Tread Lightly With Matthew Wolff

Fantasy managers will be excited to play Matthew Wolff after he surprised many with his 15th-place finish last week at the U.S. Open, yet they should be wary of an inflated price tag. While it was great to watch Wolff return to competitive action, fantasy managers should exercise patience and save Wolff for a course […]

Joey Lucchesi To Have Tommy John Surgery

New York Mets starting pitcher Joey Lucchesi (elbow) will be heading for Tommy John surgery due to an ulnar collateral ligament tear in his left elbow. This is a rough blow for Lucchesi who will now miss the rest of the 2021 campaign and, most likely, the beginning of the 2022 season. Lucchesi had been […]

Adam Engel Placed On Injured List

The Chicago White Sox placed outfielder Adam Engel (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list prior to their game against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday with a strained right hamstring. The move is retroactive to June 20. Outfielder Luis Gonzalez was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. It's the same hamstring that delayed Engel's […]

Miguel Andujar Sitting On Tuesday

New York Yankees outfielder Miguel Andujar is heading to the bench for Tuesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Andujar had appeared to win the starting left fielder job from Clint Frazier, though the former has fallen into a 2-for-20 slump at the plate, opening things back up for Frazier. Frazier has two extra-base hits […]

It's Finally Time To Hop Back On Rickie Fowler

After weeks of disappointing fantasy managers, Rickie Fowler is finally beginning to resemble his old self. The five-time PGA Tour winner is coming off back-to-back top-12 finishes on difficult courses in tough fields. In both instances, he gained over 1.6 strokes on approach and over 3.9 strokes putting. This was actually the first time that […]

Gary Sanchez Not In Tuesday's Lineup

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Manager Aaron Boone said he considered starting Sanchez at catcher but ultimately went back to Kyle Higashioka with Gerrit Cole on the mound. Boone did say that the plan is for Sanchez, who has slugged five […]

Michael Conforto Activated From Injured List

New York Mets outfielder Michael Conforto (hamstring) will be activated off of the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Conforto suffered a significant hamstring injury back on May 16 that had kept him sidelined for over one month. While he will be activated on Tuesday, it is unclear as to whether he will be in the […]

Michael Kopech Throws Bullpen Session On Tuesday

Chicago White Sox pitcher Michael Kopech (hamstring) threw off flat ground and also threw a bullpen session on Tuesday. Manager Tony La Russa said that Kopech will throw another bullpen session on Wednesday and it's a possibility that he will throw a simulated game this weekend. Kopech has been sidelined since May 26 with a […]

Darren O'Day, Justin Wilson To Begin Rehab Assignments Tuesday

New York Yankees relievers Darren O'Day (shoulder) and Justin Wilson (hamstring) have both been cleared to begin rehab assignments Tuesday. O'Day has been long tossing and getting mound work in while Wilson threw a bullpen session on Sunday. Both players have been sidelined for at least 20 games, so they'll likely require a more lengthy […]

Max Fried Placed On Injured List

Atlanta Braves left-handed pitcher Max Fried (finger) was placed on the 10-day injured list with a blister issue, the team announced on Tuesday. The move is a disappointment for both Braves fans and fantasy managers alike, given that the 27-year-old lefty appeared to be getting better with every start, including his seven-inning performance in Atlanta's […]

Anthony Rizzo Resting On Tuesday

Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo will receive a rare day off on Tuesday versus the Cleveland Indians. Rizzo has been slumping with just three hits over his last 22 at-bats. Infielder/outfielder Kris Bryant will slide over to first base and outfielder Jake Marisnick will replace Rizzo in the lineup. Marisnick will bat sixth versus […]

George Springer Returning To Blue Jays Lineup

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (quadriceps) will bat fifth and play center field in his return to the lineup after being activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. He will be facing Miami Marlins right-hander Sandy Alcantara. Springer has been limited to just four major league games in his first season with the Blue […]

Luke Voit Activated And Batting Third Tuesday

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (oblique) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday ahead of the contest with the Kansas City Royals. Voit missed about a month of action with a strained oblique but is back in the lineup, starting at first base and batting third against Royals' righty Brady Singer. Voit […]

Stewart Cink Should See The Weekend At Travelers

Stewart Cink has been driving and putting just well enough to make the weekend, but after that, things have started to unravel. Since his win at the RBC Heritage, Cink has had one round where he shoots himself into trouble. As a result, it knocks him out of contention. The 48-year-old does not have the […]

Si Woo Kim A Guessing Game This Week At Travelers

Si Woo Kim is like building a mystery. The golfer put it all together for a tied-9th at The Memorial then hung around to finish 40th at the US Open despite a Sunday 74. Kim tends to show up around majors but not always at tournaments surrounding them. Hence, this week at Travelers may be […]

Brendan Steele Might Struggle At Travelers

Brendan Steele has not fared well in the last four tournaments he has entered, with his best finish being a T37 at the Memorial. He nearly missed the cut and finished 77th at the PGA. Steele then missed the cut at the US Open. The problem is that Steele just cannot do one thing exceedingly […]

Sam Burns Trying To Reset Himself At Travelers

Sam Burns has had a rough time of it the past month or so. In three tournaments, he withdrew, barely finished 50th, and missed the cut at the US Open. Majors are rough and Burns learned some rough lessons. Even The Memorial has its challenges. One thing was clear. The golfer just was not prepared […]

Lanto Griffin Misses Too Many Cuts To Be A Factor At Travelers

Lanto Griffin might make the weekend at the Travelers, but there have been so many missed cuts, stemming from his inability to navigate around the greens. His strokes gained around the green rank an awful 181st on tour (-0.209). So while his putting is more than respectable along with other parts of his game, Griffin […]

Cameron Tringale Has Decent Upside At Travelers This Week

Cameron Tringale can shoot under par on Sundays, which seems to be the plan lately for him. Getting to Sundays, however, can be an adventure. Tringale shot 68, 69 and 70 in his last three final rounds. That kept him in the top five at the Valspar (third) and the top 32 at the Charles […]

Garrett Cooper Getting Into Rehab Games This Week

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper (back) will play in rehab games this week, and if all goes well, he could be activated for the weekend series. Cooper hasn't played since June 7 but will return to a .248/.326/.394 slash line. He was off to a slow start offensively, but he was starting to put […]

Adam Hadwin All Over The Place Entering Travelers

It is anyone's guess to try and figure out Adam Hadwin. His long game is good enough to compete most weeks and his eighth at the Charles Schwab was a testament to that around the green game. The problem is it seems he cannot consistently put it all together for something close to four rounds. […]

Ian Poulter Must Putt Well To Have A Shot At Travelers

The putter and his decent drives deserted Ian Poulter a bit at the US Open and PGA tournaments. That cost him a couple of top-20 finishes, at the very least. He fared much better at the Charles Schwab, where he nearly won the whole darn thing behind a weekend where he shot 64-68. It would […]

Corey Dickerson In A Walking Boot

Miami Marlins outfielder Corey Dickerson (foot) is in a walking boot and will not perform any baseball activities for at least three weeks. Once the three weeks are up, he will be reevaluated and the team will move on from there based on his progress. Dickerson went on the injured list on June 15, and […]

Tony Finau Should Improve At Travelers

Tony Finau entered last Thursday morning with a decent chance to contend at the US Open. He walked out of Torrey Pines South Friday evening missing the cut. Shooting 74 on Thursday was not bad but the 76 on Friday was. It left Finau scratching his head plenty. Maybe The Memorial was a harbinger of […]

Adam Scott Could Stick Around At Travelers

Adam Scott has had a bit of an adventure in 2021. Last week, he was up and down with a 75 in Round 2 and Round 4 derailing his weekend. It was not a complete loss but Scott wound up 35th whereas shooting even-par might have kept him at least in the top 20. The […]

Zach Eflin Plagued By Long Ball In 2021

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zach Eflin came into the season with high expectations as part of the team's starting rotation. Through half the season, Eflin is 2-6 with a 4.39 ERA and has been unable to carry last year's success into 2021. The right-hander has allowed 1.39 HR/9 so far this year, which includes serving […]

Patrick Reed Might Contend At Travelers If He Starts Well

Patrick Reed has kind of been the opposite of most of the top golfers lately. He has started slowly in tournaments before coming on either on Saturday or Sunday. Last week, Reed was okay until Sunday when he fired off a 67 to backdoor himself into a tie for 19th result at the US Open. […]

Bryson DeChambeau Trying To Find Game Again At Travelers

Bryson DeChambeau was set up for an excellent finish at the US Open, but then disaster struck. That seemed to be a bit of a theme from last Sunday. He shot a final-round 77, falling right out of the top 20 (T26). Since March, DeChambeau has had a bit of a rough time. He had […]

Dustin Johnson May Bounce Back At Travelers Championship

It was a rough Sunday for Dustin Johnson. He shot a final-round 74 and nearly finished out of the top 20 at the US Open. While the tied for 19th result was not horrible, it dropped him to second in the world rankings. That has been kind of a pattern lately for Johnson who missed […]
