Seth Johnson Hoping To Pitch Late In 2023

Baltimore Orioles right-hander Seth Johnson (elbow), who is recovering from Tommy John surgery, said he's "hoping to be able to pitch by next August, maybe in some Complex League games." Johnson came to Baltimore in a three-team trade that involved the Tampa Bay Rays and Houston Astros on Aug. 1. Per MLB Pipeline, Johnson is […]

Mamadi Diakite Will Join Starting Five For Cleveland

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Mamadi Diakite will be the one receiving a spot-start instead of Isaac Okoro against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night. This is a very surprising turn of events after the team will be without Jarrett Allen and Lamar Stevens again. Both Caris LeVert and Cedi Osman will continue to come off of […]

Mike Boone Returns To Practice

The Denver Broncos have designated running back Mike Boone (ankle) to return from Injured Reserve. The Broncos now have 21 days to elevate Boone to the active roster. Boone was able to practice on Wednesday and, if activated, will be eligible to suit up on Sunday for the first time since suffering an ankle injury […]

Carlos Duran, Edgardo Henriquez Have Tommy John Surgery

Los Angeles Dodgers right-handers Carlos Duran (elbow) and Edgardo Henriquez (elbow) both recently underwent Tommy John surgery and will miss all of the 2023 season next year. The two big, hard-throwing righties were among the team's top pitching prospects at the Single-A levels. According to MLB Pipeline, Duran is ranked as the club's No. 19 […]

Khris Middleton's Return Date Still In Question

The Milwaukee Bucks still have no debut date for power forward Khris Middleton (wrist). With the Bucks sitting second in the league, perhaps rushing Middleton back is unnecessary. Still, the Bucks offense has suffered without Giannis Antetokounmpo's running mate. Middleton's return adds another wrinkle to the Bucks offense. Ranked 18th in offensive rating, Milwaukee has […]

Yankees Have Made Big Offer To Aaron Judge

The New York Yankees have offered free-agent outfielder Aaron Judge a deal in the neighborhood of eight years and $300 million after hitting a record-setting 62 home runs in the American League in 2022. He's primed to sign a record-setting deal at this year's winter meetings, exceeding the previous high average annual value for a […]

Jaylen Brown To Return Versus Miami

After missing a game due to a stiff neck, Boston Celtics small forward Jaylen Brown returns to battle the Miami Heat on Wednesday night. Averaging 40.4 fantasy points in his last five games, Brown provides the Celtics with a plethora of production. Above all of his contributions, Brown's defensive performances keep the Celtics as a […]

Michael Gallup Misses Wednesday's Practice

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup (illness) was sidelined for the team's practice on Wednesday with an illness. Gallup posted season-highs in targets, receptions, and receiving yards in Week 12 and will hopefully be able to suit up on Sunday for a difficult matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. Noah Brown would likely see an uptick […]

Browns Defense A Solid Fantasy Play In Week 13

The Cleveland Browns defense will head on the road to face off against the Houston Texans in Week 13. Houston turned to veteran quarterback Kyle Allen in Week 12, benching Davis Mills after he went 1-8-1 over the first 10 games of the year. Cleveland's defense has underperformed itself this season but they are in […]

Calvin Petersen Placed On Waivers

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen was placed on waivers Wednesday. This is a very surprising move from the team, considering that Petersen has only just started the first season of a three-year deal worth $15 million, but his $5 million cap hit makes it very unlikely that somebody claims him. Petersen earned the nice […]

Markelle Fultz To Play Limited Minutes In Season Debut

Although Orlando Magic point guard Markelle Fultz (toe) will start in his 2022-2023 debut versus the Atlanta Hawks, the Magic want to ease him into the rotation and plan to stop his play at 15 minutes. With his fractured left toe being the reason why he's missed every game of the season so far, it's […]

Isaiah Likely Limited On Wednesday

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Likely was forced to miss Week 12 with an ankle injury that he picked up during last Friday's practice session. It seems that the rookie will have a chance to return to action against the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Although […]

Cade York A Solid Option In Week 13

Cleveland Browns kicker Cade York will head on the road to take on the Houston Texans in Week 13. York has been inconsistent in his rookie season, making 17 of his 23 field goals on the year. The Texans represent a plus matchup for York as they are allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones A Flex Option Vs. Texans

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones had a streak of seven straight games with at least 50 receiving yards snapped in a Week 12 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Peoples-Jones will look to start up a new streak in Week 13's road matchup against the Houston Texans. Houston is allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points […]

Lamar Jackson Limited In Wednesday's Practice

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (quad) was listed as a limited participant in the team's practice on Wednesday. Jackson seemingly injured his quad during the session and exited early. The 25-year-old was limited with a hip injury early last week but ultimately suited up for Week 12 and finished as a top-10 fantasy quarterback. It […]

John Marino Considered Day-To-Day

New Jersey Devils defenseman John Marino missed Wednesday's practice with an upper-body injury and is considered day-to-day. The team returns to action Thursday against Nashville and Marino could miss his first game of the season. The former Penguin is having a nice debut campaign in Newark, boasting eight points, 28 shots, 25 hits and 29 […]

Ben Simmons To Miss Multiple Games Due To Strained Leg

Frustration builds as the Brooklyn Nets struggle to keep their best defensive player on the court. Ben Simmons will miss multiple contests due to a strained leg. Missing five games so early plays as an omen for what to expect for the duration of the season. Fantasy managers should be cautious as Simmons continues to […]

Amari Cooper A Low-End WR1 Vs. Houston

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper will head on the road to take on the Houston Texans in Week 13. Cooper has been hot of late, having caught 15 balls for 207 yards and two touchdowns over his past two games. He will look to keep it going against a Houston pass defense that is […]

Josh Bailey Dealing With An Upper-Body Injury

New York Islanders winger Josh Bailey is nursing an upper-body injury. He was a late scratch for Tuesday's matchup against Philadelphia and it might now take a bit of time until we see Bailey back in action. The veteran winger hasn't had a good time this season, posting only four goals and three assists in […]

Ilya Lyubushkin Unavailable Wednesday

Buffalo Sabres defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin (undisclosed) will come out of the lineup Wednesday versus Detroit. He suffered an undisclosed injury Monday versus Tampa Bay and will need some time off to recover. With Buffalo also in action on Thursday, Lyubushkin looks set to miss multiple games. Fantasy managers won't miss him, but the Russian rearguard […]

Vincent Trocheck A Game-Time Call Wednesday

New York Rangers center Vincent Trocheck (undisclosed) is a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup versus Ottawa. He's in danger of missing his first game of the season with a health issue the team hasn't specified. Trocheck's work this season includes eight goals and seven assists in 23 games. He already dropped down to the third […]

Ilya Samsonov Returns To Action Wednesday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Ilya Samsonov (knee) will go back to work Wednesday versus San Jose. He will be between the sticks for the first time since Nov. 5. Samsonov's return has led to Erik Kallgren being sent to the AHL and fantasy managers should also drop him. The Russian netminder will be sharing goaltending […]

Kris Letang Out Indefinitely Following A Stroke

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang suffered a stroke on Monday and will be out indefinitely. He surprisingly didn't appear in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Carolina and now we know why. Luckily, it's not expected to be a long-term thing and it's not career-threatening either. Letang also suffered a stroke in 2014, but he […]

Addition By Subtraction: Zach Wilson's Benching A Boost For Jets' Fantasy Football Outlooks

As the New York Jets exit Week 12 with a 31-10 victory over the Chicago Bears, both Jets fans and fantasy football managers are basking in the afterglow of what life looks like without Zach Wilson under center. Gang Green's backers are probably amazed in equal parts that their team enters a Week 13 matchup […]

Kareem Hunt A Low-End Flex Vs. Texans

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt has struggled to produce behind teammate Nick Chubb in 2022. After the two both managed to find production in tandem in the Cleveland backfield over the 2020 and 2021 seasons, Hunt has lately become an afterthought in the offense in 2022 with just 16 carries over his past three […]

DeVante Parker Removed From Injury Report, Cleared For TNF

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (knee) was removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Buffalo Bills. He was limited Monday but practiced in full the last two days. The 29-year-old has posted modest totals as New England's top wideout with 21 catches for 420 yards and a touchdown over […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports For NFL WRs: Week 13 Updates for Ja'Marr Chase, Mike Williams, Jakobi Meyers, and Jerry Jeudy

In recent weeks, fantasy managers were finally able to put Keenan Allen back into their lineups and the good times should keep on rolling this week!
