Baker Mayfield Not Worried About Possible Extension

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield reiterated on Wednesday that he's "not worried at all" about a possible contract extension with the team this summer. Mayfield is only worried about winning after leading the team to a playoff berth in 2020 without star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee). The 26-year-old signal-caller is under contract through […]

Marcus Stroman Throws Eight Scoreless Innings In Win

New York Mets starting pitcher Marcus Stroman allowed one hit and one walk while striking out seven across eight scoreless innings on Wednesday, as he earned the win in a 7-0 victory against the Reds. It was his best start in the month of July, as he is now 7-8 with a 2.59 ERA, 1.08 […]

Jace Peterson (1B/2B/3B/OF, MIL) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 34% of leagues ANALYSIS: The multi-position eligibility, especially in leagues with shallow benches, is intoxicating isn't it? A look as the surface suggests nothing special about Peterson. The .254 average is, well, average. Four homers and 21 RBI is below average. Peterson has made a […]

Diontae Spencer Expected To Make Team As Sixth Receiver

Denver Broncos wide receiver Diontae Spencer is expected to make the team this fall as the sixth receiver, but he'll mainly be active on game days because he's the team's primary kick returner. Spencer is an afterthought on offense, as he's hauled in nine of his 14 targets for 57 yards and no touchdowns in […]

K.J. Hamler Was A Tease In His Rookie Year

Denver Broncos wide receiver K.J. Hamler was a tease for fantasy managers in his rookie season. He gives Broncos offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur all kinds of options when he's healthy, as Hamler can be lined up anywhere from the slot to the backfield because of his quickness and speed. But nagging hamstring injuries stunted his […]

Jerry Jeudy Should Benefit From Return Of Courtland Sutton

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy went against No. 1 cornerbacks in his rookie season after Courtland Sutton (knee) suffered a season-ending injury in Week 2. Jeudy was able to bring in 52 catches for a team-high 856 yards and should benefit from Sutton drawing the attention of the opponent's top cornerback in 2021. However, […]

Andrew Vaughn (1B/OF, CWS) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 37% of leagues ANALYSIS: Like many young players, Vaughn had some trouble getting going when he broke camp with the White Sox. He was a hot commodity in leagues that drafted closer to the start of the season, but his .255 average with just one […]

Mookie Betts Could Be Facing Potential Injured List Stint

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts (hip) could be facing a potential stay on the injured list after being held out of the lineup for the fourth game in a row on Wednesday, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register. Manager Dave Roberts said, "It's certainly a possibility, though I didn't think it […]

Josiah Gray To Start On Sunday Against Rockies

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that right-handed pitching prospect Josiah Gray will make his first major league start on Sunday against the Colorado Rockies. Gray served as the team's bulk arm on Tuesday against the San Francisco Giants in his major league debut and allowed four runs on four hits (three home runs), […]

Courtland Sutton Could Be Eased In During Camp

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (knee), who tore his ACL in his 20th snap of the Week 2 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers last year, could have his workload managed in training camp after he was limited to individual work during the offseason program. Sutton was the team's best offensive weapon a year ago […]

Enrique Hernandez (2B/SS/OF, BOS) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 35% of leagues ANALYSIS: When we last saw Kike Hernandez (pronounced KEE-KAY), he was mashing lefties for the Dodgers for the last few years. That limited his chances. His career high in at-bats is 414, set in 2019 when the Dodgers had a lot of […]

Rams Unlikely To Revisit Todd Gurley II

The Los Angeles Rams clearly don't believe that free-agent running back Todd Gurley II can be effective in the running game anymore, even in a rotation, due to the knee injuries that they had to deal with for the entire 2019 season. It's why they eventually cut him early in 2020 despite owing him a […]

Xavier Jones May Be One Of Rams Better Assets

Los Angeles Rams running back Xavier Jones, a former undrafted free agent, may quietly be one of the team's better assets this fall, depending on Darrell Henderson Jr.'s health and the depth at the position. The team's decision (for now) not to look outside the organization to replace Cam Akers (Achilles) points strongly toward their […]

Vince Williams Announces His Retirement

Long-time Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Vince Williams announced his retirement from the NFL on Wednesday. The former sixth-round pick out of Florida State in 2013 played his entire eight-year career with Pittsburgh, racking up 479 tackles (333 solo), 45 QB hits, two interceptions (one for a TD), five passes defensed, six fumble recoveries and 20.5 sacks […]

Joey Votto (1B, CIN) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues ROSTERED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's not often that we advise you to rush out and pick up a 37-year-old player off of waivers, but here we are. Yeah, his .262 average is still far below his .303 career batting average and his days of hitting 25 homers […]

Offensive Line Could Struggle In Front Of Ben Roethlisberger

The Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line is young and inexperienced going into the 2021 season after they overhauled the unit after an atrocious 2020 season (last in the NFL) running the football. A best-case scenario this year would be some growing pains that are masked by rookie running back Najee Harris and a new-look offensive scheme. […]

Hunter Renfroe (OF, BOS) - Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in leagues of 12+ teams ROSTERED IN: 45% of leagues ANALYSIS: Renfroe has gained quite a reputation for being an all-or-nothing type of fantasy player. His abhorrent .156 average with the Rays last year set that in stone. His .260 average this season is 12 points better than his previous best when […]

Sam Darnold Could Thrive In New Environment

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold could put together his best season as a pro in his new environment away from the Jets. Darnold didn't exactly prove that he was worthy of being the third overall pick in three seasons in New York, never exceeding 3000 passing yards, 20 touchdowns, or a 61 percent completion rate. […]

Zach Ertz Expected To Report To Training Camp

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz, who had trade speculation surrounding him for months, is expected to report to training camp with the team next week, according to an Eagles sideline reporter. The previous belief was that Ertz would sit out of training camp while the team tried to trade him. And if they couldn't […]

Eugenio Suarez Remains Cold At The Plate

Cincinnati Reds third baseman Eugenio Suarez continued his season-long struggles at the plate on Wednesday, as he finished 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in a 7-0 loss to the Mets. Suarez has not been able to figure things out at the plate this season as he is slashing just.172/.255/.362 over 92 games, however he has managed […]

Hayden Hurst Could Still Be Productive Despite Backup Role

Atlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst could be on the field frequently in new head coach Arthur Smith's offense in 2021. Hurst was productive in his first season with the Falcons last year, totaling 56 receptions on 88 targets for 571 yards and six touchdowns. While the drafting of Kyle Pitts certainly puts a large […]

Max Muncy Returns To Lineup After Early Exit Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy (shoulder) is in the starting lineup on Wednesday night after exiting Tuesday's contest with a right shoulder contusion. Muncy will get the start at second base for the Dodgers, and is batting second against the Giants. This is great news for fantasy managers, as Muncy has been having a […]

Miles Mikolas To Make Rehab Start Saturday At Triple-A

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (forearm) will make a rehab start on Saturday with Triple-A Memphis, according to Zachary Silver of MLB.com. Mikolas has made just one start this year, and has been sidelined with forearm tightness since the end of May. He didn't pitch in 2020, and in his last full season […]

Hello PGA DFS family and welcome back to Horse For The Course! Collin Morikawa continued his assault on golf's record books at Royal St. George's by capturing the Claret Jug in his Open Championship debut.

Bradley Zimmer Leading Off Again Wednesday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Bradley Zimmer is leading off for the third time in four games Wednesday night against right-hander Lance McCullers Jr. and the Houston Astros. This may be a new look for the Tribe moving forward, as Zimmer is 7-for-21 with two home runs since the All-Star break. Cesar Hernandez will once again drop […]

Justin Turner Sidelined On Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner (knee) will be sidelined on Wednesday versus the San Francisco Giants. Turner was hit on the knee during Tuesday's game and left the game three innings later. The third baseman was officially diagnosed with a left knee contusion and remains day-to-day. Infielder/outfielder Zach McKinstry will replace Turner at […]
