Cameron Champ Not Worth The Risk At Colonial

Cameron Champ has a very appealing DFS price this week at the Charles Schwab Classic, but he should be left unrostered. Champ has hit well under 60% of fairways so far in 2021 -- 57.98% to be exact -- good enough for 136th-best. Pairing that with sitting 213th out of 216 qualifiers in strokes gained […]

Sergio Garcia Should Be Left In The DFS Lobby At Colonial 

Sergio Garcia extended his missed-cut streak to four this past week at the PGA Championship. In all four events, Garcia has had a round of 75. It's pretty hard to make a cut that way. Garcia sits 110th in driving accuracy on the tour this season, and he only hit 50% of fairways last week […]

Dean Kremer Optioned To The Minors

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Dean Kremer was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday. Kremer struggled this season for Baltimore, pitching to a 6.87 ERA, including three straight starts with a home run allowed. The 25-year-old has shown flashes of strong play in the majors, pitching to a 2.76 FIP last season with 10.6 strikeouts per […]

Ryan Palmer A Major Boom-Or-Bust Candidate At Colonial

No one will be more excited when the month of May is over than Ryan Palmer. Palmer came into May with nothing worse than a T34 finish since February. However, in Palmer's three starts in May, his best finish is a T47 at the AT&T Byron Nelson. In his last seven starts at Colonial, Palmer […]

Justin Rose Has Major Upside At Colonial 

Justin Rose, the 2017 champion at Colonial, returns in 2021 in incredible form. Rose has top-11 finishes in three of his last four starts, including a T8 at the PGA Championship last week. Although Rose's stats are down across the board, he still hits over 60% of fairways and is ninth on the tour in […]

Michael Pittman Jr. Says Carson Wentz Is On A Mission

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. said that new quarterback Carson Wentz "is on a mission" to prove that his disastrous final season with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020 was an aberration. Pittman was also impressed by Wentz's arm strength during one of their throwing sessions. "But I can just tell that he's so […]

Austin Hays Placed On 10-Day Injured List

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday. Hays felt tightness in his left hamstring over the weekend and missed Monday's game, though it was believed to be a day-to-day issue. He'll need more time to recover, but it will hopefully be a minimum stint on the injured […]

Jimmy Garoppolo's Ankle Feels Great

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) said that his ankle feels great after landing on Injured Reserve last season. He also stated that he's in "attack" mode after the team used the No. 3 overall pick on quarterback Trey Lance in last month's draft. "Really hasn't been a bother since I can't remember when," […]

Yadier Molina Not In Wednesday's Lineup

St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina is taking a seat on the bench for Wednesday's day game against the Chicago White Sox. Molina is 4-for-14 with a double and a home run in his last four games. Andrew Knizner will be behind the plate for the Cardinals batting sixth against White Sox lefty Carlos Rodon.

Weekend Rehab Assignment Now Unlikely For Byron Buxton

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (hip) was believed to be progressing well enough that a rehab assignment would be on tap this weekend. That is likely no longer the case, as Buxton is still having trouble decelerating, per manager Rocco Baldelli. It sounds like Buxton is close, though the Twins don't want to push him […]

Taijuan Walker Throws Simulated Game, Expected Back Soon

New York Mets starting pitcher Taijuan Walker (side) threw a simulated game on Tuesday and is expected back without a rehab start, according to Anthony DiComo. Walker left his start last week with side tightness and landed on the 10-day injured list. Based on reports, it sounds like the injury is minor and Walker should […]

Josh Donaldson Getting A Breather Wednesday

Minnesota Twins third baseman Josh Donaldson is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Donaldson is getting a breather in the midst of a 2-for-23 slide at the plate. Hopefully, the day off can serve as a reset button for the veteran, as he was hitting well at the plate earlier […]

Davante Adams, Other Receivers Missing At OTAs

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Davante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Allen Lazard, Devin Funchess and Equanimeous St. Brown were all missing during organized team activities on Tuesday. Second-year quarterback Jordan Love, who wasn't active for a single game during his rookie season, had to work with a makeshift wide receiver crew as a result. It's definitely […]

Keegan Akin To Start Sunday For Orioles

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Keegan Akin will replace Dean Kremer in the Orioles rotation and start Sunday against the White Sox. Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Kremer will head back to the minors to work on things in a low-pressure situation. Akin is a former second-round pick who showed promise in the minors as he […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. To Miss Start Of The Season

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (knee) recently had surgery to fix a torn meniscus, according to sources. Wilson is expected to be out for four to six months, which means that he will not be available for the start of the 2021 regular season. It's obviously bad news for Wilson, but the […]

Optimism Surrounding Corey Kluber's Injury

There is optimism about New York Yankees starting pitcher Corey Kluber's (shoulder) situation, as he only reported tightness in his shoulder after leaving his start early on Tuesday night against the Toronto Blue Jays. The MRI exam that he will have on Wednesday is viewed as precautionary. Of course, the big fear hear is that […]

Luis Arraez Placed On 10-Day Injured List

Minnesota Twins infielder/outfielder Luis Arraez (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday. Arraez injured his shoulder during the past weekend but was initially considered day-to-day. The issue apparently worsened, as he was forced to miss each of the last two games against the Baltimore Orioles- and he'll now be sidelined for additional […]

Edmundo Sosa Moves Up To Fifth In Batting Order Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Edmundo Sosa is batting fifth and playing shortstop Wednesday versus White Sox lefty Carlos Rodon. The 25-year-old has been on fire batting near the bottom of the Cardinals' order and now will get his chance to bat behind Nolan Arenado. Sosa is riding a seven-game hit streak during which he is […]

Diamondbacks Recall Jon Duplantier

The Arizona Diamondbacks recalled right-handed pitcher Jon Duplantier from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday after they placed starting pitcher Taylor Widener (groin) back on the injured list with a groin strain. Duplantier didn't come out of the bullpen in relief on Tuesday night, but he was available. He's returning to the big leagues after a two-year […]

Michael Pineda Reinstated From Injured List Wednesday

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Michael Pineda (thigh) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list on Wednesday ahead of his scheduled start against the Baltimore Orioles. Pineda missed one turn through the rotation due to the recovery process following a procedure to remove an abscess in his thigh. The veteran right-hander owns a 2-2 record with […]

Nelson Cruz Returns To Lineup Versus O's

Minnesota Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz (wrist) is back in the lineup Wednesday against Orioles starter Jorge Lopez. Cruz was able to pinch-hit on Monday, but was out of the lineup again on Tuesday as he recovers from a wrist injury. The return to the lineup is a welcome sign for fantasy managers who were […]

Jack Flaherty Takes His First Loss On Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jack Flaherty took his first loss of the season on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox, dropping his record to 8-1. Flaherty lasted just 3 2/3 innings, allowing seven runs (three earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out three. The Cardinals defense made three errors in this […]

Sandy Alcantara Loses Despite Eight Strong Innings

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara was excellent on Tuesday night but ended up taking the loss as the Marlins offense could not get a run on the board. Alcantara pitched eight innings, allowing two hits and a walk while striking out four. Unfortunately, one of the hits he allowed was a Rhys Hoskins home […]

Brandon Crawford Stays Hot, Plates Three Wednesday

San Francisco Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford continued his hot May in Tuesday's 8-0 win over the Diamondbacks, going 2-for-5 with a single, a double, three RBI, and a strikeout. The veteran has had an incredible month, slashing .328/.417/.721 with seven home runs and 22 RBI. He is currently rostered in 67 percent of leagues, so […]

Yasmani Grandal Left Off Lineup Card For Second Straight Game

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal will be left off of the lineup for a second consecutive game on Wednesday versus the St. Louis Cardinals. Grandal has really struggled at the plate this season with a .136 batting average, but he has six home runs on the season and has hit three over the past […]

Rob Refsnyder Stays Hot At The Dish

Minnesota Twins infielder/outfielder Rob Refsnyder went 3-for-4 with a home run, a pair of doubles, and two RBIs in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles. Refsnyder tied the game in the second inning with an RBI double, then came around to score on a wild pitch. His second double in the fourth inning yielded […]

Evan Longoria Homers, Plates Four Tuesday

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria had a big night at the plate in Tuesday's 8-0 win over the Diamondbacks. The veteran went 3-for-4 with a single, a double, a three-run home run, four RBI, a walk, and a strikeout. Longoria has been consistent at the plate as per usual, slashing 257/.357/.456 with six […]

Tim Anderson Will Rest On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson will get a rare day off on Wednesday versus the St. Louis Cardinals. Anderson has been having a very good year, but has been mired in a 3-for-25 slump. It's just a routine day off for Anderson and hopefully it will get him back on track. Anderson is hitting […]
