Javier Baez Crushed Tenth Home Run
Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez hit his tenth home run of the season on Wednesday versus the Washington Nationals. Baez didn't start the contest, but pinch-hit in the bottom of the ninth inning. Baez crushed a solo home run off of Brad Hand and cut the lead to 4-3 at the time, but it wouldn't […]

Brian Anderson Goes Yard On Wednesday
Miami Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson hit a home run in Wednesday's win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Anderson seems to be slowly breaking out of a slump that he's been in since the season started. He ended up 1-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI, all on his second inning solo shot. Anderson was […]

Yimi Garcia Earns His Eighth Save On Wednesday
Miami Marlins closer Yimi Garcia earned his eighth save of the season in Wednesday's win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Garcia had to get four outs, pitching the last 1 1/3 innings of the game. He allowed two hits but also struck out two, throwing 22 pitches (16 strikes) to deliver another win for rookie starter […]

Trevor Rogers Shines Again On Wednesday
Miami Marlins rookie starting pitcher Trevor Rogers was excellent again in Wednesday's win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Rogers threw 7 2/3 innings, allowing just one run on five hits and two walks while striking out eight. The only blemish was a solo home run off the bat of Andrew McCutchen in the sixth inning. Rogers […]

Corey Kluber Pitches No-Hitter
New York Yankees starting pitcher Corey Kluber hurled a no-hitter in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Texas Rangers. Kluber fanned nine batters in his nine innings of work and was just one walk away from a perfect game. It's the sixth no-hitter of the season in the MLB and the 12th in Yankees history- the […]

Reese McGuire Has Two-Hit Day
Toronto Blue Jays catcher Reese McGuire hit a pair of singles on Wednesday, finishing the day going 2-for-3 with a run scored against the Red Sox.

Marcus Semien Clubs 10th Homer
Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Marcus Semien clubbed his 10th homer of the season on Wednesday as the team fell to the Red Sox 7-3.

Ross Stripling Gets Roughed Up By Red Sox
Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Ross Stripling had a rough day at the office on Wednesday, giving up six earned runs to the Red Sox in a 7-3 loss. He surrendered five runs in the first inning and served up three of his eight hits allowed for homers as he lasted just 3 2/3 innings […]

Dustin Johnson Hobbles Into PGA Championship
It has been a disappointing stretch of golf for Dustin Johnson, who has failed to record a top-10 finish over his last six events. While that might bring gamers some trepidation on what to do with the big-hitting American, our more significant concern would come from a knee injury that forced the 36-year-old out of […]

Jason Heyward Departs Wednesday’s Game Due To Injury
Chicago Cubs outfielder Jason Heyward (hamstring) exited Wednesday's contest against the Nationals. The veteran was experiencing tightness in his left hamstring, which isn't good news considering that the team was also without Anthony Rizzo (back) heading into the matchup against Washington. The 31-year-old has seen better days; however, batting just .184 throughout 125 at-bats this […]

Rory McIlroy Returns To 2012 Victory Site
Fresh off of his win at the Wells Fargo Championship, Rory McIlroy will look to keep the positive vibes going at Kiawah Island - a venue where the Irishman lapped the field by eight shots during the 2012 PGA Championship. Those two key factors have placed McIlroy as the man to beat at $11,500 on […]

Chris Sales Continues To Progress Toward Return
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale (elbow) continues to make progress toward a return to the team. The veteran has been pleased with how he has felt after throwing sessions, and it is good news for fantasy managers who are anxiously awaiting his return. The lefty had Tommy John Surgery back in March of […]

Chris Davis Likely Done For The Year
Baltimore Orioles first baseman Chris Davis (hip) is expected to miss the remainder of the season. According to general manager Mike Elias, the veteran underwent left hip surgery on Wednesday, and Davis will spend the next four or five months recovering.

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to another edition of my Counter Strike: Global Offensive DFS picks.

Zach Eflin Throws Six Efficient Innings Versus Marlins
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zach Eflin allowed two runs in six innings while whiffing six in a start versus the Marlins on Wednesday. Eflin scattered six hits and didn't walk a batter, but he was pinch-hit for in the sixth inning ending his night at only 89 pitches. Eflin threw first-pitch strikes to 17 of […]

Richie Martin Out Up To Three Months
Baltimore Orioles shortstop Richie Martin (wrist) will be out for up to three months. The speedster is currently dealing with a broken left wrist, an injury suffered on Tuesday at Triple-A Norfolk. This isn't good news for the 26-year-old, especially after he missed the entire 2020 campaign with a break in the other wrist. Fantasy […]

Madison Bumgarner Expected To Be Ready For Next Start
Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Madison Bumgarner (groin) is expected to be ready for his next turn through the rotation. The veteran is considered day-to-day after exiting Monday's start against the Dodgers after just four innings on the bump. The lefty is sporting a 4.15 ERA while logging a record of four wins and three losses […]

Caris LeVert Remains Out Against Washington
Indiana Pacers guard Caris LeVert will remain out on Thursday against Washington. Levert wasn't in the lineup for Tuesday's play-in matchup against Charlotte while adhering to the league's health and safety protocols surrounding COVID-19, so his designation against the Wizards isn't shocking by any means. The 26-year-old is in danger of missing more games throughout […]

Johneshwy Fargas Removed From Game Wednesday
New York Mets outfielder Johneshwy Fargas was replaced as part of a double switch with two outs in the bottom of the fifth, according to Justin Toscano of NorthJersey.com. It's unclear at this time if it was due to injury, but Fargas' exit came right after he made a throw to the infield on a […]

Malcolm Brogdon Questionable For Play-In Final
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Wizards. No surprise here, primarily since the veteran has been dealing with the right hamstring strain for most of May. He carried the same designation heading into Tuesday's play-in blowout against the Hornets and looked good, finishing with 16 points throughout 21 […]

Trevor Cahill Exits Start With Apparent Injury
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Trevor Cahill exited his start on Wednesday with team trainers in the second inning, according to Jake Crouse of MLB.com. Cahill exited the game after hitting Cardinals shortstop Edmundo Sosa with a pitch to load the bases with nobody out in the top of the second. He's been inconsistent on the […]

Ryan LaMarre Exits Game With Apparent Hamstring Injury
New York Yankees outfielder Ryan LaMarre (leg) was forced to leave Wednesday's game early with an apparent right hamstring injury. LaMarre grounded out to the shortstop in the top of the third inning and abruptly pulled up, appearing to grab his right hamstring.

The youngster hasn't missed a cut in nine 2021 starts and has posted a pair of runner-up finishes among those. Both long - fifth in Driving Distance - and relatively accurate off […]

Webb Simpson Comes With Risk At PGA Championship
Normally a rock-solid DFS option, rostering Webb Simpson comes with some risk this week. The PGA Championship's 7,872-yard Ocean Course layout feels like a tall order for the light-hitting Simpson and he also recently withdrew from his hometown Wells Fargo Championship with a neck injury. Not to mention Simpson shot 79-72 (ouch) to miss the […]

Viktor Hovland Heads To PGA Riding High
After a win at Mayakoba to close out 2020, Viktor Hovland has kept the pedal to the floor in '21. He's posted a pair of runner-up finishes this year, as well as T3 results in each of his last two starts. He heads to Kiawah Island in red-hot form and ranks third in this week's […]

Will Zalatoris Set To Make PGA Championship Debut
It's been a meteoric rise for Will Zalatoris since he logged a surprise top-10 finish in the U.S. Open last year. Zalatoris made more waves this year with a runner-up result at the Masters in April. He'll try to keep his major streak alive this week on the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island, as he's […]
