Tyler Rogers Earns Redemption Save Wednesday

San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Tyler Rogers got back on the right track in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Dodgers, picking up his 11th save of the season. Rogers, who blew the save in the previous game, came on to pitch the ninth inning up by two and pitched a 1-2-3 inning. The side-armer has […]

Logan Webb Turns In Decent Start Wednesday

Dallas Goedert Likely Back To Sharing His Position

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert was flying up draft boards all offseason with the news that Zach Ertz would be playing elsewhere in 2022. While the Eagles did allow Ertz to explore trade options, it seems no team was willing to take on the $8.5 million owed to the 30-year-old who just came off […]

Asher Wojciechowski Pitches Four Innings In Spot Start

New York Yankees pitcher Asher Wojciechowski worked four innings in a spot start against the Phillies on Wednesday. Wojciechowski struggled with control, throwing just 48 of 83 pitches for strikes and issuing three walks. The 32-year-old righty did allow just two runs and struck out four, including seven swinging strikes. Wojciechowski may be needed for […]

Hector Neris Suffers Another Blow Up On Wednesday At Yankees

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Hector Neris allowed three runs in one inning at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday. Two steps forward, three steps back for Neris, who earned a save in his last outing on Sunday. He was less sharp in this one, however, as he allowed a go-ahead single to Giancarlo Stanton before serving up […]

Vitek Vanecek In Line For Big Role With Kraken

The Seattle Kraken selected goaltender Vitek Vanecek from the Washington Capitals in the Expansion Draft on Wednesday night. The 25-year-old is coming off a very respectable rookie campaign in D.C. in 2020-2021 - posting a 21-10-4 record to go along with a 2.69 goals-against average and a .908 save percentage in 36 appearances. Vanecek will […]

Spencer Howard Spins Three Good Innings At Yankees

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Spencer Howard threw three shutout innings in a start at the Yankees on Wednesday. Howard allowed a hit and a walk while striking out two. The rookie has been good in a limited capacity for Philly, but will need to prove he can pitch deeper into games to be a fantasy […]

Jared McCann Headed To Seattle

Forward Jared McCann will be joining the Seattle Kraken in its debut season in 2021-2022 as the franchise selected him from the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night. The 25-year-old was only a member of the Leafs for a handful of days following getting traded from Pittsburgh in exchange for prospect Filip Hallander and a […]

Jorge Soler Homers In Second Straight Game

Kansas City Royals outfielder Jorge Soler went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers.

Whit Merrifield Tallies Two Hits And A Stolen Base

Kansas City Royals second baseman/outfielder Whit Merrifield helped lead the team to a 6-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday.

Carey Price To Remain In Montreal Following Expansion Draft

The Seattle Kraken chose to pass on goaltender Carey Price in Wednesday's expansion draft. The 33-year-old netminder's decision to volunteer to be exposed so his team could instead protect fellow goaltender Jake Allen was arguably one of the biggest topics of discussion over the past few days. Price had a mediocre regular season in 2020-2021 […]

Scott Barlow Records His Fifth Save On Wednesday

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher Scott Barlow closed out the team's 6-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday to earn his fifth save of the year.

Ranger Suarez Tagged With Loss Versus Yankees

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Ranger Suarez was the tough-luck loser on Wednesday at the Yankees, as he allowed an unearned run to score in the 10th inning. Fantasy managers don't need to worry about Suarez losing his grip on the closer job, however, as he actually pitched well in this game. Suarez was called on […]

Akil Baddoo Blasts His Eighth Home Run On Wednesday

Detroit Tigers outfielder Akil Baddoo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Texas Rangers. The home run was his eighth of the year and his third over his past six games. Baddoo had a long power drought, hitting just one home run from April 14 to July 10, but […]

Robbie Grossman (OF, DET) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: Grossman is one of those guys that's always an afterthought, even in the deepest of leagues, when it comes to fantasy baseball. He's a career .249 hitter and had only had double-digit homers once in eight major league seasons.......prior to this […]

Matt Manning Delivers First Quality Start On Wednesday

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matt Manning had the best start of his young career against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. Manning pitched six innings and allowed four hits, two walks and two runs (one earned) while striking out four. It was his first quality start and he picked up his second win of the year […]

Calle Jarnkrok In Line For Expanded Role With Kraken

The Seattle Kraken selected forward Calle Jarnkrok from the Nashville Predators during the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft on Wednesday. The versatile forward was chosen over the likes of Ryan Johansen, 28, and Matt Duchene, 30. Those two veteran players have shown scoring touches in the past but are both signed to lengthy contracts with $8 […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~130 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~165 ANALYSIS: Tua's ADP of 103 has him getting off draft boards as the QB18... while he has a QB12 projection (again, via PFF). That, translated to a simple ROI figure, means that Tua is the most valuable player at the position with an ADP below 100. He's […]

Jean Segura Smacks Leadoff Homer Versus Yankees

Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Jean Segura went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in a loss to the Yankees on Wednesday. Segura jumped on a first-pitch fastball from Asher Wojciechowski to give the visitors a quick lead. He wouldn't record another hit in the game, but Segura has been solid in the leadoff role for […]

Cheap Best-Ball Stacks: QB/WR Duos to Draft Late

Best ball is a different beast than traditional season-long fantasy football leagues. No waivers or trades mean hitting the right draft picks from beginning to end is the sole determinant of success. This is quantified by win rates, or how often a player was rostered on league-winning teams. The results are often unexpected because it's […]

Michael Carter (RB, NYJ) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~89 ANALYSIS: Carter fell to the fourth round of the NFL Draft, but yet he is still the Jets RB with the most upside. The competition for touches in the Jets backfield consists of Carter, Tevin Coleman, Ty Johnson and La’Mical Perine. He rushed for 1,245 yards as a senior, his […]

Kraken Snag Carson Soucy In Expansion Draft

The Seattle Kraken secured a strong group of defensemen on Wednesday during the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft and snagged an underrated defender from the Minnesota Wild in Carson Soucy. The 26-year-old scored just one goal last season but he added 16 assists in 50 games while averaging just over 15 minutes of playing time per […]

MMA DFS Value Picks - UFC Vegas 32: Sandhagen vs. Dillashaw (Premium Content)

Do you remember when Conor McGregor came back from his hiatus to face Poirier for the third time? Ah, those good old years... Or weeks, that is, because the UFC is back on the ultra-packed schedule and has cards on the calendar for the next seven weeks on top of the past two weekends doing […]

Robby Anderson (WR, CAR) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~90 ANALYSIS: You wouldn’t know it by ADP, but Robby Anderson scored the most fantasy points among Panthers receivers last season. He also led them with a 26 percent target share. While fantasy managers are paying up for DJ Moore, Anderson is still going as a WR3 despite finishing […]

Deep-League Quarterback Sleepers

Some people climb stadium steps backward with weights strapped around their wrists and ankles. Others eat hot peppers by the jarful or build tiny ships inside bottles. The hardiest fantasy football degenerates test their mettle by playing in leagues so deep they must scrutinize the relative merits of, say, Andy Dalton and Drew Lock. They […]

James Robinson (RB, JAX) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~50 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~61 ANALYSIS: Robinson may have an industry ADP of 61, but that is dropping fast and it is as high as 90 on certain sites. He is going as an RB3 on all sites. Yes, the Jaguars used a first-round pick on Travis Etienne, but they have talked about […]

Adam Larsson Signs Four-Year contract With Kraken

The Edmonton Oilers suffered a big loss on Wednesday when the Seattle Kraken nabbed veteran defenseman Adam Larsson during the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft. The new club then signed the pending unrestricted free agent to a four-year, $16 million contract. The 28-year-old is a reliable, stay-at-home defender who doled out 166 hits and blocked 128 […]
