Adam Hadwin Looks To Continue Valspar Success

Adam Hadwin won the Valspar in 2017, finished T7 at last year's Valspar Championship and finished T12 back in 2019.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Jalen McDaniels (hip) is regarded as questionable for Wednesday's game against Cleveland.

The “Only” league is one of the more challenging fantasy baseball formats. The format forces players to reach into the depths of AL rosters to create the best team possible.

Ranking the Top Ten NBA Point Guards of the 2022-23 Season

Many years ago, the point guard was looked at as someone who'd run the plays, get everyone on the team organized, set up the scoring superstars, and get everyone involved.

San Francisco Giants shortstop prospect Marco Luciano has been reassigned to minor league camp.

Dylan Cease's Velocity On The Rise

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Dylan Cease topped out at 95 mph in his last Cactus League appearance, but he was sitting at 95-97 mph in his first inning of work on Tuesday against the Oakland Athletics. His slider hasn't been very sharp, though, which led to him giving up two runs in his first […]

Dodgers Reassign Diego Cartaya

Los Angeles Dodgers top prospect Diego Cartaya has been reassigned by the organization. Cartaya, 21, is the prize of a loaded Dodgers farm system, but struggled in limited action this spring with just one hit over 11 at-bats.

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Graham Ashcraft (calf) is listed as the team's starter for Friday's Cactus League contest against the Cleveland Guardians.

Boston Red Sox third baseman/designated hitter Justin Turner (face) is scheduled to take batting practice on Friday.
