MLB Betting Picks for Monday 8/2 - Monday Mania!

Happy Monday RotoBallers! John, aka 'LucidMedia," back with you with our free picks on this fine Monday. We had a decent week last week, however, the White Sox continued to let us down. Fortunately, they're not on the slate today, and I have a few games I have my eyes on today, so let's get […]

Nico Collins Having Impressive Camp

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins continued his impressive training camp performance on Monday, catching a deep touchdown after getting past corner John Reid. Collins is expected to play a key role as an outside receiver for this Texans team, though how soon he plays that role is still unclear. It's probably safe to assume […]

Rodrigo Blankenship, Eddy Pineiro Competing For Starting Job

We have a kicker competition on our hands. The Colts have a pair of promising players competing for the starting job, with second-year kicker Rodrigo Blankenship trying to hold off Eddy Pineiro. Blankenship had a decorated college career at Georgia, then went 32-for-37 last season. But he was just 1-for-3 on kicks of at least […]

DeVante Parker Off PUP List, Preston Williams On COVID List

The Miami Dolphins have made a pair of moves at wide receiver, activating DeVante Parker (foot) off the Physically Unable To Perform list and placing Preston Williams on the COVID-19 list. For Parker, this move gets Miami's No. 1 receiver -- for now -- back in the mix as he works to build more rapport […]

Antonio Gibson Having No Issues With Turf Toe

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson had quite the impressive rookie season in 2020. He adjusted to the NFL with ease after playing in college mostly as a receiver. Gibson was limited by a turf toe injury that he suffered in week 13, which kept him out until week 16. Head coach Ron Rivera […]

Austin Riley Knocks In Lone Run On Sunday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Austin Riley was seemingly the only offense for this team on Sunday. He went 2-for-4 with an RBI during Sunday's close to 2-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. Riley slapped an RBI single in the sixth inning off righty John Curtiss as the only run for this offense. It was a frustrating […]

Marquise Brown Has Hamstring Injury

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown is currently dealing with a hamstring injury that's reportedly worse than originally thought, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Brown has now missed three consecutive practices. There's still a lot of time before the regular season, so while hamstring injuries are a definite concern, especially with a receiver like […]

Charlie Morton Gets Tough Luck Loss

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Charlie Morton was solid on the mound, but was saddled with the loss on Sunday. He went six innings, three hits allowed, two earned runs, and six strikeouts in the 2-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. The Braves offense didn't help Morton, but at least fantasy managers got a solid outing […]

Saquon Barkley “Making A Lot Of Strides”

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (knee) is "making a lot of strides," per head coach Joe Judge. "Very pleased with where Barkley's at," Judge said. "He's mirroring our practices to build up confidence for when he returns." Barkley has shown "tangible progress" while doing rehab work. He is running routes, cutting hard, and […]

Devonta Smith Week To Week With Knee Sprain

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver DeVonta Smith is currently "week to week" with a knee sprain. It doesn't sound like it's something that's worrying the team at this point and a sprain is probably the best-case scenario when it comes to a knee injury, but it's worth noting that Smith will miss some valuable practice […]

Charlie Culberson Has Three-Hit Game

Texas Rangers infielder Charlie Culberson was a tough player to get out during Sunday's game versus the Seattle Mariners. He went 3-for-4 at the plate with three singles during the 4-3 win on Sunday. Those three hits pushed his batting average to .237, but still isn't at a respectable mark. He also has three home […]

Matt Olson Blasts Three-Run Shot In Win Over Angels Sunday

Oakland Athletics first baseman Matt Olson went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer to help power the A's to a win in Anaheim on Sunday. New Athletics Starling Marte, Yan Gomes, and Josh Harrison all made their presence felt in the game, but it was old reliable Olson who put the A's on the board by […]

Andy Ibanez Hits Clutch Homer Versus Mariners

Texas Rangers infielder Andy Ibanez has not been a huge part of the lineup this season, but came up clutch on Sunday. He went 2-for-4 with a single, home run, and two RBI in the victory. Ibanez came up clutch in the ninth and blasted a two-run game tying homer off righty Erik Swanson. He […]

Jake Diekman Whiffs Two Angels In Clean Inning

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Jake Diekman pitched a clean eighth inning with two strikeouts in a win over the Angels on Sunday. Diekman has been strong in a setup role for Oakland as he's got eight holds, a 3.18 ERA, a 1.34 WHIP, and 55 strikeouts in 39 2/3 innings. His 32% strikeout rate should […]

Jonah Heim Hits Another Walkoff Sunday

Texas Rangers catcher Jonah Heim is looking like prime Babe Ruth at the plate over the weekend. The 26-year-old hit a pair of home runs including a walkoff winner in the 10th inning on Saturday. Heim returned as the DH for Sunday's contest and continued his clutch ways at the plate. He went 2-for-4 with […]

Mike Foltynewicz Has Decent Outing On Sunday

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Mike Foltynewicz finally put together a decent outing after getting smacked around his last few starts. He went five innings, three hits allowed, two earned runs, three walks, and one strikeouts versus the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. Both of his runs came with the bases loaded in the second inning. However, […]

Alex Bregman Pulled Early During Rehab Game

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hamstring) was removed early during Sunday's rehab game with Triple-A Sugar Land. It sounds like he was removed from the game as a precaution. Bregman should return in a day or two, but this could push back his return date to the big league roster. The hope was that […]

Josh James Activated, Optioned To Minors

Houston Astros pitcher Josh James (hip) has been activated off the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land. He was already with the organization for a rehab assignment, so he won't have to go anywhere. The 28-year-old righty has been sidelined all season due to a hip issue. He'll get some more work […]

Yan Gomes Launches Homer In Oakland Debut

Oakland Athletics catcher Yan Gomes made a good first impression on his new club by mashing a two-run homer to help beat the Angels on Sunday. Gomes added an RBI single in the contest and helped rookie pitcher Daulton Jefferies get past some early jitters and earn the win in the contest. Gomes, a veteran […]

Huascar Ynoa Gets Lit Up During Rehab Start

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Huascar Ynoa (hand) was not sharp during his rehab start in Single-A Rome on Sunday. He only pitched two innings, eight hits allowed, six runs allowed, while striking out two. The most important thing is that Ynoa is healthy and back on the mound. He has been sidelined since mid-May due […]

Starling Marte Swipes Three Bags In Win Over Angels

Oakland Athletics outfielder Starling Marte ran wild on Sunday, swiping three bags to help the A's earn a series win in Anaheim. Marte has fit right in with his new club as he's reached base eight times in 19 plate appearances with three runs scored and four stolen bases batting second for a strong A's […]

Daulton Jefferies Earns Win In 2021 Debut

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Daulton Jefferies allowed three runs across five innings to pick up the victory over the Angels on Sunday. Jefferies was making his first start of the season, and his first with fans in attendance as his only prior MLB game was in the 2020 season. Jefferies was on the ropes early […]

Alfred Morris Officially Signs With The Giants

Free-agent running back Alfred Morris re-signed with the New York Giants on Monday. The 32-year-old had modest success last season and had averaged 4.2 yards per carry. He logged 55 carries for 238 rushing yards and one touchdown over nine games for the Giants in 2020. Morris will compete for a spot on the Giants […]

Kendrick Bourne (WR, NE) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~280 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~327 ANALYSIS:  In San Francisco, clutch receiver Kendrick Bourne was locked in as the third option. After signing with the Patriots as a free agent, he could quickly outshine Nelson Agholor and Jakobi Meyers to become New England’s top dog. Bill Belichick brought him in for a reason. Bourne, preparing to enter his […]
