Mike Williams On Track To Play In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (hip) is on track to play in the Week 1 matchup against the Washington Football Team.

Antonio Gibson In For Large Workload Week 1?

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson should be getting a large workload in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers, in what should be a low-scoring affair between two stout defenses. The Chargers allowed the 15th-most rushing yards per game in 2020, so Gibson has a fairly promising outlook for this matchup. Washington's elite […]

Terry McLaurin Faces Tough Matchup In Week 1

Washington Football Team wide receiver Terry McLaurin will have his work cut out for him in a Week 1 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The return of Derwin James gives the Chargers a huge boost to their secondary after they allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards per game in 2020. McLaurin will likely draw the […]

Jonathan Arauz Homers Again Monday

Boston Red Sox infielder Jonathan Arauz hit his third home run of the season Monday, going 1-for-5 with two runs scored in an 11-10 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. Arauz has gotten plenty of playing time filling in for Kike Hernandez and Xander Bogaerts while they've been out with COVID, but he stands to […]

Chris Sale Victimized By Bad Defense

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale only lasted 3 2/3 innings Monday, allowing five runs (one earned) on 10 hits and one walk. He struck out six batters. The Boston defense made three errors in this game, contributing to a high pitch count and abbreviated outing for Sale. Fantasy managers can disregard this outing, […]

Logan Thomas In For Tough Matchup Week 1

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas has a tough matchup in Week 1 as he goes up against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers have a stout defense that allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards per game last season, and that was without Derwin James. The return of their elite safety could mean that Thomas […]

Kyle Finnegan Earns Two-Inning Relief Win

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Kyle Finnegan earned the win in relief Monday, throwing the eighth and ninth innings in a 4-3 victory over the New York Mets.

Yusei Kikuchi Knocked Out In Second Inning

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi was knocked out in the second inning of Monday's game against the Houston Astros. He allowed six runs (four earned) on three hits and four walks in 1 2/3 innings. Kikuchi was the victim of some suspect defense, but it was his own lack of command that did him […]

Sam Darnold Poised For Revenge Against Jets

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold gets a juicy matchup against his former team, the New York Jets, in Week 1 of the 2021 season.

Jimmy Lambert To Start On Tuesday

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Jimmy Lambert will take the mound against the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday. He has not been reliable this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't use him as a streaming option. Lambert has allowed eight runs over eight innings this season. The White Sox rotation is banged up right now, so they […]

Yohel Pozo Continues Impressing

Texas Rangers catcher Yohel Pozo has been reliable with the bat since joining the big league roster. On Monday, he went 2-for-4 with two singles in the 4-0 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. The 24-year-old is slashing .264/.291/.340 in his 53 at-bats with the Rangers this season. He is a catcher by trade, but […]

Jose Trevino Puts Together Two-Hit Game

Texas Rangers catcher Jose Trevino finally found his groove at the plate during Monday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. He went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in the 4-0 victory. Despite his two-hit performance, Trevino is hitting .234/.262/.331 with the Rangers this season. He doesn't offer much upside with the bat and […]

Matt Bush To Resume Throwing Soon

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Matt Bush (elbow) is scheduled to begin throwing again soon. The veteran reliever has been sidelined since early April due to a flexor strain in his pitching arm. Bush has only thrown three innings for the Rangers this season and he struggled during those outings. Let's face facts, the Rangers aren't […]

A.J. Alexy Looks Outstanding Versus Angels

Texas Rangers starting pitcher A.J. Alexy made his second career start versus the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. He went six innings, one hit allowed, zero earned runs, two walks, and seven strikeouts in the 4-0 victory. Alexy has thrown 11 shutout innings since joining the Rangers rotation. He'll get a tough assignment next time […]

Dane Dunning Begins Throwing

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Dane Dunning was able to throw 23 pitches during a live batting practice on Monday. Dunning along with Mike Foltynewicz and Drew Anderson are working their way back after testing positive for COVID-19. It sounds like Dunning might be the closest to returning out of the trio. The hope is that […]

Kevin Gausman Earns 13th Win Of Season Monday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander had another hitless game with a strikeout in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Royals. The 26-year-old has struggled to produce all season long but has just two hits so far in the month of September. He had been a useful fantasy option over the past several seasons, so 2021 has […]

Cedric Mullins Hits Another Home Run Monday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins continued to produce at the plate in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Royals, going 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run. Mullins jumped on a fifth-inning Kris Bubic off-speed pitch, putting into the right-center seats for his 26th HR of the season and his second in the last […]
