Tampa Bay Rays prospect Josh Lowe had a strong performance on Tuesday with three hits, including a home run. The 23-year-old outfielder also drove in five runs in the game.

Si Woo Kim's Uneven Form May Mean Less Potential At Colonial

Si Woo Kim just could not make the cut last week at the PGA as holes 14-18 were rough on his ability to drive the ball consistently. Kim is accomplished around the greens ranking 24th in strokes gained at 0.32. However, the rest of his metrics are mostly just okay. It is partly why lately, […]

Jordan Luplow Homers Tuesday

Cleveland Indians outfielder Jordan Luplow went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday night's 4-1 win over the Detroit Tigers.

Chris Kirk Trying To Find His Form At Colonial

May was just not kind to Chris Kirk as he played at the Valspar and then the PGA Championship. He missed the cut both times and it was not all that close either (missed by three strokes at the PGA). This week at the Charles Schwab might be good for Kirk as the course is […]

Roman Quinn Activated From The Injured List

The Philadelphia Phillies activated outfielder Roman Quinn (finger) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. Quinn swapped places with Bryce Harper (forearm), who was placed on the injured list with a left forearm contusion. Quinn missed about three weeks due to a lacerated right index finger.

Bell's Best Bets - MLB Betting Picks for 5/26/21 (Premium Content)

Hey RotoBallers! I felt like Week 8 was my time to get back on track. The number 8 is my go-to/lucky number after all. Well, it didn't quite turn out that way. Wednesday was a great day, but everything that surrounded it, including a bloody Sunday, brought us crashing back down to earth. I'm changing […]

Reid Detmers Strikes Out 10 At Double-A, Value Rising

Los Angeles Angels pitching prospect Reid Detmers had his best professional start on Tuesday when he struck out 10 batters over six innings of work. The right-hander was nearly untouchable and he allowed just one hit and two walks during the game. Detmers' previous high for strikeouts was set on May 11 with nine over […]

C.T. Pan Could Be A Bit Rusty At Colonial

C.T. Pan did not play in the PGA last week and has not played since the Wells Fargo Championship three weeks ago. He did finish 18th there after missing the cut in three straight tournaments including The Masters (7th in 2020). The concern is can Pan put his game together again. The golfer is average […]

James Karinchak Records Sixth Save Tuesday

Cleveland Indians relief pitcher James Karinchak recorded his sixth save of 2021 in Tuesday night's 4-1 win over the Detroit Tigers by allowing no earned runs on one hit and one walk while striking out two. Karinchak was brought into the ninth with men on first and second and nobody out and allowed an inherited […]

Branden Grace Has A Little Value At Colonial

Branden Grace does not do anything very well on the tour. His numbers balance out to around average and yet he was in contention on Sunday at the PGA before a final-round 78. So, there is potential but something seems to short circuit in tournaments not named the Puerto Rico Open (his only 2021 win). […]

Aaron Civale Has Strong Outing Tuesday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Aaron Civale went eight innings allowing one earned run on six hits and a walk while striking out six in Tuesday night's 4-1 win over the Detroit Tigers.

Harold Varner III Offers Some Upside At Colonial

Harold Varner III is excellent from tee-to-green but once he gets on the green, the adventure just begins. His average putting (.031 strokes gained -- 111th) may let him down this week at the Charles Schwab. If the PGA last week was any indicator, Varner III was able to get on the green but had […]

Kent Emanuel Experiences Elbow Discomfort On Tuesday

Cameron Tringale Should Bounce Back At Colonial

Last week was a disaster for Cameron Tringale as he shot an 82 on Friday to miss the cut at the PGA. That included the final five holes where he went +13 including a 10 on hole number 16. He was briefly leading at -5 thru 13 last Friday. Sometimes it just happens. The wind […]

Ian Poulter Will Need Putter To Make Noise At Colonial

Ian Poulter's putter is a weapon. His strokes gained ranks 9th on the tour and were one of the reasons why he meandered around the top-30 at the PGA last week. The problem for Poulter is getting to the green. He was another golfer who struggled to even drive the ball 280 yards at the […]

Lee Westwood Still An Enigma Heading Into Colonial

Lee Westwood frustrated last week at the PGA blowing up what looked like a promising weekend with a Sunday 77. Everything in his game went off-kilter especially his tee-to-green play where he lost several strokes (five bogeys in all). The Charles Schwab suits his game a little bit better where he does not have to […]

Henrik Stenson One To Stay Away From At Colonial

Henrik Stenson was three-under-par at one point during the first round of the PGA and then it unraveled again. Stenson stumbled his way to a Thursday 73 then just barely made the cut with a Friday 76. It did not get much better over the weekend and Stenson was outside the top-60 again when all […]
