San Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers is on the bench on Tuesday for a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks and right-hander Zac Gallen. The Padres will start Fernando Tatis Jr., Trent Grisham, and Jurickson Profar from left to right in the outfield against Gallen. With Tatis Jr. now starting in the outfield full time, Myers' […]

Tommy Pham Isn't In Tuesday's Lineup

San Diego Padres outfielder Tommy Pham isn't in Tuesday's lineup. The Padres will take on right-handed starter Zac Gallen and the Arizona Diamondbacks but will do so with one of their best hitters on the bench. Pham is hitting .236 with a .349 on-base percentage, 13 home runs, and 13 stolen bases in 484 plate […]

Defense (DST) Draft Sleepers for Fantasy Football

I think we often get the term "sleeper" confused. A lot of the rhetoric around "sleepers" seems to center on the long-shots who might hit big and bring you massive value something close to a late-round dart throw. However, I think "sleepers" are simply just players being "slept on" or not getting enough respect. Obviously, […]

The 2020 fantasy football season may be over, but it’s never too early to look ahead. The draft season for 2021 will be here before you know it, and one of the biggest questions will be who should be the number one pick? Here are my top-five choices (in order) and why they should or […]

Akil Baddoo Isn't Starting On Tuesday

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo isn't in the lineup on Tuesday for a matchup with the Oakland Athletics and left-handed starter Cole Irvin.

J.T. Realmuto Not In Starting Lineup Tuesday Versus Nats

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto (ankle) is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday, according to Todd Zolecki of MLB.com. Zolecki added that Realmuto is available off the bench, but the team wants to test him more during pregame warmups before getting the All-Star backstop back in the lineup. Realmuto fouled a ball off his […]

Darryl Johnson Traded To Panthers

Buffalo Bills defensive end Darryl Johnson has been traded to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a sixth-round pick. It sounds like there were multiple teams that were interested in the young pass rusher. In two seasons, Johnson recorded 29 tackles and two sacks through 29 games, but zero starts with the Bills. The 24-year-old […]

Antonio Williams Fails To Make Final Roster

Buffalo Bills running back Antonio Williams was unable to make the final roster cut on Tuesday. The 23-year-old back will now attempt to sign elsewhere before the season begins. Honestly, Williams never really had a shot at getting carries in Buffalo. Devin Singletary and Zack Moss are going to split up the workload. Matt Breida […]

Harris English Could Struggle at Tour Championship

Harris English plays golf like a yo-yo. He can be so great at times and then just be so-so too many others. The past two weeks have been the case of the so-so's. English just could not make enough birdies at two more wide-open tournaments. By the time, the American got going last week, it […]

Steven Sims Doesn't Make Final Cut

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Steven Sims joined the organization roughly a week ago. However, he won't be sticking around in Buffalo for long. The 24-year-old was unable to make the final 53-man roster. Instead, it sounds like Isaiah McKenzie, Jake Kumerow, Marquez Stevenson will fill out the rest of the depth chart. Sims might land […]

Elieser Hernandez Throws Five Solid Innings On Tuesday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Elieser Hernandez pitched well on Tuesday in the completion of a suspended game from April. Hernandez got the "start" and pitched the first five innings, allowing just one run on five hits and a walk with four strikeouts. He threw 83 pitches, 56 for strikes. Hernandez is still ramping up after […]

Jason Kokrak Might Be Factor at Tour Championship

Jason Kokrak played better as the week went on at the BMW Championship. The 65-66 weekend turned around a poor start and resulted in a top-15 finish for the American. When that putter is working for Kokrak, he can get on a roll. The only problem was last week everyone was making putts all four […]

Jacob Hollister Released By Bills

Buffalo Bills tight end Jacob Hollister was released by the organization as they finalize their 53-man roster. He was battling for the starting tight end spot in Buffalo, but now has failed to make the team. Dawson Knox is expected to remain the starter, while Tommy Sweeney should be the No. 2 option. It sounds […]

Jordan Spieth Could Turn it Around at Tour Championship

The last couple of weeks have been rough for Jordan Spieth but hope springs eternal at Atlanta. This week's Tour Championship could reinvigorate Spieth at the right time. He did have a final-round 66 on Sunday to turn around what had been another dreadful week of missed opportunities. Errant iron shots and below-average putting have […]

Jordan Howard Released By The Eagles

Running back Jordan Howard was released by the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday. That leaves the Eagles with Miles Sanders, Boston Scott, and rookie Kenny Gainwell as the only running backs on the roster. Howard was thought to be competing for the fourth spot on the depth chart, but it appears the Eagles have decided to […]

Scottie Scheffler Contending at Tour Championship Possible

Scottie Scheffler played a solid final three rounds at the BMW Championship. That first round 73 was a dagger to any hopes of contending, however. The five birdies in the final round were much more encouraging. Arguably, some better putting may have netted him a few more. On the other hand, that may be being […]

Jalen Hurts Officially Confirmed As Starter

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was officially confirmed as the team's starter by coach Nick Sirianni. The new Eagles coach said, "Jalen is our starter. He has done a great job." The Eagles tried to pretend that backup Joe Flacco had a chance to actually jump Hurts on the depth chart this preseason, but no […]

Kevin Na In Solid Form As Tour Championship Beckons

Kevin Na has bounced back nicely from a brutal Spring stretch where he missed several cuts, most notably the U.S. Open and PGA Championship. Shots were going all over the place and his putting was constantly in the negative strokes realm. Things have changed over the last five weeks as Na has finished 23rd or […]

Saquon Barkley: Availability For Week 1 Not Decided

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) availability for the regular-season opener against the Denver Broncos has not been decided, per head coach Joe Judge. "There will be no decision on Saquon Barkley for the opener until next week," per Jordan Raaanan of ESPN. According to Judge, Barkley has a few more key practices […]

Pressure Might Get to Hideki Matsuyama at Tour Championship

Hideki Matsuyama nearly won a medal at the Tokyo Olympics and then finished tied for second at the FedEx-St. Jude. After that, there was this one nagging issue. His putting and ball striking were a little errant late in each tournament. Too many opportunities were missed and then he cracked. He could not make enough […]

Panthers Waive Rodney Smith

Carolina Panthers running back Rodney Smith (knee) was waived by the team Tuesday. Smith practiced for the first time in a couple of weeks, as he was sidelined due to a knee injury, though he was one of the final roster cuts the team made to get down to 53. The 25-year-old back was competing […]

Daniel Berger Questionable Choice at Tour Championship

Daniel Berger needed a final round 66 last week just to cement his spot in the Tour Championship. That Sunday got him a tied for 26th finish which allowed him to rank 26th in the Top 30. The American golfer is fifth in strokes gained approaching the green. Normally, he putts well enough but last […]

Evan Engram Uncertain For Week 1

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf) is uncertain to play in the regular-season opener against the Denver Broncos, per head coach Joe Judge. "There is some gray area on this one," said Judge. The Giants will continue to monitor the tight end throughout the week. Engram exited Sunday's preseason game versus the New […]

Xander Schauffele Not Recommended for Tour Championship

Xander Schauffele won the gold medal and then it seemed things got difficult. He finished outside the top-40 in two of the last three tournaments. Last week, while everyone was making birdies over the weekend, Schauffele shot above par at the BMW Championship. The Maryland golf course just played games with the American. He started […]

Jon'Vea Johnson Cut By Bears

Chicago Bears wide receiver Jon'Vea Johnson has been waived by the team. Johnson got off to a strong start during training camp and earned praise for his early connection with rookie Justin Fields. But drops plagued Johnson during preseason games and simply did not make enough plays to wrestle the last wide receiver spot away […]

Brooks Koepka Building Momentum for Tour Championship

The East Bay course may prove to Brooks Koepka's liking. Often, the best of the best brings out the best in golfers. Koepka is no exception. He slowly got better the past three weeks and nearly finished in the top-20 at the BMW Championship (22nd). The American golfer just could not string enough birdies together […]

Tom Kennedy Makes The Team

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tom Kennedy has made the final roster as the team begins to prepare for Week 1. Kennedy beat out players like Breshad Perriman and Geronimo Allison for the WR6 spot on the team. The 5'10" receiver impressed the coaching staff throughout training camp and led the team in receiving in two […]

Josh Reynolds Returns To Practice Tuesday

Tennessee Titans Josh Reynolds (Achilles) returned to practice on Tuesday. He reportedly was dealing with an Achilles injury and missed practice for most of last week. The 26-year-old is in line to be the Titans WR3 behind A.J. Brown and Julio Jones. Reynolds is someone to monitor in deep-league formats after hauling in 52 receptions […]

Trinity Benson Traded To Lions

The Detroit Lions have traded their fifth and seventh-round 2022 picks to the Broncos for wide receiver Trinity Benson. The Lions wide receivers room lacks depth and is largely unproven and the team is taking a chance on the 24-year-old speedster. The haul is pretty steep for an undrafted player who has played the last […]
