Mac Jones A Low-End QB2 Versus Saints

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones has put together a fairly slow start to begin his NFL career. He has one passing touchdown and didn't surpass 200 yards against a horrendous Jets secondary in Week 2. His chances of throwing a touchdown won't get easier against the New Orleans Saints in Week 3. Last season, […]

Kolten Wong Good To Go On Thursday

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Kolten Wong (hamstring) is slotted into his usual leadoff spot for Thursday's game against his former team, the St. Louis Cardinals. Wong was removed from Wednesday's game in the seventh inning due to hamstring tightness. Brewers manager Craig Counsell stated after the game that the team would take a cautious approach […]

Chris Sale Improves To 5-0 In Win Over Mets

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale improved his record to 5-0 Wednesday, earning the win in a 12-5 victory over the New York Mets by allowing two runs on six hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out eight batters. Sale has looked to be in top form in his seven starts […]

German Marquez Coughs Up Five Runs On Wednesday

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez took a no-decision on Wednesday when he allowed five runs on six hits with four walks and four strikeouts in a 10-5 win over the Dodgers. This wasn't a good start for Marquez, who lacked control and efficiency. He managed to make it through three-inning without allowing a run […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Not Worried About Brandon Aiyuk

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo isn't worried about wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk's slow start (one catch for six yards in two games) this season. "Honestly, he does a great job in practice every day. He brings it — right attitude, right mindset," Garoppolo said. "I think, honestly, it's just a matter of time. And […]

Jose Iglesias Scores Twice, Drives In Two Wednesday

Boston Red Sox infielder Jose Iglesias has taken command of the second base position, and he went 1-for-3 with a triple, a walk, two RBI, and two runs scored Wednesday against the New York Mets in a 12-5 win. Iglesias is playing every day at the keystone, although his value takes a hit batting ninth […]

Avisail Garcia Out Of The Lineup On Thursday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Avisail Garcia is absent from the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Adam Wainwright and the St. Louis Cardinals. Tyrone Taylor is getting the start in right field and batting sixth in the game. Garcia recently became eligible for a mutual option this offseason by hitting a required plate appearance threshold over […]

Kyle Schwarber Homers Twice In Monster Game

Boston Red Sox outfielder Kyle Schwarber posted a monster line in Wednesday's 12-5 victory over the New York Mets, going 3-for-5 with two homers, a double, four RBI, and four runs scored. Schwarber now has 31 homers on the year, and he's especially victimized the Mets, going deep nine times in his last 10 games […]

Brett Hundley An Option For Colts In Week 3?

Indianapolis Colts practice-squad quarterback Brett Hundley took the majority of the starter's repetitions in practice on Wednesday, and he and Jacob Eason could both see action in Week 3 against the Tennessee Titans with Carson Wentz (ankles) unlikely to be able to play. There is still hope that Wentz can play, but the Colts are […]

Tanner Rainey Earns First Save Wednesday

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Tanner Rainey earned his first save of the year Wednesday, setting down both batters he faced against the Miami Marlins. Rainey has made three appearances since being recalled from Triple-A Rochester, and he has not allowed a baserunner. He struck out all six he faced in the two outings prior to […]

Josiah Gray Earns First Career Win

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Josiah Gray earned the first win of his young career Wednesday, throwing six innings and allowing two runs on six hits and a walk against the Miami Marlins. He struck out eight batters. Gray has shown plenty of potential this year, but this start comes on the heels of four straight […]

Mike Gesicki Could See Uptick In Value

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki produced zero receptions in the season opener, but he hauled in three passes last week. The young tight end was a focal point of their offense last season, so he should get his targets. Backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett is making the start versus the Las Vegas Raiders in Week […]

Colts Preparing As If Carson Wentz Won't Play

The Indianapolis Colts are approaching a big divisional game against the Tennessee Titans in Week 3 as if quarterback Carson Wentz (ankles) won't play after he sprained both of his ankles in the Week 2 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Wentz didn't practice on Wednesday, but more importantly, he didn't even take part in […]

Juan Soto Homers, Reaches Five Times

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto reached base in all five of his plate appearances Wednesday, going 3-for-3 with a home run, a double, two walks (one intentional), three RBI, and two runs scored. Soto now has an eight-game hitting streak, and he's raised his OPS to 1.010 on the year to go with his 27 […]

Jaylen Waddle Could See Decreased Role

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has seen at least five or more targets in each of the first two games this season. However, multiple things have changed over the course of a week. Backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett will draw the start versus the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. Also, wide receiver Will Fuller […]

Luis Garcia Hits Sixth Homer Against Athletics

Washington Nationals infielder Luis Garcia had two more hits Wednesday, going 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a double in a 4-1 win over the Oakland Athletics. He now has six homers for the season, three of which have come since September 9, and three multi-hit performances in a row. He's slashing .333/.333/.542 over […]

Amari Cooper Limited To Start The Week

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (ribs) will be limited in practice on Thursday ahead of the team's Monday night meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 3. Cooper didn't miss many snaps in the Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but he did suffer a bruised rib in the contest and had […]

Yadiel Hernandez Knocks Ninth Homer

Washington Nationals outfielder Yadiel Hernandez knocked his ninth home run of the year Wednesday, going 2-for-5 with the solo shot, a double, two RBI, and a run scored. Hernandez has played nearly every day since the trade deadline, and he's in a valuable lineup spot for RBI batting fifth behind Juan Soto and Josh Bell […]

Tyrell Williams Lands On Injured Reserve

The Detroit Lions placed wide receiver Tyrell Williams (concussion) on Injured Reserve on Thursday and placed kicker Austin Seibert on the COVID-19 list. They also officially signed inside linebacker Josh Woods from the Chicago Bears practice squad. Williams suffered a head injury in the season-opener and did not play in the Week 2 loss to […]

DeVante Parker A Low-End Flex Option For Week 3

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker has seen 16 targets over the first two games of the season. He has been significantly involved in the gameplan, but that could change in Week 3. Backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett will be under center for this game against the Las Vegas Raiders. It's also worth noting that Will […]

Will Fuller Back To Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller (personal) was back on the practice field on Wednesday. This was expected after Fuller returned to the team facility on Monday. It looks very likely that Fuller is going to make his team debut in Week 3 versus the Las Vegas Raiders. Sadly, he'll face backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett […]

Jarred Kelenic Walks Twice, Steals A Base

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jarred Kelenic went 0-for-2 with two walks against the Oakland Athletics Wednesday, adding a stolen base. He now has six for the season. Though he still has a .606 OPS in 302 at-bats, he's started to turn his year around in a big way with a .269/.367/.673 slash line, five homers, and […]

Kyle Seager Homers, Reaches 100 RBI

Seattle Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager had a big day Wednesday against the Oakland Athletics, going 3-for-5 with a solo home run and a double. He now has 35 homers and 100 RBI this season, making him one of just five players to reach those marks thus far this year. He's slashing .379/.419/.655 over his […]

Malcolm Brown Unlikely To Be Trustworthy

Miami Dolphins running back Malcolm Brown was expected to have a significant role in this offense coming into the season. Thus far, Brown has disappointed and Myles Gaskin has been the clear No. 1 back in this offense. In Week 2, Brown saw just five touches in the blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills. Possibly, […]

Ty France Homers, Scores Twice Wednesday

Seattle Mariners infielder Ty France hit his 17th home run of the season in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Oakland Athletics. He went 2-for-4 with two runs scored. France is slashing .423/.516/.615 in 26 at-bats over his last seven games. He's clearly been the best hitter in the Seattle lineup, if not the biggest run-producer […]

Myles Gaskin A Risky Flex Play

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin has been a fine flex option in PPR formats through two weeks. However, things could get more difficult for him against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. Last season, the Raiders allowed the third-most rushing touchdowns to opposing running backs. However, the Dolphins will be operating with backup […]

Drew Steckenrider Saves 11th Game

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Drew Steckenrider saved his 11th game of the season Wednesday, throwing a scoreless inning with one hit allowed and one strikeout against the Oakland Athletics. Steckenrider was filling in for Paul Sewald, who had thrown in three straight games, but Steckenrider now has the upper hand in total saves. There's no […]

Jacoby Brissett Not On Streaming Radar

Miami Dolphins quarterback Jacoby Brissett will draw the start against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3. Second-year quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) will miss at least this game and possibly more time. In the meantime, Brissett will be asked to run the Dolphins offense that just got shutout by the Buffalo Bills in Week 2. […]

Chris Flexen Earns 13th Win Wednesday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Chris Flexen earned his 13th win of the season Wednesday night, going seven innings and allowing one run on three hits and two walks while striking out eight batters against the Oakland Athletics in a 4-1 victory. Flexen has a 2.93 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in 43 innings over his last […]

Jack Eichel To Begin Season On Injured Reserve

Buffalo Sabres forward Jack Eichel (neck) has been placed on Injured Reserve as his team opened training camp on Thursday. The 24-year-old was also stripped of his captain label after failing his training camp physical, an expected outcome given his publicized disagreement with Sabres management on how to deal with the herniated disc in his […]
