Anthony Bass To See Early Save Opportunities

Miami Marlins pitcher Anthony Bass will get the ball with the game on the line — at least early on in 2021. The veteran journeyman hurler had a strong spring with a K-BB of 8-3 in 8.1 innings and he allowed just two runs (2.16 ERA). Bass spent last season with the Toronto Blue Jays […]

Kansas City Royals pitcher Greg Holland doesn't have a clear path to saves in 2021 but he's among a group of four arms that are the favorites for high-leverage innings to begin the season. Other names in the closer conversation include Scott Barlow, Jesse Hahn, and Josh Staumont. Manager Mike Matheny advised there would be […]

Sam Burns Looks To Rebound At Valero Texas Open

After posting an impressive third-place finish at the Genesis Invitational last month, Sam Burns has missed the cut in his last two starts.

Corey Conners Set To Defend Valero Title

With last year's Valero Texas Open canceled due to COVID-19, Corey Conners heads to San Antonio this week as the event's official defending champion. Conners is in a great position to keep the Valero crown, as he's been dazzling throughout 2021. The Canadian leads this week's field in strokes gained total and ball striking over […]

Rickie Fowler Continues To Struggle

Rickie Fowler heads to San Antonio for this week's Valero Texas Open in scuffling form. The fan favorite has struggled throughout 2021 and currently finds himself out of next week's Masters field.

Daniel Hudson, Tanner Rainey Struggle Through Spring

Washington Nationals relief pitchers Daniel Hudson and Tanner Rainey, both of whom are near the top of the team's bullpen depth chart, both had difficult spring trainings. Hudson allowed three home runs in 5 2/3 innings while Rainey walked four batters in 2 1/3. Tiny samples, of course, and Rainey was strong in 2020 with […]

Erik Karlsson Compiles Two Goals For San Jose On Monday

San Jose Sharks defenseman Erik Karlsson tallied two goals on Monday as his team beat Minnesota 4-3 in a shootout.

Ryan Palmer Has Mixed Results At Valero

Ryan Palmer is set to tee it up in this week's Valero Texas Open. The Texan has mixed results in his previous Valero starts.

Mark Scheifele Continues To Excel For Winnipeg

Winnipeg Jets centerman Mark Scheifele has been on point for Winnipeg all season. Scheifele recorded two goals and an assist to help the Jets beat Calgary 5-1 Monday night.

Tony Finau Headlines Valero Texas Open

With Dustin Johnson withdrawal, Tony Finau has become one of the top fantasy options in this week's Valero Texas Open.

Leonard nearly notched a triple-double, scoring 23 points with nine rebounds and eight assists, chipping in two steals in 36 minutes.

Josh Lindblom Will Begin Season In Bullpen

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Josh Lindblom will begin the season in the bullpen. He was competing for a spot in the rotation, but instead, Freddy Peralta has won the final starting job. The 33-year-old was just mediocre in the spring with a 4.66 ERA thus far in the Cactus League. Lindblom can safely be ignored in […]

Andrew Wiggins Delivers Strong Two-Way Performance

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins put in a solid all-around effort in Monday's win over the Bulls. Wiggins dropped 21 points with five assists, three rebounds, three treys, two steals, and a block in 35 minutes of a 116-102 victory.

Kolten Wong Locked Into Leadoff Spot

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Kolten Wong figures to see quite a few first pitches this season, as he has hit leadoff in every game he has appeared in this spring.
