Victor Wembanyama Questionable For Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Victor Wembanyama (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. The talented rookie missed Monday's game with a sprained ankle, and his playing status is in doubt once again. The injury is not severe considering the fact he has a chance to play, however, it would not […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Questionable Versus The Clippers

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) is considered questionable for Wednesday's clash with the Los Angeles Clippers. He didn't play in Monday's loss to Sacramento because of shoulder soreness. As a result, Nicolas Batum slid into the starting lineup. However, Batum was held scoreless, so he'll be hard to trust from a fantasy standpoint […]

Alex Faedo Makes Opening Day Roster

Detroit Tigers right-hander Alex Faedo made the team's Opening Day roster for the first time in his career. In addition, left-hander Joey Wentz made the team out of spring training. In large part due to injuries, the 28-year-old Faedo has had an uneven two seasons in the big leagues with Detroit. He's dealt with blister […]

Alex Smalley A Complete Flier Pick In Houston

From a statistical perspective, Alex Smalley is as gross as they come. He has only played one meaningful tournament in 2024 (T21 at the American Express), which was an event that featured the most improbable of outcomes. Things have been on a bad run mostly thanks to irons and putter performances that seem to fluctuate […]

Quentin Grimes Out Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Quentin Grimes (knee) will not play against Minnesota on Wednesday due to a knee injury. This is his eighth consecutive game missed due to a right knee contusion. Simone Fontecchio (toe) will also be unavailable. Additionally, Cade Cunningham (knee/rest) is listed as questionable after missing multiple games. As a result, Jaden Ivey […]

Max Strus Questionable For Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Max Strus (knee) is questionable heading into Wednesday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. The 27-year-old has been sidelined for a few weeks because of a sprained right knee. While there's a chance he won't return versus Philly, the injury designation suggests he's at least moving in the right direction. But if Strus […]

Lauri Markkanen Questionable For Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (quadriceps) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup with San Antonio due to a right quadriceps contusion. Markkanen posted 34 points, seven rebounds, two assists, and one block in 34 minutes during Monday's 115-105 loss to the Mavericks. The 26-year-old has played in only four out of 12 games in March. If […]

Cameron Johnson Will Not Play Against Washington

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (toe) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards, as he continues to be hampered by a sprained toe. This will be the second straight game that Johnson will miss because of the injury. The 28-year-old sharpshooter was shooting well from beyond the arc in the previous […]

Robert MacIntyre Making Houston Open Debut

Things have been slow and steady since a T6 finish at the Mexico Open for Robert MacIntyre, but he isn't doing anything in his rounds that jump off the page. He has stayed around even in total strokes gained in three of his last four starts, aside from a poor outing at TPC Sawgrass. Bobby […]

Maxi Kleber Cleared To Face Sacramento

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (knee) will play on Tuesday versus Sacramento. Dallas needs a win on Tuesday night, so it's all hands on deck for this one. Luka Doncic (Achilles) is available, which is undoubtedly good news. And while Kleber provides depth for the Mavs, he's only averaged 2.2 points and 2.7 rebounds in […]

Luka Doncic Available On Tuesday Night

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (Achilles) will play on Tuesday against the Sacramento Kings. The 25-year-old logged 41 minutes in Monday's win over the Utah Jazz. However, he popped up on the injury report on Tuesday because of Achilles soreness. But Dallas is fighting to secure at least a sixth seed in the Western Conference, […]

Cam Thomas Draws Questionable Tag For Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game in Washington. Cameron Johnson (toe) and Dennis Smith Jr. (hip) were ruled out shortly before Monday's win over Toronto. Unfortunately, the Nets would lose another of their core players heading into that one, with Thomas suffering lower back tightness during pre-game warmups. As a […]

Sasha Vezenkov Unavailable Tuesday

Sacramento Kings forward Sasha Vezenkov (ankle) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday. The 28-year-old has been nursing an ankle injury for over a month. His next opportunity to return is on Friday in a rematch with the Mavericks. He hasn't really been missed since his exit from the lineup, as he has […]

Chesson Hadley Is A Risky Play In Houston

Finding reasons to like Chesson Hadley this week at the Houston Open starts and ends with the putter. With a ranking of 21st in strokes gained putting (0.544), everything falls off a cliff past that with being ranked outside the top 100 in every other solo strokes gained metric. Hadley is another guy on the […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Discussing Extension With Lions

Bailey Ober - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 142 CURRENT ADP: ~160 overall ANALYSIS: There's a lot to like about Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober, especially after a strong 2023 campaign.

Jackson Chourio - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Draft Values (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 147 CURRENT ADP: ~155 overall ANALYSIS: Chourio made waves in the prospect community in 2022 as a young 18-year-old who completely skipped the Complex and headed off to Single-A Carolina, where he hit the ground running. Chourio made it to Double-A in 2022 and, between three levels, slashed .288/.342/.538 […]

Kutter Crawford - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 271 CURRENT ADP: ~298 overall ANALYSIS: Kutter Crawford was a pleasant surprise in 2023, with a decent 4.04 ERA, 3.83 FIP, 1.11 WHIP, 25.5% strikeout rate, and 6.8% walk rate. His 284 ADP and previous numbers signal he can be a nice rotation cog, but there's a solid chance […]

Hunter Brown - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values and Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 136 CURRENT ADP: ~156 overall ANALYSIS: A surface-level analysis would suggest that Hunter Brown is a great sleeper for 2024. His 5.09 ERA masked a 3.52 xFIP across his 155⅔ IP, his 26.8 K% and 8.3 BB% were solid, and his .330 BABIP, 68.8% strand rate, and 21% HR/FB appear primed […]

Ricky Tiedemann - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Draft Values (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 372 CURRENT ADP: ~390 overall ANALYSIS: The hype surrounding the Blue Jays' top pitching prospect is building towards a fever pitch. The hard-throwing lefty also features a sharp, biting slider, and a plus changeup. His minor league numbers are pretty incredible; however, he's thrown only 78 and 44 innings […]

That is not because of his talent or capabilities but his inability to stay healthy. Lowe has been limited to 174 of […]

Pete Fairbanks - Fantasy Baseball Closer Sleepers (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Target in drafts ~pick 98 CURRENT ADP: ~115 overall ANALYSIS: Pete Fairbanks is another closer that managers tend to be gun-shy about due to his injury history.

Victor Perez Making Tournament Debut In Houston

The impressive play tee to green (24th on the season in strokes gained tee to green: 0.743) for Victor Perez in 2024 has been largely negated by horrendous performances on and around the green. Something that can only be attributed to his jump from the DP World Tour to the more glamorous tour in the […]
