Marquez Callaway Aims To Build On Rookie Season

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway will look to build a bigger role for himself in 2021 after a modest rookie season in which he finished with 21 receptions for 213 yards on 27 targets in 11 games. Callaway will have to fight for targets with receivers like Deonte Harris and Juwan Johnson, who […]

Pedro Severino Collects Three Hits, Homers Friday

Baltimore Orioles catcher Pedro Severino had a nice day at the plate in Friday's 9-2 loss to the Royals. Severino went 3-for-4 with a single, a double, and a solo home run. The 27-year-old has been underwhelming this season, slashing just .230/.307/.348 with five HR and 18 RBI. This has limited his fantasy value, even […]

Deonte Harris Looks To Make Impact In Third Season

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Deonte Harris is projected as the WR3 on the team this season and the 23-year-old will look to make an impact in his third NFL season in 2021. In nine games last season, Harris had a modest 20 receptions for 186 yards and one touchdown on 25 targets in nine […]

Keegan Akin Turns In Poor Start Friday

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Keegan Akin fell to 0-5 in Friday's 9-2 loss to the Royals. Akin pitched just 3 innings, allowing six runs on eight hits and three walks with two strikeouts.

Wade Jr. lined a fifth-inning Adam Wainwright curveball just over the right-field wall to give the Giants a three-run lead. The 27-year-old has done a […]

Tre'Quan Smith Set For WR2 Role

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith is set for the WR2 role on the Saints, but that is due more to a lack of talent at the position rather than his production. In three seasons with New Orleans, the UCF product has been rather disappointing, not finishing with more than 34 receptions or 448 […]

Mike Yastrzemski Homers Twice Friday

San Francisco Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski had a huge night at the plate in Friday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals. Yaz went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a three-run HR, a walk, and a strikeout.

Logan Webb Pitches Well Friday With Limited Pitches

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb turned in a good start in Friday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals. Webb pitched four innings and threw 60 pitches, allowing one run on five hits and a walk with two strikeouts. It was the 24-year-old's second start back from the injured list with a right shoulder strain, […]

Michael Thomas Hopes To Bounce Back From Injury

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas didn't put up his typical production in 2020, and that was due to a lingering ankle injury that held him out for much of the season. Overall, Thomas expectedly put up career-low numbers last season, finishing with 40 receptions for 438 yards on 55 targets in seven games. […]

Brandin Cooks Role As Starting Receiver Is Safe

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks is set to start for the Texans this season, according to John McClain of the Houston Chronicle. McClain believes that Cooks is the only Texans receiver who enters training camp with a starting role in 2021 locked in. His fantasy ADP has reflected that all offseason, with Cooks being […]

Tyrod Taylor Enters Camp As Starting Quarterback

With Deshaun Watson still away from the team, the Houston Texans will enter 2021's training camp with Tyrod Taylor as the team's starting quarterback. In fact, John McClain of the Houston Chronicle says that Taylor's role as the starting passer in Houston is one of the few things that team knows right now about their […]

Sergio Romo K's Two In Relief Win Versus Cleveland

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Sergio Romo pitched a clean ninth inning against the Indians on Friday night and earned the win thanks to a walk-off homer by Jed Lowrie.

Dansby Swanson Smacks Solo Shot On Friday

Atlanta Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson had a tough day at the plate, but did homer during Friday's 7-6 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.

Austin Riley Smacks Homer In Loss To Rays

Atlanta Braves outfielder Austin Riley has put together some impressive power numbers this season. On Friday, Riley went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and one walk in the 7-6 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. Riley launched his 15th homer of the season off Michael Wacha. Riley has been a key piece in […]

Freddie Freeman Notches Four Hits On Friday

Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman did not let the All-Star break slow him down at the plate. On Friday, Freeman went 4-for-5 with a home run, two RBI, and a stolen base as well. Sadly, it wasn't enough to help lead the Braves to victory as they fell 7-6 to the Tampa Bay Rays. […]

Elvis Andrus Scores Twice Versus Cleveland On Friday

Oakland Athletics shortstop Elvis Andrus went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in a win over the Indians on Friday night. The veteran shortstop has been scoring runs batting second for a good A's lineup, but he's done little else to contribute for fantasy as he's batting just .240 with a .281 on-base percentage. He won't […]

Braves Acquire Stephen Vogt From Diamondbacks

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Stephen Vogt has been traded to the Braves in exchange for infielder Mason Berne. Vogt is hitting .212/.307/.386 with five homers over 151 plate appearances. He'll get some playing time against right-handed pitching, but isn't a huge upgrade for the Braves. Berne is a solid contact hitter without much pop and has […]

Ross Chastain May Get Tough Knocks This Week at New Hampshire

Ross Chastain helped Kurt Busch win last week at Atlanta when he "blocked" Kyle Busch. This week, Chastain starts 20th and the expectations are that the Chip Ganassi Racing driver may not have an easy time in traffic. He could move up a few positions but New Hampshire has been rough. Chastain has finished 25th […]

Zach Eflin Blitzed By Marlins On Friday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zach Eflin allowed six runs, five earned, across just 3 2/3 innings in a loss to the Marlins on Friday. Eflin allowed a base hit followed by a two-run homer to start the game and set the tone for the night. He allowed six hits and two walks as there was […]

Chase Briscoe Not Expected to be Factor at New Hampshire

Chase Briscoe has shown improvement and drives very well at road races. However, New Hampshire is not Atlanta and the 1.058-mile track has been tough on lots of drivers. Add in that this is the No. 14's first attempt at the NASCAR level on this track. Do not expect the Stewart-Haas Racing driver to have […]

Bubba Wallace Has Marginal DFS Possibility at New Hampshire

Bubba Wallace has driven much better on the racetrack as of late. He is making way fewer unforced errors and the results have been tangible. He has six top-20 results in his last seven races and a top-five at Pocono. Last week, Wallace improved ten spots at Atlanta. The 23XI Racing driver is showing glimpses […]

Sean Manaea K's Seven In No-Decision Versus Cleveland

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Sean Manaea allowed three runs in 5 1/3 innings with seven strikeouts in a no-decision versus the Indians on Friday.

Chris Buescher Too Dicey for DFS at New Hampshire on Sunday

Chris Buescher has been pretty consistent in the last month. He has finished from 16th to 20th in four races. That was despite a pole position for the second race at Pocono. The Roush Fenway Racing driver just does not seem to have the long-run capability of getting into the top ten. He has just […]
