Rory McIlroy will tee it up for the first time since his third-place finish at The Open Championship.

DeVonta Smith Day-To-Day With Groin Injury

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith (groin) sat out practice last Thursday and has now been described as day-to-day by head coach Nick Sirianni. Smith had a fantastic rookie season, finishing with 64 receptions for 916 yards and five touchdowns. Smith's stock took a hit when the team traded for A.J. Brown, but he still […]

Jalen Hurts To Receive First Preseason Action

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts led his team to the playoffs last year and is expected to take a big leap in 2022. Hurts possesses exceptional athleticism, which makes him dangerous as a dual-threat quarterback, but he has received a lot of criticism regarding his skill set as a passer. Hurts received an exciting new […]

Gunnar Groen Looking Solid In Affiliated Ball

Arizona Diamondbacks minor league pitcher Gunnar Groen is a very interesting player. Already 25 years old, he didn't appear in affiliated ball until the Diamondbacks purchased his contract in June this year. He's also a U.K. export, though he played his college ball at Pepperdine. In his final collegiate season, he struggled to the tune […]

Axel Sanchez Producing Runs In Single-A

Seattle Mariners shortstop prospect Axel Sanchez signed with the club out of the Dominican Republic back in 2019. He has emerged as a promising young ballplayer, and it appears that he's on the cusp of being recognized by most baseball prospect lists as one of his club's most noteworthy minor leaguers. Definitely a glove-first player, […]

Samuel Strickland Bounces Back In Huge Way

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Samuel Strickland was selected in the 19th round of the 2021 draft. The Samford product was a left-hander with upside, but at his draft slot, he certainly wasn't a big name. So far, it seems like the Braves might have found a promising prospect with their late-round choice. Strickland has posted […]

Heriberto Hernandez Clobbering Homers In Minors

Tampa Bay Rays outfiield prospect Heriberto Hernandez was already 18 years old when he signed a cheap $10,000 deal with the Rangers in 2017. Since then, he has been dealt to the Rays and emerged as one of the club's better prospects. Originally a catcher, Hernandez now covers the corner outfield positions while also filling […]

Cade Povich Dominates In First Start With New Club

Baltimore Orioles new pitching prospect Cade Povich was arguably the centerpiece of last week's trade that saw big-league closer Jorge Lopez dealt from the Orioles to the Twins. The southpaw has a mid-90s fastball that figures to increase a few ticks as he rises through the minors. He also throws a decent changeup, slider, and […]

Trevor Lawrence, Travis Etienne Jr. Expected To Play On Friday

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence and running back Travis Etienne Jr. are both expected to take part in Friday's preseason game against the Cleveland Browns. Head coach Doug Pederson said he will let the starters play in a couple of series. Neither of them participated in the Hall-of-Fame game last Thursday, so this will be […]

Yonathan Perlaza Swinging Hot Bat In Minors

Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Yonathan Perlaza, who signed out of Venezuela in 2015 when he was just 16 years old, has climbed his way to Double-A but still remains a big question mark in the Cubs system. Just last year, folks were doubting his power, but he has now clobbered 34 dingers over his last […]

Courtland Sutton Working Through Shoulder Issue

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (shoulder) received a massive quarterback upgrade during the offseason when the Broncos traded for Russell Wilson. Sutton and teammate Jerry Jeudy are expected to form an exciting tandem this season. Sutton had his foot evaluated in practice on Sunday and was reported to have "a little shoulder thing we're […]

D.J. Chark: 2022 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper and Undervalued Wide Receiver
