Kenley Jansen Coming Off A Dreadful Month Of July

July was a month to forget for Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen. He converted just two of his five save opportunities in the month and posted an ugly 9.39 ERA over 7.2 innings.

Bobby Bradley Collects Two Hits Tuesday

Cleveland Indians first baseman Bobby Bradley went 2-for-4 with an RBI-double in Tuesday's 7-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. It is nice to hear from Bradley again as he is just 3-for-21 with one home run and three RBI over the previous two weeks. He showed a lot of power and promise when he […]

Cameron Davis Third Rounds Lately Offer Some Worry

Harris English Reasonable DFS Option at Memphis

Harris English did have an up and down tournament at The Open a few weeks ago. However, that 68 on Sunday may be a springboard for better things at TPC Southwind this week.
