Astros Promote Top Prospect Kyle Tucker

The Houston Astros have called up outfielder Kyle Tucker from Triple-A. Tucker has been one of the top prospects in all of baseball the past two years. He appeared in 28 games for the Astros last year, but has spent the entirety of 2019 at Triple-A until now. Tucker has slashed .266/.354/.555 with 34 home […]

Los Angeles Chargers general manager Tom Telesco told the media on Sunday that the team will not discuss a contract extension with running back Melvin Gordon during the season.

Andy Dalton - 2019 Fantasy Football Sleeper

Andy Dalton is coming off of his worst statistical year in the NFL in which he threw for 2,566 yards in just eleven games thanks in large part to a thumb injury during a week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns...Or, at least that is what some of the narratives read. In reality, Andy Dalton […]

Go bold or finish in last place in your fantasy football league. That’s what I always say. The crystal ball has been dusted off, the tarot cards have been shuffled and the spirits of fantasy football seasons past have been summoned to clue me in on what’s in store for the 2019 NFL campaign. There […]

Observations From My First FFPC Draft

I've always considered myself to be really good at the waiver wire, which is part of the reason why I've avoided doing any Best Ball leagues until this year unless you count the three-person one I did for fun last year with my wife and one of our friends. But if you want to evolve […]

MLB DFS Prop Picks for 9/2/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

The final month of the baseball season offers interesting angles for prop players. Some games remain critically important for the teams involved as they jockey for playoff position. For others, the final month is about players auditioning for next season and that can present opportunities for pitchers that have not been big-name performers during the […]

Best Late-Round Tight End Picks If You're Punting the Position

Perhaps more than any other time in recent history, punting the tight end position in the draft seems like an optimal strategy. While it's never good to lock yourself into a strategy before your draft even starts, the obscene amount of buried treasure waiting to be scooped up in the later rounds makes the idea […]

Brandon Workman Notches 10th Save

Boston Red Sox reliever Brandon Workman struck out one and didn't allow a base runner en route to his 10th save in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Angels. 2019 has been a busy one for the 31-year-old as he's pitched in 62 games so far, 19 more than in the 2018 season. However, his new […]

David Price Goes Two Innings In Return

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher David Price allowed one hit over two innings, while striking out two and walking one in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Angels. It was Price's first start since August 4 after missing a month due to a cyst on his left wrist. The Southpaw didn't make any rehab starts so […]

Stop That Hype Train! Darrell Henderson

Rookie running back Darrell Henderson was a force to be reckoned with during his career at Memphis. He holds the NCAA Division I record for yards per rush with 8.2. You could argue that he's literally the most dangerous ball-carrier in NCAA history and the numbers back it up. It wasn't like he was doing this in […]

Xander Bogaerts Hits 31st Home Run

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with a home run and three runs batted in during Sunday's 4-3 win over the Angels. Bogaerts really started to heat up at the end of August, so this was a great start to September. He's now either tied or set a career-high in every major hitting […]

Now, it's time to continue by looking at the rest of the most fantasy-relevant wide receivers on draft day. Listed below are my rankings and projections for the 2019 season, which will hopefully help you find some clarification if you are having […]

Steelers Defense In A Tough Spot To Open Season

The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense squares off with the New England Patriots on the road to open up the 2019 season. The Steelers are a bit underrated heading into the season, mainly because of this Week 1 Matchup. TJ Watt and Cam Heyward will look to continue their dominance from a season ago. Along with Bud […]

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 23

Somehow, it's already September. If you're still in the championship hunt, congratulations on navigating the first five months of the long grind that is the fantasy baseball season.

Larry Fitzgerald (WR, ARI) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~80 Overall Current ADP: ~100 The hype surrounding Kyler Murray is real. Everybody is buying into Arizona's fast-paced and bombing offense under Kliff Kingsbury. Oh, and Larry Fitzgerald will keep burning defenses as he has been doing for the last gazillion years. Some things never change. Who are we trying to lie by […]

Marvin Jones (WR, DET) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~85 Overall Current ADP: ~95 Marvin Jones ranks 26th in the last three-year span among receivers in PPR points, but last year he could only finish WR46. That's enough reason for most owners out there to fade him in drafts. Of a potential total of 48 games since the start of […]

Robby Anderson (WR, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~60 Overall Current ADP: ~70 One year ago, Robby Anderson was being selected at the onset of Round 8. His ADP was the byproduct of optimism that he could perpetuate his late-season momentum from 2017 when he averaged 98 yards-per-game (Weeks 8-13) and accumulated 941 yards. But Anderson failed to build upon that […]

Dede Westbrook (WR, JAC) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~70 Overall Current ADP: ~80 Dede Westbrook has not engendered the level of attention that other trendy targets such as D.J. Moore, Curtis Samuel, and Chris Godwin have captured in recent months. However, the third-year receiver's desirable blend of speed, acceleration, and dependable hands should be utilized more effectively than at any other […]

Curtis Samuel (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~85 Overall Current ADP: ~100 Curtis Samuel has been the subject of a surging stream of expectations during recent weeks. The topics have included his improved route-running, his favorable foot speed, and his unchallenged explosiveness. The enthusiasm escalated after his training camp performances, as he demonstrated his ability to blaze beyond defenders […]

Browns Claim Ricky Seals-Jones

The Cleveland Browns claimed tight end Ricky Seals-Jones on Sunday after the Arizona Cardinals let him go on final cutdowns. Seals-Jones signed with the Cardinals as an undrafted rookie in 2017 and had played the past two seasons in Arizona. He has 46 receptions for 544 yards and four touchdowns in his career. Seals-Jones will […]

Broncos Defense Viable Play In Week One Versus Raiders

Denver Broncos Defense faces a week one matchup versus a new look Oakland Raiders offense and looks to bring back a historically solid defense from years past.

DaeSean Hamilton Has Very Little Relevance In Week One

Denver Broncos wide receiver Daesean Hamilton currently holds very little fantasy relevance in week one as the Broncos face the Oakland Raiders on Monday night. Hamilton is currently the third receiver on the Broncos depth chart and should get some looks in week one from Joe Flacco in his first game as a Bronco. However, […]

Courtland Sutton Should Be On Benches For Week One

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton starts off his sophomore campaign in a matchup against an unproven secondary hosted by the Oakland Raiders. Sutton enters 2019 with hopes of improving on a sub-par statistical year in 2018 but showed signs of being able to become a solid wide receiver for the Broncos. The Southern Methodist […]

Emmanuel Sanders Deep League Play Versus Raiders

Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is coming off of an Achilles injury that he has slowly worked his way back from this offseason but looked to be full speed in limited action this preseason. Sanders has been the clear lead receiver in Denver for the past few years, but the young bucks on the […]
