Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds snapped an 0-for-8 skid on Monday night, as he finished 2-for-5 with a run scored in the Pirates' 11-1 victory over Atlanta. Despite that small bump in the road, Reynolds has been putting up great numbers over his last 15 games, slashing .350/.381/.583 with four homers, two steals, 13 RBI […]

Adam Frazier Reaches Base Four Times On Monday Night

Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman Adam Frazier went 2-for-3 with two walks and a run scored in an 11-1 win against the Braves on Monday night. Day in and day out, Frazier continues to show why he is the National League starting second baseman in the All-Star Game, as he's now slashing .333/.438/.500 with two homers, […]

Kevin Na Still Up And Down Heading Into John Deere Classic

Kevin Na seems to be continuing his inconsistent play from one tournament to the next. He has followed up a top finish by missing the cut the past seven times out. With the lack of consistency, it is hard to gauge which Na will show up. His around-the-green ability is the best on tour at […]

Ty France (1B/2B/3B, SEA) - Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 42% of leagues ANALYSIS: The positional eligibility alone is fantasy gold, but what if a guy is hitting .265 while providing that? Not only that, but he is batting cleanup in an improving lineup. You probably want to know what you're going to have to […]

Ben Gamel Homers Twice In Win Monday

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Ben Gamel went 3-for-5 with a double, two homers, six RBI and three runs scored in an 11-1 win over the Braves on Monday night. It was a monster night at the plate for Gamel, who has been on fire over his last seven games, slashing .308/.357/.846 with four homers, eight RBI […]

Alex Noren Expected To Perform Well At John Deere Classic

Alex Noren nearly won the Rocket Mortgage Classic as he finished tied for fourth last week. This was buoyed by a 67-64 weekend that few saw coming. The only risk with Noren is it seems like he shoots a 74 or worse every other final round of late. Last weekend was a different story as […]

Javonte Williams Could Have Big Role By Season's End

The Denver Broncos didn't trade up in the second round of this year's draft for running back Javonte Williams to sit around and watch from the sidelines in 2021. The Denver Post's Ryan O'Halloran sees a scenario where Melvin Gordon III takes the first snap/series of the game in Week 1 and then the Broncos […]

Pat Perez A Good DFS Option At John Deere Classic

Pat Perez can always be a bit of a risk because his game can go south at any time, especially off the tee (149th on tour at -0.154 strokes gained). Over the last eight tournaments, Perez is putting at a top-50 level, and his sand saves have been near 60%. Even his around-the-green play has […]

Jerry Jeudy Ready For A Breakout Season?

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy struggled with drops, caught passes from three different starting quarterbacks and battled through an ankle injury in 2020, but the No. 15 pick of last year's draft still managed 856 receiving yards, the second-most for a rookie in franchise history. Jeudy looked sharp in offseason workouts and received praise […]

Seamus Power An A Roll Heading Into John Deere Classic

Seamus Power is on a run with four top-20 finishes in a row. He did not play in the US Open but in the lesser tiered tournaments, Power has performed quite nicely. Honestly, the John Deere Classic is another one of those tournaments. Power has made seven straight weekends behind some pretty solid putting and […]

Chez Reavie Needs To Putt To See The Weekend

Chez Reavie just cannot make enough putts. He ranks 193rd on tour with -0.563 strokes gained. The other problem is Reavie ranks 200th driving a golf ball an average of 281 yards. Even at the John Deere, that can be a bit of an issue at times. He missed seven straight cuts at one point […]

Colts Have Big Plans For Parris Campbell

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell, a second-round pick out of Ohio State in 2019, has five injuries, 24 catches and nine games played out of a possible 32 in his first two years in the league. However, the Colts remain confident that Campbell can deliver, and head coach Frank Reich has big plans for […]

Kyle Stanley Should See The Weekend At John Deere Classic

Kyle Stanley has one major weakness, and that is his putting. Other than not being able to drive the ball 300 yards, Stanley's biggest problem is how he fares on the greens. He ranks 197th in strokes gained in putting at minus-0.633. His around-the-green ability is about average, but again, he has to drop putts […]

Kevin Streelman Should Fare Better At John Deere Classic

Kevin Streelman just had one of those tournaments where little went right. Well, the putts just did not drop as Streelman missed the cut at the Travelers after a five tournament run where he finished 26th or better. That included a t-8th at the PGA Championship and t-15th at the US Open. Streelman is capable […]

N'Keal Harry Formally Requests A Trade

New England Patriots wide receiver N'Keal Harry's agent, Jamal Tooson, issued a formal statement on Tuesday to request a trade. "Through two seasons, he has 86 targets, which obviously hasn't met the expectations the Patriots and N'Keal had when they drafted a dominant downfield threat who was virtually unstoppable at the point of attack in […]

Tyrod Taylor Ready To Contribute In Houston

Houston Texans quarterback Tyrod Taylor is ready to contribute in his first season in Houston after spending the last two seasons backing up Philip Rivers and Justin Herbert in Los Angeles. Taylor has plenty of experience, winning a Super Bowl as a backup with Baltimore in 20212 and playing in 43 games for the Buffalo […]

Steve Stricker Not Likely To Be A Factor At John Deere Classic

It is great that Steve Stricker is playing at the John Deere this weekend, but that may be where the feel-good story ends. When one barely hits the ball 283 yards off the tee, that can be a problem. The course is only 7,257 yards in distance, but still just long enough. Stricker's approach to […]

Chargers Offense To Run Through Justin Herbert

The Los Angeles Chargers plan to run their offense this year through second-year quarterback Justin Herbert, which isn't much of a surprise after he won Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2020. "I wanted our offense to run through Justin Herbert … I wanted him to make it work and I think that's what's been […]

Jhonattan Vegas Could Have DFS Upside At John Deere Classic

Jhonattan Vegas might possess some potential DFS-wise this week at the John Deere Classic. At the Byron Nelson and Palmetto Championships, Vegas showed he could hang around finishing in a tie for ninth at both places. He had the putter mostly working on the weekend shooting in the 60's all four times. Aside from the […]

Aaron Wise Must Putt Well To Bounce Back At John Deere Classic

When Aaron Wise even putts pretty good, he can contend. See The Memorial where he wound up tied for ninth. At the PGA, he got on a roll that Sunday, shot a 68, and wound up in the top-20. Then, there was the Travelers where nothing would drop. He made the cut after a 65 […]

Bell's Best Bets - MLB Betting Picks for 7/6/21 (Premium Content)

Hey RotoBallers! Welcome to Week 15 of the MLB season, which is also the final week before the coveted All-Star Break, and the unofficial end to the first half of the season. We had a bell curve type of Week 14, starting off around the -26u mark, making our way up to the -20u mark […]

Vincent Whaley Not Worth The Risk At John Deere Classic

Vincent Whaley did make it to the weekend at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last week by a whisker, but then he shot a 73 on Sunday in relatively benign conditions. This was after a run of six straight tournaments where he finished in the top 35 or better. Then Whaley followed that up with two […]

Jeimer Candelario Doubles Twice In Win Over Rangers

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario notched his second consecutive multi-hit effort in Monday's 7-3 win over the Texas Rangers. He went 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles, a walk and a run scored in the game. Candelario had a rough month of June, slashing .194/.293/.236 with only three extra-base hits, all doubles. He's already […]

Mike Minor Allows Four Runs, Suffers Seventh Loss

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Mike Minor suffered his seventh loss of the year in the team's 6-2 loss to the Cincinnati Reds on Monday. He pitched six innings and allowed three hits, three walks and four earned runs while striking out six. Minor had allowed a total of 14 earned runs over his previous […]

Harold Varner III One To Stay Away From At John Deere Classic

Harold Varner III did not see Saturday at the Rocket Mortgage Classic last week at one of the easier tournaments of the summer. That does not bode well for the John Deere Classic. Even if Varner III gets to the weekend, he has not finished in the top-30 since the RBC Heritage Classic in April […]

Wily Peralta Throws Seven Scoreless Innings Against Rangers

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Wily Peralta had a dominant outing against the Texas Rangers on Monday. Making his fourth start of the year, Peralta went seven innings and allowed three hits, no walks and no runs while striking out six. Peralta now has a 2.14 ERA and 0.86 WHIP over 21 innings on the year. […]

Daniel Berger Is The Class Of The Field In The Quad Cities

Daniel Berger is the highest-priced golfer on the DFS slate at the John Deere Classic, and for good reason. The four-time PGA Tour winner is the only player in the field this week inside the top 25 in the official world golf rankings, and he ranks inside the top 10 in this field in a […]

Scott Stallings Worth A Look This Week At John Deere Classic

Scott Stallings is a risky DFS pick this week at the John Deere Classic. It is the week before "The Open" and strange things often happen. Low scores are very common and driving accuracy is not necessarily needed on the course. The problem with Stallings is he cannot hit very far either (less than 298 […]
