Former Players Championship winner Adam Scott is set to tee it up in the event for the 21st time in his career this week. Scott remains the second-youngest-ever winner of the Players title.

Lucas Gilbreath To Have Tommy John Surgery

Colorado Rockies left-hander Lucas Gilbreath (elbow) will have Tommy John surgery next week, which will knock him out for the entire 2023 season. Depending on how his recovery goes, he could also miss the start of the 2024 campaign. The 27-year-old southpaw reliever appeared in 47 games out of the bullpen for Colorado in his […]

Keegan Bradley Has Value At TPC Sawgrass

Coming off his second top-10 finish in his last four starts, Keegan Bradley returns to TPC Sawgrass, a course he hasn't missed a cut at since 2016.

Astros Hoping To Lock Up Framber Valdez

Houston Astros general manager Dana Brown said he's giving contract talks "48 hours" in the team's attempt to lock up star left-hander Framber Valdez to a long-term contract extension at spring training. Valdez isn't scheduled to become a free agent until after the 2025 seasons, so the Astros still have time if they can't get […]

Patrick Cantlay Heads To The Players In White-Hot Form

A final-round surge in last week's Arnold Palmer Invitational resulted in a T4 for Patrick Cantlay at Bay Hill. It marked Cantlay's second consecutive top-four finish on the PGA Tour.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/8/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a relatively modest slate by Wednesday standards, as there are seven games on tap.

The […]

Astros Working On Extension For Kyle Tucker

Houston Astros general manager Dana Brown said he's giving contract talks "48 hours" in their attempt to lock up star outfielder Kyle Tucker to a long-term deal. "We're communicating.

Lance McCullers Jr. Still Has Not Resumed Throwing

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (forearm) still isn't throwing in spring training, according to manager Dusty Baker. McCullers suffered a right forearm strain three weeks ago during a bullpen session and has yet to resume throwing, and he's already been ruled out for Opening Day. Now fantasy managers want to know just how […]

Will Zalatoris Heads To TPC Sawgrass With Erratic Form

After a serious back injury that sidelined him for the last several months of 2022, Will Zalatoris returned to action in January.

The volatile output continued for […]

If it wasn't for the fact that the Thunder are the 11th seed […]

Yordan Alvarez Hopes To Start Swinging Next Week

Houston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (hand) said that he hopes to start swinging a bat next week at spring training. General manager Dana Brown recently said that he was hoping Alvarez would be swinging by this weekend, so it appears the 25-year-old left-handed slugger is getting close. He's been held back in camp due […]

Tony Finau Has Abysmal History At TPC Sawgrass

You've heard the term "horses for courses" right? This is the opposite of that. It will be the seventh Players Championship start for Tony Finau this week, and he is still looking for his first bit of success at Sawgrass. Finau has one top-25 finish in his first six starts at the event to go […]

Luis Garcia (2B/SS, WAS) - 2023 Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 300 CURRENT ADP: ~330 overall ANALYSIS: I’m sure many have already cursed the name of Washington Nationals second baseman Luis García as they haphazardly draft him instead of the Astros starting pitcher. I have sympathy, but don’t let any struggles with Fantrax’s search bar feature change your perception of this […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/8/23)

It's a relatively small slate for a Wednesday night compared to what we are used to during the NBA season, but with seven games on the docket, there are enough options for us to take some shots on some wagers. After a solid finish to last week, I was able to pull my overall record […]

Jordan Spieth Has Struggled At TPC Sawgrass

It was a classic final-round performance for Jordan Spieth in last week's Arnold Palmer Invitational, as an electric front-nine charge gave way to a disastrous collapse down the stretch. Spieth will need to put last Sunday's emotional roller-coaster ride behind him quickly if he hopes to succeed in the upcoming The Players Championship. Pete Dye's […]

Sungjae Im A Tough Start At Sawgrass

Sungjae Im has seen the weekend in six-straight events after making the cut last weekend at Bay Hill. He now comes into TPC Sawgrass, where he has made back-to-back cuts.

Viktor Hovland Looks To Stay Sharp At The Players

Viktor Hovland heads to this week's Players Championship fresh off his best outing of 2023, a T10 last week in the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Hovland's ball striking was masterful at Bay Hill, as he gained a massive 6.2 strokes tee to green. Unsurprisingly, it was the young Norwegian's short game that ultimately failed him. Hovland […]

Scottie Scheffler Has Struggled At TPC Sawgrass

It was another normal week for Scottie Scheffler last week at Bay Hill, resulting in a top-five finish, his fourth of the season. However, TPC Sawgrass has been everything but nice to Scheffler in his career. Only making one cut at the event, and only shooting one round under 70 in the past two seasons, […]

Flag Hunting: PGA Betting Picks - THE PLAYERS Championship

Kurt. Kitayama. I never thought I’d see the day a 200-1 long shot would stare down and outgun some of the best players on the planet around Bay Hill. Credit to the 30-year-old Californian however, who overcame a back-breaking triple bogey on his ninth hole, and went bogey-free around Bay Hill’s treacherous back-nine to win […]

After Ryan Spann (21-7) had his Feb. 25 main event with Nikita Krylov canceled due to a Krylov illness, the matchup was rescheduled a few weeks later for this Saturday's card.
