Triston McKenzie Activated Off IL

According to the Cleveland Indians, Triston McKenzie (shoulder) has been activated off the 10-day IL. McKenzie has been activated and will start Thursday against the Kansas City Royals. He needs to be added in any leagues where he was dropped as he posted a 1.93 ERA with 28 strikeouts across 28 innings pitched in August.

Logan Allen Has Solid Night

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Logan Allen allowed three runs (two earned) across 6 2/3 innings pitched while striking out three in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Kansas City Royals. While this marks two consecutive quality starts for Allen since being called up from AAA last week, he is still not trustworthy enough to stream, even […]

Drew Rasmussen Throws Four Strong Innings

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Drew Rasmussen didn't walk anyone and allowed one earned run on three hits while striking out five across four innings during Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox. He did not factor into the decision. The 26-year-old limited Boston to one earned run and exited the game after 74 pitches. […]

Wander Franco Homers, Extends On-Base Streak to 32

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Wander Franco went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run during Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox. He blasted a two-run shot off Chris Sale in the third inning for the Rays only offense of the game. It was his seventh long ball of the season. The […]

College Football Betting Picks: Results Against The Spread (Week 0) and 9/3 spread picks

Week 0 means the week doesn't count, right? Overall, it wasn't that bad. After all, I didn't get one "week 0" pick right in 2019. I ended up going heaviest on the UTEP spread and under on Saturday morning. It's a good thing I did. Week 0 is a week for learning things, and learn […]

Viktor Hovland Worth A Look At Tour Championship

Viktor Hovland put up a respectable T17 finish last week at the BMW, and the reason for that, his greens in regulation percentage. Hovland hit 75% of greens last week, something he had not done since the WGC-Workday at The Concession in February. Hovland also putted better last week than he had in his previous […]

Adam Ottavino Saves 11th Game Wednesday

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Adam Ottavino saved his 11th game of the season Wednesday, setting down the three Tampa Bay Rays he faced in order with two strikeouts. With Matt Barnes removed from the closer role temporarily, and now out with COVID, Ottavino is the clear top option in the Boston bullpen. He should […]

Chris Sale Throws Quality Start Wednesday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale delivered a quality start against the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out three batters. The only runs came off the bat off Wander Franco, when he knocked a two-run homer in the third inning. Sale […]

J.A. Happ Gets Annihilated On Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher J.A. Happ was destroyed by the Cincinnati Reds in Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader. Happ got just three outs, pitching one inning while allowing seven runs on eight hits and two walks. He allowed two home runs and ballooned his already rough ERA all the way up to 6.20. The […]

Christian Vazquez Homers, Adds Three Hits Wednesday

Boston Red Sox catcher Christian Vazquez led the way to a 3-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday, going 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and a run scored. It's his sixth home run of the season, and his first since August 17. Before that, he hadn't homered since June 27. It's been […]

Paul Sewald Locks Down Four-Out Save Wednesday

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Paul Sewald locked down a four-out save against the Houston Astros Wednesday, striking out three batters and allowing two hits. He now has eight saves for the year to go with a 2.45 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and 79 strikeouts in 47 2/3 innings. Manager Scott Servais called him the team's MVP, […]

Cameron Smith Has Opportunity To Win FedEx Cup

Cameron Smith will start in the fifth position in the Tour Championship, five shots back of Patrick Cantlay at -10. Smith nearly won The Northern Trust, but a costly tee shot on the first playoff hole ruined those chances for Smith. Smith didn't have a great week at the BMW Championship but did enough to […]

Logan Gilbert Has His Best Stuff Tuesday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Logan Gilbert was on his game Tuesday, tossing five scoreless innings in a tough matchup against the Houston Astros. He gave up four hits and no walks and struck out four batters. He didn't factor into the decision. Still, it's an excellent bounce-back outing for Gilbert, who had given up 19 […]

The First Serve: DraftKings DFS Tennis Picks for 9/2/2021 (US Open Day 4)

I hope you caught my Tiafoe pick here at RotoBaller yesterday and that you had some success navigating a friendly Day 3 of the Open as it has smoothed out since Day 1. Today we will continue chipping […]

Jarred Kelenic Swipes A Bag Against Astros

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jarred Kelenic stole his fourth base of the season against the Houston Astros Wednesday. He went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts. The steal is a good reminder of the five-category potential Kelenic possesses, but he's now struck out eight times in this three-game series, and in half of his 28 at-bats over his […]

Shaquem Griffin Staying In Miami

Miami Dolphins linebacker Shaquem Griffin was one of the more surprising cuts on Tuesday. He was added to the team in July as linebacker depth. Griffin was mainly a special teams player in Seattle, but has decent upside. On Wednesday, he was brought back to the Dolphins on the practice squad. At least now, Miami […]

Marquez Callaway (WR, NO) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~90 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~110 ANALYSIS: Marquez Callaway finished his rookie season with only 21 receptions for 213 yards. However, he stepped up whenever his number was called. In his best game, he put up eight receptions for 85 yards on 10 targets. That could be a sign of things to come due […]

Antonio Williams Lands On Practice Squad

Buffalo Bills running back Antonio Williams failed to make the 53-man roster on Tuesday. He was released by the team, but brought back on the practice squad on Wednesday. Williams was a surprising cut because he does have some upside. The 23-year-old is unlikely to have a role in 2021. Both Devin Singletary and Zack […]

Kohei Arihara Looks Strong In Short Outing

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kohei Arihara was surprisingly strong on the mound against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday. He went 3 1/3 innings, one hit, one earned run, and three strikeouts in the 9-5 loss. He actually retired the first 10 batters he faced before allowing a solo home run to Brendan Rodgers. That was […]

Adbert Alzolay Records First Save

Chicago Cubs pitcher Adbert Alzolay tossed the final four innings of Tuesday's victory the Minnesota Twins to record his first career save. He allowed one hit, zero runs, zero hits and struck out five. Alzolay was activated earlier in the day from the 10-day injured list and was thrown straight into action. Manager David Ross […]

Joe Barlow Tagged For Five Runs

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Joe Barlow was unable to shut the door against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday. He wasn't even able to get through an inning before allowing five runs (two earned) with two walks in the 9-5 loss. It was partly Barlow's fault for walking two batters, but after that the Rangers defense […]
