Fantasy Football Quarterbacks To Avoid in 2025

It is never too early to prepare for the upcoming fantasy football season.

Ross Chastain Picks Up Second-Place Finish

Ross Chastain's improved racecraft this year continued with yet another race where he turned a terrible qualifying result into a terrific finish. Chastain started 31st in yesterday's Wurth 400 and was a total nonfactor for the first two stages, but Trackhouse Racing has tended to have the best green flag pit strategy recently as Chastain […]

Bad Pit Strategy And Late-Race Crash Spoil Carson Hocevar's Top-10 Run

Although Carson Hocevar crashed out of Sunday's race at Texas, he actually had a good points day regardless and improved from 26 to 21 points behind the playoff cut line. After winning the pole, Hocevar led the first 22 laps until a caution came out for Noah Gragson's spin. Hocevar's team made the questionable move […]

Erik Jones Improbably Finishes Fifth Despite Speeding Penalty

One of the biggest surprises in Sunday's race at Texas was the speed of the Legacy Motor Club cars, which unexpectedly were the two highest-finishing Toyotas in the race.

Despite Crashing Out At Texas, Michael McDowell Surprisingly Fights For The Win

Michael McDowell is not particularly known for his prowess on intermediate tracks, as he has never finished better than sixth on a non-drafting intermediate, but he improbably had a strong chance to win Sunday's Texas race. Despite qualifying fifth, McDowell did not attract much notice since he was overshadowed by his teammate Carson Hocevar, but […]

Brilliant Pit Strategy Lifts John Hunter Nemechek To Eighth Place

Although the Legacy Motor Club cars have not had much speed in recent years at all, both Erik Jones and John Hunter Nemechek ended up scoring top-10 finishes by weaving their way through the carnage of numerous wrecks.

Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Smith went 4-for-5 with three singles and a triple in his team's 8-1 victory over the Mariners on Sunday. He added two runs scored and an RBI. Smith tormented the Mariners all game long, as the only time they could keep him off the bases was when he flied out to […]

Lance McCullers Jr. Lasts 3 2/3 Innings In Season Debut

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Chicago White Sox.

Ty Jerome Scores 21 Points Off The Bench On Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome had 21 Points in Sunday's loss to the Indiana Pacers. He added eight assists and one steal.

Garland may […]

Jarrett Allen Scores 12 Points In Game 1

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen had 12 points, five boards, and two steals in the loss to Indiana on Sunday night. Allen wasn't much of a factor offensively, although he did shoot an efficient 6-for-7 from the field. Darius Garland (toe) wasn't available for this one. However, there's a chance he could be back for […]

Emmanuel Clase Records Seventh Save

Cleveland Guardians relief pitcher Emmanuel Clase secured his seventh save of the season on Sunday in a 5-4 win over the Blue Jays. He allowed one unearned run on one hit and struck out one.

Indiana Pacers forward Pascal Siakam had 17 points, eight rebounds, and one steal in Sunday's win over the Cavs. While Tyrese Haliburton, Andrew Nembhard, Aaron Nesmith, and Myles Turner were also productive, Siakam did his part to help Indiana take the opening game of the series. The Cavs had trouble keeping up with the speedy […]
