Round 2 PGA DFS Showdown Slate Picks - the 2023 US Open

The first round of the US Open is in the books, and we had Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele both shoot 62 today to co-lead the tournament by two shots over Wyndham Clark and Dustin Johnson in T3. The course played really easy by US Open standards today, but we can expect some wind and […]

Commanders Monitoring Kareem Hunt

The Washington Commanders have quietly been making preliminary inquiries behind the scenes on free-agent running back Kareem Hunt, according to a league source. It remains to be seen if this leads to an opportunity for Hunt with Washington, and it's intriguing from a fantasy perspective given Hunt's ties to new offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy from […]

Jacob Webb Gets Out Of Jam For First Save

Los Angeles Angels reliever Jacob Webb notched his first save of the season Thursday, securing a 5-3 win over the Texas Rangers. Webb came into a doozy of a situation, as closer Carlos Estevez allowed three walks before being pulled. Webb did walk a batter, but he pitched well enough to get out of it. […]

Carl Edwards Jr. Records Rare Save

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Carl Edwards Jr. picked up his second save of the year in a 4-1 win over the Houston Astros. After Kyle Finnegan pitched the eighth and Hunter Harvey blew a save in the ninth, the Nats went to their next option in Edwards Jr. in the tenth. He got the job […]

Emmanuel Clase Picks Up Four-Out Save Thursday

Cleveland Guardians closer Emmanuel Clase notched his league-leading 21st save on Thursday, recording the final four outs of an 8-6 victory over the San Diego Padres. Clase was brought in with a runner at second and two outs in the eighth, and got Manny Machado to ground out to end the threat. He then pitched […]

Felix Bautista Notches 18th Save

Baltimore Orioles closer Felix Bautista shut down the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday, securing a 4-2 win. Bautista was asked to record the final four outs of this one, as he came into a sticky situation with runners on first and second and two out in the eighth. He got a strikeout to end that […]

Gio Urshela Exits Early With Hip Injury

Los Angeles Angels corner infielder Gio Urshela (hip) was removed from Thursday's game against the Texas Rangers in the first inning after falling down while running out a double-play ball. Urshela said after the game that he couldn't walk and both his hips and knee hurt. Urshela will likely miss some time, especially since he […]

Anthony Rendon Going For Imaging After Being Hit On Wrist

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (wrist) was hit by a pitch on his wrist in the first inning of Thursday's game against the Texas Rangers and is getting X-rays to determine the severity of the injury.

Saints Sign Center Billy Price

The New Orleans Saints signed free-agent center Billy Price to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. Price will head to the Big Easy after making 11 starts in 2022 with the Arizona Cardinals. The former first-round pick of the Cincinnati Bengals in 2018 out of Ohio State will provide depth at the pivot behind Erik McCoy, […]

Taysom Hill Hopes To Be Used More As Pass-Catcher

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill said his hope and expectation is that he will see more action as a pass-catcher this year when he was asked how his role could expand in 2023. The converted quarterback was used mostly out of the backfield on designed runs last year, seeing a career-high 96 rushing […]

DeAndre Hopkins Meets With Patriots, In No Rush To Sign

Free-agent wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins visited with the New England Patriots on Thursday, and barring an unexpected turn, both sides are expected to take some time to assess their next steps, according to a source familiar with the visit. The 31-year-old is in no rush to sign and has considered waiting until closer to training […]

Joey Votto Goes Deep In Rehab Game

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto (biceps, shoulder) had his best minor-league rehab performance on Thursday for Triple-A Louisville, going 2-for-2 with a solo home run, two runs scored and two walks. The veteran left-handed slugger has now cleared the fences twice on his rehab assignment in his last five games, and he's getting closer […]

Mike Clevinger Avoids Structural Damage, IL Stint Still Likely

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Mike Clevinger (biceps) said he doesn't have structural damage in his shoulder or elbow, but he's dealing with fluid in his biceps after being forced from his start early on Wednesday night against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Clevinger called it the "best news possible." However, an injured-list stint seems likely. […]

Tarik Skubal Strikes Out Five In Latest Rehab Start

Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal (elbow) looked sharp in his latest minor-league rehab start for Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, tossing three scoreless innings on one hit while walking none and striking out five. This was his first rehab start with Toledo after allowing an unearned run on three hits while walking none and fanning seven […]

Max Fried Throwing Off A Mound

Atlanta Braves left-hander Max Fried (forearm) has resumed throwing off a mound, but he hasn't faced hitters yet. The Braves are being cautious with his rehab, and he won't be back with the team until after the All-Star break in mid-July. Fried will eventually advance to full bullpen sessions, will resume facing hitters and will […]

Chidobe Awuzie Should Be Ready For Week 1

Cincinnati Bengals defensive back Chidobe Awuzie (knee) is nearly a lock to be ready for Week 1, according to Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic. Awuzie is currently working his way back from an ACL tear that forced him to miss a good chunk of last season. It sounds like Awuzie is doing great in […]

Kyle Wright Cleared For Throwing Program

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kyle Wright (shoulder) has been cleared to begin a throwing program, but there remains no timetable for his return. Wright has been out since early May due to a right-shoulder strain, and he won't be back in Atlanta's starting rotation until some point in the second half of the season after […]

Ben Skowronek Not Practicing

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Ben Skowronek (foot) is currently not practicing in minicamp. The 25-year-old is dealing with a foot issue that is believed to be minor. Skowronek became a fairly popular target for the Rams late in the season last year. However, it's unlikely he carries over the same value with Cooper Kupp […]

Christian Encarnacion-Strand Making Start In Right Field

Cincinnati Reds prospect Christian Encarnacion-Strand is making his first start in right field on Thursday for Triple-A Louisville as he adds another position along with first and third base. The added versatility will make the team's No. 7 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, even more valuable to the major-league squad whenever they decide to call him […]

Trent Sherfield Impressing In Camp

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Trent Sherfield has reportedly stood out early in camp. The 27-year-old has stepped up and been a favorite of quarterback Josh Allen. Sherfield was brought in as depth, but might be able to earn himself the No. 3 receiver job. He's expected to compete with Khalil Shakir and Deonte Harty for […]

Zach Neto Placed On 10-Day Injured List

The Los Angeles Angels placed rookie infielder Zach Neto (oblique) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with a left-oblique strain. In corresponding moves, the Angels recalled infielder Andrew Velazquez from Triple-A Salt Lake and left-hander Kolton Ingram from Double-A Rocket City and optioned right-hander Jimmy Herget to Salt Lake. Neto left the game early […]

Deandre Hopkins Receives Offer From Titans

Free-agent wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has reportedly received a contract offer from the Tennessee Titans. The All-Pro wideout is making his rounds and likely plans to visit with multiple organizations before making his decision. The 31-year-old said that he's in no rush to sign, so expect this situation to drag out for some time. The […]

J.K. Dobbins' Absence Was Contract-Related

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins has been absent from mandatory minicamp because he's seeking a contract extension. The 24-year-old mentioned he plans to report to training camp because he doesn't want to deal with the fines that come with skipping it. The former second-round pick of the Ravens is entering the final year of […]

Pacers Showing Interest In Grant Williams

Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams is set to become a restricted free agent this summer. The 24-year-old recently underwent hand surgery, but should be fine by the beginning of next season. That being said, Williams should have a fairly decent market in free agency. The Pacers are reportedly going to be in the mix for […]

Pelicans Unlikely To Trade Brandon Ingram

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram is unlikely to be moved this offseason. The organization says no player is untouchable, but they have shown little interest in moving Ingram, according to Yahoo Sports. Ingram is coming off a 45-game, injury-plagued season with the Pelicans. Despite that, he still averaged 24.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 5.8 […]

Payton Pritchard Unlikely To Find Perfect Fit

Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard recently mentioned that he'd rather be traded than play off the bench. The 25-year-old has played a minimal role on the team over the last three seasons. The organization has high praise for Pritchard and the way he plays the game. However, they don't have the minutes available for him […]

Taj Bradley Punches Out 11 Batters But Only Lasts 4 1/3 Innings

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Taj Bradley didn't factor into the decision on Thursday when he allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits with 11 strikeouts and three walks over 4 1/3 innings in a 4-3 win over the Oakland Athletics. Bradley looked like he was well on his way to throwing a complete […]

Dynasty Fantasy Football Trade Targets - Buy/Sell For June Including Jahmyr Gibbs, Geno Smith, Jahan Dotson, Rondale Moore

It's been over a month since the NFL Draft, but dynasty player values continue to change every day as we enter a portion of the offseason fueled by irrational hype and overreaction. We've all fallen victim to coach speak and highlights of our favorite players dominating during OTAs and training camp. As difficult as it […]

Fantasy Football Veteran RBs Set to Lose Touches in 2023

NFL free agency and the draft have reshaped position groups across the league. One of those groups that has really been shaken up is the running back position. And with those shake-ups comes the inevitable: with new players entering the league and old players changing teams, some guys are going to end up seeing their […]
