Jason Day Remains A High-Risk, High-Reward Play

Jason Day remains a mixed bag of results. He has flashed rounds of brilliance with stellar iron play and a tidy short game that has always been a crutch to lean on during lackluster rounds. Day has also had a few recent rounds where he was not sure which direction the ball would fly off […]

Abraham Ancer A Fade At Southern Hills

Abraham Ancer will be a fade this week at the PGA Championship. The Mexican's game has not been sharp this year as he has failed to finish inside the top-20 in any event in 2022. The 31-year-old has last strokes around the green in six of his last seven events, a statistic that should be […]

Randy Arozarena Looking Better In May

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena has been among the more disappointing players for fantasy managers to start the season, but there have been some signs of improvement in the month of May. In 17 games since the calendar turned, Arozarena is slashing a decent .274/.313/.468 with two home runs and three steals. He's also […]

Still, fantasy managers have to be encouraged by the early returns for the righty, as […]

Tiger Woods May Struggle At PGA Championship

With very little statistics to go off, it is tough to predict how Tiger Woods will play when he tees it up for the second time this year. He made the cut at The Masters which is essentially his backyard as he has played well there so many times. He heads to Southern Hills where […]

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader recorded his 14th save of the season in a 1-0 victory over Atlanta on Monday, setting down all three batters he faced via the strikeout.

Adam Scott Hard To Trust At Southern Hills

Adam Scott makes for an interesting decision at the PGA Championship this week. On one hand, he's been putting extremely well, ranking top-ten in the field over his last 24 rounds. He is also a veteran who knows how to grind it out in tough conditions, similar to what it will take to win this […]

LaMonte Wade Jr. Remains Out Wednesday

San Francisco Giants outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr. (knee) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Colorado Rockies.
