Carlos Santana (1B/DH, KC) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 260 CURRENT ADP: ~292 overall ANALYSIS: Kansas City Royals first baseman/designated hitter Carlos Santana gets overlooked every single season. The reason is because of rotisserie bias (Roto is the more popular format), but Santana is always such a value in points leagues, where hitters lose points for strikeouts but are awarded points […]

Ryan Mountcastle (1B/OF, BAL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 130 CURRENT ADP: ~146 overall ANALYSIS: The frontrunner for 2021 AL Rookie of the Year may be a poor fielder but a full season at Camden Yards should yield profits. The 2020 small sample brought us a .333/.386/.492 slash with five homers over 140 PAs, but much of that was […]

Bills Agree To Terms With Levi Wallace

The Buffalo Bills re-signed cornerback Levi Wallace to an undisclosed one-year deal. The 25-year-old became an unrestricted free agent after the team didn't tender him a contract as a restricted free agent. Wallace signed as an undrafted rookie out of Alabama in 2018 and eventually got to start across from Tre'Davious White that same season. […]

Bengals Re-Sign Cornerback Tony Brown

The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed cornerback Tony Brown to an undisclosed deal. The team was also set to host former Minnesota Vikings offensive tackle Riley Reiff on a free-agent visit on Wednesday.

Eduardo Escobar (3B, ARI) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 260 CURRENT ADP: ~278 overall ANALYSIS: Eduardo Escobar was a player that was expected to regress from the big year he had in 2019. The juiced ball really assisted the power that year and it was a clear outlier. However, we saw Escobar regress a little too much in 2020. He […]

Titans Re-Sign Anthony Firkser

The Tennessee Titans re-signed tight end Anthony Firkser to an undisclosed one-year deal. The Titans also brought back fellow tight end Geoff Swaim earlier this week. Firkser isn't much of a blocker, but he had career-highs in catches (39) and receiving yards (387) while also finding the end zone one time last season. There's a […]

Colin Moran (1B, PIT) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 375 CURRENT ADP: ~411 overall ANALYSIS: The departure of Josh Bell in a trade to the Washington Nationals has opened up a full-time spot at first base for Moran who put up his most impressive power numbers last year. Moran led the Pirates in 2020 with 10 homers in 52 games (having hit […]

Deshaun Watson Accused Of Sexual Assault

A third civil lawsuit filed against Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson accuses him of sexually assaulting a massage therapist by forcing her to have oral sex with him in December of last year.

David Andrews Signs Four-Year Deal To Return To Patriots

The New England Patriots re-signed starting center David Andrews to an undisclosed four-year deal on Thursday, according to a source.

The 28-year-old Andrews spent the first six seasons of his career with […]

Jacksonville Jaguars left tackle Cam Robinson officially accepted his franchise tag on Thursday, according to a source.

James McCann (C, NYM) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 180 CURRENT ADP: ~190 overall ANALYSIS: Despite being a career .249 hitter,  James McCann really came into his own at the plate once he left Detroit. Over the past two seasons with the White Sox, he owns the second-highest BA among catchers and the fifth-most runs scored, and that was […]

C.J. Cron (1B, COL) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 235 CURRENT ADP: ~294 overall ANALYSIS:  Cron will enter his age-31 season having only logged more than 500 PAs once in his seven-year career. But he’s at the perfect price point where you shrug at the low floor while recognizing his stellar power potential. I realize power bats don’t mean […]

Marcus Semien (SS, TOR) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 110 CURRENT ADP: ~131 overall ANALYSIS:  If you look at his expected batting average from 2020, Marcus Semien should have theoretically performed worse than he actually did (.223), which suggests he was somewhat lucky. But then you look at his .260 BABIP last year which was both a career-worst and […]

Lamarcus Joyner To Sign With Jets

Former Las Vegas Raiders defensive back Lamarcus Joyner will sign a one-year, $4.5 million deal with the New York Jets, according to sources.

Yimi Garcia (RP, MIA) - 2021 Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers

2020 was an odd season for all of Major League Baseball but the Miami Marlins’ odyssey stands out as one of the most bizarre. Miami played their first series of the season before a full-blown COVID-19 outbreak postponed their next eight games. They ended up putting 17 players on the injured list and resumed play […]

Anthony DeSclafani, Giants Hoping For Bounce-Back 2021

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani could be the latest bounce-back pitcher for the team in recent seasons. DeSclafani pitched 3 2/3 innings in Thursday's game against the Mariners, allowing one run on three hits and two walks with three strikeouts. The 30-year-old has had several successful seasons throughout his career, but he posted […]

Broncos Expected To Make Strong Push For Kyle Fuller

The Denver Broncos are expected to make a strong push for free-agent cornerback Kyle Fuller once his release from the Chicago Bears is official, according to sources. Head coach Vic Fangio is familiar with Fuller when he coached him in Chicago. Although the Broncos already signed Ronald Darby in free agency, signing the 29-year-old Fuller […]

Griffin Canning (SP, LAA) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 275 CURRENT ADP: ~290 overall ANALYSIS: Canning had his struggles last year after getting a late start to the year after dealing with some elbow injuries. His 23.5%-9.7% K-BB ratio is far from encouraging, but I think that was attributable to the elbow discomfort and delayed season. What this Angels righty […]

Keegan Akin (SP, BAL) - 2021 Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers

Keegan Akin made his MLB debut for the Baltimore Orioles during the 2020 season and the former second-round draft pick didn't disgrace himself. Akin ended the season with a 4.56 ERA and 1.44 WHIP from his eight appearances (six starts) as well as striking out 35 batters in 25.2 IP. Akin is expected to start the […]

Martin, a second-round pick in 2016, has started every game that […]

The Seattle Seahawks re-signed interior offensive lineman Ethan Pocic to a one-year, $3 million deal on Thursday, according to a source. The team's starting center will return. The 25-year-old started 14 games last year and found a home at center after playing both guard positions over his first three seasons in the league. Pocic was […]

Tommy La Stella (1B/2B/3B, SF) - Fantasy Baseball Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 290 CURRENT ADP: ~306 overall ANALYSIS: Finally signing with the San Francisco Giants, La Stella should play just about every day and hit atop the Giants Lineup. Tommy La Stella is what I categorize as a roster stabilizer. His production is not flashy, but you can write it in pen. […]

Chiefs Re-Sign Mike Remmers Thursday

The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed offensive tackle Mike Remmers to a one-year deal worth $3.5 million guaranteed on Thursday, according to a source. The total maximum value of the deal can reach $7 million. He wound up playing in 13 regular season games (10 starts) after originally signing as a versatile reserve offensive lineman. Remmers […]

Mike Trout Collects Two Walks And A Hit On Thursday

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout had a solid day at the plate in Thursday's win, drawing two walks and collecting a base hit against the Brewers.

The Cleveland Browns signed former Los Angeles Rams cornerback Troy Hill to a four-year, $24 million deal on Thursday, according to a source.

Texans Add Receivers Donte Moncrief, Alex Erickson

The Houston Texans signed free-agent wide receiver Donte Moncrief and former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Alex Erickson to undisclosed one-year deals on Thursday, according to a source.

Breshad Perriman Signs One-Year Deal With Lions

Former New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the Detroit Lions on Thursday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Perriman will now play for the same team that his father Brett starred for. The 27-year-old was expected to be one of New York's top receivers in 2020, but […]

Jared Walsh (1B, LAA) - 2021 Fantasy Baseball Draft Sleepers

Jared Walsh burst onto the Minor League scene in 2019 after hitting 36 homers in 98 games and received a call up to the Angels. Prior to that, Walsh had 49 homers in 361 Minor League games so his power outburst came as a surprise. Walsh didn't have a great start to his MLB career […]
