Si Woo Kim finished tied for 65th at last week's Truist Championship but will now look forward to this week's PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club in Newton Square, Pennsylvania. Kim is putting together an outstanding 2026 season. He has no missed cuts and nine top-25 finishes in 14 starts this season, with his best finish being a tied for second at the Farmers Insurance Open earlier this season. Kim finished tied for eighth at last year's PGA Championship and missed the cut in the 2024 edition. Over the past 12 months, Kim ranks in the 91st percentile in greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway.--Ian Christenson - RotoBaller

Gary Woodland finished tied for 17th at last week's Truist Championship and will now start his preparations for this week's PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club in Newton Square, Pennsylvania. Woodland has one win, four missed cuts, and three top-25 finishes in 12 starts this season. After starting this season rather shakily, Woodland has bounced back nicely, securing one win and three top-25 finishes in his previous six starts. Woodland missed the cut at last year's PGA Championship and tied for 60th in the 2024 edition. Over the past 12 months, Woodland ranks in the 63rd percentile in greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway.--Ian Christenson - RotoBaller

Xander Schauffele is coming off his worst finish of the 2026 season after finishing tied for 60th at last week's Truist Championship. He'll look to bounce back at this week's PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club in Newton Square, Pennsylvania. Schauffele had rattled off seven straight top-25 finishes before last week, with his best finish being a third-place finish at the PLAYERS Championship back in March. Schauffele finished tied for 28th at last year's PGA Championship and walked away as the champion in the 2024 edition. Over the past 12 months, Schauffele ranks in the 96th percentile in greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway.--Ian Christenson - RotoBaller

Rickie Fowler continued his hot stretch at the Truist Championship, finishing T2 and extending his streak of top-10 finishes to three straight events. He'll look to keep it rolling at the PGA Championship, being held at Aronimink Golf Club. His strong play this season has pushed him up to 17th on Tour in total strokes gained (+0.993 per round), 32nd on approach (+0.331), and 12th in putting (+0.568). The one area that has tripped him up has been around the greens, where he ranks 112th (-0.142 per round). Long-iron play could be a huge factor this week, where Fowler is solid, ranking 78th in proximity from over 200 yards (51'7"). At just $7,400 on DraftKings, Fowler is playing some of the best golf we've seen from him in quite a while, and there's no reason to believe he'll be slowing down anytime soon.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Since his T12 at The Masters, Jason Day has not been quite as sharp, posting finishes of T42, T38, and 68th in his last three starts. Despite this, he continues to be elite around the greens, ranking seventh on Tour and gaining +0.430 strokes per round. The concern remains his approach play, where he sits just 144th, losing -0.482 strokes per round. Regardless of those struggles, Day has consistently elevated his game at major championships throughout his career, and he has six top-10 finishes at the PGA Championship, including a win in 2015. At $7,800 on DraftKings, Day brings serious boom-or-bust potential at a tournament where he has found plenty of success in the past.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

Jacob Bridgeman started the year red hot, recording eight straight finishes of T18 or better, including a win. Since then, however, he has not finished better than T33 in four straight events. He'll look to regain some momentum at the PGA Championship, being held at Aronimink Golf Club. In three career major starts, Bridgeman has missed the cut twice, with his best result being a T41 at The Masters earlier this year. He does rank first on Tour in strokes gained putting (+0.939 per round), 39th on approach (+0.302), and 37th in total driving. One area that has held him back is long-iron approach shots, where he ranks just 148th in proximity from over 200 yards, something that could become a major factor with three of the four par 3s playing beyond this length this week. With his form trending in the wrong direction and poor results in majors, Bridgeman profiles as a tough player to trust this week.--Dakota Legg - RotoBaller

The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt writes that New York Jets fourth-round rookie quarterback Cade Klubnik is quickly becoming a fan favorite and could have a chance to win the backup job behind veteran Geno Smith to begin his first year in the NFL in 2026. Klubnik was accurate and threw the ball well in rookie minicamp over the weekend, although it was closer to a walkthrough pace than a full-blown practice tempo. The 22-year-old's draft stock fell after a poor final season at Clemson in 2025 in which he dealt with ankle and wrist injuries. The word "aura" is being thrown around explaining Klubnik's presence early on, and the Jets' decision to slow-play their pursuit of another veteran backup QB suggests that they could give Klubnik an opportunity to be Smith's backup. Klubnik's primary competition for that job will be Brady Cook. "He's a really smart man," head coach Aaron Glenn said. "We're going to push the envelope with (him) and see exactly where he's at and how he's going to be able to operate with our offense." Klubnik has a ways to go, but his dynasty stock should only continue to rise in a Jets organization planning to start Smith, who was one of the worst QBs in 2025.--Keith Hernandez

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (knee) was seen taking part in the team's offseason program on Tuesday at the team's facilities, six months removed from tearing his left ACL on Nov. 16 of last year in a game against the Carolina Panthers, reports ESPN's Marc Raimondi. Penix threw to receiver Drake London in Georgia. The 26-year-old former eighth overall pick out of the University of Washington in 2024 has suffered three torn ACLs in the last eight years after he tore his right ACL twice in college. With his availability for the start of the 2026 campaign this fall in question, Atlanta signed former Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa to a one-year, $1.3 million deal in March. The Falcons are on record as saying that Penix will compete with Tagovailoa for the starting gig under center when he's healthy this summer. Penix believes he'll be ready for Week 1 in early September, but the Falcons haven't been clear on a timeline for when the lefty will be back. Penix has disappointed in his two seasons in the NFL, completing 59.6% of his passes for 2,757 yards, 12 touchdowns, and six interceptions in just 14 games (12 starts). Durability concerns alone have caused Penix's dynasty fantasy value to plummet this offseason. He's currently ranked 27th at the QB position in dynasty formats at RotoBaller.--Keith Hernandez

Carolina Panthers president of football operations/general manager Dan Morgon told the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero on Tuesday that the organization will continue to "talk through" a potential long-term contract extension with quarterback Bryce Young. Morgan added that the team "will figure it out at the right time," and that the team "loves him" as he works hard to improve year after year. Carolina unsurprisingly picked up the 24-year-old's fifth-year option for the 2027 season, so they don't exactly have to be in a rush to sign him to an extension. The former first overall pick in 2023 out of Alabama looked overmatched as a rookie and was benched in favor of Andy Dalton in Year 2, but he took a big step forward in 2025, throwing for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions in 16 regular-season starts. Young's physical attributes don't exactly jump out at you, but he has shown in the last year and a half that he has what it takes to at least be a competent starter in the NFL. His dynasty stock is on the rise, but RotoBaller still has him ranked only as the No. 28 QB in those formats.--Keith Hernandez

New York Yankees infielder Jose Caballero (finger) went on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a fractured middle finger, but MLB.com's Bryan Hoch reports that he will reclaim the starting shortstop job from Anthony Volpe when he's fully healthy. "He's played as well as anyone out there," manager Aaron Boone said. "So that would be my expectation." Despite dealing with a fractured finger, Boone said the hope is that the speedy Caballero will spend the minimum of 10 days on the IL. "It just depends how he heals up over the next few days. He's got a small fracture in there, but the tendon and ligaments are all good. So we don't think it's going to be long," Boone said. The news makes Volpe less attractive as a waiver-wire pickup in fantasy leagues, even though he's expected to play regularly at the 6 with Caballero sidelined. The 29-year-old Caballero should be held in fantasy leagues where he's rostered after slashing .259/.320/.400 with seven doubles, four homers, 13 RBI, and 13 steals in 41 games. He leads all big-league shortstops with nine defensive runs saved and is mostly useful for his high-end speed in fantasy.--Keith Hernandez

Detroit Tigers shortstop/third baseman Kevin McGonigle has hit the ground running as a rookie this season, hitting .300/.403/.447 with two home runs, 16 RBI, 26 runs scored, and six stolen bases in his first 176 MLB plate appearances. McGonigle's plate skills are elite for a 21-year-old as he's drawn a walk in 13.6% of his plate appearances while logging just a 12.5% strikeout rate. With an 11.1% barrel rate, McGonigle could also unlock some more power as the weather heats up in Detroit in the summer months. The youngster is already locked into an everyday role at or near the top of the Tigers' lineup, which should allow him to continue to rack up runs and RBI. It's still obviously very early in McGonigle's career, but he looks like a high-floor fantasy producer with the potential to provide value across all five rotisserie categories.--Will Brady

With two wins over the last two months, Cameron Young comes into this week's PGA Championship as one of the top three favorites ahead of Thursday's opening round. It's hard not to be impressed with what we've seen from the 29-year-old in 2026. There isn't a single glaring weakness to speak of right now besides a middling three-putt avoidance metric (ranked 86th on the year). However, being one of the best players thus far in bogey avoidance and birdie-or-better percentage totally negates the worry. Anyone who's watched PGA Tour golf since the beginning of March has seen the run the former Demon Deacon has been on, and why he is an absolute must-play come Thursday.--Todd McGill

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Aaron Nola has struggled mightily through his first eight starts of 2026, posting a 2-3 record with a 5.14 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, and 44 strikeouts across 42 innings. The 32-year-old's issues are a continuation of his down season in 2025, when he logged a 6.01 ERA across 17 starts. Nola's 24% strikeout rate is down from his peak, but remains a manageable figure. However, his 8.2% walk rate is his worst since 2019. The long ball is also a major impediment to success for Nola, as he owns a 1.50 HR/9 after recording a 1.72 HR/9 in 2025. While Nola allowed homers at a high rate even during his peak years, he no longer limits traffic well enough to work around his tendency to get taken deep. Nola's track record of success and his continued ability to rack up strikeouts allow him to maintain some fantasy appeal, but he's prone to a blow-up start at any time at this point in his career.--Will Brady

The last time important golf was played at Aronimink Golf Club, Justin Rose was in a playoff to win. It didn't sway in the Englishman's favor in the end, but the good vibes will hopefully be present for him again this week. He hasn't played well in his last two outings, with dips in metrics across the board. However, the veteran has been one of the more accurate players this season, ranking eighth in greens in regulation (70.43%) and hitting over 60% of his fairways. He's also solid in three-putt avoidance and par-4 scoring average, which are two of the more important niche stats of the week. At the age of 45, Rosey is in the stage of his career where performance droughts occur more frequently than they did 10 or 15 years ago, but he still has plenty of juice to contend at the highest level on any given week, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see him in the mix again this week.--Todd McGill

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Michael King is off to a strong start to the 2026 season, as he's recorded a 3-2 record with a 2.76 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 45 strikeouts across 45 2/3 innings (eight starts). With an 11.1% walk rate, King's control remains a bit of a concern. However, the 30-year-old has gotten his ground ball rate back up to 45.8% this season after seeing it drop to a career-low 38.3% in 2025. As a result, King's HR/9 has dropped from 1.47 to 0.79, which is more in line with his career rate of 0.95. King was limited to just 15 starts in 2025 by shoulder and knee injuries, so health remains a potential red flag in his profile. Still, as long as King stays on the mound, he should provide reliable production for fantasy managers in 2026.--Will Brady

St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Riley O'Brien has emerged as his team's primary closer with a strong start to the 2026 season. Across 19 innings, O'Brien has pitched to a 2.84 ERA and 0.95 WHIP with 23 strikeouts and 11 saves. However, the 31-year-old has run into a bit of a rough patch of late, as he's allowed six earned runs and blown two saves over his last 5 2/3 innings pitched. Even with the recent struggles, O'Brien's ridiculously dominant 29.3% K-BB rate indicates that the downturn is likely a momentary blip. Still, O'Brien does not have a long track record as a closer, which could lead to him being on a shorter leash in the role. Fantasy managers should remain positive on O'Brien's season-long outlook, but his next few appearances are worth monitoring.--Will Brady

It's been scarce for Rory McIlroy over the last couple of months, as he has only played three events since the beginning of March. It didn't stop him from repeating at Augusta, but he seemed rusty at last week's Truist Championship, losing strokes both on and around the green. He has already scoped out Aronimink ahead of this week and has expressed confidence in his comfort level around the property. The 37-year-old has all of the ball-striking prowess needed to go two for two, as he leads the PGA Tour in strokes gained off the tee (0.854) and tee to green (1.703). He's likely to sure up his performance around the green and with the flat stick to be one of the best DFS plays of the week.--Todd McGill

Texas Rangers outfielder Brandon Nimmo (ankle) was forced to exit early from his team's matchup on Tuesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks after rolling his ankle in a collision at first base, per Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News. Nimmo originally tried to stay in the game but was eventually pulled. The 33-year-old is off to a strong start to his first season with Texas, hitting .288/.367/.436 with four home runs, 12 RBI, 18 runs scored, and one stolen base across 177 plate appearances. Nimmo has been known to play through injury in the past, as he's logged at least 650 plate appearances in each of the last four seasons. Still, he could now be facing a trip to the injured list. Rangers outfielder Sam Haggerty replaced Nimmo on Tuesday and would likely be in line for more playing time if Nimmo ends up missing games. UPDATE: Nimmo has been diagnosed with a left-ankle sprain. He's considered day-to-day after X-rays on his ankle came back negative.--Will Brady

Pittsburgh Pirates left-hander Gregory Soto picked up his fourth save of the season on Tuesday in his team's 3-1 win over the Colorado Rockies. Soto allowed two hits and an earned run, but managed to shut the door on the Rockies in the ninth. The 31-year-old is off to an excellent start to the 2026 season, as he's pitched to a 1.69 ERA and 0.71 WHIP with 26 strikeouts across 21 1/2 innings pitched. Soto has also earned saves in three out of his last four appearances and appears to be emerging as the primary closer in Pittsburgh after opening the season in a setup role. In any league where he's not already rostered, Soto profiles as a must-add closer for fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire.--Will Brady

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer has been a solid backup to Brock Bowers, but The Athletic's Sam Warren writes that "there have been hints that more opportunities could be coming" for Mayer in 2026 under new head coach Klint Kubiak. The team's new head coach has an "affinity for bigger formations," which means the Raiders could feature more two-tight-end sets this year, and Mayer could be more of a pass-catching threat. The 24-year-old former second-rounder (35th overall) in 2023 out of Notre Dame was a TE1 streaming option when Bowers missed time with injury last year, and he finished with career highs in catches (35), targets (50), and receiving yards (328) in 13 games (12 starts) while scoring one time. Vegas added receiver Jalen Nailor in the offseason, but nobody in their WR room has a ton of experience, and veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins could lean on both Bowers and Mayer early on in 2026. In redraft leagues, Mayer will be a low-upside, low-end TE2, at best. And in dynasty formats, RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 43 TE.--Keith Hernandez

It was a joyful week in Myrtle Beach that saw Brooks Koepka fire a 64 in the third round, ultimately finishing T11. In terms of statistics, it was about as poor a finish as a player who led the field in strokes gained from tee to green could have. The one thing that held him back was the flat stick, as he lost over two strokes over the four days. It's a weird place for the five-time major champion to be heading to a place like Aronimink, where his tour-leading strokes gained on approach (0.983) metric is a wonderful quality to have. But he's been a real liability on the greens, which is perhaps the biggest area of importance this week. Koepka should do enough to play all four days in Philadelphia, but how far he can climb up the leaderboard will be left up to one area of his game that has been untrustworthy. Play the 36-year-old with caution. --Todd McGill

Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (groin) threw a live batting practice session on Monday, according to Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic. Mize is on the 15-day injured list due to a right-groin strain, but he might be ready to return shortly after he's eligible to come off the IL on Thursday. He started throwing bullpen sessions over the weekend, and at this right, he could avoid a minor-league rehab assignment before rejoining Detroit's starting rotation. The 29-year-old former first overall pick out of Auburn in the 2018 MLB draft lacks a ton of fantasy upside because of his modest 7.6 career K/9 in 471 innings in the big leagues, but he was pitching well before his injury. In six starts so far in 2026, Mize holds a 2.90 ERA (2.86 FIP) and 1.19 WHIP with 35 strikeouts and 11 walks in 31 innings pitched across six starts. Mize is currently rostered in 42% of Yahoo leagues and will definitely be useful as a back-end rotation arm in mixed leagues if he continues to pitch like he has early on.--Keith Hernandez

Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Paul Skenes made easy work of the visiting Colorado Rockies at PNC Park on Tuesday night for his sixth win of the season. Skenes threw eight shutout innings and only allowed two hits, walking none and striking out 10 to drop his ERA on the season to 1.98. Since his uncharacteristic outlier performance on Opening Day against the New York Mets, when he surrendered five earned runs in just two-thirds of an inning, the two-time All-Star, former National League Rookie of the Year, and last year's NL Cy Young winner has given up a grand total of six earned runs in eight starts. He has thrown 16 shutout innings in his last two starts with 17 strikeouts, no walks, and only four hits allowed. It's safe to say that Skenes has rounded into his dominant self in 2026, and he'll be a no-brainer must-start in all fantasy formats for his next scheduled outing against the struggling Philadelphia Phillies.--Keith Hernandez

Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Jared Jones (elbow) looked impressive in his third minor-league rehab start on Tuesday with Double-A Altoona, tossing four scoreless innings with three hits allowed, no walks, and four strikeouts. The 24-year-old former second-round pick in 2020 hasn't shown a dip in velocity during his three rehab starts after having surgery on his right elbow last year, and he threw 36 of his 52 pitches for strikes on Tuesday. Jones is on the 60-day injured list, which means he's not eligible to be reinstated to make his 2026 season debut until later this month. Because of his extended absence, fantasy managers probably shouldn't expect him to rejoin Pittsburgh's starting rotation until early June. He'll have at least a few more starts down on the farm to build up his pitch count. Jones has been overshadowed by pitching phenom Paul Skenes in Pittsburgh, but he was impressive in his 22 starts in his rookie season in 2024 and is one of the better injured pitchers to stash in fantasy leagues. He's currently rostered in 35% of Yahoo leagues as he makes his way back.--Keith Hernandez
