Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Continues To Struggle

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. went 0-for-4 in a 6-3 win over the Miami Marlins on Wednesday. It's been a tough go lately for Guerrero Jr., who is just 2-for-16 over his last four games. Three of his four outs in this one were groundouts, two of which had sub-80 mph exit […]

Thomas Detry A Tough Option At Travelers

Thomas Detry is looking to finish strong in what has been the best PGA Tour season of his career. Detry has three top-10 finishes so far this season, but hasn't had one since March. Detry's game doesn't set up well for the Travelers Championship, as he struggles on par 5s. Detry sits 124th on tour […]

Jonathan Aranda - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Jonathan Aranda, 2B/3B, Tampa Bay Rays ANALYSIS: Originally signed by the Rays in 2015 out of Mexico, Aranda made his major league debut last season and many expected him to compete for a roster spot out of spring training, but impressive performances and surprising health from competitors for the infield positions that Aranda plays […]

Taj Bradley Sharp In Win Over The Orioles

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Taj Bradley earned the win on Wednesday when he allowed one run on three hits with eight strikeouts over six innings in a 7-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Bradley didn't issue a free pass in this one, either, as the Orioles had no answer for him. The only blemish […]

Michael Grove Called Up To Start Wednesday

The Los Angeles Dodgers recalled right-hander Michael Grove from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday and placed right-hander Shelby Miller (neck) on the injured list in a corresponding move due to neck pain. Grove will make the start on Wednesday against the crosstown Los Angeles Angels. Not many fantasy managers will be brave enough to stream […]

Stephan Jager Staying Hot Into Travelers Championship

Make it six made cuts in a row, and 10 of the last 11, for Stephan Jager since February. Jager continues to put together solid weeks on tour, jumping into the top 75 in the FedEx Cup standings. Jager has a top-30 finish at the Travelers in his career, but he did miss his last […]

Carlos Rodon To Make His Next Rehab Start Sunday

New York Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodon (back, forearm) will make his next minor-league rehab start on Sunday for Double-A Somerset.

The 30-year-old All-Star southpaw gave up a run while striking out five in three innings […]

Jordan Walker Dealing With Illness

St. Louis Cardinals rookie outfielder Jordan Walker (illness) is dealing with a bit of an illness, according to manager Oliver Marmol, which is why he wasn't in the team's starting lineup on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals. And with the Cardinals not playing again until Saturday in London against the division-rival Chicago Cubs, there's a […]

Harris English Heavily Reliant On His Putter

Harris English has great course history at the Travelers, including a 2021 win, but his statistical profile makes it hard to trust him this week. English has three top-10 finishes this season but has needed elite putting to do so. English gained over two strokes with his putter, which is tough to rely on weekly. […]

Will Gordon Continues To Fly Under The Radar

Will Gordon returns to the course he recorded his best PGA Tour finish at in 2020 in TPC River Highlands and the Travelers Championship. Gordon comes off a solid top-20 finish in his last time out at the RBC Canadian Open, his fourth made cut in his last six starts. Gordon is in the top […]

Ludvig Aberg An Intriguing Option At Travelers

Ludvig Aberg will be making his second start as a PGA Tour professional at this week's Travelers Championship, and there is plenty to be excited about. He has made the cut in all three of his PGA Tour starts in 2023, including top-25 finishes at the elevated Arnold Palmer Invitational and two weeks ago at […]

Tim Anderson Still Not Playing

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (shoulder) remains out for the White Sox on Wednesday against the visiting Texas Rangers. Anderson will be missing his fourth straight game, although he did appear as a pinch-hitter on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should continue to consider Anderson day-to-day. In his absence on Wednesday, Elvis Andrus will again man […]

Russell Henley A Perfect Fit For Travelers

There are very few course fits that profile better for a player than Russell Henley at the Travelers. Henley doesn't hit the ball far off the tee, but his ball-striking accuracy is elite. Henley's putter has held him back this year, but it's been trending toward a positive and he's gained in three of five […]

Michael Taylor Returns To Lineup Wednesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Michael Taylor (head) is back patrolling center field and is hitting ninth in the batting order on Wednesday against the visiting Boston Red Sox and right-hander Garrett Whitlock. Taylor missed the last two games after being hit in the head by a pitch, but he managed to avoid a concussion and will […]

Cameron Young Starting To Turn Things Around

Cameron Young put together his best finish since early April last week with a T32 at the U.S. Open. Young has dropped over 15 spots in the FedEx Cup standings in that time, but should continue his turn around this week. Young can take full advantage of the shorter course, as he currently sits as […]

Si Woo Kim Continues Solid Stretch Of Play

Major championship tournaments are probably not the place to play Si Woo Kim. While Kim is an accurate ball striker, he struggles with his short game and the elite events require an all-around skill set. Outside of a missed cut at the PGA Championship and a T39 at the U.S. Open, Kim has been on […]

Yankees Resting Giancarlo Stanton Against Mariners

New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton will not start on Wednesday against the visiting Seattle Mariners. It's a good time for Stanton to take a day off, as he's gone hitless with seven strikeouts in 11 at-bats in his last three games. The 33-year-old All-Star slugger has six home runs in only 26 games […]

Brent Rooker Sitting Against Guardians

Oakland Athletics outfielder Brent Rooker will take a seat on the bench on Wednesday as the team faces the Cleveland Guardians. Rooker has been a nice story for the last-place A's this year, but he's fallen on hard times of late and has gone 11-for-51 (.216) with two home runs, six RBI, three doubles and […]

Be Aware Of Adam Scott's Driver Accuracy At Travelers

For most of the year, Adam Scott's approach play has held him back while the rest of his game has been among the best. While Scott has continued to struggle with his irons, the bigger issue this week is his driver. Scott brings elite distance off the tee but is among the worst on Tour […]

J.P. Crawford Out Of The Lineup Wednesday

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford (shoulder) is not in the team's starting lineup on Wednesday against the New York Yankees. It's not a surprise after he was forced from Tuesday's game early due to a right-shoulder contusion. However, the good news is the 28-year-old's X-rays came back negative, so he's considered day-to-day and could return […]

Portland Shutting Down All Calls About Damian Lillard

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard has been the topic of what feels like every trade rumor for the last three seasons. According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on the Pat McAfee Show, the Blazers have been shutting down anyone who has called about the possibility of trading for the seven-time all-star. The team seems committed […]

Nets, Celtics Both Expressing Trade Interest In John Collins

The Dallas Mavericks were in talks for a bit surrounding […]

Approach-Play Trends Troubling For Shane Lowry

For most of this season, Shane Lowry has been an elite ball-striker but has struggled with his short game. Over the past two weeks, Lowry's short game has improved, but his approach play has dipped. After Lowry gained strokes on approach in every event since April, he has lost strokes there in the past two […]

Jazz, Mavericks Showing Interest In Signing Kyle Kuzma

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma opted out of the remaining year in his contract to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Two of the teams showing interest in signing the 27-year-old, according to Matt Moore of Action Network, are the Utah Jazz and Dallas Mavericks. Luka Doncic could use another bigger scoring option in […]

Derek Bernard - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Outlook and Analysis

PROSPECT: Derek Bernard, 2B, Colorado Rockies ANALYSIS: Signed for $185,000 out of the Dominican Republic last season, Bernard was one of the youngest signees in the 2022 class. Bernard was a surprising reassignment to the DSL this year after putting up strong stats, with a .308/.377/.439 slash line and four homers and 11 steals in […]

Brooklyn Has Fielded Multiple Calls About Dorian Finney-Smith

Brooklyn Nets forward Dorian Finney-Smith is about to enter his eighth season in the NBA after just turning 30. According to Matt Moore of Action Network, that hasn't deterred any contending teams from calling the Nets about a trade. He's had quite the inconsistent three-point shot recently, but his 3-and-D prototype is something that the […]

Sungjae Im Continues To Struggle

Sungjae Im has been one of the PGA Tour's most consistent players since his debut. Unfortunately for Im, since his win in Korea last month he has been consistently bad. Im has missed three of his last four cuts and has lost strokes in three of those events. His approach numbers have been brutal and […]

How Will Wyndham Clark Respond After U.S. Open Win?

After his first PGA Tour win, Wyndham Clark missed the cut at the PGA Championship the following week. That course rewarded accuracy off the tee, which is not something that is part of Clark's game. Once again, the Travelers asked for accuracy from the driver and doesn't reward distance very much. Despite saying that, Clark […]

Nuggets Swapping Draft Picks With Indiana

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Denver Nuggets are trading a 2024 first-round pick and the 40th pick of this year's draft to the Indiana Pacers for the 29th and 32nd picks this year. Reports were swirling that the Nuggets wanted to get into the first round of the draft as it seems like they […]
