Elic Ayomanor - 2025 Fantasy Football Rookie Draft Sleepers and Values
DRAFT PICK: 4th Round (#136 Overall Pick) TEAM: Tennessee Titans ROOKIE DRAFT ANALYSIS: After adding its quarterback of the future, Cam Ward, Tennessee needed to add weapons, given that its receiver room was very thin behind veterans Calvin Ridley and Tyler Lockett. In the fourth round, the Titans selected Chimere Dike out of Florida and […]

Garrett Mitchell to Undergo Shoulder Surgery
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Garrett Mitchell (shoulder) will undergo surgery on his ailing left shoulder on Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. His timeline to return is unclear, but Brewers manager Pat Murphy is hopeful that Mitchell will be able to play again this season. The 26-year-old originally landed on the 10-day injured list on April […]

Forrest Whitley Designated for Assignment
The Tampa Bay Rays announced that they have designated right-hander Forrest Whitley for assignment and recalled lefty Joe Rock from Triple-A Durham. This is the second DFA of the year for Whitley, formerly a standout prospect with the Houston Astros. After almost nine years in their organization, the Astros jettisoned Whitley from their 40-man roster […]

Will Wagner Recalled, Alan Roden Optioned
The Toronto Blue Jays have recalled infielder Will Wagner from Triple-A Buffalo and optioned outfielder Alan Roden, the team announced. The 26-year-old Wagner is returning to the majors after spending two months in the minors. The Blue Jays demoted him April 29 after he batted a non-threatening .186/.284/.220 with no home runs in 68 plate […]

Casey Schmitt Scratched on Saturday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Casey Schmitt (wrist) was a late scratch from Saturday's lineup against the Chicago White Sox. The Giants initially had Schmitt penciled in to start at third and bat fifth, but they'll instead use Christian Koss at the hot corner and lead him off against White Sox starter Adrian Houser. Schmitt […]

Hunter Goodman Sitting Again on Saturday
Colorado Rockies catcher/designated hitter Hunter Goodman (hamstring) will miss his third straight game on Saturday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Goodman hasn't played since Wednesday because of hamstring tightness. The hope is that it won't require a stint on the injured list, as Goodman has emerged as a terrific option for both the Rockies and fantasy […]

Luis Robert Jr. Remains Out on Saturday
Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) is not in Saturday's lineup against San Francisco Giants left-hander Robbie Ray. Robert hasn't played since leaving early in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks with tightness in his hamstring. It's unknown whether he'll require a trip to the injured list. For now, the White Sox […]

Jose Ramirez in Guardians Lineup on Saturday
Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez (forearm) is in Saturday's lineup and hitting third against St. Louis Cardinals starter Miles Mikolas. Ramirez left the Guardians' 6-0 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays early on Thursday after taking a Kevin Gausman fastball off the right forearm. After sitting out Friday's 5-0 loss to the Cardinals, he's […]

Don't Expect Kyle Larson to Win First Drafting Track Race on Saturday
Kyle Larson has never won a drafting track race in his NASCAR Cup Series career, nor did he win at Atlanta in the years it was a regular intermediate track. It seems likely that he will win a drafting race at some point, but tonight will probably not be that race. Although he starts 11th […]

Christopher Bell Unlikely to Complete Atlanta Sweep
Although Christopher Bell qualified 28th at Atlanta on Friday, he started even worse in the February race here before winning it via a last-lap pass, so don't discount the idea that he might be able to duplicate that feat. What makes that less likely this time is that his hot streak of three wins in […]

Brad Keselowski Seeks Another Clutch Win for Hail-Mary Playoff Bid
Since Brad Keselowski knows he must win to advance to the playoffs and he probably won't have winning speed anywhere but Atlanta or Daytona, he is likely to go all in on both those tracks in a hail-mary attempt to make the playoffs. Starting him is a big risk since he qualified sixth and therefore […]

Chris Buescher Unlikely to Lead Enough to Have Much DFS Value
Although Chris Buescher has unexpectedly been the fastest qualifier this year, he surprisingly only qualified 13th at Atlanta where his Ford stablemates swept the top eight positions in qualifying. This gives him a bit of upside since he is more consistent than most of the Fords who outqualified him so he is far more likely […]

Alex Bowman Qualifies Best Among Non-Fords but Unlikely to Contend at Atlanta
Chase Briscoe's win at Pocono last weekend put Alex Bowman on the playoff bubble, which means Bowman might be desperate to make something happen at Atlanta on Saturday to lock himself into the playoffs. The problem is that despite all his Daytona 500 front-row starts, as well as the fact that he was the fastest […]

Ryan Preece Will Probably Run Better Than Usual at Atlanta
Fifth-place Atlanta starter Ryan Preece does not have a good record here, but that doesn't really matter too much when evaluating him since he typically has run better almost everywhere this year than he ever has before. Although Preece has only led three laps and has never finished better than 16th here, he does have […]

Austin Dillon Consistently Mediocre at Atlanta
The good thing about Austin Dillon's record at Atlanta is that he has been consistent as he has only crashed out of two races (both in 2022) and has finished between 16th and 22nd in all five races since. The bad thing is that he's never remotely been competitive either in the Gen 6 era […]
