Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry continues to ignore Father Time and remains a top option at his position. Over the last four seasons, Henry has finished as a top-8 RB or higher every season. Last season, Henry rushed for 1,595 yards with 16 touchdowns across 17 games with the Ravens. His stats took a slight decrease, but not enough to alarm fantasy managers. The Ravens haven't done basically anything to improve this running back group. With that being said, Henry remains the top dog without any real competition on the roster. The assumption is that Henry is going to slightly regress due to age, but should remain the workhorse back. As long as he remains healthy, Henry should be a high-level option for the upcoming 2026 season.--Andy Webb

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey was electric during his rookie season in 2024. He finished with 82 receptions for over 1,100 receiving yards during his first year in the league. Fantasy managers thought they caught lightning in a bottle with McConkey, but he struggled to find the same kind of success last season. He fell into a sophomore slump, where he produced 66 receptions for 789 yards across 16 games. It was a significant drop in production for McConkey, but his value could be on the rise again. The Chargers have a new play-caller in Mike McDaniel, who should help improve this offense as a whole. The bigger news is that Keenan Allen remains unsigned right now. Assuming he doesn't return to the Chargers, McConkey should spend more time in the slot, where he's usually more reliable. A revamped offensive scheme and shift to the full-time slot role should make McConkey a solid buy-low candidate.--Andy Webb

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy was a surprisingly solid contributor this past season. It's never easy to make a consistent impact when CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens are ahead of you on the depth chart. Due to some health problems, Flournoy was pushed into a larger role at times this past season. He made the most of it with 40 receptions, 475 receiving yards, and four touchdowns across 16 games. That's a decent year for a sixth-round pick who is stuck behind two stud wideouts on the depth chart. The fact that Flournoy is the WR3 is going to limit his overall ceiling heading into the 2026 season. He's not a great redraft option, but he is an intriguing dynasty stash right now. Pickens is currently playing under the franchise tag and remains without a long-term deal. He could be gone after the season or sooner, which in theory would open up more playing time and a bigger role for Flournoy in this offense.--Andy Webb

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jalen Nailor could be poised for a breakout season with his new organization. After spending the last four seasons in Minnesota, Nailor signed a three-year deal with the Raiders this offseason. Nailor has been stuck as the third option behind Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison with the Vikings. Now, Nailor is expected to be a top wide receiver alongside Tre Tucker in Las Vegas. Last season, Nailor finished with 29 receptions, 444 receiving yards, and four touchdowns in 17 games with the Vikings. His numbers should see a significant rise as he moves to the top of the depth chart with the Raiders. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Nailor to be a superstar just because he has become a top option on the depth chart. He might be able to provide WR3 value, but that depends on his chemistry with quarterbacks Fernando Mendoza and Kirk Cousins. He's an interesting buy-low candidate in dynasty formats with the move to Las Vegas.--Andy Webb

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Frederik Andersen struggled in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Montreal Canadiens, but the team will keep faith in him. "This game wasn't on him at all," Hurricanes head coach Brind'Amour said. "Freddie is pretty calm. One of his strengths is that he's able to just move on." Before Thursday's Game 1, Andersen was 8-0 this postseason, with a 1.12 goals-against average, a .950 save percentage, and two shutouts. He was beaten four times in the first period and finished with a .762 save percentage in a 6-2 loss. The Canadiens made Andersen look human again, but the veteran netminder rarely loses back-to-back games -- it's happened just twice in 2026.--Taavi Pailk

Buffalo Sabres goaltender Devon Levi has many admirers among rival teams, including the Ottawa Senators, ESPN's Kevin Weekes reports. Goaltending was a problem for Ottawa this season, as the team ranked 31st in the league with a .882 save percentage. Former Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark missed 35 games for mental health reasons and lacked a serviceable backup. The highly rated Levi could address that issue. He might also be looking for a change of scenery after seeing action in only nine NHL games this season. Levi made his debut in the league a couple of campaigns ago and carries a 17-17-2 career record. He has registered a 3.29 goals-against average and a .894 save percentage. Levi has one season remaining on a two-year, $1.63 million contract.--Taavi Pailk

Quarterback Jacoby Brissett and the Arizona Cardinals are still not close to reaching an agreement on a reworked deal for the 2026 season after months of negotiating, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. According to a source, the two sides are "significantly" far apart. As a result, Brissett hasn't attended any of the team's voluntary OTAs or the voluntary offseason program. His current deal pays him $4.88 million with the potential to earn $5.39 million, with just $1.5 million guaranteed. Gardner Minshew, whom the team signed in free agency in March, will be guaranteed $5.14 million in 2026. The 33-year-old had a career year in 2025 for the Cardinals after taking over for the injured Kyler Murray in Week 6, and he finished with 3,366 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, and eight interceptions in 14 games (10 starts). He was second in the NFL in passing yards from Week 6 on and fourth in completion percentage above expected. Earlier this offseason, it was reported that the Cardinals informed Brissett that he'd be the starter going into 2026, but he still wants a reworked deal to reflect his performance last year. Fantasy managers are expecting regression from Brissett in a full season as a starter in a new offense that is expected to be much more balanced under new head coach Mike LaFleur.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Avalanche goaltender Scott Wedgewood will remain in the crease for Friday night's action against the Vegas Golden Knights, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports. Colorado has used both goalies in recent games, and there were questions about Wedgewood after he posted a .899 save percentage in a 4-2 Game 1 loss to Vegas. However, Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar has decided to stick with Wedgewood for now. The 33-year-old has made nine postseason outings, going 7-2. He has a 2.32 goals-against average and a .911 save percentage. Throughout the season, Wedgewood has responded well to setbacks, losing consecutive starts only four times. Another strong bounce-back performance from him on Friday would be critical for Colorado.--Taavi Pailk

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Shane Bieber (elbow) is scheduled to start a minor-league rehab assignment on Monday and throw two innings for the Florida Complex League Blue Jays, according to Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet. Bieber will build up his volume from there and will shoot for three innings his next time out. The 30-year-old veteran has been throwing for a while now as he works his way back from an elbow injury, and he has finally been cleared to resume pitching in games. It's good news for Bieber, but fantasy managers who have been stashing him all year in deeper leagues are going to need to remain patient, and in a best-case scenario, he probably won't be an option for Toronto's starting rotation in mid-June. The former Cy Young winner and two-time All-Star got a late start in 2025 after recovering from Tommy John surgery and then went 4-2 with a 3.57 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 37:7 K:BB in seven regular-season starts before allowing nine runs (eight earned) with six walks and 18 K's in 18 2/3 innings in the postseason. Bieber is an injury risk at this point in his career, but he could still be useful as a matchup-based fantasy streamer. He's currently rostered in 44% of Yahoo leagues.--Keith Hernandez

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Ben Hutton will sit out Game 2 against the Colorado Avalanche on Friday as a healthy scratch, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports. Hutton has been in the lineup since the start of the second round, making seven consecutive appearances. However, Golden Knights head coach John Tortorella has decided to give Kaedan Korczak another look. Korczak has made nine postseason appearances, recording one assist, three SOG, six blocks, and 19 hits. He will bring more physicality to the Vegas defense but is unlikely to make a fantasy impact.--Taavi Pailk

Vegas Golden Knights right wing Mark Stone (lower body) will remain sidelined on Friday against the Colorado Avalanche, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports. Stone skated on Friday morning, but his absence will stretch to five games. As a result, Brandon Saad is poised to remain in the lineup and will have a chance to record a point in a second consecutive game after contributing an assist in Wednesday's 4-2 win in Game 1 against Colorado. Meanwhile, Brett Howden will continue in a second-line role, aiming to set a new franchise record with a seven-game postseason road point streak.--Taavi Pailk

San Diego Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill (ribs) is dealing with some sore ribs, but he is expected to be ready to play in the next few days, according to Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune. Merrill most likely will not be in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the visiting Athletics at Petco Park, but he could return before Sunday's series opener. The 23-year-old tweaked his ribs while trying to rob a Shohei Ohtani home run in a loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday, and it was originally reported as a potential back injury. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now and check back later this weekend to see if he can return to the starting nine. Bryce Johnson could make a start on Friday in center field for the Friars against left-hander Jeffrey Springs. Merrill, along with plenty of other Padres hitters, has been a disappointment offensively so far in 2026. He entered Friday's games hitting just .203/.273/.322 with a career-low .595 OPS, four homers, 19 RBI, nine steals, and 23 runs scored across 47 games. UPDATE: Merrill is out of Friday's lineup.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar (upper body) won't play in Game 2 against the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday, ESPN's Ryan S. Clark reports. He will be out of the lineup for a second consecutive game due to an upper-body injury. Makar's absence leaves a gaping hole in Colorado's blue line, one that is nearly impossible to fill. The two-time Norris Trophy winner plays a major role on both ends of the ice. With Makar sidelined, Devon Toews led the team with 27:32 of ice time in Game 1, including 4:29 on the power play. Sam Malinski and Brent Burns also saw power-play time, while Brett Kulak was second among defensemen with 23:06 of ice time.--Taavi Pailk

Boston Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said on Friday that left-hander Garrett Crochet (shoulder) will throw a side session this weekend ahead of a live batting practice/simulated game early next week, according to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. Crochet is currently on the 15-day injured list with left-shoulder inflammation, and although he is making progress, his return to Boston's starting rotation isn't imminent. The talented southpaw has been out since April 25. Whether Crochet requires a minor-league rehab assignment will likely be dependent on how his throwing sessions this weekend and early next week go. Fantasy managers are going to need to be patient, as he is unlikely to be back in the big leagues until early June. The 26-year-old two-time All-Star was second in the American League Cy Young voting last year, but he has disappointed so far in 2026 with a 3-3 record, 6.30 ERA, 1.47 WHIP, and 37 strikeouts in 30 innings pitched across six starts. Crochet is rightfully rostered in 99% of Yahoo leagues.--Keith Hernandez

The Miami Marlins announced that left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling (elbow) had a left-elbow UCL repair with an internal brace on Friday, which was performed by Dr. Keith Meister. The timeline for Snelling's return to play is 10 to 12 months. Initial reports suggested that Snelling would undergo Tommy John surgery. Although Snelling will still miss the rest of the 2026 season and most likely half of next year, the internal-brace procedure should allow him to return on the early side of that timeline in 2027. The 22-year-old is considered Miami's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, but he'll have to wait until late next season to potentially make his return to the major-league starting rotation. The former first-rounder in 2022 by the San Diego Padres made his big-league debut on May 8 against the Washington Nationals and allowed three earned runs in five innings with four walks and two strikeouts before landing on the injured list. Snelling development will be on pause, but he's still a stash candidate in deep dynasty/keeper formats.--Keith Hernandez

Seattle Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford (triceps) is back at shortstop and will hit leadoff for the M's in Friday's series opener in Kansas City against the Royals and left-hander Noah Cameron, according to MLB.com. Crawford has missed a couple of games this week with a sore triceps muscle after he was initially hit by a pitch on Sunday in the series finale against the San Diego Padres, but he's back in action to kick off the weekend in KC. Rookie infielder Colt Emerson will shift back to third base and will hit ninth in the batting order against the Royals. The 31-year-old Crawford could be in danger of losing playing time on Seattle's infield this year if he continues to struggle at the plate. He enters Friday's game with a weak .210/.358/.364 slash line, .722 OPS, six home runs, 16 RBI, 23 runs scored, and one stolen base in 143 at-bats. With below-average power and speed at a premium position in fantasy, Crawford isn't much to look at. He is currently rostered in only 11% of Yahoo leagues. Crawford has gone 2-for-3 in his three career at-bats against Cameron, but he's gone 7-for-41 (.171) with one of his six homers this year against lefty pitchers.--Keith Hernandez

New York Yankees outfielder Trent Grisham (knee) is back in center field and in the leadoff spot for Friday's series opener against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Nick Martinez in the Bronx, per MLB.com. Grisham did not play on Thursday against the Toronto Blue Jays in the series finale after tweaking his knee on Thursday. Imaging on Grisham's knee came back negative, though, and he'll be back in there for the start of a big series in New York against the first-place Rays. The 29-year-old left-handed slugger can still provide fantasy managers with plenty of pop, but he has come back down to Earth in 2026 and is currently hitting just .174/.305/.348 with six long balls, 27 RBI, 27 runs scored, and three steals in 187 plate appearances. Grisham has been a big disappointment after clubbing a career-high 34 home runs and driving in 74 in 143 regular-season games in 2025. He has faced Martinez just three times in his career and has one hit against him.--Keith Hernandez

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Yandy Diaz (hands) is serving as the designated hitter and is batting cleanup for the Rays in Friday's series opener against the division-rival New York Yankees and right-hander Gerrit Cole, who is making his first major-league start since 2024, according to MLB.com. Jonathan Aranda is starting at first base for Tampa and will hit third in the batting order. Diaz got the day off on Wednesday against the Baltimore Orioles after being hit in both of his hands on Tuesday, but he's now back in action after the team had a day off on Thursday. Fantasy managers will want to plug Diaz back in their lineups in all formats now that he's back. He has gone 11-for-24 (.458) with three home runs, three doubles, 10 RBI, and seven runs scored during his six-game hitting streak, and he's also batting .318 with an .875 OPS, two home runs, and six RBI in 44 career at-bats against Cole in his career. The 34-year-old Cuban first baseman continues to be a hitting machine, as he enters Friday's action with a .316 average (55-for-174) and a .394 on-base percentage in 45 games.--Keith Hernandez

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (thumb) departed Thursday's series finale against the Miami Marlins with a left-thumb bone bruise, but he's back in right field and is batting leadoff for Atlanta in Friday's series opener against the division-rival Washington Nationals and left-handed opener Richard Lovelady, according to MLB.com. Thankfully, X-rays came back negative on Acuna, who recently returned from a stint on the injured list due to a hamstring strain. It's great news for the Braves and fantasy managers, and he should be returned to all starting lineups in traditional fantasy formats. Acuna's surface stats don't look great so far in 2026, but in five games since returning from the IL, he's riding a five-game hitting streak and has gone 7-for-17 (.412) with a double, two RBI, seven runs scored, and a stolen base across 20 plate appearances. Overall, the former MVP and five-time All-Star is slashing only .261/.370/.384 with two homers, 11 RBI, seven steals, and 22 runs scored. Acuna is a five-category contributor and could just be starting to heat up.--Keith Hernandez

The New York Yankees officially announced that they reinstated infielder/outfielder Jose Caballero (finger) from the 10-day injured list on Friday. Caballero is starting at shortstop and will hit seventh in his return on Friday versus the visiting Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Nick Martinez at Yankee Stadium in the series opener. With Caballero back after missing only 11 days due to a right middle-finger fracture, he'll take back over at the 6 and will send Anthony Volpe to the bench. Fantasy managers who need speed and versatility for their fantasy lineups should consider adding Caballero off the waiver wire if he is available. The 29-year-old native of Panama will return to a .259/.320/.400 slash line with a .720 OPS, four home runs, 13 RBI, 13 stolen bases, and 18 runs scored on the year. Caballero offers elite speed and is also eligible at second, third, shortstop, and the outfield. He's rostered in 72% of Yahoo leagues.

The Kansas City Royals expect left-hander Cole Ragans (elbow) to start a minor-league rehab assignment on Saturday with Triple-A Omaha. Ragans has finally been cleared to return to game action after throwing some bullpen sessions in the last week. Saturday will be his first performance since he was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 6 with a left-elbow impingement. The talented southpaw is expected to need a couple of rehab starts in the minors before the Royals put him back in their big-league starting rotation. The 28-year-old left-hander was excellent in 2024, going 11-9 for the Royals with a 3.14 ERA (2.99 FIP) and 1.14 WHIP with a career-high 223 strikeouts and 67 walks in 186 1/3 innings over 32 starts, but he made only 13 starts last year due to injury, and the injury bug has reared its head for him again in 2026. Ragans was 1-4 in his first eight starts in 2026 before going on the IL with a 4.84 ERA (6.19 FIP) and 1.41 WHIP, but he also had 45 K's in 35 1/3 frames and should remain stashed in an IL spot in most fantasy leagues while he recovers to see if he can rediscover his 2024 form.--Keith Hernandez

California quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele displayed the type of talent as a freshman that makes fans realize why they love the game of football so much. One highlight throw after another, Sagapolutele's quick release, zip on the ball, and accuracy make him such a special passer. As a freshman, the 6-foot-3 passer threw for 3,454 yards, 18 touchdowns, and nine interceptions. He impressed late in the season, leading wins over Louisville and SMU. Sagapolutele is surrounded with a lot more talent as a sophomore under first-year head coach Tosh Lupoi. Cal added Rutgers transfer Ian Strong, Ohio transfer Chase Hendricks, New Mexico tight end Dorian Thomas, and Washington running back Adam Mohammed to bolster the group of weapons around their rising star. He should be set up to improve as a sophomore, and could become a household name by the end of the season.--Brant Henson - RotoBaller

Florida running back Jadan Baugh is penciled in as one of college football's elite playmakers for the upcoming 2026 season. Despite being stuck in a stagnant offense a season ago, Baugh piled up 1,170 rushing yards, eight rushing touchdowns, 210 receiving yards, and two receiving touchdowns. Standing 6-foot-1, 231 pounds, the all-around running back's blend of size, athleticism, and power make him one of the nation's most punishing rushers. In year one under Jon Sumrall, the offense is primed to lean on the rising junior to carry the load. With either Aaron Philo or Tramell Jones Jr. set to start at quarterback, the lack of SEC experience at the quarterback position may naturally make the offense lean more on the ground game. Baugh has limitless talent, and could soar up 2027 NFL Draft boards with a strong season.--Brant Henson - RotoBaller

Former LSU head coach Ed Orgeron has rejoined the Tigers' staff under Lane Kiffin, per Pete Thamel. Orgeron's official title is the special assistant to recruiting and defense. The former Tigers' head coach previously parted ways with the program in 2021, just two years removed from the historic undefeated 2019 season. He has not held a coaching position since, and is returning to the sport after a nearly five-year hiatus. Orgeron went 51-20 as the Tigers' head coach from 2016-2021, finishing at a 31-17 mark in SEC games. The undefeated season with Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, and company was the high-point of his tenure, and he hopes to help Kiffin lead the Tigers back to the promised land.--Brant Henson - RotoBaller

Oregon wide receiver Evan Stewart (knee) missed the entire 2025 season with a torn patellar tendon, but the senior is fully healthy entering 2026. In a loaded receiver room also featuring Dakorien Moore, Jeremiah McClellan, and Iverson Hooks, Stewart is a leader. Quarterback Dante Moore stated, "Evan's been doing a great job ever since he got back, just being a leader. Even when he wasn't playing, he was being a leader in the facility, the way he carried himself, the way he was still participating in meetings, even though he wasn't able to play. But with him being back and healthy, he's just pushing that room way more, way better." Stewart's presence in a stacked receiving room will be very beneficial for Moore, who is looking to solidify himself as the top quarterback in the 2027 class.--Brant Henson - RotoBaller

North Carolina and South Carolina have canceled a home-and-home series that was originally scheduled for 2028-29. The rivalry between the two schools is not played yearly, but they have met five times since 2010. This series is the latest home-and-home between power conference opponents to be nixed as the state of college football continues to evolve. South Carolina has already added Bowling Green to their 2028 schedule as a replacement. North Carolina leads the all-time series with a record of 36-20-4.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder/designated hitter Kyle Schwarber (illness) is feeling better and is serving as the DH and batting second in Friday's series opener against the visiting Cleveland Guardians and right-hander Gavin Williams, according to MLB.com. Schwarber was under the weather earlier this week and missed the entire three-game series against the Cincinnati Reds, but he's back for the weekend series at Citizens Bank Park.

Schwarbs has added 36 RBI, 33 runs scored, and even a stolen base in his 178 at-bats so far in 2026. Fantasy managers are hoping that the three-time All-Star and former Silver Slugger winner can pick up where he left off before his illness, as he has gone 13-for-43 (.302) with nine home runs, a double, 16 RBI, 10 runs, and a steal in his last 10 games, dating back to May 7.

The New York Mets recalled top pitching prospect Jonah Tong from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday ahead of their series opener against the division-rival Miami Marlins, according to Will Sammon of The Athletic. In a corresponding move, veteran reliever Craig Kimbrel was designated for assignment. Tobias Myers will make the start in Miami on Friday, but the right-handed Tong could be used as the team's bulk reliever in his return to the majors. Per MLB Pipeline, Tong is considered New York's No. 2 prospect, behind only outfielder A.J. Ewing. The 22-year-old Canadian hurler made his big-league debut last year and made five starts, going 2-3 with a bloated 7.71 ERA and 1.77 WHIP with 22 strikeouts and nine walks across 18 2/3 innings. Before his call-up this year, Tong went 1-3 at Syracuse with an ugly 5.68 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, and 24 walks in nine starts (38 innings), but he also struck out 55 batters. For his strikeout upside alone, Tong is worth a look in mixed fantasy leagues as a potential long-term replacement in the Mets' starting rotation for Clay Holmes (leg). Tong is currently rostered in only 6% of Yahoo leagues, so the young prospect with a funky delivery is widely available.--Keith Hernandez

Colorado Rockies first base/outfield prospect Charlie Condon has only slugged four homers this year, but he has above-average power upside and an impressive ability to get on base. Through 40 Triple-A games this year, he's slashing .240/.370/.383 with four homers, 18 RBI, three steals, a career-high 15% walk rate, a 25% strikeout rate, and 88 wRC+. His walk rate ranks in the 80th percentile at Triple-A, and he's shown very good plate discipline overall with a 19.5% chase rate (89th percentile). His 105.7 mph EV90 also suggests that he could be getting unlucky in terms of home runs, and his ability to hit balls hard could lead to increased home run numbers once he reaches the hitter-friendly confines of Coors Field. A high-priority waiver wire target, Condon is available in 96% of leagues, and he ranks #2 among first base prospects in RotoBaller's latest redraft rankings.--Andersen Pickard
