Brandon Hagy Playing Well Before 3M Open

In his last two starts, Brandon Hagy has carded two straight top-20 finishes. The main reason for that, his putting. Hagy currently sits 135th in strokes gained putting this season, but in those starts, Hagy has gained strokes on the greens in both. Looking at all of his finishes this season, Hagy's success is directly […]

Mark Giordano Joins Kraken In Inaugural Season

Calgary Flames defenseman Mark Giordano was selected by Seattle in the 2021 expansion draft Wednesday. Like new Kraken forward Jordan Eberle, Giordano will bring some veteran leadership to the new franchise. At 37-years-old, the Toronto, Ontario native still logged a ton of ice time for the Flames playing 22:57 minutes per game. His point production […]

Troy Merritt Just A Guy At 3M Open

After a T2 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, Troy Merritt has missed his last two cuts. Merritt comes to TPC Twin Cities this weekend, a place where he has a top-10 finish and a missed cut. Merritt carded the better of the two in the first 3M Open in 2019. Merritt only loses strokes off […]

Dylan Frittelli Is Very Risky At 3M Open

Dylan Frittelli has made both of his career cuts at the 3M Open. That is important, especially since Frittelli has missed well more cuts than he has made this season. Since the Zurich Classic at the end of April, Frittelli has only made two cuts in nine starts. Frittelli has had a rough time on […]

Darrick Minner Looking For A Three-Fight Winning Streak

After losing his Contender Series matchup to Herbert Burns in August of 2019, Darrick Minner (26-11) won a few more fights on the regional scene before getting the call up to the UFC. Losing his debut in February of last year, Minner has found his groove in the Octagon, winning his last two and hoping […]

Danny Santana Exits Wednesday’s Game Early

Boston Red Sox infielder Danny Santana (groin) was removed from Wednesday's game with left groin tightness. He fell hard while diving for a ball in left field. The 30-year-old went 0-for-4 before exiting. Santana was activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday after dealing with a left quad strain. The severity of his groin […]

Emiliano Grillo Has Been Up And Down Recently

When Emiliano Grillo makes the cut, he puts up a good finish. In his last four made cuts, Grillo has three top-15 finishes. However, Grillo missed three straight cuts in June and early July. So, it's boom-or-bust with Grillo this week. He is a great approach player, sitting 12th on the PGA Tour in strokes […]

Darren Elkins Set For His 24th UFC Appearance

Few fighters needed a win as badly as Darren Elkins (25-9) in his last outing in November of last year. The veteran of the UFC since March 2010 was on the first losing streak of his career, a three-fight streak, that he was able to snap with a third-round submission win in his last appearance. […]

Matt Kuchar Cannot Be Counted On At 3M Open

Since the PGA Championship, Matt Kuchar doesn't have a finish better than T50. In that span, Kuchar has missed three cuts, withdrawn from a start, and finished T50 at the Charles Schwab Challenge. A reason for that, Kuchar hasn't gained strokes on the green since the AT&T Byron Nelson in May. Kuchar will be making […]

Miranda Maverick Hoping To Continue Impressive Run

So far for Miranda Maverick (9-2), her run in the UFC has been solid. She's 2-0 since joining the UFC after her run in Invicta FC, and Maverick has proven to be a dangerous ground finisher, with five of her nine career wins coming by submission. Against another young star in Maycee Barber, both fighters […]

Hank Lebioda A Great Option At TPC Twin Cities

Hank Lebioda is on fire. At the start of May, Lebioda was 147th in the FedEx Cup standings. As it stands now, Lebioda sits 83rd. Looking more recent, Lebioda has three straight top-eight finishes, highlighted by T4 at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. Lebioda is a top-25 putter, as well as a top-50 player on approach. […]

Rickie Fowler Too Risky At TPC Twin Cities

Rickie Fowler has turned around his season, making four of his last five cuts. However, the 3M Open isn't a spot to count on Fowler. Fowler only loses strokes in two areas, unfortunately, they are key stats this week. Fowler sits outside the top-140 in strokes gained putting and strokes gained approach. Pairing that with […]

J.T. Poston Will Go As Far As His Putter Will Take Him

J.T. Poston is a great putter, the third-best on tour. He nearly won the Barbasol Championship last week and will look to get back into contention this week. Poston loses strokes everywhere but on the green, which is surprising for someone with six top-25 finishes. Poston's price is a bit high, but he is someone […]

Chris Driedger Will Mind The Crease In Seattle

Florida Panthers goaltender Chris Driedger will be in a new uniform after he was drafted by Seattle in the expansion draft on Wednesday. Driedger had his best NHL season in 2021, registering 14 wins and six losses in 23 outings. The Winnipeg, Manitoba, native also recorded a 2.07 goals-against average with a .927 save percentage. […]

Maycee Barber Needs A Win To Avoid Three-Fight Losing Streak

This is unfamiliar territory for young star Maycee Barber (8-2) who is hoping to avoid a three-fight losing streak on Saturday. After sustaining an injury in her bout in January of last year against Roxanne Modafferi, Barber made her return 13 months later, losing a decision to Alexa Grasso. Barber will return to action five […]

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story went 1-for-4 with a single, a run scored, and a strikeout in a 6-3 win over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday. Story singled and scored during the Rockies' five-run first inning but he would do nothing else for the rest of the game. The usually reliable shortstop has had an […]

Dom Nunez Picks Up Three RBI Against The Mariners

Colorado Rockies catcher Dom Nunez went 1-for-2 with a double, three RBI, and a walk in a 6-3 win over the Mariners on Wednesday. Nunez delivered the big hit in the ball game as he smacked a bases-loaded double off of opener Keynan Middleton in the first inning. The double, his 10th of the year, […]

Jordan Williams Looking For First Octagon Win Saturday

In search of his first UFC win, Jordan Williams will look to rebound from his debut loss in October of last year. After losing his Contender Series shot in 2019, Williams received another try in September of last year, earning a first-round TKO. DraftKings sees Williams as the betting favorite, though, with a salary of […]

Josh Rojas Dislocates Finger In Wednesday’s Win

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Josh Rojas (finger) dislocated the pinkie finger on his left hand in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Pirates. He dislocated his finger on a head-first slide towards second base. He went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, and a run scored before exiting. The severity of his injury is unknown at this […]

Broncos Leaning Teddy Bridgewater Over Drew Lock?

The Denver Broncos are leaning towards quarterback Teddy Bridgewater over Drew Lock in the competition to be the team's Week 1 starter in 2021 against the New York Giants, in the opinion of The Denver Post's Ryan O'Halloran. The Broncos could rely on a potentially elite defense in Weeks 1-3 against the Giants, Jaguars and […]

Daniel Bard Secures The Save On Wednesday

Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Daniel Bard earned his 15th save of the season on Wednesday when he worked a scoreless ninth inning, allowing no hits and punching out one in a 6-3 win over the Mariners. Bard had to face the three, four, and five hitters in the Mariners' lineup but had plenty of breathing […]

Matthew Wolff Has Great History At 3M Open

Matthew Wolff picked up his first career win at the 2019 3M Open and finished T12 a year later. Although he hasn't played much golf in 2021, Wolff still has the skills to succeed at the 3M Open. Wolff is an above-average putter -- he's inside the top 80 on tour -- and is a […]

Mickey Gall Returns To The Octagon

It has been over a year since we have seen Mickey Gall in action, but he is set to open up the main UFC card on Saturday against Jordan Williams. Joining the UFC with a 1-0 record, Gall has continued to evolve as a fighter with a record of 5-3 inside the Octagon. Dangerous on […]

Jordan Eberle Selected By Seattle In Expansion Draft

New York Islanders forward Jordan Eberle has been selected by the Seattle Kraken in the 2021 expansion draft.

He easily could play on Seattle's top line as he netted 16 goals and registered 17 assists in 55 regular-season games. […]

Austin Gomber Earns A Quality Start In Win

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Austin Gomber earned the win on Wednesday when he allowed three runs on three hits with one walk and three strikeouts over six innings in a 6-3 win over the Seattle Mariners. Gomber was making his first start in nearly a month after sitting out with left forearm tightness. He only […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Placed On NFI List

New England Patriots rookie running back Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) was placed on the active Non-Football Injury list on Wednesday, meaning that he is not cleared for practice ahead of training camp. However, Stevenson, who was drafted in the fourth round, can come off the NFI list at any time. Stevenson impressed as a pass-catcher during […]
