He was scheduled to become a restricted free agent next month, but he'll remain […]

The Tennessee Titans are releasing wide receiver Adam Humphries on Thursday, according to a source. The move saves the Titans around $4.47 million in salary cap space for the upcoming 2021 season.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (2/25/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have a modest six-game slate, a fairly typical size for a Thursday night. The less-than-ideal aspect of the ledger for DFS purposes is that it tilts more toward non-competitive matchups that could lead to some star players seeing less than a full allotment of minutes. A couple of the best defensive teams in the […]

Kevin Cash Raving About Austin Meadows

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash continues to rave about outfielder Austin Meadows and how he looks really good after dropping weight in the offseason. Meadows played in only 36 games last year while dealing with COVID-19 and a Grade 2 oblique strain, but the 25-year-old broke out in his last full season in 2019 […]

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hamstring) took batting practice on the field on Thursday but remained out of infield drills.

Chicago Cubs third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant is open to negotiating a contract to remain with the team.

Russell Wilson Hasn't Demanded A Trade

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has not demanded a trade, according to his agent, Mark Rodgers. Wilson wants to stay in Seattle and has a no-trade clause, but if a trade were considered, the only teams he would play for would be the Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Las Vegas Raiders or Chicago Bears. Another […]

Nick Senzel Will Be Everyday Center Fielder

Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell confirmed on Thursday that Nick Senzel will be the team's everyday center fielder heading into the 2021 season. Bell later added, "At one point, everyday may have meant 162 games, but that's not what I mean. We have four outfielders who need to play." With Senzel slated to see regular […]

Bobby Portis Expected To Play Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (elbow) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He suffered an elbow laceration on Tuesday, but it doesn't sound like something that is going to cost him playing time. He should resume his role as the backup center on Thursday. Surprisingly, Portis has carried decent […]

Maxi Kleber Probable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He has missed each of the last two games due to a left ankle sprain. However, it sounds like Kleber is finally ready to get back on the court. His return to action would mean less playing time […]

Kristaps Porzingis Doubtful Versus Sixers

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (back) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was listed as questionable on Wednesday, but it sounds like the Mavs plan on giving Porzingis more time to rest. Dwight Powell and Willie Cauley-Stein would be asked to play more, assuming Porzingis is out. Neither are […]

Didi Gregorius Expected In Camp On Friday

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Didi Gregorius is expected to report to camp on Friday, according to Scott Lauber of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Gregorius has been out due to visa issues, but manager Joe Girardi said this shouldn't affect his ability to be ready for the season. Gregorius had a solid first year in Philadelphia slashing .284/.339/.488 […]

Davis Bertans Might Sit Thursday

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (knee) listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He struggled in Wednesday's contest, which could partly be due to the knee soreness. Deni Avdija would benefit the most, assuming Bertans is unable to suit up. Avdija would have decent streaming appeal with extended playing time.

John Lynch Endorses Jimmy Garoppolo As Starting QB

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo remains in the team's plans as the starter under center. Lynch said that there wasn't any doubt that Garoppolo would be the team's starter in 2021 if he's healthy. There have been questions as to whether the Niners would go in a different […]

Framber Valdez Could Become Mainstay In Rotation

Houston Astros left-handed pitcher Framber Valdez, who led the team in innings pitched and strikeouts in 2020, posted a 3.57 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in 70 2/3 innings while making four stellar starts over 24 frames in the postseason.

Broncos Release Jurrell Casey Thursday

The Denver Broncos released defensive tackle Jurrell Casey on Thursday, according to a source.

He's entering […]

Marco Gonzales Named Opening Day Starter For Mariners

Seattle Mariners manager Scott Servais announced on Sunday that lefty Marco Gonzales would be the Mariners Opening Day starter for 2021, the third consecutive year in which Gonzales has received the honor. After yet another steady, under-the-radar season in 2020 in which he posted a 3.10 ERA and 0.95 WHIP, the consistent Gonzales should be […]

Free-agent defensive lineman J.J. Watt has received contract offers from multiple teams, according to league sources.

Jack Flaherty Named Opening Day Starter

St. Louis Cardinals manager Mike Shildt announced that right-handed pitcher Jack Flaherty will get the Opening Day start against the Cincinnati Reds. Flaherty had a bit of a down season in the abbreviated 2020 campaign, posting a 4.91 ERA, but he was excellent in 2019, with a 2.75 ERA to go with 11 wins. The […]

LeSean McCoy Wants To Keep Playing

Tampa Bay Buccaneers impending free-agent running back LeSean McCoy, who has won two Super Bowl rings in the last two years with the Chiefs and Buccaneers despite playing a single snap in either championship game, wants to continue playing in 2021.

Edwin Rios Expected To See More Playing Time In 2021

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Edwin Rios will not be an everyday player in 2021 with the newly re-signed Justin Turner back in the fold. Nevertheless, Rios has serious sleeper upside, as the Dodgers will try to preserve the health of the 36-year-old Turner. Rios slashed .250/.301/.645 with eight homers and 17 RBI across 76 at-bats […]

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert fell just one rebound shy of a double-double in 27 minutes of action on Wednesday. Gobert scored 18 points with nine boards and a block in a 114-89 win over the Lakers. The only thing that's remotely close to limiting the All-Star big man's fantasy value is his own team, […]

Jordan Clarkson Scores 18 Points With Four Threes

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson had another great night from beyond the arc in a 114-89 win over the Lakers. Clarkson drained 4 of 10 three-point attempts, scoring 18 points along with four rebounds, two assists, and no turnovers- the sixth time he's committed zero in a game this year.
