Mekhi Sargent Expected To Be The Titans RB2

Tennessee Titans running back Mekhi Sargent is expected to be the backup behind undisputed starter Derrick Henry. "He was a decisive runner, he hit the hole, he tried to run through contact when somebody tried to tackle him," said general manager Jon Robinson. The Titans placed RB Darrynton Evans (knee) on the injured reserve earlier […]

German Marquez Allows Two Runs In No-Decision

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez took a no-decision on Saturday when he allowed four runs--two earned--on four hits with one walk and five strikeouts over five innings in a 7-6 win over the Atlanta Braves. Marquez didn't have his best game on Saturday but kept the Rockies in it as Ian Anderson struggled on […]

Leody Taveras Collects Two-Hit Game

Texas Rangers outfielder Leody Taveras has been given a chance to make his mark down the stretch of the season. He hit leadoff on Saturday and made the most of his chances. He went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in the 4-1 loss to the Los Angeles Angels. Since being recalled, Taveras […]

Kolby Allard Gives Acceptable Outing

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kolby Allard has not been a great option for the team during the second half of the season. Allard has struggled to keep the ball in the park and it was more of the same on Saturday. He went 5 2/3 innings, five hits allowed, three earned runs, one walk, and […]

Ozzie Albies Goes Deep Again

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies has returned with a fire lit under him. He was back in the lineup on Friday and homered in that contest. A day later, he goes 2-for-5 with a home run in the 7-6 loss to the Colorado Rockies on Saturday. The power numbers from Albies have been quiet […]

Ian Anderson Rocked On Saturday

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Ian Anderson was not on his best game during Saturday's contest against the Colorado Rockies. He went three innings, five hits allowed, four earned runs, and four walks in the 7-6 loss. Anderson clearly struggled with his control and two home runs hurt him as well. Despite the rough outing, Anderson […]

Brandon Nimmo Suffers Injury On Saturday

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. The lefty hitting outfielder injured his leg while running out a ground ball during the first game of Saturday's doubleheader. This is a significant blow to the Mets who are fighting for a playoff spot. Nimmo was an important part […]

Willy Adames Exits Due To Quad Issue

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Willy Adames (quad) was pulled out of Saturday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Adams recently has missed time due to a quad issue, but was in the lineup on Saturday. Sadly, he didn't last long and left due to quad discomfort, according to manager Craig Counsell. The organization has not given […]

Miguel Sano Leaves Early On Saturday

Minnesota Twins third baseman Miguel Sano (shoulder) was forced to exit early during Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The 28-year-old suffered a right shoulder contusion when colliding with catcher Mike Zunino. The Twins are calling the issue day-to-day, so fantasy managers will have to wait for more information. Honestly, Sano's power numbers are […]

Alex Dickerson Lands On Injured List

San Francisco Giants outfielder Alex Dickerson (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. He suffered a hamstring injury while running the bases on Friday. The organization has not given a timetable for his return. Mauricio Dubon has been recalled in a corresponding move. Dickerson wasn't offering much at the plate right now. He […]

Matt Peacock Optioned To Minors

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Matt Peacock has been optioned to the minors on Saturday. The 27-year-old wasn't pitching bad in the MLB, but it sounds like Arizona wanted a fresh arm. They recalled right-hander Humberto Castellanos for Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Peacock posted a 4.90 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 86 1/3 innings with […]

Justin Upton Remains Out Saturday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton (back) was not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Texas Rangers. He continues to deal with nagging injuries, which have hindered him all season long. Upton tried to play on Saturday, but back spasms stopped him from getting into the lineup. There really isn't much upside […]

AJ Pollock Exits Early On Saturday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock (undisclosed) was pulled out early during Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants. The veteran outfielder appears to have suffered an injury while diving into third base in the third inning. He limped off the field and the team has not given anymore details. The Dodgers are likely going […]

Keelan Cole Projected As Starter

New York Jets wide receiver Keelan Cole appears to have won a starting spot heading into the regular season. Cole has put together some respectable numbers with the Jacksonville Jaguars. It'll be interesting to see how he does with rookie Zach Wilson under center. The Jets have Elijah Moore, Braxton Berrios, and Denzel Mims, but […]

Tevin Coleman Projected As Starter

New York Jets running back Tevin Coleman is projected as the lead back on the depth chart. The veteran back appears to have the edge at the starting job heading into Week 1. However, that should be taken with a grain of salt since the team is going to use a committee approach at running […]

Blessuan Austin Cut By Jets

New York Jets defensive back Blessuan Austin was cut by the organization earlier this week. It was a bit of a shocking move to see Austin let go by the Jets. He started 11 games for New York last season. Austin recorded 63 tackles, four passes defended, and one fumble forced. Clearly, the 25-year-old didn't […]

Teoscar Hernandez Swats 24th Long Ball

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Teoscar Hernandez launched his 24th home run and 92nd RBI of the season on Saturday to help his team defeat the Athletics 10-8. His three-run shot off Jake Diekman in the seventh gave his club some much needed insurance at the time for his only hit of the ball game as […]

Tommy Sweeney Wins Backup Role

Buffalo Bills tight end Tommy Sweeney will be the No. 2 tight end option for the team heading into the season. He saw limited action during his rookie season in 2019. Sadly, he missed all of the 2020 season due to a heart condition. Sweeney outplayed Jacob Hollister in training camp and won the backup […]

Defense Rankings - Who to Target in Drafts

Drafting and starting the right fantasy football team defense every week can be a difference maker. Each year NFL defenses change a lot, and as the season progresses we see which units are more fantasy viable that others. With that comes a lot of defense streaming off the waiver wire, which can be both beneficial […]

Jose Berrios Notches 10th Win

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Jose Berrios picked up his 10th win of the season on Saturday as his club defeated the Athletics 10-8. The right-hander lasted 6 2/3 innings while giving up three runs on four hits, no walks, and seven strikeouts in the 103-pitch effort. He surrendered just two hits and a run […]

Jalen Hurd Could Miss Week 1

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jalen Hurd (knee) is in danger of missing the opener against the Detroit Lions. The 25-year-old is currently dealing with a sore knee, which stems from last season's torn ACL. With head coach Kyle Shanahan likely to limit the number of wideouts in uniform from week to week, Hurd could […]

Kickers Rankings - Who to Target in Drafts

The calls to abolish kickers in fantasy football seem to grow by the year, but most leagues continue to use them. They matter. If they matter to the games on Sunday, they should matter to fantasy football, as well. Are they random? Of course, they are. But isn't fantasy football in general? When Mecole Hardman […]

Saquon Barkley Still Uncertain About Week 1 Status

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) is still in jeopardy of missing the Week 1 opener against the Denver Broncos. Although Barkley has been making contact during recent practice sessions, which is a good sign, team medical staff will continue to take things slow with the former Nittany Lion. The 24-year-old hasn't played […]

Kyle Hendricks Continues To Struggle

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks had another rough outing on Saturday versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. The veteran only lasted 4 1/3 innings and allowed five hits, six runs, three walks and recorded just one strikeout. Hendricks was putting together another solid campaign, but had an awful month of August with a 7.81 ERA and […]

Frank Schwindel Stays Red Hot With Another Homer

Chicago Cubs first baseman Frank Schwindel continued his hot hitting in Saturday's victory versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. Schwindel went 3-for-5 with two RBI. His first RBI came on a solo home run in the bottom of the fifth inning and his second RBI came with a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth inning. […]

All-Bust Team: 2021 Fantasy Football

You may have already seen one or both iterations of my 2021 All-Sleeper Team. Now it's time to flip that coin around and see what's on the other side. Busts aren't as fun to read about as sleepers but it's just as important to know who not to draft. It's a bit harder to define what […]

Andrew Lalama's Bold Predictions

I love bold predictions articles because I hate chalk. Preseason ADP is never anywhere near accurate when predicting the season, yet many fantasy drafters have trouble differentiating from the consensus. Last year in this article I predicted big seasons for Jonathan Taylor, Diontae Johnson, Tee Higgins, and Justin Herbert. Following my advice would have also […]
