Domantas Sabonis Has No Timetable

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (foot) has not touched a basketball in six days and has no timetable for his return. Sabonis is dealing with plantar fasciitis, so really the only thing he can do is rest. He'll likely sit out all the exhibition games, but will hopefully be ready in time for the seeding […]

Jimmie Johnson Has Upside At Kansas On Thursday

Hendrick Motorsports driver Jimmie Johnson has struggled recently at Kansas Speedway, with just two top 10s in the last six races here. But both of those top 10s came in 2019, and Johnson starts Thursday's Super Start Batteries 400 in 20th, giving him solid place differential upside. There is, of course, reason to worry about […]

Marvin Bagley Has Left Orlando

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) has left the Orlando bubble and has been quickly ruled out for the restart. He suffered a foot injury in practice and was diagnosed with a lateral right foot sprain. Sadly, injuries continue to derail Bagley's career, but hopefully he'll be back healthy next season. Nemanja Bjelica, Harry Giles, […]

Kemba Walker Practices On Thursday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. "I felt really good (today), actually. It was really fun to get out there with my teammates," Walker said. He has been bothered by left knee problems since he was in college. The organization plans to limit Walker during the seeding games. […]

Nate Pearson, Ryan Borucki Optioned To Taxi Squad

The Toronto Blue Jays have optioned starting pitchers Nate Pearson and Ryan Borucki to their taxi squad ahead of Thursday’s roster cutoff. Pearson will likely be called up after the 29th, so the Jays gain an extra year of team control, and he’ll presumably join the starting rotation during its second time through. Borucki’s option […]

Kyle Busch Looks To Continue Kansas Resurgence

For much of his career, Kyle Busch was just plain bad at Kansas Speedway. From his first race in 2004 through the first race here in 2014, Busch had just two top 10s at the track and eight finishes outside the top 20. He's improved since then, including getting a pair of top fives in […]

Kurt Busch Looking To Continue Recent Kansas Success

Chip Ganassi Racing's Kurt Busch has seven top-10 finishes in his last 10 NASCAR Cup Series races at Kansas Speedway, but he's still searching for his first win at the track. Busch has gotten as high as second-place in the finishing order twice here, but just hasn't been able to pull off a victory. Busch […]

Clint Bowyer Has Place Differential Upside At Kansas

It's true that Kansas Speedway hasn't always been the best track for Clint Bowyer, whose average finish in his last 10 starts at the track is 17.5, with just three top 10s in those 10 races. But Bowyer did have a pair of top 10s here last year, including a fifth-place run in the first […]

Alex Bowman Has Solid Upside At Kansas

Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman is set to start sixth in Thursday's Super Start Batteries 400 at Kansas Speedway. In five starts at this track in the 88 car, Bowman has a worst finish of 18th with three top 10s, including a second-place finish in this race a year ago. Bowman's spot on the starting […]

Kevin Harvick Starts From Pole At Kansas

Stewart Haas Racing's Kevin Harvick will start from the pole on Thursday when the NASCAR Cup Series visits Kansas Speedway for the Super Start Batteries 400. Harvick's placement on the grid does take away some of his DFS upside, as he won't be able to earn place differential points, but his history at this track […]

Dynasty Market Watch: NFC South

The NFC South has been full of fantasy talent for several years now. Some of the better players in the game reside in this division and are popular selections at the top of drafts.

Young Blue Jays Lineup Set To Make Impact in 2020

In 2019, the Yankees and Marlins were tied for the youngest starting lineup in the Majors at 26.5 years of age. Heading into 2020, the average age of the Blue Jays' starting lineup in 25.5, with 30-year-old Travis Shaw projected to be their oldest starter. There is such a great deal of variance on how […]

Updated Points League Rankings Risers and Fallers (July)

Is it feasible to do a weekly H2H league in 2020? Sure. Is it a great idea? Not really. With just under 10 weeks of actual baseball, the whole "sprint" metaphor will become real in a hurry. Total points leagues aren't as popular but make a lot more sense over the course of a 60-game season. […]

Cam Akers Stood Out During Virtual Meetings

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers impressed his coaching staff during virtual meetings conducted during the offseason and was touted for his "engagement, assertiveness, and asking all the right questions." The rookie will have some big shoes to fill in 2020 after Todd Gurley II landed in Atlanta with the Falcons. Though he could […]

Miles Sanders Getting In Extra Work

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders and quarterback Carson Wentz conducted a workout together recently. With training camp hopefully right around the corner, the 23-year-old made it a point during the offseason to put in extra work in hopes of capturing an MVP, a goal he has openly expressed interest in over the last few […]

Leody Taveras Makes Opening Day Roster

Texas Rangers outfielder Leody Taveras has made the Opening Day Roster for the 2020 season. He is ranked by Baseball America as the third-best prospect in the organization. Taveras excels in the defensive aspects of the game, but his bat needs to improve to get in the starting lineup. Taveras batted .279/.344/.376 with five home […]

Dalvin Cook Still Searching For New Contract

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook is still without a new deal and remains firm in his stance that he will not report until he gets paid. With the Tennessee Titans and Derrick Henry recently agreeing to terms on a four-year, $50 million contract, the 24-year-old will likely continue to look for a deal around […]

Alvin Kamara Seemingly Closer To Bigger Payday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara could be closer to earning a bigger paycheck after the Tennessee Titans recently reached a four-year, $50 million deal with Derrick Henry. Despite dealing with various injuries and being without Drew Brees for part of the 2019 season, the 24-year-old still finished with a respectable 797 yards and […]

Ezekiel Elliott Displeased With Lack Of Respect

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott urged his critics to "check the stats," a comment made toward members of the media who he feels often criticize his level of performance. The 24-year-old does have a leg to stand on, nonetheless, as he has been one of the most impactful rushers throughout the entire league during […]

Austin Nola To See An Increased Workload

Seattle Mariners catcher Austin Nola looks to be the primary catching option for Seattle following Tom Murphy's trip to the injured list to start 2020. Nola hit .269 with 10 home runs in 79 games for Seattle in 2019 and though he should see an increased role behind the plate, he doesn't offer much upside […]
