George Valera Activated, Returns To Double-A

Cleveland Indians outfielder George Valera (oblique) has been activated from the 10-day injured list. The 20-year-old outfielder was sidelined for roughly a month, but will return to Double-A Lake County. He is currently the No. 93 prospect in the game by MLB Pipeline. However, Valera has struggled during his short stint in Double-A this season. […]

Champ or Chump: Cedric Mullins

Cedric Mullins is probably one of the biggest fantasy surprises of the year. The 26-year-old was virtually unheard of heading into 2021, though he logged MLB PAs in each season since 2018. Toiling in Baltimore can make it easy to get overlooked, especially if you're posting mediocre numbers with worse peripherals. Mullins gave up switch-hitting […]

Brian O'Grady Blasts First Homer Of Season

San Diego Padres outfielder Brian O'Grady went 2-for-4 with a homer, double and three RBI Monday against the Chicago Cubs. Called up from Triple-A prior to gametime, O'Grady started over a struggling Wil Myers in right field and provided an early spark, roping an offering from Cubs starter Adbert Alzolay over the wall for his […]

Manny Machado Goes Yard And Pockets Three RBI

San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado finished 2-for-3 with a homer and three RBI Monday against the Chicago Cubs. Machado pocketed a pair of sacrifice flies to build the Friars lead before socking a solo dinger in the eighth inning to help ice the 9-4 victory. The 28-year-old continues to hit the ball hard […]

Most Improved Offenses After the NFL Draft

Each year, NFL teams enter the draft with hopes that they can bolster their squad into a powerhouse. Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn’t. Nevertheless, there are certainly teams that improved their offenses through this past draft, adding a solid skill position player or even their potential QB of the future. Though a lot of […]

Jorge Soler Hits His Fifth Home Run On Monday

Kansas City Royals designated hitter Jorge Soler went yard for the fifth time this year in Monday's loss to the Los Angeles Angels. The home run was a solo shot and it was Soler's only hit of the day as he went 1-for-3. He also reached base after being hit by a pitch in the […]

Tight End Best Ball Tiered Rankings and Analysis

Tight end isn't everyone's favorite position in fantasy football. Beyond the top tier, we encounter uncertainty, frustration, and the need to stream. There is no such option in best-ball leagues, though. Securing a high-end TE, especially in an FFPC format that uses TE-Premium scoring, is very appealing but not everyone can have Travis Kelce, nor […]

Jackson Kowar Can't Make It Through The First In His Debut

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Jackson Kowar had an MLB debut to forget against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. Kowar lasted just 2/3 of an inning, allowing three hits, two walks and four earned runs without recording any strikeouts. He was tagged with the loss as the Royals fell 8-3 in the game. The […]

Ian Happ Goes Yard In Loss

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's loss versus the San Diego Padres. Happ has really been in a slump and only has six hits over his last 43 at-bats. The outfielder came into the season as a breakout candidate, but he hasn't produced much in 2021. Hopefully […]
