njoku returned in Week 14 from a wrist injury that landed him on Injured Reserve after Week 2, and he played limited snaps on his way to just one catch for four yards in the win over the Bengals. The 23-year-old should […]
