Shedeur Sanders - 2025 Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Sleepers and Values

DRAFT PICK: 5th Round (#144 Overall Pick) TEAM: Cleveland Browns ROOKIE DRAFT ANALYSIS: I maintain the stance I've had since before the NFL Draft, which is that Shedeur Sanders is the second-best quarterback from the 2025 class. The reasons Sanders dropped to the fifth round make some sense. His pre-draft interviews sounded like they didn't go […]

Ben Griffin is the Appropriate Favorite at TPC Deere Run

Hoping to build on his T5 finish here last season and continue his impressive run since winning the Zurich Classic in April, Ben Griffin should have a strong chance to capture his second win this season. The game that's been on display for the last 10 weeks or so doesn't exactly correlate with what's shown […]

Ronny Mauricio Out of Mets Lineup

New York Mets infielder Ronny Mauricio is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's tilt against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers at Citi Field.

Cincinnati Reds infield prospect Sal Stewart has been selected to play in the All-Star Futures Game on Saturday, July 12 at Truist Park.

Jason Day is a Fine Play With Limited Upside at John Deere Classic

It's a bit surprising to see Jason Day, who is inside the top 30 in FedEx Cup points and continues to show great form, make the trip this week to Illinois for one of the more mundane events on the PGA Tour schedule. However, it does present an opportunity for the Aussie to be one […]

Vasilije Micic Dealt to Bucks on Tuesday

ESPN's Shams Charania reports that the Charlotte Hornets have traded 31-year-old guard Vasilije Micic to the Milwaukee Bucks for guard/forward Pat Connaughton. Charlotte also receives two second picks in 2031 and 2032. Milwaukee has been very active this offseason, so it is unclear what the organization has planned for Micic. During the 2024-25 campaign, the 31-year-old […]

Daniel Suarez and Trackhouse Racing Parting Ways After 2025 Season

Another domino in this year's NASCAR "Silly Season" has fallen. It was announced on Tuesday that Trackhouse Racing and Daniel Suarez will part ways at the conclusion of the 2025 season in a mutually agreed-upon situation. A few weeks ago in Mexico City, Suarez noted, "There [are] a lot of things in Trackhouse that are […]

Colton Ledbetter Earns Southern League Player of the Week Honors

Tampa Bay Rays outfield prospect Colton Ledbetter earned Southern League Player of the Week honors after a hot six-game stretch from June 23-29 for Double-A Montgomery.

Kyle Wright Out at Least Two Weeks With Oblique Strain

MLB.com's Doug Miller reports that Kansas City Royals right-hander Kyle Wright (oblique) suffered a Grade 2 left-oblique strain and will be shut down for at least two weeks at Triple-A Omaha.

Sean Manaea to Make Rehab Start on Tuesday

New York Mets left-hander Sean Manaea (elbow, oblique) will make a minor-league rehab start for Double-A Binghamton on Tuesday night. Manaea hasn't pitched all year in the big leagues due to an oblique injury before recently being diagnosed with a loose body in his left elbow.

Kyler Fedko Named Texas League Player of the Week

Minnesota Twins outfield prospect Kyler Fedko was named the Texas League Player of the Week for his performance from June 23-29 at Double-A Wichita. The 25-year-old went 9-for-23 (.391) with seven extra-base hits, including five home runs, 13 RBI, eight runs scored, three steals, and a 3:4 BB:K in six games. The former 12th-round draft […]

Luke Clanton Looks to Have Another Strong Week at TPC Deere Run

Perhaps the biggest coming-out event of last season for Luke Clanton came at this week's John Deere Classic, where the then-amateur posted bookend 63s to finish tied for second. His distance off the tee is a help at most places (311.6), and while it certainly isn't a bad thing here, accuracy is usually the more […]

Pat Connaughton Traded to Hornets

On Tuesday, the Milwaukee Bucks traded guard/forward Pat Connaughton and two of their second-round picks in 2031 and 2032 to the Charlotte Hornets for guard Vasilije Micic, per Shams Charania of ESPN. Connaughton heads to the Hornets after exercising his $9.42 million player option for 2025-26. Last season, the 32-year-old averaged 5.3 points, 2.7 rebounds, 1.7 […]

Javier Assad Should Contribute in the Second Half

Chicago Cubs general manager Carter Hawkins says it's "reasonable" to expect right-hander Javier Assad (oblique) to contribute in the second half of the season and referenced August/September as a tentative timetable. It's been an injury-plagued season for Assad, who initially strained his left oblique during spring training and then aggravated the injury in late April […]

Hunter Dobbins to Make Rehab Start This Weekend

Boston Red Sox rookie right-hander Hunter Dobbins (elbow) is scheduled to make a minor-league rehab start with Double-A Portland this weekend against Double-A New Hampshire, according to a source. Dobbins has been on the 15-day injured list since June 21 with a right-elbow strain, but he could rejoin Boston's starting rotation next week if his […]
