Cowboys Won't Exercise Leighton Vander Esch's Option

The Dallas Cowboys will not exercise linebacker Leighton Vander Esch's fifth-year option for the 2022 season due to ongoing salary cap uncertainty. They will instead hope to sign Vander Esch to a contract extension before his current deal expires following the 2021 season. While the Cowboys could still retain LVE beyond next season, it doesn't […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to another edition of my Counter Strike: Global Offensive DFS picks.  I have been focusing on the NHL and a little bit of MLB but as we get closer to the summer months, we could see some really good CSGO tournaments pop up which means great DFS tournaments to play! As always, […]

Byron Buxton Named American League Player Of The Month

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton was named the American League Player of the Month on Monday. Buxton- who currently owns a ridiculous .408/.444/.842 slash line with eight home runs and three stolen bases- is very deserving of the honor as he put together one of the better months of his seven-year career. The star outfielder […]

Joc Pederson Activated And Leading Off On Monday

The Chicago Cubs have activated outfielder Joc Pederson (wrist) from the 10-day injured list on Monday. The slugger has been absent since April 21 and will return just in time to face his former team, the Los Angeles Dodgers. Pederson hit eight home runs during the spring, but has really struggled during the regular season. […]

Miles Mikolas To Begin A Rehab Assignment

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (shoulder) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with the Triple-A Memphis Redbirds. Mikolas hasn't pitched in a game since early in spring training, but he's been facing hitters for a couple of weeks and his shoulder has responded well. Mikolas had an elbow injury first, but when […]

Bears To Release Charles Leno

The Chicago Bears will release left tackle Charles Leno, their starter for the last seven seasons, on Monday, according to a source. The Bears traded up to draft Oklahoma State offensive tackle Teven Jenkins in the second round of this year's draft and plan to play him on the left side in his rookie season. […]

Zack Greinke Off To Uneven Start

Houston Astros starter Zack Greinke will try and bring more consistency to his game heading into the month of May. Greinke (2-1) and followed up strong performances with mediocre ones and has allowed 36 hits through his first 36 2/3 innings pitched. The veteran is still one of the most cerebral talents in the game […]

Bills Pick Up Options On Josh Allen, Tremaine Edmunds

The Buffalo Bills picked up the fifth-year options for the 2022 season on quarterback Josh Allen and linebacker Tremaine Edmunds on Monday. Neither decision comes as a surprise. Allen, the seventh overall pick in 2018, broke out last year, passing for 4,544 yards and 37 touchdowns while finishing as the runner-up in the MVP voting. […]

Carlos Correa Hoping For Power Surge

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa enjoyed a solid month of April but is hoping to provide more power moving forward. Through his first 106 at-bats, Correa is slashing .283/.336/.462 but has only one home run in his last 65 at-bats. The impending free agent is slugging only .397 over his last 15 games as the […]

Mike Trout Continues To Punish Opposing Pitchers

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout is hitting .458 (11-for-24) over his last seven games heading into Monday's action. The former MVP is off to an otherworldly start, slashing .413/.515/.775 through his first 80 at-bats with seven home runs, eight doubles, 16 walks, 16 runs batted in and 20 runs scored. He is even more […]

Falcons Won't Pick Up Hayden Hurst's Fifth-Year Option

The Atlanta Falcons will not pick up the fifth-year option for the 2022 season on tight end Hayden Hurst, according to a source. Hurst will become a free agent after this season.

AJ Pollock Hopes To Parlay Huge Performance

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder AJ Pollock will head into Monday night's game against the Cubs coming off a monster performance. Pollock is fresh off a 3-for-6 game against the Brewers with two home runs and eight runs batted in. Pollock popped a grand slam and a three-run bomb in the game on Sunday, catapulting his […]

Andrew Heaney Continues To Disappoint

Los Angeles Angels starter Andrew Heaney will try and rebound from a shaky first month of the season heading into May. It's the same story for Heaney (1-2); excellent talent but mediocre results. His K/9 rate (12.75) through his first 24 innings is fantastic. His HR/9 (1.50) rate, however, is troubling. Heaney has flashed some […]

Falcons Pick Up Calvin Ridley's Fifth-Year Option

The Atlanta Falcons picked up wide receiver Calvin Ridley's $11.1 million fifth-year option for the 2022 season on Monday. This comes as no surprise, as he's been excellent for the Falcons since entering the league as a first-rounder in 2018. The 26-year-old is a great route-runner and has a nose for the end zone. If […]

Raisel Iglesias Hoping To Get Season On Track

Los Angeles Angels closer Raisel Iglesias will be looking to put a disappointing first month of the season behind him heading into the month of May. The talented reliever is 4-of-6 in save chances and a couple of rocky outings has him looking at a 6.00 ERA through his first 10 appearances. Iglesias has punched […]

Dylan Bundy Still Searching For First Win

Los Angeles Angels starter Dylan Bundy allowed only two runs through six innings on Sunday against the Mariners but picked up the loss. Bundy (0-3) has allowed two or fewer runs in three of his first six starts but is still looking for his first victory. Bundy is being counted on to be the anchor […]

Rashad Weaver Charged With Assault In April

Tennessee Titans rookie defensive end Rashad Weaver, the team's fourth-round pick last Saturday, was charged last Friday with one count of simple assault in connection with an incident in April in Pittsburgh. The 23-year-old is accused of punching a woman. The woman was later diagnosed with a concussion and had proof that she was pregnant […]

David Fletcher Enjoying Seven-Game Hitting Streak

Los Angeles Angels second baseman David Fletcher will try and extend his hit streak to eight games when the team takes on the Rays in Anaheim on Monday. Fletcher is hitting only .266 during the hit streak but has at least one base-knock in 10 of his last 11 games. Fletcher needs to keep his […]

Titans Won't Exercise Rashaan Evans' Fifth-Year Option

The Tennessee Titans informed Drew Rosenhaus, the agent for linebacker Rashaan Evans, that they will not be exercising his fifth-year option for the 2022 season "due to ongoing salary cap uncertainty and instead hope to sign Rashaan to a contract extension before his current deal expires in 2022." Adding another season to his contract would […]

Julio Urias Off To Great Start

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Julio Urias is off to a great start through his first six performances. Urias (4-0) was fantastic on Sunday, allowing only one run through seven innings pitched while striking out 10 Milwaukee Brewers hitters. Performance is beginning to match the talent for the 24-year-old, as the left-hander is posting his lowest […]

Kenley Jansen Needs To Refine Control

Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen will be looking to pick up more saves when the team opens up a series with the Cubs on Monday. Jansen is 5-for-6 on save chances through the first month of the season with 1.06 WHIP, a 2.38 ERA and is holding opponents to an impressive .086 batting average. […]

Will Smith's Offense Beginning To Turn Around

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith is slowly getting his offensive game together heading into the month of May. Smith will carry a five-game hitting streak into Monday's action against the Cubs and is 9-for-29 (.310) with one triple, one home run and three doubles over his last eight starts. Smith really impressed during last […]

Max Muncy Scuffling At The Plate

Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Max Muncy will look to break out of a huge slump heading into the team's matchup against the Cubs Monday night. It has been a really tough stretch for Muncy, posting only one hit in last 20 at-bats and 4-for-47 (.085) over his last 15 games. Muncy enjoyed a strong […]

Paul Campbell Suspended 80 Games

Miami Marlins pitcher Paul Campbell was suspended 80 games by Major League Baseball after testing positive for Dehydrochlormethyltestosterone. The suspension is effective immediately. Campbell may be proof that taking performance enhancing drugs does not immediately make a player successful, as he had an 8.74 ERA in 11 1/3 innings of work. Campbell got one start […]

Clayton Kershaw Enjoys Fantastic April

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Clayton Kershaw has his season off to a great start heading into the month of the May. Through his first six starts, Kershaw (4-2) is posting a 0.91 WHIP, a 2.09 ERA and a 8:1/K:BB rate through 38 2/3 innings pitched. Since his first start of the season, the future Hall […]
