Doug Ghim Looking For A Return To Form At TPC San Antonio

The stats say to pick Doug Ghim almost every week, though it bit you last week in Houston where he missed his first cut in the last seven starts and ended an impressive stretch of golf that included two top 20s, two top 15s, and one top 10 finish. The major regression on the greens... Read More

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS Course History - 2024 Valero Texas Open

A huge congrats to my RotoBaller colleague Spencer Aguiar and any of you who were on Stephan Jaeger at around 50-1 last week in Houston. I believe that's three outright winners for Spence this year! A prolific winner on the Korn Ferry Tour, Jaeger nabbed his first-ever PGA Tour victory by holding off none other... Read More

Michael Busch Takes A Seat Versus Southpaw

Chicago Cubs infielder Michael Busch is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies. This marks the first time this season that Busch will take a seat. This makes sense to give Busch some rest against a left-handed starting pitcher. In his place, Garrett Cooper will cover first base and... Read More

Nolan Gorman Absent On Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Nolan Gorman (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Gorman will take a seat after making five straight starts to open the season. The expectation is that he'll be back in the lineup following this rest day. In his absence, Brendan... Read More

Brendon Todd Is A Risky Play With Upside At Valero

After a missed cut at The Players, Brendon Todd bounced back decently at the Valspar with a finish of T33 that was much higher on the leaderboard before a final-round 76. His derailment came both on the greens (-1.83 strokes gained putting) and off the tee (-2.03 strokes gained off the tee). Todd's efficiency with... Read More

Masataka Yoshida Absent From Tuesday's Lineup

Boston Red Sox outfielder Masataka Yoshida (rest) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Oakland Athletics. This appears to be a routine rest day for Yoshida who has been off to a rough start at the plate. Currently, Yoshida is batting .211 with two RBI in five games. The hope... Read More

Lars Nootbaar To Begin Rehab Assignment On Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Lars Nootbaar (ribs) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday. The left-handed outfielder will draw the start in center field for Tuesday's game with Triple-A Memphis. The 26-year-old is working his way back from two fractures in his ribcage that has sidelined him since early March. The expectation is that... Read More

Jordan Beck Showcases Power In Opening Series

Colorado Rockies outfield prospect Jordan Beck starred at the University of Tennessee and has continued to produce in the Rockies' system. The 22-year-old is a four-tool player whose biggest deficiency is his limited contact skills. He has improved his ability to read the strike zone over time but still struggles with strikeouts, of which he... Read More

Quinn Priester Strikes Out Nine In Opener

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Quinn Priester no longer has true prospect eligibility by MLB's standards, but he should be viewed as one given that he is 23 years old, still in Triple-A, and has 10 big league appearances under his belt. The right-hander gets good velocity behind his mid-90s heater and misses plenty of bats... Read More

Ryan Brasier Named As Tuesday's Opener

Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Ryan Brasier will take the ball as the opener for Tuesday's game against the San Francisco Giants. The right-hander will get the starting nod in what appears to be a bullpen game for the Dodgers. The expectation is that Brasier will pitch one or two innings before handing it off... Read More

Joey Loperfido Slugs Three Homers In Opening Series

Houston Astros prospect Joey Loperfido ranks third among the club's outfield prospects but boasts the potential to be an everyday standout in the majors. He runs well, has a strong blend of contact and power, and boasts positional versatility with his ability to play the outfield, first base, or second base. These strengths certainly make... Read More

Slade Cecconi Unhittable In Season Opener

Arizona Diamondbacks pitching prospect Slade Cecconi was selected 33rd overall pick in the 2020 draft. He appeared in seven MLB games last season but retains his prospect status. Furthermore, given the Diamondbacks' strong rotation, there was simply no room for Cecconi in the Opening Day rotation. The right-hander boasts an impressive four-pitch mix, and while... Read More

Wenceel Perez Off To Hot Start

Detroit Tigers shortstop Wenceel Perez has gradually climbed through the farm system since being signed out of the Dominican Republic in 2016. He made his Triple-A debut last season and looked solid, reaching base at a high rate and maintaining a K/BB rate near 1.0. He lacks power and struggles to hit left-handed pitching but... Read More

Jason Heyward Remains Out On Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Jason Heyward (back) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Francisco Giants. As expected, Heyward will sit out after undergoing additional testing earlier in the week due to his back stiffness. The organization is hopeful that this is only a day-to-day issue and Heyward can... Read More

Mitchell Robinson Available On Tuesday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) will play on Tuesday against Miami. The 26-year-old missed over three months due to ankle surgery. However, after appearing in two games, he didn't suit up for Sunday's loss to OKC. But Mitchell will shed the questionable tag and get back in the lineup versus the Heat. However,... Read More
