Antonio Gibson Good To Go For Thursday Night

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson (shoulder) is a full participant in practice on Wednesday and is no longer listed on the injury report for Thursday night's game against the division-rival New York Giants. Gibson was heavily utilized in the Week 1 season-opening loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, playing 65.5 percent of the […]

Juan Soto Reaches Four Times Yet Again

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto reached base four more times Tuesday, going 3-for-4 with an intentional walk and an RBI in an 8-2 victory over the Miami Marlins. He's now reached base four times in four of his last six games. He's the only batter in the major leagues with more walks than strikeouts, and […]

Amari Cooper A Solid WR1 Starter In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper is a solid WR1 option for Week 2 lineups. In Week 1, Cooper saw 16 targets, catching 13 of them for 139 and two touchdowns. He'll face a much tougher secondary in Week 2 against the Los Angeles Chargers, but the Cowboys have proven that they are not afraid […]

Alcides Escobar Drives In Two Tuesday

Washington Nationals shortstop Alcides Escobar drove in two runs with a double and a sacrifice fly against the Miami Marlins in an 8-2 win, going 1-for-4 on the day. Despite just a .691 OPS on the season, Escobar has racked up 41 runs scored and 20 RBI in 242 at-bats from the second spot in […]

Ji-Man Choi Out Of Lineup Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Ji-Man Choi is absent from Wednesday's lineup to take on the Toronto Blue Jays. Choi is slashing .242/.349/.434 with 10 HRs over 70 games, making him a good player in OBP leagues specifically. However, he's hitting just .203 with no home runs over 66 plate appearances against lefties, so with […]

Evan Engram Ruled Out For Second Straight Game

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf) has been ruled out for the second straight game for the Thursday night matchup with the Washington Football Team in Week 2. The Giants said that Engram is making some progress, but fantasy managers shouldn't have realistically been expecting him to play on a short week after […]

Lane Thomas Reaches Three Times Against Miami Tuesday

Washington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas reached base three times Tuesday, going 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs scored, and an RBI. He's slashing .301/.392/.524 with 20 runs and 17 RBI over his last 30 games, and fantasy managers simply cannot ignore his production any longer. Despite little pedigree, Thomas is having a major […]

Tony Pollard Not A Starting Option In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard is not a good starting option in Week 2 fantasy lineups. Pollard would shoot up into the RB2 ranks if starter Ezekiel Elliott were to miss time, but as things stand, he is little more than a change-of-pace option in the Dallas offense. In Week 1, Pollard received seven […]

Ryan Zimmerman Homers Against Miami Tuesday

Washington Nationals first baseman Ryan Zimmerman hit a prodigious home run to right-center field against the Miami Marlins Tuesday. It was his 14th homer of the season and his only hit in five at-bats. Zimmerman has slashed .297/.321/.604 against lefty pitching this year, making him a viable play on those days when Washington draws a […]

Keibert Ruiz Has Three-Hit Game

Washington Nationals catcher Keibert Ruiz had the first three-hit game of his career Tuesday, going 3-for-4 with a run scored against the Miami Marlins in an 8-2 victory. Ruiz only has eight hits in the first 44 at-bats of his young career, but he's showing signs that he could be a top-10 catcher as soon […]

Austin Meadows Not In Wednesday's Lineup

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Austin Meadows is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Robbie Ray and the Toronto Blue Jays. Meadows is slashing .232/.313/.454 with 25 HRs in 130 games but has just a .532 OPS off of lefties this season. With Meadows on the bench, Randy Arozarena will shift to left, […]

Erick Fedde Strikes Out Eight Marlins Tuesday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Erick Fedde had a strong showing against the Miami Marlins Tuesday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks in five innings of work with eight strikeouts. He was credited with the win, raising his record to 7-9. Despite this performance, Fedde should still not be an add down the […]

Geronimo Allison Added To Lions Practice Squad

The Detroit Lions signed wide receiver Geronimo Allison to their practice squad on Wednesday. The Lions are giving themselves a little receiving insurance after it was announced that No. 1 receiver Tyrell Williams was put in the league's concussion protocol after the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Detroit has one of the […]

Tyler Anderson Inefficient Tuesday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Tyler Anderson only allowed one run to the Boston Red Sox Tuesday, on a J.D. Martinez solo home run, but he could not complete five innings, exiting after 4 1/3 having given up four hits and two walks while striking out five. He took a no-decision. He's now failed to complete […]

Ezekiel Elliott Looks To Get Going In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott will look to get things going in a Week 2 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers defense was excellent in Week 1 while Elliott wasn't all that impressive against Tampa Bay. Still, Elliott figures to do better than his 11 carry, 33-yard opening night performance. Quarterback Dak […]

Nathan Eovaldi Continues Strong Stretch Tuesday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi was effective once again Tuesday, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and a walk in five innings against the Seattle Mariners. He struck out nine batters and took a no-decision in the 8-4 victory. Eovaldi hasn't allowed more than three earned runs in a start since […]

Luis Garcia Gets Day Off Wednesday

Washington Nationals second baseman Luis Garcia is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Miami Marlins, according to MLB.com. It's a rare day off for the rookie, who has started the past 18 days. Garcia is slashing .231/.271/.407 with five home runs over 56 games. The power hasn't quite shown up yet after […]

Gabriel Davis Will Not Practice Wednesday

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis will not practice on Wednesday due to a "lower body injury," according to head coach Sean McDermott. Davis had a big day in the Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, catching two of five targets for 40 yards and a touchdown on 43 offensive snaps. It's unclear if […]

Dak Prescott Looking For A Strong Week 2 Performance

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is a fantasy QB1 every time he takes the field, even in a tough Week 2 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers defense showed up in Week 1 and had the third best fantasy performance against an opposing quarterback. There's a slight caveat to that though, as they […]

Alex Verdugo Adds Insurance Homer

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo added a home run Tuesday night, as he went 2-for-5 with the two-run shot. It's his 13th of the season. Verdugo batted eighth in this matchup against the Seattle Mariners, and while he doesn't have a great slate this week against a slew of left-handed starters, he's still slashing […]

Adam Shaheen Coming Off COVID-19 List

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said that tight end Adam Shaheen will be back at practice on Wednesday after coming off the COVID-19 list. Shaheen was inactive in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots, but he should make his 2021 season debut in Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills, and he […]

Kyle Schwarber Clears Bases As Pinch-Hitter

Boston Red Sox outfielder Kyle Schwarber did not start against the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday with lefty Tyler Anderson was on the mound, but he came on as a pinch-hitter with the bases loaded in the eighth inning and cleared the bases with a double. Schwarber has slashed just .143/.250/.190 in his last seven games, […]

Bobby Dalbec Goes Deep Again Tuesday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec continued his torrid stretch Tuesday night, going 1-for-3 with a solo home run, his 22nd of the season. Dalbec has a very favorable set of matchups this week, with five more left-handed starters scheduled to come his way. He's slashing .277/.323/.516 against lefties this year. Fantasy managers who […]

Jazz Chisholm Jr. Absent From Wednesday's Lineup

Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. will get a day off Wednesday against the Washington Nationals, according to MLB.com. The 23-year old rookie is slashing .250/.306/.425, but does provide power and speed with 15 HRs and 21 SBs in 107 games. Chisholm Jr. isn't a top fantasy second baseman but offers good value at […]

FanDuel MLB DFS Lineup Picks (9/15/21): Daily Fantasy Baseball Advice

We've got a 10-game Wednesday night slate and based on the pitching options available we should see plenty of offense. Nine of the 20 teams playing have an implied run total over five runs led by the Yankees at Camden Yards versus the hapless Orioles. Aside from New York, the White Sox, Dodgers, and Astros […]

Akiem Hicks Wants To Finish His Career In Chicago

Chicago Bears defensive tackle Akiem Hicks said he'll "do everything in my power" to stay with the team for the rest of his career, despite the Bears giving him permission to seek a trade in the offseason. The 31-year-old is in the final year of his deal and has a $10.4 million base salary and […]

J.D. Martinez Homers Against Mariners

Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez hit his 26th homer of the year Tuesday night, going 2-for-5 with two RBI against the Seattle Mariners in an 8-4 victory. Despite the occasional stretch of looking lost at the plate, Martinez has produced an .867 OPS with 85 runs and 91 RBI on the year. He's […]

Marcus Stroman Posts Another Quality Start On Tuesday

On Tuesday, New York Mets starting pitcher Marcus Stroman went six effective innings against the Cardinals, allowing only two earned runs on four hits and one walk, while striking out eight. Unfortunately, the Mets wasted Stroman's performance by losing 7-6 in 11 innings. Tuesday's performance was Stroman's second quality start in a row, and fifth […]
