Todd Gurley II A Good Bet To Find The End Zone In Week 1

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II will face a familiar foe in his Week 1 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.

The matchup against Seattle isn't the greatest, but the 26-year-old has enjoyed success […]

Former Denver Broncos and New England Patriots All-Pro cornerback Aqib Talib announced his retirement from football on Wednesday.

Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller (ankle) was diagnosed with a dislocated peroneal tendon in his ankle after suffering the injury in practice on Tuesday.

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Austin Meadows has had a rough season, slashing just .202/.288/.358 after posting a slash line of .291/.364/.558 in 2019.

Matt Ryan Possesses Upside Against Seahawks

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan has upside in a plus matchup against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1. Seattle has a good secondary, but the loss of Jadeveon Clowney leaves them with a questionable pass rush.

Chiefs Defense In Play As Week 1 Streamer

When thinking of dominant defenses, the Kansas City Chiefs Defense just doesn't come to mind. However, they actually averaged the 11th-most fantasy points per game last year after really struggling early in the year. Houston put up numbers in the first half of their playoff matchup with the Chiefs last year, but Kansas City gave […]

Pete Alonso Raking In September

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso has certainly had a disappointing season overall, following up a monstrous 53-home run rookie campaign. However, he's started to show signs of last year's dominance so far in September. Alonso has four home runs through seven games this month and has a slugging percentage of .714 through the […]

Chiefs Expecting Good Things From Mecole Hardman

Kansas City Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub said the team is expecting a lot of good things from second-year wide receiver/return man Mecole Hardman this year.

Daz Cameron Making MLB Debut On Wednesday

The Detroit Tigers have called up yet another prospect, outfielder Daz Cameron. The team's No. 7 overall prospect according to MLB Pipeline, Cameron will bat seventh and play right field in his MLB debut on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Daniel Vogelbach Sitting On Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach is heading to the bench for Wednesday's game against left-hander Matthew Boyd and the Detroit Tigers. The left-handed Vogelbach is 0-for-7 against lefties this year, so it's no surprise he's out of the lineup. Vogelbach had started four straight games prior to Wednesday and had gone 5-for-13 with two […]

Ozzie Albies Activated, Will Play On Wednesday

Atlanta Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies (wrist) was activated off of the 10-day injured list on Wednesday afternoon. He will suit up for the team's Wednesday night game against the Miami Marlins.

Ben Gamel Heads To The Bench On Wednesday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ben Gamel is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Matthew Boyd and the Detroit Tigers. Gamel has been the team's primary leadoff hitter lately, but fellow outfielder Avisail Garcia will fill in as the team's leadoff hitter on Wednesday while Tyrone Taylor takes over Gamel's primary right field post. Gamel […]

Juan Soto Reaches Base Three Times In Return

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto was 1-for-2 with an RBI, a run scored, and two intentional walks during Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Walker Buehler allowed five runs (two earned) on four hits across 2 2/3 innings of work during Tuesday's 10-9 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. He struck out two batters without issuing a walk. Buehler was cruising to start the game, before self-destructing in a five-run third inning. He was also looking […]

Chris Herndon (TE, NYJ) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 55% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Herndon has been catching on lately as a sleeper in the fantasy community, partly due to the injuries across the Jets' WR corps. Also, he's a great athlete at tight end and could finally fulfill the promise of a year ago before suspension and […]

Cody Bellinger Steals Two Bases On Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger was 1-for-4 with two walks, two stolen bases, and a run scored during Tuesday's 10-9 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The 25-year-old has failed to live up to the lofty standards of his MVP season in 2019, but he is still a valuable asset in fantasy formats. Bellinger is […]

Michael Pittman Jr. (WR, IND) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 29% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Indianapolis Colts have a new quarterback in Philip Rivers. Since 2009, Rivers has supported a WR2 with a top 40 finish at the position eight times, including the past three seasons. Heck, his WR3 has finished top-50 four times over that sample. So, […]

Gavin Lux Explodes For Five RBI

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Gavin Lux was 3-for-5 with two home runs, three runs scored, five RBI, and a walk during Tuesday's 10-9 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. It was the best performance of Lux's young career, and by far the biggest outing of his 2020 season. The top prospect struggled out of the […]

Bryan Edwards (WR, LV) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deeper Leagues OWNED IN: 18% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I felt good about this pick when I drafted Edwards in a dynasty rookie draft and traded for him in an FFPC Startup draft back in May. I felt really good about it when he was announced as the starting X receiver for […]

Breshad Perriman (WR, NYJ) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Somebody's got to catch passes for the Jets, right? With Denzel Mims sidelined throughout training camp, his rookie year could be a wash if he doesn't recover soon. Recently signed Chris Hogan is listed as a starter opposite Perriman with Lawrence Cager, Josh […]
