Alec Burks Extends Scoring Streak

New York Knicks guard Alec Burks made it five straight games with 20-plus points in Saturday's win over Milwaukee, shooting 6-for-12 from downtown en route to 21 points. He put in a lot of work in other areas as well, finishing with 10 rebounds, five assists and two blocks. The Knicks have won four of […]

Isaiah Stewart Gets Close To Double-Double Off Bench

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart was flirting with a double-double in Saturday's loss to Washington, finishing with 11 points and eight rebounds off the bench in 21 minutes. He shot 5-for-9 from the field, including 1-for-3 from downtown, with one assist and one block. For some reason, Stewart earned only six minutes of action in […]

Bradley Beal Exits Early Saturday Night

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal logged only 21 minutes in Saturday's win over the Pistons, leaving the game early in the third quarter due to a hip injury. He was already questionable for the game with a sore foot, so the NBA's leading scorer appears to be pretty banged up right now. Beal managed […]

Russell Westbrook Records 15th Triple-Double

Washington Wizards point guard Russell Westbrook recorded his 15th triple-double of the season in Saturday's win over Detroit, scoring 19 points with 19 rebounds and 10 assists. He shot 8-for-20 from the field in 35 minutes of action and committed six turnovers. Westbrook now boasts four triple-doubles in six games, and he needs just one […]

NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: Food City Dirt Race - Monkey Knife Fight

Sunday features the Food City Dirt Race from Bristol. Kyle Larson, Denny Hamlin, Ryan Blaney, Kyle Busch, and Martin Truex Jr will make up the top five to start the race. Monkey Knife Fight has an extremely easy fantasy point system: 0.1 points for each lap led and then a set amount of points for […]

Cardinals Announce Their Starting Rotation

St. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Shildt named the members of his starting rotation on Saturday. With several injuries to members of their pitching staff, especially Miles Mikolas (shoulder) and Kwang Hyun Kim (back), it was unclear who would be in the rotation to start the season. Saturday's announcement cleared that up. The first five games […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Dicey Pick For Bristol

Though Ricky Stenhouse Jr. has been pretty steady the past few races, the dirt track may be too much for Stenhouse Jr. on Sunday. Maintaining track position will not be easy. The JTG Daugherty Racing driver ended up 35th in practice session one and 19th on Friday in practice session two. This partially illustrated what […]

Ryan Newman May Move Up On Sunday At Food City Dirt Race

Ryan Newman qualified 14th at Bristol on Sunday but it was that 11th place finish in practice number one that drew some notice. Then there was the 22nd place result in Friday's practice session. One key thing is the momentum carried from last week in Atlanta. Newman was able to stay on the lead lap. […]

Kurt Busch Worth A Risk At Bristol On Sunday

Kurt Busch starts from the 28th position on Sunday at the Food City Dirt Race. The Chip Ganassi Racing driver has won six times in 40 career races. Also, Busch finished in the top-ten during four of the previous five appearances at Bristol. That alone gives some a little hope at place differential upside. The […]

Daniel Suarez Not A Factor Again DFS Wise For Bristol

Daniel Suarez will entice some in DFS on. Sunday with his 11th place finish in the final practice session on Friday. However, the TrackHouse Racing driver qualified 18th on Sunday for the Food City Dirt Race. Suarez has not finished inside the top-15 all season which limits his place differential possibilities. When he was starting […]

Chris Buescher A Challenge To Utilize In DFS At Bristol

Chris Buescher starting in 11th at the Food City Dirt Race is a bit of a hindrance this week. He did finish in the top-ten during the final practice session on Friday. The positive aspect is that the Roush Fenway Racing driver did finish seventh in Atlanta last week. Buescher had a tough time staying […]

Jon Berti Hits A Triple On Saturday

Miami Marlins super utility man Jon Berti had another good game in a Grapefruit League matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday. Berti got the start at third base and went 2-for-2 with a triple and an RBI. He's hitting a strong .435 with a 1.168 OPS in the spring and has gotten playing […]

Michael McDowell Has A Glimpse Of Potential At Bristol

Michael McDowell did not have a good start to the week when he finished 30th in the first practice session on the dirt track. His pit crew made adjustments and so did McDowell. The result was an eighth-place finish on Friday and gave the Front Row Motorsports driver some much-needed confidence. He starts 16th on […]

Garrett Cooper Gets Three Hits On Saturday

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Garrett Cooper had another excellent game on Saturday against the St. Louis Cardinals. He started at first base and went 3-for-3 with two doubles and a run scored. Cooper lifted his spring batting average to .432 and his OPS to 1.191. He should get plenty of at bats once the season […]

Aric Almirola Expects To Have Long Day At Bristol

Aric Almirola has had a long, long season already. Sunday, he starts outside the top-10 again at Bristol. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver begins in the 23rd position. There is little to expect here as his season-high finish is 11th. Also, Almirola has not led a single lap this season. Honestly, he has barely been in […]

Jack Flaherty Throws Three Innings On Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jack Flaherty started Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Miami Marlins and lasted three innings. He allowed one (unearned) run on three hits, striking out four without walking a batter. Flaherty has had an up-and-down spring, as his 5.40 ERA shows, but this outing showed what he is capable of […]

Chase Elliott Carries Potential At Bristol

Chase Elliott has had a rough 2021, to say the least. After his engine blew last week at Atlanta, he starts 26th this week at the Food City Dirt Race. The one-piece of good news is that Elliott should have excellent potential for place differential. The Hendrick Motorsports driver finished sixth and seventh at the […]

Anthony Bender Fires Another Scoreless Inning

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Anthony Bender tossed another scoreless inning in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Bender did allow two hits, but only needed 16 pitches to get through his inning of work. The 26-year-old fireballer has not allowed a run all spring and has 10 strikeouts through 8 1/3 innings […]

Chase Briscoe Could Surprise At Food City Dirt Race

Chase Briscoe had one of those fast cars during the two practice sessions. The No.14 Ford finished in the top-ten during practice with a fifth on Friday. Briscoe starts all the way down in the 25th position. If his car can sustain what has been seen in qualifying, then Briscoe will be a great DFS […]

Sandy Alcantara Goes Three Innings In His Final Tune Up

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara tossed three innings in a Grapefruit League game against the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday. It was a shortened final tune up before his Opening Day start. Alcantara gave up one run on three hits, striking out three without issuing a walk. He wraps up an excellent spring with […]

Joey Logano May Slide Back A Bit Sunday At Bristol

Joey Logano begins in tenth for the Food City Dirt Race on Sunday. The Team Penske driver has won twice previously at Bristol but has been outside the top-ten while going backwards in three straight races. His practice runs were okay but nothing spectacular. Logano has not finished on the lead lap in two of […]

William Byron Has DFS Consistency Going Into Bristol

William Byron consolidated his victory at Homestead and parlayed that into three consecutive eighth-place finishes. That consistency expects to serve him well as he starts eighth at the Food City Dirt Race. The Hendrick Motorsports driver had one of the top cars in practice on Friday which only improves his prospects even on dirt. While […]

Kevin Harvick May Have Tough Time At Bristol

Kevin Harvick will begin in sixth on Sunday at the Food City Dirt Race. However, the Stewart-Haas Racing driver may not stay there. Though the driver has won three times at Bristol, he was only okay at the practice sessions on Friday. If the washout had not happened Saturday night, it was possible Harvick would […]

Alex Bowman An Intriguing Pick At Bristol

Alex Bowman benefits from last week's third-place finish at Atlanta. He starts from the seventh spot at the Food City Dirt Race. For that reason, Bowman is on the radar at 20 to 1 odds. There is one thing that will temper some expectations. The Hendrick Motorsports driver has not led a single lap in […]

Austin Dillon One To Watch On Sunday At Bristol

Austin Dillon begins from ninth on Sunday at the Food City Dirt Race. Dillon carries 10 to 1 odds because of his previous success at dirt races and some road courses. Dillon finished sixth last week in the Richard Childress Racing car. The No.3 car was one of the five fastest on the Bristol track […]

Francis Ngannou Wins UFC Heavyweight Championship

Francis Ngannou defeated Stipe Miocic at UFC 260 to become the new heavyweight champion. Miocic was completely dominated throughout the contest, nearly getting finished in Round 1 before getting knocked out toward the end of Round 2. With a win on Saturday night, The Predator will potentially square off with Jon Jones sometime this Summer. […]

Christopher Bell Likely To Excel At Bristol

Christopher Bell has a ton of experience racing on dirt and figures to contend at the Food City Dirt Race on Sunday. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver qualifies 15th which could help in terms of place differential. Bell had 11 to 2 odds which is not surprising given he had the second-fastest car during Friday's […]
