Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (head) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. He suffered a head contusion and finished with five assists in 11 minutes of action. It's uncertain if this injury is going to force him to miss more time than just this game. Saben Lee should benefit […]

Bobby Dalbec Homers In Spring Opener

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Thursday's spring opener against the Minnesota Twins. It was a nice start to the spring for Dalbec who is expected to shift between second base, outfield, and first base during camp to gain some versatility. Dalbec could be a solid […]

Ameer Abdullah Signs With Raiders

Las Vegas Raiders have agreed to terms with free-agent running back Ameer Abdullah. The details on the deal haven't been released, but it'll likely be a one-year deal. This isn't a huge move for the Raiders, but gives the team depth at running back. Abdullah has been primarily a backup through his last four seasons. […]

Colin Moran Signs With Reds

The Cincinnati Reds and infielder Colin Moran have agreed to a one-year deal, according to the Cincinnati Reds. Not exactly the consolation Reds fans were hoping for after trading away Jesse Winker, Eugenio Suarez, and Sonny Gray earlier this week. Moran posted a .258/.334/.390 slash line with 10 home runs across 318 at-bats in 2021 […]

Damien Williams Joins Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons have signed free-agent running back Damien Williams. The veteran back will get a one-year deal and a chance at legitimate playing time in Atlanta. Cordarrelle Patterson is still a free agent, so currently Williams moves into the No. 1 back spot in the weak Falcons' backfield. The 29-year-old should easily jump Mike […]

Mychal Givens Signs With Cubs

The Chicago Cubs and reliever Mychal Givens have agreed to a one-year deal worth $5 million, according to Jesse Rogers. Givens should help a Cubs' bullpen that posted a 4.31 ERA in 2021.

Alexander Edler Expected To Return Thursday Vs. Sharks

Los Angeles Kings defenseman Alexander Edler (lower body) is expected back in the lineup Thursday as his team hosts the San Jose Sharks. The 35-year-old blueliner has been sidelined since December 11 when he sustained an injury against the Minnesota Wild. Edler has just 11 points (one goal, 10 assists) through 26 games played this […]

Elias Petterson Expected Back Thursday Vs. Red Wings

Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson (upper body) is probable to return on Thursday as his team hosts the Detroit Red Wings. The 23-year-old center has missed two games with an upper-body injury, but head coach Bruce Boudreau told reporters the injury isn't serious and the young Swede can be considered day-to-day. Pettersson is third on […]

Zemgus Girgensons Expected To Play Thursday Vs. Oilers

Buffalo Sabres forward Zemgus Girgensons (lower body) is expected back in the lineup on Thursday as his team visits the Edmonton Oilers. The 28-year-old winger missed the entire 2020-21 season after having hamstring surgery and now hasn't played since January 25 because of a lingering lower-body injury. When he's healthy enough to play, Girgensons has […]

Danilo Gallinari Might Sit Out On Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (biceps) is considered a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Gallinari was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game. This is not good news with John Collins (finger/foot) already sidelined. The Hawks could be forced to play small ball and use De'Andre Hunter at power forward on […]

Andrew Copp Expected To Return Friday Vs. Bruins

Winnipeg Jets forward Andrew Copp (upper body) is expected back in the lineup on Friday against the visiting Boston Bruins. The 27-year-old center was hit in the head during Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the St. Louis Blues and then held out of Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday for precautionary […]

Isaiah Jackson Won't Play Friday

Indiana Pacers center Isaiah Jackson (head) won't play during Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is a tough blow with Goga Bitadze (foot) uncertain to play as well. Jackson heads into concussion protocol, so he could very well miss multiple games. In the meantime, Jalen Smith could be looking at significant playing time. He […]

Jake Allen Projected To Start Vs. Stars

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jake Allen (lower body) is expected to start on Thursday as his team hosts the Dallas Stars. Allen has been sidelined since January 12 when he was injured during a loss to the Boston Bruins. The 31-year-old netminder is having a rough season in general, going 5-16-0 with a 3.15 goals-against average […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Won't Play Thursday

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was originally listed as questionable, but the team has decided to sit Carter. Moritz Wagner could slide into the starting five, while Mo Bamba gets a higher volume. Between the two, Bamba has more upside in […]

Patrice Bergeron Out At Least One More Game

Boston Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron (upper body) is expected to be out at least one more game, head coach Bruce Cassidy told the media. Cassidy said the 36-year-old center is dealing with a lingering injury that is at risk of getting injected and that the ailment is not related to Bergeron falling awkwardly in a […]

Spencer Torkelson, Riley Greene Won't Be Held Back

According to Detroit Tigers general manager Al Avila, the team's top two prospects, first baseman Spencer Torkelson and outfielder Riley Greene, will not be kept in the minors in order to save money for the franchise. Avila explained that the team will decide its Opening Day roster solely by determining which players help build the […]

P.J. Tucker Uncertain For Friday

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was able to play 32 minutes during Tuesday's game. Although, Tucker has been dealing with left knee pain for quite some time now. There's a decent chance that the Heat decide to give Tucker the night […]

Jimmy Butler Could Miss Friday's Game

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Butler wasn't able to suit up for Thursday's practice due to a right ankle sprain. Gabe Vincent would likely slide into the starting five, assuming Butler is unable to play. However, Max Strus is the better fantasy […]

Hunter Greene To Make Spring Debut On Monday

Cincinnati Reds pitching prospect Hunter Greene is set to make his Spring Training debut on Monday against the Chicago Cubs in a bullpen role. The 22-year-old is entering his first Spring Training with the big league club. He's regarded as the team's top overall prospect by many sources and in all likelihood he will make […]

Dean Wade Won't Play Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This marks the third game in a row that Wade has missed due to right knee soreness. His absence should keep Lamar Stevens in the starting lineup for right now. However, Stevens hasn't made much of an impact […]

Rajon Rondo Won't Play On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Rajon Rondo (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The loss of Rondo shouldn't have a huge impact on the rotation with Darius Garland healthy. Brandon Goodwin should remain the backup to Garland until Rondo is ready to return. Goodwin doesn't have much upside in fantasy formats […]

Ryan Tepera Signs Two-Year Deal With Angels

The Los Angeles Angels have signed relief pitcher Ryan Tepera to a two-year deal worth $14 million. The 34-year-old split the 2021 season with the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox.

Fletcher Cox Released By The Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles have released veteran defensive tackle Fletcher Cox. The move was made with a post-June 1 designation.
