Justin Herbert, Matthew Stafford, and Tom Brady occupied the […]

Jon Lester Allows Four Runs On Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jon Lester allowed four runs in five innings of work on Saturday against the Chicago Cubs. Lester gave up six hits and four walks while striking out four. He ended up with a no decision in a game the Cardinals ultimately lost. The veteran lefty will head into the postseason […]

Hi there, RotoBallers, and welcome back to Break The Slate! Before we dive into the Week 4 DraftKings slate, I wanted to take a minute to touch on the passing of a true giant in the fantasy football community, Mike Tagliere. If you follow fantasy football at all, then you're probably aware that "Tags" passed […]

Jesus Luzardo Strikes Out 11 On Saturday

Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo wrapped up his season with a strong start on Saturday, striking out 11 Phillies hitters in 5 1/3 innings of work. He allowed just one run on six hits without allowing a walk or a home run. While the 11 strikeouts, a career high, were certainly encouraging, perhaps […]

Buddy Howell Makes Active Roster For Week 4

Los Angeles Rams running back Buddy Howell was added to the active roster ahead of the Week 4 matchup against the visiting Cardinals. The 25-year-old also got the call-up and was in uniform in Week 3 against the defending champs. However, as expected, he didn't do much. He probably won't be involved against Arizona, at […]

Le'Veon Bell Officially Promoted To Active Roster

Baltimore Ravens running back Le'Veon Bell has officially been added to the active roster. Bell was signed after J.K. Dobbins (knee) and Gus Edwards (knee) were both lost for the year, and he has been a member of the practice squad since. The 29-year-old last played for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2020, finishing with […]

Jason Pierre-Paul Out Against Patriots

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Jason Pierre-Paul (shoulder, hand) did not travel to New England and will not play during the Sunday Night Football clash against the Patriots. Paul sat out in Week 3 as well, although he did practice fully on Friday, which would suggest he could make it back for the Week 5 contest […]

N'Keal Harry Activated Off Injured Reserve

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry (shoulder) was activated from the Injured Reserve list on Saturday. The move makes him eligible to play for the Sunday Night Football matchup against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and it will be his first appearance since sustaining a shoulder injury during the preseason. The 23-year-old […]

Mark Andrews Has Limited Upside Against Denver

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews will be entering the Week 4 contest in Denver fresh off his best showing of the season, finishing with five catches for 109 yards against the Detroit Lions. Still, while that type of production is encouraging, primarily since Andrews was virtually non-existent during his first two games of the […]

Sammy Watkins Draws Tough Matchup In Week 4

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Sammy Watkins has been a frequent option for signal-caller Lamar Jackson, currently sitting on 22 targets on the year. However, the veteran will have a tough task ahead against a capable Broncos defense in Week 4, so fantasy managers may want to consider other options in nearly all formats. Nonetheless, with […]

Marquise Brown Hoping To Forget Week 3 Performance

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown will look to put his previous outing behind him against the Broncos in Week 4. Hollywood struggled with drops in Week 3 against the Lions, and he finished by catching just three of his seven targets for 53 yards. Still, the 24-year-old has upside in deeper fantasy leagues and […]

Tanner Houck Pitches Five Perfect Innings On Saturday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Tanner Houck was perfect through five innings in his start against the Washington Nationals on Saturday. He retired each of the 15 batters he faced, striking out eight of them. He was pulled after throwing 53 pitches. Unfortunately, he got minimal run support and wound up with a no decision. […]

Walker Buehler To Start Dodgers Season Finale

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Walker Buehler will take the mound for the team's final game of the year against the Milwaukee Brewers. How deep he goes in the game may depend on whether the game is still relevant. If the Dodgers lose on Saturday, then the San Francisco Giants clinch the NL West. However, […]

Reiss Knehr To Start Padres Final Game

San Diego Padres pitcher Reiss Knehr has been named the team's starting pitcher for their final game of the year against the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. The 24-year-old has made four starts and seven relief appearances for the Padres this year. He's spent the bulk of the year in the minors, making 19 appearances […]

Joan Adon To Make His MLB Debut On Sunday

The Washington Nationals will promote pitching prospect Joan Adon prior to Sunday's game against the Boston Red Sox. He will get the start for Sunday's game, which will be his MLB debut. The 23-year-old right-hander is the team's 22nd ranked prospect on MLB Pipeline. He's spent the year pitching across three different minor league levels. […]

Willson Contreras Leaves With Hip Tightness On Saturday

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras (hip) was removed in the third inning of Saturday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals due to hip tightness. He was pulled from the game after drawing a walk. Erick Castillo came in to replace him behind the plate. While we don't know much about the severity of the injury, […]

Mariners Activate Reliever Andres Munoz

The Seattle Mariners activated relief pitcher Andres Munoz (arm) on Saturday. Fellow reliever Joe Smith was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move without an injury distinction given. The 22-year-old Munoz has been working his way back from Tommy John surgery last year. He's made four appearances in rehab outings this year and […]

Robert Gsellman Activated On Saturday

The New York Mets activated relief pitcher Robert Gsellman (lat) from the 60-day injured list on Saturday. Starting pitcher Tylor Megill was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Gsellman should get at least one appearance out of the bullpen this weekend. He was sidelined for over three months with a right lat strain. The […]

Mike Boone Out Again On Sunday

Denver Broncos running back Mike Boone (quadriceps) will miss Sunday's contest against the visiting Ravens. Boone is close to making it back, though, as he recently returned to practice throughout the week. However, his presence in the lineup won't make much difference, primarily with head coach Vic Fangio relying on the tag team of Melvin […]

Kyle Farmer Ruled Out For The Season

Cincinnati Reds shortstop Kyle Farmer (abdominal) will not play again this year, according to Reds manager David Bell. He is dealing with an abdominal strain that has held him out of two straight games. He won't partake in the team's final game of the year on Sunday either. The 31-year-old had the best season of […]

Stephen Strasburg To Begin Throwing In November

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (neck) is set to begin a throwing program on November 2, according to Nationals manager Davey Martinez. Strasburg underwent season-ending thoracic outlet surgery in late July. 2021 was an injury-plagued season for Strasburg, who had right shoulder inflammation earlier in the year, then suffered a neck strain that eventually […]

Andy Dalton Downgraded To Doubtful

Chicago Bears quarterback Andy Dalton (knee) is doubtful to suit up during the Week 4 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The veteran was limited during practice throughout the week as he continues to recover from a bone bruise in his knee. Nonetheless, there is a chance Dalton could return for the Week 5 showdown against […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling Officially Lands On Injured Reserve

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was officially placed on the Injured Reserve on Saturday. The latest development wasn't a surprise, primarily since he was already ruled out for the Week 4 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 26-year-old is currently ranked second on the team in targets and receiving yards, although he […]

Rowdy Tellez Activated And Starting On Saturday

The Milwaukee Brewers activated first baseman Rowdy Tellez (knee) from the 10-day injured list on Saturday. He is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, batting seventh. Infielder Keston Hiura was optioned to Triple-A to make room for Tellez.

John Gant Lands On Injured List With Groin Strain

The Minnesota Twins placed starting pitcher John Gant (groin) on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. He is dealing with a right mild groin strain. The team called up fellow pitcher Charlie Barnes from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Gant struggled in his last outing of the year on Friday, pitching four innings against the […]

Clayton Kershaw Placed On Injured List With Forearm Injury

The Los Angeles Dodgers placed starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw (forearm) on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. He is dealing with left forearm discomfort and might not be available to pitch at all in the postseason, regardless of how far the Dodgers make it. The Dodgers called up fellow pitcher Mitch White to fill Kershaw's […]

Justin Fields Will Start Against The Lions

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will start in Week 4 against the Lions. Veteran signal-caller Andy Dalton (knee) was initially labeled as a game-time decision but has since been downgraded to doubtful. As a result, the door is open for Fields to remain under center for the divisional matchup with Detroit. After the rookie had […]

Omar Narvaez On The Bench On Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Omar Narvaez isn't starting against the Los Angeles Dodgers and left-hander Julio Urias on Saturday night. The 29-year-old is hitting .268 with a .344 on-base percentage and 11 home runs in 442 plate appearances. He'll head to the bench with Manny Pina getting the start instead. Pina is batting eighth on Saturday. […]
