Michael Thomas To Start Year On PUP List

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) is expected to hit the physically unable to perform list to start the year as he recovers from ankle surgery. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that this will sideline Thomas for the first six weeks of the season, meaning that he'll miss at least the team's first five […]

Chris Flexen Grinds Into Sixth Inning

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Chris Flexen didn't have his best stuff against the Houston Astros Monday, but he still found a way to make it 5 2/3 innings. He allowed two runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out four. He did not factor into the decision. Flexen has become a very consistent […]

Corbin Burnes Fires Six Shutout Innings In Victory Over Giants

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Corbin Burnes (9-4) allowed one earned run on four hits while striking out nine across six innings, earning the win over the Giants on Monday. Burnes fired six stellar shutout innings before allowing a leadoff double in the seventh inning. Brad Boxberger relieved him and the runner that Burnes was responsible […]

Dylan Moore Hits Pinch-Hit Home Run

Seattle Mariners second baseman Dylan Moore came on as a pinch-hitter against the Houston Astros Monday, and immediately launched a two-run home run, his 11th of the season. This is Moore's second home run this season off of Brooks Raley, after a go-ahead grand slam just prior to the trade deadline. Moore now has a […]

Jose Marmolejos Homers In First At-Bat Back

Seattle Mariners first baseman/outfielder Jose Marmolejos got the start against the Houston Astros Monday, and he homered in his first at-bat. He went 1-for-3 in the game before being replaced with a pinch-hitter. It appears as though Marmolejos will play against right-handed pitching, giving him the larger side of a platoon role. With 4 homers […]

Falcons Cut Caleb Huntley, D'Onta Foreman

Atlanta Falcons running backs Caleb Huntley and D'Onta Foreman did not make the team's 53-man roster. Both Huntley and Foreman were competing for depth spots behind starter Mike Davis, though the Falcons chose to go with Cordarrelle Patterson and Qadree Ollison to fill out the roster. The likely scenario is that Davis, who handled 17.4 […]

Josh Hader Records Save 28 Against Giants

Milwaukee Brewers closer Josh Hader allowed one hit in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Monday against the Giants. Hader allowed a leadoff double to Kris Bryant but retired the next three batters to finish the game. He has not allowed a run in his last 10 appearances and he has seven saves […]

Jace Peterson Reaches Base Four Times In Win

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Jace Peterson went 3-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Monday's 3-1 win over the Giants. Peterson scored the second run of the game when Corbin Burnes drove him in in the second inning. In addition, he added a ground-rule double in the eighth. It was the […]

Christian Yelich Doubles And Scores Run Against Giants

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich went 1-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 3-1 win over San Francisco. Yelich doubled in the first inning, then scored the first run of the game on a single by Omar Narvaez. After scuffling for the majority of the season, he is batting .308 in August […]

D'Andre Swift - Worth the Gamble?

Today's fantasy football profile will take a look at second-year running back D'Andre Swift of the Detroit Lions by looking at his positives, his concerns, and a variety of other important information in determining his fantasy outlook for 2021. Swift has been a difficult player to assess because of the injuries last season and throughout […]

Giancarlo Stanton Homers For Ninth Time In August

New York Yankees designated hitter/outfielder Giancarlo Stanton went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and an RBI single in Monday's loss to the Angels. Stanton's homer was a tape-measure shot, one that traveled 457 feet at a whopping 115.2 MPH. It's his ninth homer of August and the fifth time he's left the years in the […]

Cowboys Will "Begin Exploring" Cam Newton

The Dallas Cowboys will reportedly "begin exploring" free agent quarterback Cam Newton. Newton was just released by the New England Patriots on Tuesday morning, while the Cowboys released both Garrett Gilbert and Ben DiNucci, leaving them with just Cooper Rush on the depth chart behind starter Dak Prescott. Given that Prescott is recovering from an […]

Brandin Cooks (WR, HOU) - 2021 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~85 Overall (PPR) CURRENT ADP: ~106 ANALYSIS: Cooks is the ultimate trailblazer. He played three years for the Saints, one for the Pats, two for the Rams, and last season, he donned Texans threads for the first time in his career. He barely misses time (three games in the past six seasons) […]

Austin Ekeler - The RB King Of Pass-Catching

Today's fantasy football profile will take a look at running back Austin Ekeler of the Los Angeles Chargers by looking at his positives, his concerns, and a variety of other important information in determining his fantasy outlook for 2021. Ekeler is a player who is pretty polarizing in the fantasy community because he doesn't have the […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (8/31/21): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

Big night of WNBA action on Tuesday, as we've got four games on the docket. Chicago vs. Phoenix to close the night is the big one, but plenty of intrigue in the early games as well, including the Sun facing the Mystics in what should be a good one. In this article, I'll be providing […]

Cooper Kupp (WR, LAR) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~60 ANALYSIS: Cooper Kupp is one of this year’s premier bounce-back candidates. He and the rest of the Rams’ offense will enjoy the upgrade to gunslinger Matthew Stafford from the worst version yet of dink-and-dunk king Jared Goff. The 28-year-old is also feeling fine after being slowed in 2020 by knee bursitis. Kupp caught 92 balls […]

Corey Kluber Allows Five Runs In Return

New York Yankees starting pitcher Corey Kluber struggled in his return to the rotation Monday against the Angels. Kluber pitched just four innings, surrendering five runs on five hits while walking a pair of batters. On the plus side, the veteran right-hander did strike out six batters and generated a strong 34 percent CSW. Kluber […]

Trey Lance (QB, SF) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~120 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~137 ANALYSIS: The San Fransisco 49ers gave up a ton of assets to move up to the third pick in the 2021 draft to select quarterback Trey Lance out of North Dakota State. There will be competition for the starting job between Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo, but it seems that the […]

Rashaad Penny (RB, SEA) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~145 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~164 ANALYSIS: When the Seattle Seahawks drafted running back Rashaad Penny in the first round of the 2018 draft, there were high expectations for the former San Diego State standout. Significant injuries and the emergence of Chris Carson led Penny to start off his career in a very underwhelming fashion. […]

David Johnson (RB, HOU) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~80 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~90 ANALYSIS: Not only did the Texans lose their starting QB with Deshaun Watson--not confirmed, but most probably--missing the whole 2021 season and probably getting traded, but they doubled down on that misery by signing two RBs to build a three-headed-monster backfield. To David Johnson, they added Phillip Lindsay and Mark Ingram […]

Zack Moss (RB, BUF) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~90 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~101 ANALYSIS: Bills Beat Writer for The Athletic, Joe Buscaglia, believes that "if he continues to improve, [Zack Moss] could be a 60 to 70 percent snap player in 2021." He only eclipsed a 60% snap share twice his rookie season, but that's likely a result of a […]

Kenyan Drake (RB, LV) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~90 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~103 ANALYSIS: Las Vegas has a promising tailback in Josh Jacobs. In both his freshman and sophomore seasons, Jacobs was able to finish at least as the RB21 and that happened in his first year as a pro. Last time out, though, Jacobs excelled to greater levels and put […]

David Sills V Released By The Giants

The New York Giants released wide receiver David Sills V on Tuesday. The 25-year-old had a strong preseason overall, catching seven passes for 94 yards and a touchdown over three games. Sills faced long odds making the Giants roster with a deep wide receiver corps that included Kenny Golladay, Darius Slayton, Sterling Shepard, Kadarius Toney, […]

James Conner (RB, ARI) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~93 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~103 ANALYSIS: Conner leaves Pittsburgh after spending the past four seasons there and coming virtually out of nowhere to turn into a fantastic tailback for the Steelers in years past. While he has not been the healthiest of players out there (he has missed 14 games in his […]

Antonio Brown (WR, TB) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~105 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~120 ANALYSIS: After joining Tampa Bay in 2020, Antonio Brown posted a 45-483-4 line over eight games. Doubling that puts his 2021 numbers at 90-966-8, plenty respectable for a fantasy 10th-rounder. OK, perhaps this simplistic projection shows why I never got past Algebra II in high school. Extrapolations […]

Cole Beasley (WR, BUF) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~130 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~144 ANALYSIS: Even with the addition of Emmanuel Sanders and with Gabriel Davis seemingly taking on a heavier role, PFF still projects Beasley to rack up the second-most PPR points in Buffalo, only behind Stefon Diggs with a 198+ FP projection. He hasn't had an ADP above 145 dating back to his debut all the […]

Cooper Rush Wins The Cowboys Backup Job

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush has won the Cowboys backup job. The team released both Garrett Gilbert and Ben DiNucci on Tuesday, leaving Rush as the only quarterback on the roster behind starter Dak Prescott. Prescott is coming off a severe ankle injury and dealt with shoulder issues throughout camp and the preseason, so the […]

Washington Releases Jonathan Williams

The Washington Football Team has released running back Jonathan Williams. The 27-year-old had just one carry for five yards in Detroit last year, and in 2019 he finished with 49 carries for 235 yards and one touchdown in Indianapolis. It is not shocking that Williams was cut, with much of the reasoning being the emergence […]
