Jake Cave Homers Thursday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Jake Cave homered Thursday, hitting a solo shot off New York Yankees starting pitcher Jameson Taillon in a 7-5 loss. It was his only hit in two at-bats before being replaced by Rob Refsnyder. Cave offers a bit of power and speed, but he isn't worth adding in fantasy with a .563 […]

Sony Michel Sees Action On Thursday

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel was able to see some playing time during their second preseason game versus the Philadelphia Eagles. Both J.J.

Minnesota Twins first baseman Miguel Sano went deep for the second straight day Thursday, launching a solo shot off New York Yankees relief pitcher Chad Green in the ninth inning of a 7-5 loss.

Rhamondre Stevenson Has Two-Touchdown Game

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has shown he is certainly capable of carry this own weight. He went off in the preseason opener for over 100 yards on the ground. Stevenson slowed down on the ground in this one and took over the power back role. On Thursday, Stevenson rushed 15 times for […]

Washington To Let Ryan Fitzpatrick Air It Out?

Washington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is going into potentially the best situation of his lengthy NFL career. This year, the veteran is the unquestioned starter for the entirety of the season. He won't have a promising rookie pushing him for playing time as he did with the Miami Dolphins last season. Head coach Ron […]

J.J. Taylor Impressive In Second Preseason Matchup

New England Patriots running back J.J. Taylor exceeded expectations during their second preseason matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday.

Mac Jones Remains Solid Versus Eagles

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones saw time with the second stringers during their second preseason matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. Veteran Cam Newton drew the start and played well during his limited action. Jones completed 13-of-19 passing attempts for 146 yards and one touchdown without an interception in the blowout win. Right now, Newton […]

Mark O. Madsen Set For Co-Main-Event Showing

Olympic silver medalist Mark O. Madsen (10-0) will enter the UFC cage Saturday as the night's co-main-event attraction.

Jorge Lopez Earns 14th Loss

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Jorge Lopez lasted only two innings Thursday night against the Tampa Bay Rays, giving up four runs on four hits and two walks with two strikeouts.

Cam Newton Looks Sharp In Second Preseason Contest

New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton started and played with the first team during Thursday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He didn't see a ton of time on the field, but played well with his limited reps. Newton completed 8-of-9 passing attempts for 103 yards without a touchdown or interception. Rookie Mac Jones came in […]

Ramon Urias Homers Thursday

Baltimore Orioles infielder Ramon Urias went deep Thursday against the Tampa Bay Rays, hitting his sixth home run of the year off relief pitcher Adam Conley in the ninth inning. He also doubled and scored two runs in the game. Urias has not had a great season, but he's put up a decent .736 OPS […]

J.P. Crawford Scores Two Runs Thursday

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford scored two runs in Thursday's 9-8 extra-inning victory over the Texas Rangers. He went 2-for-5 with a walk in the game. Crawford is in no danger of losing his spot at the top of the lineup, a role which will allow him to score plenty of runs even as he […]

Adolis Garcia Hits 27th Homer On Thursday

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia seems to be getting his power swing back over the last few games. On Thursday, Garcia went 2-for-4 with a single and a solo home run in the sixth inning off righty Chris Flexen. Sadly, the Rangers would end up dropping this game to the Seattle Mariners 9-8 in 11 […]

Paul Sewald Earns 11th-Inning Save

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Paul Sewald got the call in the bottom of the 11th inning Thursday, and he came through with a save against the Texas Rangers to close out a 9-8 victory.

Diego Castillo Melts Down Thursday

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Diego Castillo blew a save Thursday night against the Texas Rangers.

He […]

Jason Martin Hits Game-Tying Blast

Texas Rangers outfielder Jason Martin was almost the hero in a hard fought 9-8 loss to the Seattle Mariners on Thursday. Martin hit a game-tying three-run home run off Diego Castillo in the ninth inning. Sadly, the Rangers would end up losing in 11 innings, but that was likely Martin's biggest hit of his career. […]

Chris Flexen Throws Gem Against Rangers

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Chris Flexen had another outstanding start Wednesday night, throwing seven strong innings against the Texas Rangers. He allowed two runs (one earned) on four hits and one walk with five strikeouts. He left in position for a win before a bullpen meltdown in the ninth left him with a no-decision. Flexen […]

Joe Barlow Tagged With Loss On Thursday

Texas Rangers relief pitcher Joe Barlow appears to be the favorite for save chances down the stretch. On Thursday, Barlow got through a scoreless 10th inning and appeared locked in. Sadly, that changed in the 11th when Ty France hit a go-ahead two-run home run off Barlow. He was given the loss in what was […]

Spencer Howard Lifted After Two Innings

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Spencer Howard is certainly going to be a work in progress for the organization.
