Wilmer Flores Scratched With Knee Soreness

San Francisco Giants infielder Wilmer Flores (knee) was scratched from the team's Cactus League lineup on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Angels due to a little knee soreness. Flores said "it's nothing." Flores should be considered day-to-day for now and should be ready for Opening Day next Thursday versus the division-rival San Diego Padres. Despite […]

Max Kepler Scratched With Pectoral Tightness

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (pectoral) was scratched from Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Detroit Tigers due to left-pectoral tightness. It's unclear how serious Kepler's pectoral injury is, but for now he'll be considered day-to-day. With Opening Day just right around the corner next Thursday, though, the 31-year-old veteran outfielder could be in danger […]

Kevin Gausman Completes Simulated Game

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman (shoulder) finished a two-inning simulated game in camp on Wednesday, throwing 36 pitches (28 strikes) to seven batters. He allowed two hits and struck out two during the session and said everything felt sound physically with his shoulder. Gausman's next step is to target 60-65 pitches over three innings […]

Aaron Judge Back In Center Field

As expected, New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (abdomen, oblique) is back in center field on Wednesday and is hitting third in the team's Grapefruit League contest versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Judge's return to spring action had been pushed back a few days over the weekend, causing fans and fantasy managers to panic about his […]

Jung Hoo Lee, Patrick Bailey Back In Action

San Francisco Giants outfielder Jung Hoo Lee (hamstring) and catcher Patrick Bailey (hand) are both back in the team's Cactus League lineup on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Angels. Lee is in center field and batting leadoff, while Bailey is behind the dish and hitting seventh for the Gigantes. The 25-year-old Lee was held out […]

Byron Buxton Back In Lineup Wednesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (back) is serving as the designated hitter and is batting second in the team's Grapefruit League game on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers. Buxton was scratched from the spring lineup on Monday due to back tightness, but it turned out to be a minor issue, which is great news for […]

Predicting Eight Eight, Final Four, and Championship Teams - 2024 NCAA March Madness

Early round upsets are fun, but correctly picking the Sweet 16 and Elite 8 is the real reason you win your bracket pool. People love to be right picking a big underdog when in reality only a handful make the Sweet 16 with even fewer advancing to the Elite Eight. As a general rule of […]

Josh Jung - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 109 CURRENT ADP: ~122 ANALYSIS: Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung is coming off of a productive rookie season at the dish. A 2023 All-Star, Jung hit .266 with 23 home runs, 75 runs, 70 RBI, and a .782 OPS across 122 games. While not all was rosy with […]

Zach Neto - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 223 CURRENT ADP: ~349 ANALYSIS: Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto is having a big spring in Cactus League action. The 23-year-old is hitting .333 with 3 HR, 9 R, 9 RBI, and 3 steals. Neto played 84 games at the big-league level in 2023. While his overall numbers were not […]

Jordan Westburg - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 295 CURRENT ADP: ~399 ANALYSIS: Even though 22-year-old Coby Mayo had a strong showing in Spring Training, it looks likely that he will start the year in Triple-A with the Orioles opting to go with Jackson Holliday, Gunnar Henderson, and Jordan Westburg as their starting infielders. The 25-year-old Westburg […]

Greyson Sigg A Volatile Option At Innisbrook

Don't believe anyone who tells you they have figured out a solid strategy for rostering Greyson Sigg in Daily Fantasy Golf. The 29-year-old University of Georgia alum is in his third season on the PGA Tour, and he has almost as many missed cuts to his name as he does top-25 finishes. This season is […]

NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (3/20/24)

We have our typically robust mid-week slate Wednesday night on tap, with eight games on the schedule. There is a trio of games with projected totals north of 230 points, always something we like to see as DFS players. Spreads aren't as appealing -- there's only one contest with less than a nine-point line as […]

Davis Riley A Potential Course Horse For Valspar

Fantasy managers will face a tough decision on whether or not to roster Davis Riley this week. He earned his first Tour victory with partner Nick Hardy at the Zurich Classic back in April of 2023, but his form since then has left plenty to be desired. In those following 24 events he's missed 13 […]

Alexander Bjork A Risky Option At Valspar

Alexander Bjork was on fire on the DP World Tour last year. The 33-year-old Swede racked up nine finishes inside of the top-10, and an additional five finishes inside of the top-20, in just 23 starts in the 2023 calendar year. Unfortunately, those results haven't quite carried over to the PGA Tour this season. Bjork […]

Stay Away From Garrick Higgo At Valspar

Fantasy managers should pay close attention to Garrick Higgo news leading up Thursday tee times. The 24-year-old South African withdrew in the second round of The Players Championship last week due to a wrist injury, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see him withdraw from the Valspar Championship as a result. Even if he […]

Bud Cauley Looking To Make Third Consecutive Cut

Bud Cauley will be making his third PGA Tour start following a three-plus year layoff following injuries stemming from a car accident. Impressively, he made the cut in his previous two starts, including a 65th-place finish at the WM Phoenix Open and a T21 at the Cognizant Classic. He's also reportedly had the upper hand […]

Matt Wallace Seeking Another Top-10 Finish At Innisbrook

Matt Wallace found himself in top form on the DP World Tour in the second half of the 2023 calendar year. The 33-year-old Brit racked up four top-10 finishes in his final eight starts, culminating with a T2 finish at the DP World Tour Championship in November. Unfortunately, those results haven't been replicated on the […]

Andres Gimenez - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 99 CURRENT ADP: ~127 ANALYSIS: Andre Gimenez figures to be a solid value in the middle-round of 2024 drafts. His ADP is roughly 127 but his RotoBaller Rank is 99. The Venezuelan second-basemen and 2022 All-Star didn't have the 2023 campaign many expected, but a bounce-back season could be […]

Norman Powell Could Miss Another Game On Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (leg) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Trail Blazers. A left lower leg contusion took him out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, and Powell could be out for a second consecutive game. With Powell missing, Amir Coffey saw the most minutes off the Clippers bench […]

Terance Mann Listed As Questionable On Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Terance Mann (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Portland. He's dealing with a right shoulder strain and could be out of the lineup for the first time since early November. Norman Powell (leg) would benefit from Mann's absence but is also questionable for the game. If both players […]
