Orelvis Martinez Bouncing Between Second And Third Base

Toronto Blue Jays infield prospect Orelvis Martinez is expected to split time between second and third base during spring training. Blue Jays manager John Schneider noted that the infielder still has a lot to prove on the defensive side of his game. Last season, Martinez got the call to the majors in June but was […]

Grayson Rodriguez Working On New Sweeper

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Grayson Rodriguez was working on his new pitch, a sweeper, during Thursday's practice. This sweeper is different from the slider that he relied on 15.8 percent of the time last season (third-most used pitch). Last season, Rodriguez logged 116 2/3 innings and saw his season cut short due to a lat […]

Curtis Mead Adds Weight In The Offseason

Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Curtis Mead added weight during the offseason. Mead did this to hit the ball harder and retain his strength through the long season. Mead has appeared in 62 MLB contests over the past two seasons but has yet to enjoy any sustained success. During the 2023 season, Mead held a […]

Fantasy Football NFL Wide Receiver Age Cliff: When Should You Fade Aging WR Veterans?

The age cliff comes for all players, but importantly, what age it arrives is very dependent on the position played.

Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Drew Rasmussen threw his first live batting practice session of the spring on Wednesday and is working on a five-day starter's schedule.

Shohei Ohtani Working Out Of The Windup

Los Angeles Dodgers two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani (elbow, shoulder) has thrown mostly out of the full windup in his first two bullpen sessions this spring after pitching almost exclusively out of the stretch in his time with the Los Angeles Angels. "As part of being a baseball player, I do want to explore different options […]

Josh Jung Ready To Go For Spring Training

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (wrist) is excited to be fully healthy for spring training after undergoing two surgeries on his wrist last year, according to the Dallas Morning News' Shawn McFarland.

Jared Shuster Transitioning To Starting Role

Chicago White Sox left-hander Jared Shuster, the 25th overall pick by the Atlanta Braves in 2020 out of Wake Forest University, is transitioning from a setup role last year into a starting role in 2025.

Christian Moore Has "Really Good Chance" To Make Opening Day Roster

MLB.com's Jonathan Mayo thinks that Los Angeles Angels infield prospect Christian Moore has "a really, really good chance to make this team." The Angels have notoriously been very aggressive with promoting their young prospects despite having minimal professional experience. Moore was taken eighth overall in 2024 out of the University of Tennessee and didn't disappoint, […]

Should I Draft Travis Hunter in Fantasy Football Rookie Drafts?

Colorado's Travis Hunter is one of the more exciting prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft. What Hunter was able to do on both sides of the ball in his final college season with the Buffaloes was truly impressive. He played both cornerback and wide receiver at a high level this past year.  The only problem […]

Tony Gonsolin To Start Friday's Cactus League Game

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin (elbow) will start the team's second Cactus League game on Friday against the Chicago Cubs, with Nick Frasso starting on Saturday versus the Kansas City Royals. Gonsolin had Tommy John surgery in September of 2023, which caused him to miss the entire 2024 season with the Dodgers. The 30-year-old […]

Jared Jones Adding Two-Seam Fastball

After breaking into the big leagues last year, Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Jared Jones is adding a two-seam fastball heading into his sophomore season, according to manager Derek Shelton. Jones' four-seamer averages 17.1 inches of vertical break, but his two-seamer would move in the opposite direction. The 23-year-old has been experimenting with the new pitch in […]

DJ Herz Tightens Up His Mechanics

The Washington Post's Spencer Nusbaum writes that Washington Nationals left-hander DJ Herz worked hard to tighten up his mechanics and add strength in the offseason.

Seth Halvorsen Could See Save Chances For Rockies

The Denver Post's Patrick Saunders writes that Colorado Rockies right-hander Seth Halvorsen is in the mix for saves in 2025. Tyler Kinley is believed to be the favorite for saves in Colorado to open the season because of the experience factor alone, but Halvorsen should be in the mix as well after making his major-league […]

LeBron James Good To Go Versus Portland

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is available for Thursday's meeting with the Trail Blazers. King James didn't suit up for the All-Star tournament.

Mike Conley Back On The Injury Report Versus Houston

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley (finger) is questionable for Friday's contest against Houston. The veteran has been sidelined by a finger injury of late, keeping him off the floor for Minnesota's final four games heading into the All-Star break. If he remains on the shelf versus the Rockets, Nickeil Alexander-Walker will likely continue to operate […]

Rudy Gobert Might Miss Friday's Contest

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is questionable heading into Friday's showdown in Houston. Gobert has been healthy enough to suit up nearly all year. Yet, he wasn't available for the February 13 matchup with OKC, his first absence of the 2024-25 campaign. If Gobert remains on the shelf against the Rockets, Naz Reid, who […]

Robert Williams III Available On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers center Robert Williams III (knee) is active ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Williams missed the final two games before the All-Star break as he continues to manage a lingering knee issue. He's back in action on Thursday after missing seven of the last nine games. Williams is likely […]

Anthony Edwards Questionable For Friday Night

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (hip) is questionable for Friday's game in Houston. Edwards rarely misses time. However, he wasn't available for the matchup versus the Trail Blazers on February 8. He also missed Sunday's All-Star tournament. The Timberwolves are also listing Rudy Gobert (back) and Mike Conley (finger) on the injury report. As a […]

Scoot Henderson Back In Action On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson (ankle) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Henderson was able to fully practice on Wednesday and is ready to play again after sitting out the final game before the All-Star break.

Jerami Grant To Play On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (knee) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Grant missed the last two games heading into the All-Star break due to a knee issue. It appears he is finally over the issue and will be back in the lineup on Thursday. The assumption is that […]
