Sneaky Overall WR1 Candidates for 2025 Fantasy Football - 5 Sleeper Wide Receiver Contenders

Wide receivers are important assets for fantasy football teams. They often occupy the most spots in starting lineups, and they can have huge boom weeks at any given moment. However, due to their variability in volume, wide receivers can be inconsistent for fantasy managers from game to game and year to year. The volatility at […]

Shelby Miller Records Eighth Save

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Shelby Miller was handed the ball with a two-run lead versus the Colorado Rockies on Saturday. Miller did allow a hit, but he struck out three batters and earned his eighth save of the season. This is now back-to-back scoreless outings from Miller after he struggled earlier in the week. He […]

Andrew Morris Placed on 7-Day IL with Forearm Strain

Minnesota Twins pitching prospect Andrew Morris has been placed on the minor league 7-day injured list due to a right forearm strain. The righty posted solid numbers in Minnesota's organization before this season, but has registered a 4.41 ERA, a gaudy 1.61 WHIP, and just a 12.8 percent K-BB% (8.53 K/9) in 13 starts (63 […]

Luis Garcia Beginning Rehab Assignment on Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Luis Garcia (groin) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Rancho on Sunday. He appears to have progressed enough to throw some rehab outings, so he should return soon. Garcia has been sidelined since early June due to a right groin strain. If everything goes well, Garcia should […]

Ryan Borucki Lands on Injured List

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Ryan Borucki (back) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Borucki made an early exit from Friday's contest after recording only one out. Now, he's set to miss a few weeks with lower back inflammation. Before going down, Borucki was struggling with a 5.26 ERA across 29 appearances with the […]

Chase Burns to be Called Up, Will Start Tuesday Versus Yankees

Cincinnati Reds pitching prospect Chase Burns is expected to be called up from Triple-A Louisville and make his major league debut on Tuesday at home against the Yankees. Burns is the Reds' top-ranked prospect (MLB No. 11) and was selected by the team in the 2024 Draft. The right-hander did not make his professional debut […]

Shea Langeliers Takes Batting Practice

Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers (oblique) was able to take part in batting practice ahead of Saturday's game. Langeliers looked good swinging the bat and was crushing the ball, so it sounds like he's making good progress. He's currently working his way back from an oblique injury that landed him on the 10-day injured list in […]

Bryce Harper Hitting Soft Toss

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper (hand) progressed to hitting soft toss this weekend. Harper has been slowly ramping up his activities but appears to still have quite a while to go before returning to the Phillies lineup. He continues to work his way back from right-wrist inflammation that has sidelined him since early June. […]

Christopher Bell Probably Not Dominant Enough Recently for DFS Play

After his hat trick of wins early this season, Christopher Bell has cooled off considerably in recent months in terms of dominating races. After a 2024 when Bell led over 20 laps eleven times and over 100 laps six times, he has only led more than eight laps twice this season. However, he has remained […]

Bubba Wallace's Lack of Pocono Qualifying Time Makes Him a DFS Must-Have

After three straight crashes, Bubba Wallace sat in a precarious playoff position after the Coca-Cola 600, but after three stronger runs subsequently, he has cemented his playoff position and he is going to a track where he has been very consistent. In his five Pocono starts for 23XI Racing, Wallace has never finished worse than […]

Ross Chastain Not As Good a DFS Option As Usual at Pocono

As usual, Ross Chastain qualified poorly but unlike most weeks, he isn't one of the absolute best DFS options like he usually is because he has never posted a top ten finish at Pocono before. He has had speed at times, particularly in 2022 when Denny Hamlin wrecked him out of the lead during their […]

Chase Briscoe Qualified Too Well for DFS Consideration

Chase Briscoe earned his best starting position at Pocono Raceway when he qualified sixth for today's race. He has not had much success at Pocono in the past as although he has finished on the lead lap in all five of his races, he has never finished better than 15th but he did that with […]

Ricky Stenhouse, Jr.'s Feud with Carson Hocevar Will Be His Only Pocono Storyline Today

After Carson Hocevar wrecked Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. twice in the last three weeks, that effectively eliminated Stenhouse from the playoff picture. He didn't deserve it anyway since he has been extremely mediocre and had merely been lucky not to have a DNF prior to that, but it was still not cool of Hocevar to do […]

Pocono One of Daniel Suarez's Stronger Tracks

Although Daniel Suárez disappointed last weekend in his home race, he's coming to a track where he has had a fair amount of success. In addition to winning the pole in 2018, Suárez has four top tens at Pocono including a second and a third, but most of that success came in his years when […]

Ryan Preece Looks to Close Playoff Deficit to Teammate Chris Buescher

Shane van Gisbergen's win at Mexico City was a sharp blow to Ryan Preece's chances of making the NASCAR playoffs but he remains alive in the playoff hunt and trails his teammate Chris Buescher by a mere 19 points. When considering Preece seems to be faster than Buescher as often as not, it's definitely still […]
