Anthony Firkser Misses Open Portion of Practice

Tennessee Titans tight end Anthony Firkser was spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice but went inside before the open portion. There was no report of an injury for Firkser after Week 1, so perhaps this is just a rest day. However, fantasy managers should be concerned that, despite a positive game script, Firkser […]

Hank Lebioda Trending In The Wrong Direction

Hank Lebioda had a nice little run over the summer when he finished 13th, 51st, 17th, 31st, fifth, fourth and eighth in seven consecutive starts. Since then, however, Lebioda has missed back-to-back cuts. The Florida State product's hot streak always felt like it was unsustainable given how much he was relying on his putter. Lebioda […]

Shane Bieber Throws 47 Pitches In Rehab Start

Cleveland Guardians pitcher Shane Bieber (shoulder) allowed one earned run on three hits and a walk while striking out three across 2 2/3 innings in Tuesday's rehab start with Triple-A Columbus. He has been sidelined since mid-June with a strained right shoulder. The Guardians are out of the playoff race and won't rush their ace […]

Ready for some Thursday night NASCAR? The Camping World Truck Series heads to Bristol for the rare Thursday race. This is also the final race of the Round of 10, so two drivers will see their playoff hopes dashed by the end of this one. Here at RotoBaller, we want to help you make informed […]

Alex Verdugo Absent From Wednesday’s Lineup

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Seattle Mariners. He went 2-for-5 with a two-run shot in Tuesday's win. The 25-year-old will get the day off slashing .375/.360/.500 with six RBI over his last seven games. Fantasy managers with daily moves need to remove Verdugo from their lineups. Jose Iglesias […]

Marc Leishman Not Worth The Risk At Silverado

Marc Leishman is a proven winner who is certainly one of the more talented players in this field based on pedigree alone. With that being said, the Australian has struggled all season to find any semblance of consistent form, and while he has popped with top-fives at the Travelers, the Masters, and the Sony Open, […]

Mito Pereira Not Worth The Price Of Admission

Mito Pereira has become a trendy pick in golf circles this week, but buyer beware on the young Chilean. Pereira is being priced like he is a proven PGA Tour player, yet he has only recorded seven career starts on Tour, and he has missed the cut in four of them. There is no denying […]

Stephen Jaeger Could Impress At Silverado

While Stephen Jaeger has yet to become a household name, he is certainly one to watch in the 2021-2022 season. In 35 starts on the Korn Ferry Tour, he won twice and finished runner-up on four other occasions. He finished inside the Top 10 in one-third of his starts and won the regular-season points title. […]

Saquon Barkley Questionable Against Washington

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) was a limited practice participant this week and is listed as questionable for the Thursday night game against the Washington Football Team in Week 2. As far as we know, Barkley didn't have a setback this week, so he should be good to go on Thursday night […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Will Not Play In Week 2

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said that wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) will not play in Week 2 against the Houston Texans on Sunday. It will be Beckham's second straight missed game to start the year after he suffered a torn ACL last October. It's frustrating for Beckham's fantasy managers, but the Browns […]

Ricardo Allen Going On Injured Reserve

Cincinnati Bengals safety Ricardo Allen (hand, hamstring) is going on Injured Reserve and will miss at least three weeks with a broken hand and a hamstring strain, according to a source. The Bengals added veteran safety Sean Davis to their practice squad in a corresponding move. Allen spent the previous six seasons with the Atlanta […]

Cedrick Wilson An Option In Deeper Leagues In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cedrick Wilson could be a decent option in deeper league lineups for Week 2. Wilson will be taking the place of Michael Gallup (ankle) for at least the next few weeks. Gallup operated as the third wide receiver in Week 1, drawing seven targets before being forced to leave the game. […]

Joey Wendle Not In Lineup For Wednesday's Game

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Joey Wendle will take a seat on the bench for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays, according to MLB.com. Wendle has put up decent offensive numbers this season, slashing .274/.324./436 with 10 HRs and seven stolen bases over 122 games. He's a fine player to roster in many leagues, not […]

CeeDee Lamb Looks For Another Great Game In Week 2

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will look to build on a strong Week 1 in a Week 2 road game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Lamb was great in the first game of the season, seeing 15 targets, catching seven of them for 104 yards and a touchdown. He'll face a much tougher secondary […]

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 […]
