Jon Rahm One Of The Favorites At Augusta

Jon Rahm comes into the first major championship of 2022 off a T9 at the WGC-Match Play a couple of weeks back. Rahm is very familiar with Augusta National, finishing inside the top-ten on three different occasions. Rahm will command a top-three DFS salary this week, and is worth it. Rahm has the ability to […]

Jorge Mateo Takes Batting Practice Wednesday

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Jorge Mateo (hand) took batting practice on Wednesday and should be fine for Opening Day on Friday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Mateo left the Grapefruit League game early on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays when he was hit on the right hand by a pitch. But the 26-year-old avoided structural […]

Jose Cisnero Goes On 60-Day Injured List

Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Jose Cisnero (shoulder) was placed on the 60-day injured list on Wednesday due to a right shoulder sprain. Pitchers Will Vest, Drew Hutchison, Jacob Barnes and Elvin Rodriguez have all made the Opening Day bullpen. Infielder Willi Castro will start the year at Triple-A. The injury troubles continue for Cisnero, whose 2021 […]

Tommy Fleetwood Still Searching For Premier Win

Tommy Fleetwood is still looking for his first big win in the States. The Englishman is coming off a solid swing in Florida where he posted top-22 finishes at the Valspar, The Players and the Arnold Palmer. The 31-year-old has made his last four cuts here at Augusta but has never finished better than T17. […]

Collin Morikawa Looks To Continue Success At Majors

Collin Morikawa heads to Augusta this week with two major championships in just eight major championship appearances. He will look to extend his win percentage to 33 this week at The Masters Tournament, where he's finished T18 and T44 in his previous two attempts. The California graduate is a little off his game recently, finishing […]

Brendan Rodgers Looks To Deliver On The Hype

Colorado Rockies shortstop Brendan Rodgers has long been considered a potential fantasy monster, but injuries and limited playing time have continually held him back. Now that incumbent Trevor Story has moved on, Rodgers will take over as the starter at short and look to build on a solid 2021 campaign that saw him slash .284/.328/.470 […]

Falcons Add Germain Ifedi

The Atlanta Falcons are signing free-agent offensive lineman Germain Ifedi to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, according to a source. The former Seattle Seahawks first-rounder will head to Atlanta after playing the last two seasons with the Chicago Bears. Ifedi spent the first four of his NFL seasons in Seattle, playing both right guard […]

Marcus Stroman Set For Strong Season

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Marcus Stroman enjoyed considerable success as a New York Met in 2021, posting a 3.02 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 33 starts and 179 innings. Now in Chicago, Stroman's durability may be his biggest strength in a season when a record-low number of pitchers appear poised to even approach a full […]

Taylor Stallworth Joins The Chiefs

Free-agent defensive lineman Taylor Stallworth signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs on Tuesday, according to his agent, Brett Tessler. Stallworth played in 32 games the last two seasons for the Indianapolis Colts, but he made just two starts and totaled 16 solo tackles (five for loss), 13 QB hits, 3.5 sacks, […]

Yasmani Grandal Set To Build On Career-Best .940 OPS

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal enjoyed an enigmatic 2021 season in which he slashed .240/.420/.520 with 23 home runs, 60 runs, and 62 RBI in 375 plate appearances over 93 games. His counting stats could have been much gaudier if not for suffering a torn tendon in his knee early in July. Despite the […]

Steelers To Visit With Desmond Ridder, Sam Howell

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been one of the most interested teams when it comes to quarterback draft prospects, and they'll visit with Cincinnati quarterback Desmond Ridder on Thursday and North Carolina quarterback Sam Howell on Friday. Pittsburgh has the 20th overall pick in the first round of the draft, and even though they signed Mitchell […]

Francesco Molinari Lacking Upside

Francesco Molinari heads back to Augusta for the 11th time. Ever since he squandered the lead on Sunday of the 2019 Masters, he has yet to record a top-five finish at any event around the world. He has a T42 as his best finish the last five times he has teed it up. The Italian's […]

Spencer Patton Optioned To Minors

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Spencer Patton won't make the Opening Day roster. This comes as a bit of a surprise since Patton pitched well out of the bullpen last season. The 34-year-old posted a 3.83 ERA with 48 strikeouts and two saves in 42 appearances with Texas. However, Patton was roughed up for four earned […]

Kevin Na A Safe Play At Augusta

Kevin Na will be playing in his 11th Masters and is looking to improve on his trio of T12 finishes over the last decade. Na led the tour in strokes gained around the green last season, with the rest of his stats all outside the top 50. He is one of the more polarizing players […]

Nomar Mazara Reassigned To Minors

San Diego Padres outfielder Nomar Mazara has been reassigned to Triple-A El Paso. The former top prospect had a chance at making the Opening Day roster. However, a poor performance in spring training has resulted in a trip to the minors. The sixth-year veteran once put together three straight seasons of 20 home runs with […]

Tylor Megill Likely To Start Opening Day

New York Mets starting pitcher Tylor Megill is expected to start on Opening Day versus the Washington Nationals. Max Scherzer (hamstring) is likely to start on Friday, while Chris Bassitt gets the nod on Saturday. However, there's a chance that Thursday's contest does get rained out. The 26-year-old was average with the Mets last season. […]

Gary Woodland A Tough Decision At Augusta

Gary Woodland has three top-10 finishes in his last five starts, gaining the majority of his strokes on approach. He has now strung together six consecutive starts where he has gained at least a quarter stroke per round with his irons. With impressive recent form, Woodland heads to Augusta, where he has yet to crack […]

Paul Casey Battling Back Spasms

Paul Casey (back) finished third at The Players Championship, improving his strokes gained in putting by nine strokes compared to his disappointing weekend at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. However, Casey's putter is the least of his concerns, as he is currently battling back spasms that forced him to withdraw from the Match Play two weeks […]

Adam Scott Looking For Second Masters Win

Adam Scott enters the week with impressive ball-striking numbers and a putter that has been a massive asset this season. He has gained over 0.25 strokes off the tee and over 0.5 on both approach and putting. However, the former Masters champion has been losing strokes around the green far too often to feel comfortable […]

Jaylen Hoard Delivers Enormous Double-Double In Victory

Oklahoma City Thunder power forward/center Jaylen Hoard produced an eye-popping 24-point, 21-rebound evening during Tuesday's win over Portland. Hoard had previously snagged 20 boards in his first career start Friday, but with the Thunder checking just seven players into the game, Hoard feasted on both ends of the floor. In addition to shooting 11-for-17 overall, […]

Justin Thomas In Tremendous Form

Justin Thomas has six top-10 finishes this season in 10 starts. He is gaining more total strokes so far than any of his other seven illustrious years on tour. The last time Thomas lost strokes on approach was in July of 2021. He is also having his best year off the tee, gaining 0.68 strokes […]

Indiana Waives Keifer Sykes

Indiana Pacers point guard Keifer Sykes was waived Wednesday morning as the team reconfigures its roster moving forward. The return of T.J. McConnell made carrying a multiplicity of point guards a fruitless proposition with just two games remaining in the year. Sykes started and dropped 16 points as recently as March 28, but his Pacers […]

Devin Booker Drops 32 Points In Just 30 Minutes Of Action

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker returned from a one-game rest sabbatical to pour in 32 points on 12-for-22 shooting across 30 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Lakers. There has been nothing resembling coasting to the finish line for Booker, who tied his career high with six made threes. In addition to the scoring, […]

Kyrie Irving Drops Game-High 42 Points In Victory

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving had his entire offensive arsenal working during Tuesday's win over Houston, as he finished with 42 points on 13-for-24 shooting, including going 8-for-16 from behind the arc. The scoring output marked his highest for a regular-season game at Barclays Center since Jan. 31, 2020. In addition to the scoring, […]

Tyler Herro Drops Career-High 35 Points Off Bench

Miami Heat shooting guard Tyler Herro helped lead a historic three-point barrage in Tuesday's win over the Hornets. Herro knocked down six of Miami's franchise-record 23 triples, as one of the leading candidates for the Sixth Man of the Year finished with a career-best 35 points on 11-for-18 shooting overall. The outing marked the sixth […]

Tyrese Maxey Drills Career-High Eight Triples

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey found his stroke from long range during Tuesday's victory over the Pacers. Maxey knocked down a career-best eight threes, far and away exceeding his previous high of five triples. The performance marked his fifth time this year reaching the 30-point threshold, while he finished a supremely efficient 9-for-12 overall. […]

Nikola Jokic Compiles 41 Points, 17 Boards In Defeat Tuesday

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic exceeded the 40-point plateau for the third time this season in Tuesday's loss to the Spurs. Jokic has continued to be a one-man band for Denver's offense, as he finished with 41 points on 18-for-35 shooting, the most field-goal attempts of his career. As has become the trend with Jokic, […]

Stephen Strasburg Could Debut In Early May

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (neck) has been having his usual eventful offseason. His shoulder has reportedly fully recovered from thoracic outlet surgery, but he is still being eased back into things and he's dealing with a neck injury as well. Nationals GM Mike Rizzo was interviewed on the DC-based sports radio show The […]
