Jacob deGrom Records 10 Strikeouts
Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom had his swing-and-miss stuff going for him during Saturday's start against the Detroit Tigers. The right-hander gave up a solo home run to Kerry Carpenter in the first inning, but settled down after that. He was taken deep once again in the fourth inning by Riley Greene, but deGrom […]

Don't Count Out Ross Chastain At Kansas
Even though he qualified back in 26th place for this weekend's AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway, Ross Chastain should be strong during the race on Sunday. "The Melon Man" is the defending winner here at Kansas Speedway, as the No. 1 Chevrolet went to victory lane here last September despite starting back in 20th place. […]

Ranger Suarez Throws Seven Shutout Innings
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Ranger Suarez bounced back nicely during Saturday's start against the Cleveland Guardians. Suarez was crushed for seven runs during his season debut, but looked much better on the mound in this one. The left-hander really had no issues in this one as he tossed seven shutout innings, allowing three hits, while […]

AdventHealth 400 DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel NASCAR Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (2025)
The NASCAR Cup Series heads to Kansas Speedway this weekend for the final race before the All-Star Race. Last year, Kyle Larson beat Chris Buescher in this race by 0.001 seconds, the closest finish in NASCAR Cup Series history. Will we get the sequel to that this year? The two drivers qualified first and second […]

Alex Bowman Confident Despite Qualifying 21st At Kansas
Alex Bowman doesn't have the best starting position for this weekend's AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway, but that doesn't mean the No. 48 Chevrolet is lacking in speed. Bowman got on X soon after qualifying was over on Saturday to explain that going out early in qualifying hurt him from putting down a fast lap, […]

Brad Keselowski Qualifies 36th At Kansas As Playoff Hopes Continue To Dim
Brad Keselowski can't catch a break. In the midst of his worst season ever in the NASCAR Cup Series, Keselowski is off to a rough start at Kansas Speedway this weekend as well, as the No. 6 Ford suffered a flat tire early in practice on Saturday, and then Brad went out and qualified 36th […]

Jose Altuve Exits Early On Saturday
Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (hamstring) was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. It's unclear how Altuve suffered the hamstring issue as he was replaced by Brendan Rodgers in the third inning. Altuve walked in his lone plate appearance and came around to score in the first […]

Kyle Busch Fast In Practice But Will Start 35th At Kansas After Hitting Wall In Qualifying
Kyle Busch had one of the fastest cars in practice at Kansas Speedway on Saturday afternoon, but he will have some work to do on race day after getting into the wall during his qualifying lap. With that slap of the wall, Busch ended up 35th-fastest out of 38 cars and will roll off the […]

Oneil Cruz Exits With Back Issue
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Oneil Cruz (back) made a late exit during Saturday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Cruz appears to have tweaked his back during the ninth inning of this contest. As a result, Cruz was removed from the contest and replaced by Matt Gorski in center field. Before exiting, Cruz was 0-for-4 with a […]

Erik Jones Has Struggled At Kansas In Next Gen Era
Fresh off of his fifth-place finish at Texas Motor Speedway last weekend, Erik Jones is looking to continue the momentum at Kansas Speedway in this weekend's AdventHealth 400. However, he may need a little bit of luck for that to happen. Jones ranked 37th-fastest in practice (out of 38 total drivers), and while he did […]

Tyler O'Neill Resting On Saturday
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Tyler O'Neill is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. O'Neill was activated off the injured list on Friday after missing time due to a neck injury. He went 1-for-3 in that game, but will sit this one out for rest purposes. In his absence, […]

Austin Dillon Looking To Keep Momentum Rolling At Kansas
Austin Dillon is officially on a hot streak. With his seventh-place finish at Texas Motor Speedway last weekend, the Richard Childress Racing driver now has three straight top-10 finishes in Cup Series action and has ended up 18th or better in five of the last six. The lone exception? His 23rd-place result at Darlington, which, […]

Anthony Santander Remains Out On Saturday
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Anthony Santander (shoulder) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Santander injured his shoulder during Thursday's game and as a result he'll miss his second straight game. It's worth noting that Santander could be available off the bench, which means his injury isn't too […]

AJ Allmendinger The Slowest In Practice At Kansas
One driver that was surprisingly slow during practice and qualifying at Kansas Speedway on Saturday was AJ Allmendinger. The No. 16 Chevrolet was the slowest car in practice by a good margin, over five miles-per-hour slower than the fastest (Ty Gibbs' No. 54 Toyota) and nearly a full mile-per-hour slower than the second-slowest car (Erik […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. A Strong Place-Differential Play At Kansas
Just like last week at Texas, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. looks to be a strong positive place-differential candidate at Kansas Speedway this weekend. At Texas, he was able to walk away with a sixth-place finish after starting way back in 34th (plus-28 positions), making it 10 out of 11 races that he has had a positive […]

Ty Dillon A Safe Mid-Pack Pick At Kansas
Steady is a good word to describe Ty Dillon. Over the last eight races this season, the Kaulig Racing driver has finished between 12th and 16th four times, and has only two results worse than 23rd-place over that span as well. At Kansas Speedway, which is the site of this weekend's AdventHealth 400, it's more […]

Riley Herbst Could Have Top-20 Upside At Kansas
Don't overlook Riley Herbst as a deep sleeper fantasy pick this weekend at Kansas Speedway. 23XI Racing has had a ton of speed at this track overall in the Next Gen era, and Herbst has been able to salvage some respectable finishes at similar tracks this year. Last week at Texas, Herbst survived the carnage […]

Casey Mize Heading To Injured List
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Casey Mize (hamstring) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 9. The right-hander was fantastic against the Colorado Rockies on Thursday.

Yordan Alvarez Not Swinging The Bat
Houston Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (hand) is reportedly feeling better, but isn't ready to swing the bat yet, according to manager Joe Espada.

Will Smith Gets Night Off On Saturday
Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith will head to the bench ahead of Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This appears to be a routine rest day for Smith who has started each of the first two games of this series. As a result, Smith will take the night off and Austin Barnes will do […]

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. Resting On Saturday
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr. is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Gurriel came up with a clutch hit on Friday when he blasted a game-tying grand slam and totaled five RBI in the loss. The right-handed slugger has played in 12 straight games, so he'll […]

Mike Trout Begins Swinging The Bat
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (knee) appears to be progressing from a bone bruise that landed him on the injured list roughly a week ago. The superstar outfielder has been reportedly swinging the bat without any issues. The organization is hopeful that Trout can begin running next week. It sounds like Trout no longer […]

Jorge Soler Remains Out On Saturday
Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jorge Soler (groin) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The right-handed slugger will miss his second game in a row after being scratched ahead of Friday's game due to what is being viewed as a minor groin issue. The organization is hopeful that […]

Ian Happ Absent On Saturday
Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ (oblique) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the New York Mets. Happ reportedly felt something in his oblique following his first plate appearance on Friday. The switch-hitter stayed in the game, but will get Saturday night off as a precaution. It wouldn't be shocking to […]
