Jadeveon Clowney Plans To Pick A Team Before Season Starts
Free-agent defensive end Jadeveon Clowney said that he intends to sign with a team "before the season starts, if everything still goes on time with the season." Clowney also said that "I have not narrowed down a final team. I'm still open." Clowney encountered a cold market this offseason, and it wasn't helped by the […]

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher/designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (elbow) is expected to be on the mound at the outset of training camp later this week, according to general manager Billy Eppler.

KBO Betting Picks (7/1/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines
Samsung got a great start out of Chae-heung Choi to quiet the already weak SK lineup. Meanwhile, Kia got hit with a rain storm that postponed the game, so Wednesday's matchup is almost exactly the same as Tuesday and my writeup on that game below is almost exact because I still like that game a […]

Lakers Finalizing Deal With J.R. Smith
Free-agent guard J.R. Smith is reportedly finalizing a deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. This was the ideal landing spot for the veteran guard after Avery Bradley decided to opt out of the upcoming restart. Smith should have some fantasy value, but he'll basically be a low-cost DFS option. Alex Caruso is expected to be […]

Jordan Bell Agrees To Two-Year Deal With Cavs
Free-agent center Jordan Bell has agreed to a two-year deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's a low-risk move for the rebuilding Cavs and a nice landing spot for the 25-year-old big man. Bell has struggled to find a reliable role through his first three seasons in the league. He has bounced around a bit, but […]

Dean Wade Gets Multi-Year Deal With Cavs
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade will have his two-way contract converted into a multi-year deal. He averaged 14.2 points, 7.5 rebounds, and 2.4 assists during his time in the G-League this season. However, reliable forward minutes in Cleveland might be hard to come by next season. Kevin Love remains on the roster and the organization […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Tests Positive For COVID-19
Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie has reportedly tested positive for COVID-19. There is a good chance that Dinwiddie decides to sit out the upcoming NBA restart happening in late July. The Nets will already be without Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Kevin Durant (Achilles) for the restart. However, center DeAndre Jordan has opted out as well […]

DeAndre Jordan Has Ruled Out Playing During Restart
Brooklyn Nets center DeAndre Jordan has decided to opt out of the upcoming NBA restart after he tested positive for COVID-19. The Nets are already going to be without Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Kevin Durant (Achilles) during the restart. Guard Spencer Dinwiddie who tested positive as well could join Jordan on the list of players […]

Victor Oladipo's Status For Restart Remains Uncertain
Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (quadriceps) is in great shape right now, according to general manager Kevin Pritchard. "We have timed workouts and physical therapy and conditioning, and if you all know Victor, he's here first and really doesn't want to leave all day," Pritchard said. Despite making progress, Oladipo is still working his way […]

Buccaneers Not Interested In Signing Antonio Brown
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are not expected to sign free-agent wide receiver Antonio Brown, per ESPN's Dianna Russini. The talented, but troubled receiver has been out of the league since appearing in Week 2 of the 2019 NFL season with the New England Patriots. The 31-year-old has found himself in various legal troubles recently, which […]

Magic Haven't Ruled Out Jonathan Isaac, Al-Farouq Aminu
Orlando Magic forwards Jonathan Isaac (knee) and Al-Farouq Aminu (knee) have not been ruled out for the upcoming NBA restart, according to head coach Steve Clifford. "They're both in here working every day," Clifford said. Both players have been given months off to rest, but it seems highly unlikely that they return to action next […]

Justin Holiday Decides To Opt In For Restart
Indiana Pacers forward Justin Holiday has decided that he is going to play during the NBA restart in July. He was reportedly split 50/50 on playing, but has chosen to return for the rest of the regular season. He'll continue to see quality minutes off the bench for the Pacers going forward. His usage could […]

Tyler Rogers, Tony Watson Are Closing Candidates
San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said Tuesday that he has two pitchers in mind to close for the 2020 season, Tyler Rogers and Tony Watson. Rogers, a 29-year-old sidearmer, was solid in very limited work last season, going 2-0 with a 1.02 ERA, 0.85 WHIP, 22.9% strikeout rate and an 0-for-2 conversion rate for […]

Orioles Sign First-Rounder Heston Kjerstad
The Baltimore Orioles signed first-rounder Heston Kjerstad (second overall) to a contract worth $5.2 million on Tuesday. The Arkansas outfielder signed for roughly two-thirds of the slot value of the second overall pick ($7.8 million). Kjerstad was considered one of the top left-handed college bats in this season's draft and was widely thought to be […]

Spencer Torkelson Signs Contract, Joins Roster
Detroit Tigers third baseman Spencer Torkelson has officially signed his contract with the Detroit Tigers. It is reportedly worth $8,416,300, which is a new MLB draft bonus record.

Giancarlo Stanton Likely To Be DH-Ready For Opening Day
New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (calf) is expected to be healthy enough to DH on Opening Day. Stanton suffered a calf strain early in spring training, and although fantasy owners should expect Stanton to be healthy enough to hit by Opening Day, his ability to take the field may take longer. If Stanton becomes […]

Aaron Judge Expected To Be Ready For Opening Day
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (rib) is expected to be healthy in time for Opening Day, according to general manager Brian Cashman. Judge could still suffer setbacks between now and late July, but after months of significant uncertainty, fantasy owners should now expect Judge to be ready for the start of the season. Outfielder […]

Alex Noren Brings Cold Irons To Detroit
Alex Noren was once a rising European Tour star, but he has found the game much harder in the U.S. over the last couple of years. However, Noren has been headed in the right direction in the 2019-20 PGA Tour season, as he has made eight of nine cuts since November. The Swede is set […]

Shoulder and Achilles injuries limited Betances to only one game last season for the Yankees. […]

Maverick McNealy Set To Make Rocket Mortgage Debut
It has been a strong season for Maverick McNealy and he will look to make his mark on Detroit Golf Club in his Rocket Mortgage Classic debut this week. A former college star, McNealy stumbled a bit out of the gate in his pro career, but has found his footing this season by making the […]

Sungjae Im Stays On The Grind At Rocket Mortgage
Sungjae Im was one of the hottest players in golf when the PGA Tour halted play due to COVID-19, but the young star has sputtered a bit since play resumed, logging a missed cut at the RBC Heritage and an underwhelming T58 at last week's Travelers Championship. Im's struggles can be tracked down to losing […]

Viktor Hovland Brings Sharp Form To Detroit
Viktor Hovland heads to this week's Rocket Mortgage Classic in sharp form. The young star put on a ball-striking clinic last week at the Travelers Championship, gaining a massive 7.8 strokes on approach shots. However, his putter refused to cooperate and he was forced to settle with a T11 at TPC River Highlands. Hovland will […]
