Trevor Zegras Returns To Lineup On Monday
Anaheim Ducks forward Trevor Zegras will be re-inserted into his team's lineup versus the Los Angeles Kings on Monday. The 19-year-old rookie was healthy scratched for the first time in his young career in Saturday's victory over the Avalanche. Zegras' production has been quite limited since receiving his first NHL call-up on February 22nd - […]

Timo Meier Won't Play On Monday
San Jose Sharks forward Timo Meier will be sidelined with a lower-body injury and miss his team's contest against the St. Louis Blues on Monday. The 24-year-old missed Saturday's loss to Vegas with the injury as well. It should be considered tough news for fantasy owners who held onto Meier as struggled out of the […]

Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar Remain Out On Monday
Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon (upper body) and defenseman Cale Makar (upper body) remain out for Monday's contest against Arizona but should feature later in the week.

Darcy Kuemper Faces Avalanche Monday Night
Arizona Coyotes goaltender Darcy Kuemper will be tasked with stopping the Avalanche on Monday.

Kuemper has a 2.39 goals-against average for the season […]

Israel Adesanya Unsuccessful In His Bid For "Double Champ" Status
Though he is no longer undefeated as a professional mixed martial artist, Israel Adesanya (20-1) has nothing to be ashamed of, suffering a unanimous decision loss to the much bigger opponent, light heavyweight champion Jan Blachowicz. Still, the UFC's middleweight champion, Adesanya landed 78 significant strikes (99 total strikes) along with only stuffing two of […]

J.P. Crawford Looking For More Power in 2021
Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford showed off a vastly improvement glove in 2020, but this year he's looking to shore up his power game as well. Last year, Crawford's strikeout rate dropped to 16.8 percent, six percent lower than the previous year, but the contact he made didn't often go for extra bases. In fact, […]

Jan Blachowicz Turns In A Career Performance To Retain Title
Doing what many thought he would not be able to do, "Polish Power" Jan Blachowicz (28-8) defeated the previously undefeated and current UFC middleweight champion, Israel Adesanya. In a battle for the light heavyweight title, Blachowicz proved to be a step too far and too big for the smaller Adesanya. Statistically, Blachowicz scored mightily, earning […]

Joey Daccord Makes Second Start Of The Season
Ottawa Senators goaltender Joey Daccord will make his second start of the year in Monday's matchup against the Oilers. The 24-year-old produced a 3-1 loss to Montreal in his first start. He has also registered a couple of relief appearances to post a 2.51 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage. It would be a […]

Megan Anderson Unable To Capitalize In Co-Main Event Spot
Unable to capitalize on the title shot opportunity, Megan Anderson (11-5) was only able to last 2:03 into the first round with arguably the greatest women's MMA fighter of all-time, Amanda Nunes, losing by submission. It was extremely rough statistically for Nunes as well, only landing two significant strikes in the two-plus minutes of action. […]

Jake Fraley No Longer The Favorite To Start In Left Field
Seattle Mariners outfielder Jake Fraley entered camp as the favorite to be the starting left fielder on opening day, but the opportunity may be slipping away from him. First it was the phenom Jarred Kelenic who seemed likely to overtake Fraley, but since Kelenic went down with an injury, Taylor Trammell has now emerged as […]

Amanda Nunes Does It Again And Secures A Big First-Round Victory
Continuing her dominant reign over MMA, Amanda Nunes (21-4) secured a solid victory in her second featherweight title defense. In just 2:03 of the very first round, Nunes locked in an inverted armbar-triangle on the much taller Megan Anderson. Nunes will continue to sit as the highest or second-highest salaried fighter on DraftKings every time […]

Mikko Koskinen Starts On Monday Night
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mikko Koskinen will be between the pipes for Monday's visit of the Ottawa Senators. Koskinen was heavily used at the start of the season, but Mike Smith has earned the majority of starts since last month. The 32-year-old picked up three wins and two losses in February so it was a decent […]

Petr Yan Drops Title In Very Bizarre Situation
Petr Yan (15-2) suffered his first loss in the UFC and lost his bantamweight championship in one of the most bizarre championship fight endings in the sport's history. In the fourth round, Yan struck Sterling with an illegal knee. Though he was up on the majority of scorecards, the referee ruled the shot intentional, and […]

James Paxton To Throw Another Simulated Game
Seattle Mariners starting pitcher James Paxton will throw another simulated game Tuesday. Paxton has yet to pitch in a Cactus League matchup thus far, but the Mariners insist he is healthy, and the lack of regular action is just a matter of scheduling and logistics. Mariners fans and fantasy managers are surely eager to see […]

Aljamain Sterling Wins Championship In Bizarre Manner
In one of the wildest finishes in UFC championship history, Aljamain Sterling (20-3) walked out of the Octagon as the new UFC bantamweight champion, but not in the way he probably envisioned. Down on two of the three judges' scorecards in the fourth round, Sterling took an illegal knee to the head from Petr Yan. […]

Ville Husso Aims For Fifth Straight Victory
St. Louis Blues goaltender Ville Husso has a chance to extend his winning streak to five games in Monday's meeting with San Jose. He had a very tough time at the start of the year but has managed to completely turn it around, and owns a nice 5-2-0 record with a 3.55 goals-against average and […]

Yohan Ramirez Arrives In Camp
Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Yohan Ramirez has reported to camp after being out due to COVID-19 protocols. Ramirez is expected to be on the big league club when the season begins, having putting up a 164 ERA+ and a 27.7 percent strikeout rate in a strong 2020 season. He should make his first game appearance […]

Devan Dubnyk Earns Eighth Start Of the Season
San Jose Sharks goaltender Devan Dubnyk will make his eighth start of the season in Monday's home game against St. Louis. The veteran netminder is looking for only his second win of the season, after struggling so far with a 3.49 goals-against average and a .890 save percentage. The Sharks have been shut out twice […]

Caleb Smith Throws Three Hitless Innings Against Giants
Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Caleb Smith threw three scoreless innings on Monday, allowing just one walk while striking out three against the Giants. It was a marked improvement from his first start of the spring in which he was rocked for six runs over two innings against the Padres, as Smith looks to bounce back […]

Mark Stone, Alex Pietrangelo Both Out Of Monday's Contest
Vegas Golden Knights right wing Mark Stone and defenseman Alex Pietrangelo won't play on Monday against Minnesota. Both picked up injuries in Saturday's 4-0 win over San Jose, and whilst the team hoped to have them available, that isn't the case. Stone had a five-point outing against the Wild last week and he already has […]

Kaapo Kahkonen Tries To Slow Down Vegas
Minnesota Wild goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen will make his 13th start of the season in Monday's clash with the Vegas Golden Knights, who have racked up six straight victories. The Wild goalie is on a six-game winning streak of his own as well, so something's got to give here. Kahkonen has looked very strong with his […]

Joe Kelly Not A Lock To Be Healthy By Opening Day
Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed reliever Joe Kelly (shoulder) remains engaged in a throwing program, but he is reportedly not close to returning to game action, which shrouds his availability for Opening Day in doubt. Kelly battled right shoulder inflammation (which landed him on the IL) last year, although he finished the year with just three […]

Drew Dober Faces Tough Task and Loses In Third Round
With a tough day at the office, Drew Dober (23-10) was submitted in the third round via arm-triangle choke. In over 13 minutes of total action, Dober was only able to land 10 significant strikes (14 total strikes) and was taken down three out of the four times. Dober had his three-fight winning streak snapped, […]

Kyle Freeland Looks Good In Spring Debut
Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Kyle Freeland had a solid outing on Monday against the Cincinnati Reds in Cactus League play. The southpaw allowed no runs on two hits with a walk and two punch-outs over three innings of work. The 27-year-old lefty has come crashing back down to earth since his breakout 2018 campaign when […]

Islam Makhachev Continues To Dominate With Submission Win
Continuing his dominance in the UFC, Islam Makhachev (19-1) used his superior ground game to earn the third-round submission over Drew Dober. Statistically, Makhachev landed 15 significant strikes (102 total strikes) in 13:23 of action. He also landed three of his four takedown attempts and owned 9:26 of control time. Earning his seventh win in […]

Chicago Aims For Jake Marisnick To Return Within Week
Chicago Cubs outfielder Jake Marisnick (calf) is expected to make his Cactus League debut between March 13-15, as he has dealt with a calf setback to this point. Marisnick saw extremely limited time with the Mets last season, but he impressed in the at-bats that he was given, collecting a 159 OPS+ across 16 games. […]

Thiago Santos Loses His Third Bout In A Row
Now on the worst losing skid of his career, Thiago Santos (21-9) lost his third bout in a row, this time by unanimous decision to Aleksandar Rakic. Statistically, the numbers were close, with Santos landing 49 significant strikes (61 total strikes), both numbers higher than Rakic's. Santos mostly worked the body, landing 23 of his […]
