Breshad Perriman, Jamison Crowder, Denzel Mims Practice In Full

New York Jets wide receivers Breshad Perriman (knee), Jamison Crowder (hamstring) and rookie Denzel Mims (hamstring) all practiced in full on Wednesday. All three players should be able to suit up in the Week 1 season opener on the road against the Bills. Perriman will be the team's de facto No. 1 receiver with Robby […]

Eddie Rosario Starting To Produce

Minnesota Twins outfielder Eddie Rosario has enjoyed a productive start to September after enduring a dismal start to 2020. Rosario is slashing .303/.324/.545 with two homers and seven RBI through 33 at-bats in the month. Most importantly, perhaps, is that Rosario has only struck out once in the eight games. On the surface, his season […]

Miles Sanders, Jalen Reagor Limited Wednesday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) and rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor (shoulder) were both limited in practice on Wednesday. Sanders is considered day-to-day for Week 1 against the Washington Football Team, but it's a positive that he returned to practice at all. There's a chance that Philly could manage Sanders' workload early in […]

Josh Donaldson Enjoys Productive Doubleheader

Minnesota Twins third baseman Josh Donaldson was a combined 3-for-6 with a three-run homer and two walks during Tuesday's doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals. Donaldson is still trying to shake the rust off after missing all of August with a calf strain. The 34-year-old is slashing .244/.396/.512 with three homers and eight RBI in […]

Julian Edelman On Week 1 Injury Report

New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday ahead of Week 1 against the Dolphins. Edelman somehow usually finds his way onto the injury report but usually plays, so we'd expect him to be active for the season opener this Sunday. Miami upgraded their secondary in […]

Kike Hernandez Batting Ninth On Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers utilityman Kike Hernandez is starting in left field against Taylor Clarke and the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday night. Hernandez has had sporadic playing time for most of the 2020 campaign, and it is easy to see why. After exploding for four hits and five RBI in his first game of the season, […]

Amari Cooper On Track To Play In Week 1

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper (hamstring) was a full practice participant on Wednesday after being limited recently with a hamstring issue. Fantasy managers never want a player to enter the season injured, but it looks like Cooper will suit up on Sunday for Week 1. The team's No. 1 wideout is more of a […]

Ed Herman Looking To Keep Momentum Going

Ed Herman (24-14) is no stranger to the Octagon, making his 24th appearance under the UFC banner. Since moving up to light heavyweight, Herman is currently enjoying the revival of his career and is on the verge of his first three-fight winning streak in almost eight years. Landing just over 600 significant strikes in his […]

Brandin Cooks Questionable For Thursday Night

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (quadriceps) is officially questionable for the Week 1 Thursday night game against the Chiefs. Cooks returned to a limited practice for the walkthrough on Wednesday. It's nothing new for Cooks, as he's had a history with injuries, particularly concussions. A speedy wideout with a lower-body injury is a big […]

Rowdy Tellez Expected To Be Out Remainder Of Season

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Rowdy Tellez (knee) was placed on the 10-day injured list earlier on Wednesday, but now it is expected that he will be out for the remainder of the 2020 season. A tendon issue was discovered in his knee following an MRI. It is an unfortunate situation for the 25-year-old, as […]

Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk Miss Practice

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Deebo Samuel (foot) and Brandon Aiyuk (hamstring) and cornerback Jason Verrett (hamstring) all missed practice on Wednesday. Samuel was activated from the Non-Football Injury list over the weekend, but he's no lock to play in Week 1 against Arizona. The same rings true for the rookie Aiyuk. With both receivers […]

Mitch Keller Throws Live Batting Practice Wednesday

Pittsburgh Pirates starter Mitch Keller (oblique) threw 43 pitches during a live batting practice session on Wednesday. He also threw another session without setbacks last Friday. Keller has not pitched since Aug. 1 due to an oblique strain, but it seems as though he is closing in on a return. The former top prospect recorded […]

Fred Warner Activated From COVID-19 List

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner was activated from the COVID-19 list on Wednesday. It looks as though the Niners defense will have Warner on hand for their Week 1 matchup on Sunday against the Cardinals. San Fran could look to ease the 23-year-old into action against Arizona's up-tempo offense, but those in IDP leagues […]

Ljay Newsome Expected To Make Next Start

Seattle Mariners pitcher Ljay Newsome is on course to make his next projected start against the San Francisco Giants next week. Newsome left Tuesday's game after taking a hard liner off of his pitching hand in the second inning. Thankfully, x-rays on his hand came back negative, so he will be good to go after […]

Vic Beasley Returns To Practice

Tennessee Titans linebacker Vic Beasley returned to practice on Wednesday after he was activated to the 53-man roster on Saturday from the Non-Football Injury list. Beasley missed 10 unexcused days of training camp and also failed his initial physical with the team. The Titans Defense was already on the radar as a potential fantasy streamer, […]

Josh James Activated Off Of Injured List

Houston Astros reliever Josh James was activated off of the 10-day injured list on Wednesday evening after missing a couple of weeks with hip discomfort. It was a quick recovery for the 27-year-old, as manager Dusty Baker was not expecting him back until the team's next homestand. James may find his way into the closer's […]

Michael Baumann Shut Down With Elbow Injury

Baltimore Orioles pitching prospect Michael Baumann has been shut down with a flexor strain in his elbow, according to Dan Connolly of The Athletic. The team is not considering surgery at this time, as they do not believe the injury is a long-term concern. Baumann posted a 6-2 record at Double-A in 2019 to go […]

NBA DFS Cheat Sheet & Expert Lineups for September 10th

With only two games on this Thursday slate, I'm going to discuss each game and provide a player pool for the slate at the bottom.  The majority of the slates moving forward will be smaller so remember that almost anyone getting minutes is in play instead of being able to easily cross off or remove […]

Patrick Corbin Struggling In 2020

Washington Nationals starter Patrick Corbin allowed five runs on nine hits across 5 1/3 innings in his most recent start against the Atlanta Braves on August 6. He also walked four batters in the loss. The 31-year-old now sits with a 2-4 record on the year to go along with a 4.34 ERA and 1.47 […]

Running Back Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 1

How high was your level of concern that we might not experience an NFL regular season? Anyone who wondered whether Week 1 matchups would transpire as expected is just days away from witnessing all 32 teams in their season openers. While you have been anticipating the onset of regular-season games, you have also been focusing […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 1

Y'all, it's here. NFL football. On Thursday night, the Texans and the Chiefs will kick things off, which is either going to be a great or terrible start to the year for me, a Texans fan whose wife is a huge Chiefs fan and got a Chiefs Super Bowl tattoo in February. But enough about […]

Tight End Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 1

Did you finish your fantasy football draft and realize that you forgot to take a viable tight end? Are the only tight ends on your fantasy roster Jordan Akins and Trey Burton? If you fall into one of these categories, you came to the right place. All of the undrafted tight ends in your fantasy […]

Jalen Richard Enters Season As No. 2 Back

Las Vegas Raiders running back Jalen Richard will open the 2020 regular season as the primary backup to Josh Jacobs, and he's also in line to return punts on special teams. Richard's third-down pass-catching role came into clearer focus when the team traded rookie Lynn Bowden Jr. to the Dolphins. Jacobs is expected to have […]

Blake Snell Looks To Continue Success Versus Red Sox

Tampa Bay Rays starter Blake Snell has had an adequate 2020 season to date, but far from the Cy Young standards he set for himself back in 2018. In his most recent start, he surrendered a season-high four runs in five innings against the Miami Marlins. Thankfully, a date with the Boston Red Sox is […]

Derek Carr Needs To Lead Offense To More Scores

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr was in charge of an offense that scored 26 points per game back in 2016 when the team went 12-4, but other than that season, he has had trouble getting the ball into the end zone. Carr had a 70.4 percent completion rate and career-highs in yardage (4,054) and […]

Danny Santana Out 7-8 Months

Texas Rangers outfielder Danny Santana (elbow) will be out for the next seven to eight months following a major elbow surgery on Wednesday afternoon. It is similar to the Tommy John procedure, but with an artificial brace inserted as opposed to a human tendon. Either way, Santana will be on the shelf for a long time […]
