Tommy Edman Has Four Hits On Saturday
St. Louis Cardinals infielder/outfielder Tommy Edman was excellent at the plate on Saturday, going 4-for-6 with two RBI and two runs scored in a lopsided 13-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Edman had three singles and a double out of the leadoff spot in the Cardinals order and raised his batting average to .265 and […]

Adam Wainwright Brilliant Again On Saturday
St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright was excellent again on Saturday, picking up another win and another quality start. The veteran righty went seven innings, allowing three hits and a walk without letting a run cross the plate. He struck out five and threw 93 pitches, 66 for strikes. It's been an outstanding season […]

Jesus Sanchez Hits A Three-Run Blast On Saturday
Miami Marlins rookie outfielder Jesus Sanchez hit a huge three-run homer in the first inning of Saturday's eventual 6-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds. It was his only hit of the night, leaving him 1-for-4 with a run scored and three RBI. Sanchez has had an up-and-down season, but it's certainly a huge improvement over […]

Jorge Alfaro Drives In Three And Steals A Base
Miami Marlins catcher/outfielder Jorge Alfaro had another good game on Saturday, going 2-for-4 with a single, a double, a run scored, three RBI, and a stolen base. The three runs driven in gave him 29 on the year and the stolen base was his eighth. Alfaro is on a nice hot streak lately after being […]

Austin Dillon Had Playoff Spot Chance Then Crashed
Austin Dillon and his No. 3 car were running near the front all night at Daytona. The performance was noticeable and there was even a slight change Dillon could win. Close to the end, Dillon was starting to fade a bit but was still well in the top ten when disaster struck. The nine-car melee […]

Tyler Reddick Secures Fifth at Daytona, Makes Playoff
Tyler Reddick just had to stay out of trouble and the rest would take care of itself. He had an intense race with his own teammate Austin Dillon for the final playoff spot. In the end, Reddick was smart and composed. He not only avoided the wrecks but finished with a top-five result. The Richard […]

Sandy Alcantara Strikes Out A Dozen In Saturday's Win
Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara dazzled in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds. The Marlins ace pitched seven innings, allowing one run on six hits and a walk while striking out 12. Alcantara has been missing a lot more bats lately, and has really bounced back well from his atrocious outing against the […]

Ryan Newman Winds Up Third at Daytona on Saturday
Ryan Newman was awarded third on Saturday after the Coke Zero Sugar 400. Before Chris Buescher's disqualification, Newman was one of three Fords in the "top four" on Saturday night at Daytona. Those Fords were able to stay near the front and out of trouble. Newman even led a couple of laps during pit sequences. […]

Bubba Wallace Rewarded With Second Place at Daytona
Bubba Wallace thought he had a good car going into the race Saturday night and he was right. Wallace ran near the front for a majority of the 165 laps and finished third at Daytona. The 23XI Racing driver led eight laps and thought that was that. However, when Chris Buescher was disqualified, Wallace moved […]

Chris Buescher Disqualified After Coke Zero Sugar 400
Chris Buescher enjoyed a brilliant run on Saturday night and nearly won the Coke Zero Sugar 400. It was thought that he finished second right behind fellow Ford driver Ryan Blaney. Then, there was the post-race inspection. It turned out the Track Bar Mounting Assembly had something amiss by fractions of an inch. That violation […]

Ryan Blaney Survives Ending At Daytona to Win Again
Ryan Blaney does it again. The Team Penske driver held off Chris Buescher and Bubba Wallace to win the Coke Zero Sugar 400 on Saturday. There was a little of everything in this 160-lap race that went into overtime. Blaney only led seven laps but took the lead with two laps to go and never […]

Courtland Sutton Scores Touchdown In Return
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (knee) made his unofficial 2021 debut on Saturday during the preseason victory over the Los Angeles Rams.

Damien Williams’ Fantasy Stock Increasing
Chicago Bears running back Damien Williams continues to see his fantasy stock increase ahead of Week 1. With Tarik Cohen (knee) continuing to rehab after tearing his ACL early last season and in danger of missing even more time moving ahead, the 29-year-old could benefit by serving as the team's pass-catching option out of the […]

Tarik Cohen Still Without A Return Date
Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen (knee) remains on the PUP list and is in serious danger of missing the team's opener against the Los Angeles Rams in just a few weeks. Cohen continues to rehab after he tore his ACL during Week 3 of the 2020-21 campaign. Still, the uncertainty surrounding his availability is […]

Ty’Son Williams Could Make Active Roster
Baltimore Ravens running back Ty'Son Williams may have done enough this preseason to secure a roster spot moving ahead. The sophomore finished the team's exhibition against the Washington Football team with 42 yards off four attempts while adding a catch for negative yardage. Williams has been impressive during his second year in the league, and […]

Gus Edwards Finishes With 27 Yards
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards got a few touches on Saturday during the preseason win over the Washington Football Team, finishing with two carries for 27 yards. While he wasn't anticipated to get much work in this one, things may change dramatically during the regular season, primarily if J.K. Dobbins (knee) misses time moving […]

Kahale Warring Waived By Patriots
New England Patriots tight end Kahale Warring has been waived by the organization. He wasn't with the team for long at all. Warring was claimed off waivers from the Houston Texans on August 24. He is a former third round pick, but hasn't clicked at the professional level yet. The Pats added Warring as depth, […]

Xavier Jones Suffers Ankle Injury
Los Angeles Rams running back Xavier Jones (ankle) was injured during Saturday's preseason matchup against the Denver Broncos. The sophomore hurt his left ankle and was observed being examined on the sidelines, although he could put weight on it, which was ultimately a good sign. Nonetheless, after Cam Akers (Achilles) was lost for the remainder […]

Ozzie Albies Has Two-Hit Contest
Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies is a somewhat forgotten man in the lineup these days. The red-hot performances by Freddie Freeman and Austin Riley have headlined the Braves over the last few weeks. However, Albies has remained solid at the plate and showed what he can do on Saturday. He went 2-for-4 with two […]

Huascar Ynoa Posts Quality Start Versus Giants
Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Huascar Ynoa was fairly sharp during Saturday's contest versus the San Francisco Giants. He went six innings, three hits allowed, two earned runs, three walks, and three strikeouts in the 5-0 loss. The Braves offense didn't give him any run support, but fantasy managers should continue riding with Ynoa. He'll get […]

Giovani Bernard Likely To Have Noteworthy Role
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard could serve as the team's third-down option this season. Although Ronald Jones II and Leonard Fournette should continue to split carries, Bernard may get some looks from Tom Brady out of the backfield, similar to how James White was utilized during the multi-time MVP's time in New England. […]

Tyler Huntley Finishes With Five Touchdowns
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley helped guide the team to its 20th consecutive preseason victory on Saturday, an NFL record, finishing with five total touchdowns against the Washington Football Team. The signal-caller got the bulk of the work after Lamar Jackson briefly saw the field, and he seemingly cemented his status as the team's backup […]

Lane Thomas Doubles Twice More Saturday
Washington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas was once again at the top of the lineup Saturday, and he kept up his strong production, going 2-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI, and a run scored. Thomas has just 33 at-bats in 11 games as a National, but he's slashed .364/.462/.545 in that time with four doubles and […]

Lamar Jackson Makes Preseason Debut
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson got his first taste of preseason action during the win over Washington on Saturday, finishing with 29 yards while connecting on three of his four passing attempts. Although the team set an NFL record with its 20th consecutive exhibition victory, the feat was overshadowed by the injury to J.K. Dobbins […]

Alcides Escobar Has Three Hits And A Steal
Washington Nationals infielder Alcides Escobar continued his career resurrection Saturday against the New York Mets, going 3-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base. Now 34 years old, Escobar is batting in the two-hole for the Nationals on a daily basis, positioning him to score plenty of runs in front of Juan Soto and Josh […]

Sean Nolin Solid In Loss
Washington Nationals starting pitcher Sean Nolin should not be on your fantasy team. That said, he had his best outing of his young career Saturday, allowing two runs on six hits and no walks in 5 1/3 innings against the New York Mets. He struck out six batters and did not factor into the decision. […]

Adam Ottavino Reaches Double-Digit Saves
Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Adam Ottavino recorded a save for the second consecutive day Saturday, bringing him to 10 on the year. He allowed one hit and struck out one batter in two-thirds of an inning. In his last seven games, Ottavino has a 1.50 ERA, but has walked seven batters and recorded a […]
