K.J. Hamler Remains Questionable For Monday Night

Denver Broncos wide receiver K.J. Hamler remains questionable for Monday night's matchup against the Titans. The rookie has been dealing with a hamstring injury and the team could take a cautious approach by holding him out for Monday. The Penn State product figures to be the speedster on this offense when he can actually get […]

Darrynton Evans Ruled Out For Monday Night

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Darrynton Evans has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Broncos.

Anthony Rizzo Receives Night Off Saturday

Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo is not among the club’s starting nine Saturday against Milwaukee and left-hander Brent Suter. Rizzo has slumped mightily over his last eight games, having gone just 3-for-30 with a .376 OPS in that span. Kris Bryant will instead man first base Saturday, as Rizzo avoids a lefty starter after […]

Cameron Maybin Scratched From Saturday’s Lineup Versus Brewers

Chicago Cubs outfielder Cameron Maybin (stomach) has been scratched from Saturday’s matchup with a stomach ailment. Maybin has been getting a lot of run with his new club, but doesn’t offer much value to managers with just one stolen base on the year. Ildemaro Vargas will replace Maybin in the lineup and bat eighth. Vargas […]

Deebo Samuel Placed On Injured Reserve

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (foot) was placed on the injured reserve on Saturday. Samuel has a Jones fracture in his foot, which would have been difficult for him to play through.

Cameron Maybin Scratched From Saturday’s Lineup

Chicago Cubs outfielder Cameron Maybin has been removed from the club’s starting nine Saturday against Milwaukee and left-hander Brent Suter due to an illness.

Cubs Bench Slumping Anthony Rizzo On Saturday

Chicago Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo will rest on Saturday against the Brewers. It’s just a routine day off for Rizzo and the move will shift third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant over time first base. Rizzo has just three hits over his last 28 at-bats and a day of rest may be what he needs to […]

Milwaukee Scratches Brett Anderson Saturday, Tabs Brent Suter

Milwaukee Brewers left-handed pitcher Brett Anderson was scratched from his start Saturday against the Cubs due to right hip tightness. The team will instead send southpaw Brent Suter to the mound for his second start of the season. The deepest that Suter has gone into a game this year came during his first start (Aug. […]

Kevin Kiermaier Set To Miss Remainder Of Weekend Series

Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Kevin Kiermaier is likely unavailable for the next two games against Boston due to body soreness. Kiermaier noted that his left knee was sore stemming from a diving catch that he made Friday, and manager Kevin Cash said that Kiermaier would likely only be used this weekend if needed. Having delivered […]

Dustin May Return Unknown, Day-To-Day With Foot Contusion

Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed pitcher Dustin May left his start Thursday against Arizona with what has been deemed a left foot contusion, with his official designation to return being day-to-day.

Golden Tate Questionable Against Steelers

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game against the Steelers. Tate was limited all week, so there's a chance he suits up, though it is definitely not something fantasy managers want to count on. The matchup is tough enough and would be made even more difficult […]

Sergio Romo Earns One-Game Suspension

Minnesota Twins right-handed pitcher Sergio Romo has had a one-game suspension levied against him stemming from an incident with Cleveland shortstop Francisco Lindor from Friday’s contest. The league has handed down the suspension due to its tightening of not wanting bench-clearing incidents, which it believes that Romo caused. In 18 appearances this season, Romo has […]

Ryan McBroom Gets Optioned To Club’s Alternate Site

Kansas City Royals first baseman/designated hitter Ryan McBroom was optioned to the club’s alternate training site prior to Saturday’s contest against the Pirates. The team called up No. 28 prospect per MLB Pipeline, Kelvin Gutierrez, to take McBroom’s spot on the roster, with the youngster set to backup Maikel Franco at the hot corner. McBroom […]

Miles Sanders Ruled Out For Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Washington Redskins. Head coach Doug Pederson had referred to Sanders as day-to-day, though the team is thinking more about his long-term health by sitting him out for Week 1. The Eagles will go with some combination of Boston Scott, […]

Matt Chapman Set To Miss Remainder Of Season

Oakland Athletics third baseman Matt Chapman will undergo hip surgery, ending his 2020 season after being placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday. Chapman had been seeking a second opinion on the injury, but it evidently came back with the recommendation that he undergo surgery to correct the issue. In his absence, manager Bob Melvin […]

Courtland Sutton Questionable For Monday Night

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton (shoulder) is questionable to play on Monday Night Football against the Titans. Sutton wasn't able to practice on Saturday and was originally listed as doubtful, though head coach Vic Fangio said "he has made great strides" and "is questionable in the truest sense." That's simply not something Sutton's fantasy […]

Cooper Kupp And Rams Agree On Three-Year Extension

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp reached an agreement with the team on a three-year, $48 million extension on Saturday. Kupp will now be paid like a top-12 wideout after becoming the only receiver to record at least 90 catches, 1,100 receiving yards and 10 receiving touchdowns in 2019. The 27-year-old is a good […]

It's a Cup Series Saturday night at Richmond, as the second race of the first round of the NASCAR Playoffs gets set to begin.

Alvin Kamara Signs Lucrative Contract With Saints

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has agreed to a five-year, $75 million extension with the team Saturday. The deal guarantees Kamara $34.3 million in money and makes him the second-highest paid running back in the league in terms of yearly salary. There was some doubt late in training camp as to whether the […]

Dalvin Cook, Vikings Agree To Five-Year Deal

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook agreed to terms on a five-year, $63 million deal on Saturday. The deal includes $28 million in guaranteed money for Cook, who made his first Pro Bowl last year after totaling a career-high 1654 yards from scrimmage and 13 touchdowns. It's interesting that the team was willing to commit […]

Mike Evans Upgraded From Doubtful To Questionable

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Saints. Evans is seemingly trending in the right direction, logging a limited practice Friday after two consecutive DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday. There's a decent chance he plays Sunday, though he won't be […]

The Atlanta Braves are bringing back left-handed pitcher Sean Newcomb from the club’s alternate training site, designating southpaw Robbie Erlin to make room on the active roster.

Zack Greinke Faces Former Club Sunday On Heels Of Loss

Houston Astros right-handed pitcher Zack Greinke has remained an elite fantasy commodity during his age-36 season despite watching his fastball velocity dip to an average of 88 MPH. With a 3.27 ERA, 2.54 FIP, and 1.01 WHIP through his first nine starts, Greinke presents a solid floor in the DFS market Sunday despite the fact […]

2020 wRC+ Splits: Risers and Fallers

Baseball in 2020 is unlike any season that I can remember. The designated hitter is now present in the National League. You will not find any more LOOGYs with the institution of the three-batter minimum rule. Doubleheaders are now a combined 14 innings of baseball. Extra innings now start with a runner on second base. […]

Champ or Chump: Deivi Garcia

Fantasy baseball frequently turns into an arms race, so you should always be scouring the waiver wire for pitching reinforcements to help you reach your innings cap. Young Deivi Garcia has turned heads in his MLB debut for the Yankees, going 1-1 with a 3.06 ERA and 4.20 xFIP in his first 17 2/3 IP […]
