Eduardo Escobar Goes Yard Twice In Win Over Cleveland

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Eduardo Escobar went 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in Friday's 10-3 win over Cleveland. The infielder went yard off Cleveland starter Eli Morgan in the fifth inning and reliever Sam Hentges in the sixth. Escobar has homered three times in his last two games after failing to go yard for […]

Adrian Houser Records Ninth Win Against Cleveland

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Adrian Houser (9-6) earned the win Friday over Cleveland. He allowed two unearned runs on a hit and five walks with five strikeouts in six innings. This is the second time in his last five starts he's allowed more walks than hits, but he's been fairly effective in that stretch. Houser […]

Max Muncy Launches 32nd Homer

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy connected for his 32nd homer during a 3-0 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday. The two-time All-Star took Padres starting pitcher Joe Musgrove deep for a two-run blast during the third inning. Muncy has rebounded after a tough 2020 campaign, posting 32 HR, 81 RBI, 84 R, […]

Javier Baez Drives In Two In Mets Win

New York Mets shortstop/second baseman Javier Baez went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored in the Mets 10-3 win over the Yankees on Friday. Báez remains red-hot at the plate with a ridiculous .500/.556/.833 slash line to go with two home runs and six RBI over his last seven games (24 […]

Corey LaJoie Long Shot Chance at Top 15 Result

Corey LaJoie has shown over the past several weeks that he can achieve some decent place differential. Since Pocono that has been the case and LaJoie's gained 10, 17, and 10 positions respectively in the past three races he has finished. That was despite a late crash at Daytona. The No. 7 car could thrive […]

Chris Buescher One to Look at Even at Richmond

Chris Buscher technically has consecutive top ten results currently. He was disqualified at Daytona while running second. Those silly manifold spoiler differences can be a problem. That being said, the No. 17 car has finished in the top 20 nine of the past ten races now. The Roush-Fenway Racing driver does have top-16 upside with […]

Julio Urias Goes Seven Scoreless, Wins 17th Game

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias spun seven scoreless innings during a 3-0 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday. The 24-year-old was brilliant, allowing three hits and a walk while striking out seven across 94 pitches. The left-hander earned his major league-leading 17th win and has a 2.98 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and […]

Austin Dillon Looking Better As Richmond Approaches

Austin Dillon was in contention before the crash two weeks ago at Daytona then he responded with a top ten at Darlington. Dillon has been mostly pretty consistent result-wise this year. His average finish is actually near 15th. He just will not lead you laps as the driver has never led more than seven laps […]

Ross Chastain Could Build off Darlington Momentum

Ross Chastain was excellent at Darlington last week as he finished third. Do not overlook the driver at Richmond. He did finish 15th at the 3/4 mile track in the Spring. The Chip Ganassi Racing driver had a little more speed than expected late on the run at Darlington also. The No. 42 could definitely […]

Michael McDowell Not Expected to Do Well at Richmond

Michael McDowell qualified for the playoff chase mostly on the virtue of a few top-ten finishes and that win at the Daytona 500. The last eight races have seen the No. 34 car end up outside the top 20 every single time. He has three DNF's in his previous four races too. The last time […]

Jake Cronenworth Fractures Finger

San Diego Padres infielder Jake Cronenworth (finger) has been diagnosed with a small fracture on his left ring finger, according to manager Jayce Tingler. The 27-year-old was hit in the left hand by a changeup from Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias in the top of the third inning on Friday. The injury could […]

Kyle Busch Feels the Heat at Richmond

Kyle Busch did get fined $50,000 for his actions post-accident at Darlington. That crash put him in a bind as Richmond beckons. He finished eighth in the Spring race. Overall, the past three seasons have seen the Joe Gibbs Racing driver excel on this track. He is the only one to win twice while finishing […]

A.J. Brown Good To Go For Week 1

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee) is good to go for the regular-season opener against the Arizona Cardinals. He doesn't have an injury designation heading into Week 1 and is all systems go for Sunday. "I am going to be good to go on Sunday," said Brown. The 24-year-old underwent surgeries on both knees […]

William Byron All or Nothing at Richmond

If William Byron can stay on the track, he should fare well at Richmond. He has crashed out in three of his previous five races. That has put him in a hole for the playoff chase. Also, he has finished second and sixth in the races he did not finish. The No. 24 car has […]

Chase Elliott to Rebound at Richmond

Chase Elliott crashed out of the Darlington race with 40 laps to go. That has left him some work as he tries to qualify for the round of 12. The Hendricks Motorsports Racing driver did finish fifth in last year's summer race and looked better speed and downforce-wise compared to the Spring race. Three years […]

Josh Reynolds Questionable For Week 1

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Josh Reynolds (foot) is questionable for the regular-season opener against the Arizona Cardinals. He was limited in practice throughout the week and is expected to be a game-time decision for Sunday. The 26-year-old is in line to be the Titans WR3 behind A.J. Brown and Julio Jones. Reynolds is someone to […]

Alex Bowman Might Surprise Again at Richmond

Alex Bowman pulled off a coup at Richmond as he led all the Hendricks Motorsports Racing drivers and won the Spring race. Few expected it and Bowman only led ten laps along with the final ones that mattered. Bowman is truly hit or miss at Richmond though. He has just two top-ten finishes in his […]

Tyler Reddick Risky Choice at Richmond

Tyler Reddick, like Christopher Bell, only has two races at the top NASCAR level. One was an 11th place finish while the Spring race produced only a 20th-place result. Reddick and his Richard Childress Racing car ended up two laps down. He just did not have the line or speed in the late stages at […]

Christopher Bell Short Track Contender at Richmond

Christopher Bell is the Joe Gibbs Racing driver that often gets forgotten on short tracks like Richmond. The Spring race saw him start in 8th and finish in 4th. Bell only has two races worth of experience at the top level. However, the No. 20 looked very much like a veteran in his last race […]

Ryan Blaney Tries Brad Keselowski Build Again at Richmond

Ryan Blaney fully embraced the Keselowski build during the Spring race at Richmond. Blaney finished ninth on the track. It was the only top ten of his career on the course. It was a vital result for the Team Penske driver who had literally everything go wrong last year. He was one of the first […]

Brad Keselowski Needs Good Result at Richmond

Brad Keselowski has ended up in the top ten seven out of the last nine races at Richmond. The problem is this year has been a bit of a struggle at times. Keselowski finished just 14th at Richmond and crashed at Martinsville. Those are two tracks where he does pretty well. The "Keselowski" build has […]

Eric Fisher Ruled Out For Week 1

Indianapolis Colts offensive lineman Eric Fisher (Achilles) has been ruled out for the regular-season opener against the Seattle Seahawks. The Colts are being cautious with their star tackle as he works his way back from an Achilles injury he sustained in the 2020 postseason. His absence from the o-line only hurts QB Carson Wentz and […]

Joey Logano Hopes to Continue Momentum at Richmond

Joey Logano managed to stay on the lead lap, avoid crashes, and finish eighth at Darlington last weekend. The Team Penske driver finished third in the Spring at Richmond while leading 49 laps. Logano tends to lead a decent chunk of races on the 3/4 mile track. Overall, the past three seasons have seen Logano […]

Kevin Harvick Expects More from Car at Richmond

Kevin Harvick has gotten more out of his Stewart-Haas Racing car than most could have expected. Another top five at Darlington last week helped his "playoff chase" hopes. Richmond is another track where Harvick typically performs well. Harvick enjoys an 8.17 average finish and five top-ten results in his last six races. Most are surprised […]

Kurt Busch May Slide Back Some at Richmond

Kurt Busch once had some very good runs on this track but has not in some time. He has finished 11th or worse in his last six races on the short Richmond course. The Chip Ganassi Racing driver may even lead a few laps but this may be one of those races where the long-run […]
