Mason Miller Allows Three Hits, Two Runs on Monday
San Diego Padres relief pitcher Mason Miller started the season with sheer dominance over his first 13 games, allowing just three hits and picking up 27 strikeouts in 13 1/3 innings. On Monday, though, the 27-year-old closer looked human, giving up two earned runs on three hits with a wild pitch on Monday night against the Cubs. It was a non-save situation since he entered with a four-run lead, so it doesn't count as a blown save. The Padres still secured the 9-7 win, and Miller will still be an elite closer option going forward. This outing just serves as a reminder that he really is human, and keeping a 0.00 ERA for the entire season isn't realistic. He's sure to get the next save chance for the Padres, and this is not a cause for concern at this point for his fantasy managers. It is noteworthy, though, since it's the first time he's been touched at all this year.

Mikhail Sergachev Has Three Assists in Overtime Loss
Utah Mammoth defenseman Mikhail Sergachev opened his scoring account in the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs with three assists in Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights. Thanks to Sergachev's puck-moving ability, the Mammoth turned a 3-0 deficit into a 4-3 lead, but they couldn't close out the game. While Sergachev has over 100 postseason appearances under his belt, he has found his way onto the score sheet in back-to-back games just three times. Getting him going offensively would significantly improve Utah's chances against the Pacific Division champions in the first-round series.

George Holani One of the Draft's Biggest Losers
Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani served as the primary backup to Kenneth Walker III in both the NFC Championship and Super Bowl after Zach Charbonnet was lost to an ACL injury in the team's Divisional Round victory over the 49ers. With Walker departing for Kansas City in free agency and Charbonnet's recovery timeline likely to see him miss games in 2026, dynasty managers who were able to scoop up Holani were hoping he could maintain a meaningful role to begin his third season while still expecting the Seahawks to add competition through the NFL Draft. With Seattle holding only four picks entering the draft, there was a thought that they could miss out on one of the true difference-making backs in a weak class, but with so few needs, they were able to be aggressive and spend the final pick of the first round on Notre Dame prospect Jadarian Price. With Price expected to handle lead back duties to begin the year, and Charbonnet likely to complete the committee upon his return, Holani's potential fantasy impact looks to be limited and minimal, and he has fallen to RB99 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings.

Alex Vesia Pitches in Sixth Inning on Monday, Cause for Concern?
Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Alex Vesia pitched a scoreless inning and struck out the side on Monday night against the Marlins, but fantasy managers should take note that he made his appearance in the sixth inning. Manager Dave Roberts has said he'll go with a closer-by-committee approach while Edwin Díaz (elbow) is out until the second half, and while Vesia is part of that committee, it doesn't look like he'll be one of the primary closer options. The 30-year-old lefty has given up just two runs in 10 1/3 innings in 12 games this season while racking up 14 strikeouts. If a team has lefties due up at the end of a game, he could get a look in that matchup, but he'll be hard to count on for saves if Roberts follows Monday's pattern. He has been effective enough to be worth holding in deep leagues, but if all you are looking for is saves, he isn't a must-own option in standard leagues at this point.

Brett Howden Records Three Points in Vital Win
Vegas Golden Knights forward Brett Howden played a key role in Monday's 5-4 overtime comeback victory against the Utah Mammoth, scoring two goals and adding one assist. The Golden Knights were facing a 3-1 series deficit when Howden popped up with a game-tying goal midway through the third period. His first goal, scored in a shorthanded situation, gave Vegas a 2-0 lead in the first frame. Howden completed his three-point night with an assist on Shea Theodore's game-winning goal with less than a minute remaining in the first overtime period. Dating back to the regular season, Howden had gone six consecutive appearances without a point before sparking into life on Monday night. In Game 5 against Utah, he will aim to record points in back-to-back postseason games for the first time since the 2023 Stanley Cup Finals.

Munetaka Murakami Launches 12th Home Run, a Lineup Lock Going Forward?
Chicago White Sox first baseman Munetaka Murakami went 2-for-4 with three RBI and his 12th homer of the season on Monday night in his team's rain-delayed win over the Angels. The White Sox exploded for seven runs in the seventh inning of their 8-7 win, and Murakami delivered one of the big blows, smashing a three-run homer to give his team the lead. The 26-year-old from Japan has quickly established himself as one of the biggest early-season fantasy baseball breakouts, hitting .243 with a .407 wOBA in his 29 games, with 12 homers, 23 RBI, and a 61.9% hard-hit rate. Murakami has the sixth-highest barrel rate per batted ball event and the sixth-highest hard-hit rate in the majors this season, and he hit his homer on Monday night against veteran lefty Drew Pomeranz. Four of his 12 homers have come off southpaws, so he is a great power option to keep in your lineup regardless of matchup going forward.

Kendre Miller Not Guaranteed a Roster Spot with Saints
New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller was a third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, but a frustrating rash of injuries has limited him to only 21 games played and 497 career rushing yards. The Saints spent big in free agency, bringing in former Jaguar Travis Etienne Jr. on a four-year, $48 million deal, and unless they make a move to thin their ranks, it appears that Miller will head into training camp fourth on the depth chart behind Etienne, 10-year veteran Alvin Kamara, and 2025 sixth-round pick Devin Neal, who handled lead back duties down the stretch of his rookie season. When active, Miller has played a role on special teams, which could be his best shot to stick with the team, but as RotoBaller's dynasty RB90, he is no longer a must-hold for managers looking to clear bench spots for the incoming crop of rookies.

Rasmus Ristolainen Registers Two Assists in Game 5 Loss
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen had his second multi-assist game of the 2026 playoffs on Monday, setting up a pair of goals in a 3-2 defeat to the Pittsburgh Penguins. In the second period, Ristolainen helped Alex Bump score in his Stanley Cup Playoffs debut and added a second assist on Travis Sanheim's goal. Ristolainen isn't known for his offensive prowess, yet he has emerged as Philadelphia's scoring leader in this series. After five games, Ristolainen has tallied five points (one goal, four assists), matching Penguins superstar Sidney Crosby. The Finnish rearguard is also averaging 1.8 hits per game in the series.

Arturs Silovs Helps Penguins Survive for Second Time
Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Arturs Silovs had another strong performance in the Stanley Cup Playoffs first-round series against the Philadelphia Flyers on Monday, stopping 18 pucks in a 3-2 win. The Latvian native became the third goaltender in Penguins history to record each of his first two playoff wins with the team in elimination games. Pittsburgh's decision to replace Stuart Skinner with Silovs has shifted the momentum in the matchup, leaving Dan Muse's team now only one win away from tying the series. Silovs has posted a .920 save percentage against Philadelphia, a significant improvement over Skinner's .873.

Sidney Crosby Delivers Two Assists in Elimination Game Win
Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby recorded two assists as the team staved off elimination for the second time against the Philadelphia Flyers with a 3-2 win on Monday. The Penguins captain was also inches away from scoring a goal, missing an empty net twice late in the game. Crosby has stepped up in the last couple of games, posting back-to-back multi-point outings after his team fell into a 3-0 hole in the first-round matchup. Pittsburgh hasn't won a playoff series since 2018, and Crosby has entered desperation mode to avoid another early postseason exit. Overall, he has produced one goal and four assists in the series.

Predators Pick Up KHL Standout Vitali Pinchuk
The Nashville Predators have signed forward Vitali Pinchuk to a one-year entry-level contract. The 24-year-old will join the Predators next season after spending the past six campaigns with Minsk Dynamo of the KHL. In 2025-26, he recorded a career-high 66 points (31 goals, 35 assists) in 65 games, ranking third in goals in the league. Pinchuk, a Belarusian native, was an undrafted free agent. According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, Pinchuk had narrowed his NHL options to Nashville and the Los Angeles Kings. The Predators were one of 13 teams to average fewer than 3.00 goals per game this season, and adding Pinchuk could give the offense a welcome boost if he adapts well to his new surroundings.

Paolo Banchero's Efficiency Woes Continue in Game 4
Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero made only four of 18 field-goal attempts in Monday's 94-88 win over the Detroit Pistons. He finished with 18 points, doing most of his scoring with a 10-for-13 effort at the line. For the second time in this series, Banchero failed to make a three-pointer, going 0-for-4 from behind the arc. The 2024 All-Star completed his line on Monday with eight rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block. The Pistons have limited Banchero to 37.3 percent field-goal efficiency in the first-round matchup, but Orlando has still grabbed a 3-1 series lead. Banchero has made up for his efficiency woes with improved efforts in other areas. Through four games, he is averaging 21.0 points, 8.8 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.0 blocks, and 1.5 steals.

Julius Randle Leads Timberwolves With 27 Points Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle scored a team-high 27 points in Monday's 125-113 Game 5 loss to the Denver Nuggets. He tied Nikola Jokic for the game-high, finishing 8-for-15 from the field and 9-for-11 at the line. Randle, who made two of his four attempts from deep, also led the Timberwolves with nine rebounds and matched a team high with six assists. The three-time All-Star stepped up his game, as was expected after Minnesota lost Anthony Edwards (knee). The Timberwolves need Randle to keep up his form to close out the series.

Rickie Fowler Rides History into the Blue Monster at Doral
Rickie Fowler has experience playing in the Miami area. The American golfer lives in Florida (Jupiter) and played in the last six WGC Championships (before it ended in 2016). Fowler had two Top 10 results in those six years and three Top 15 outcomes. Even with further course updates, the golfer carries some buzz to finish inside the Top 20 (+120 at DraftKings). Fowler rode an opening round 65 to a T-8 finish at the RBC Heritage nine days ago. One of the bigger aspects of Fowler's game is his improved driving accuracy (63.9% - 19th) and putting (0.518 strokes gained - 16th). With his ability for lower numbers, Fowler is a reasonable DFS possibility and could be intriguing from a betting perspective too.

Nikola Jokic Records Big Triple-Double as Nuggets Stay Alive
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic finished Monday's 125-113 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves with 27 points, 12 rebounds, and 16 assists. He led his team in all categories as the Nuggets extended the first-round series. Jokic has struggled with efficiency this postseason, but the story was different on Monday night. He was 9-for-15 from the field and 8-for-10 at the charity stripe. However, the multi-time MVP still couldn't find his range from deep, going 1-for-4. Defensively, Jokic contributed two blocks. Jokic has posted two triple-doubles in the series, averaging 25.4 points, 14.0 rebounds, 9.4 assists, and 1.2 steals. He will lead the way again when Denver faces another fight for survival in Game 6.

Keegan Bradley on Good Run Heading into Cadillac Championship
Keegan Bradley has played better over his last two PGA events. The American golfer finished inside the Top 25 at both events. Bradley had an excellent Sunday each time as well (68 and 66 respectively). One of the wrinkles this week is a new event at the Blue Monster at Doral. A 7.739-yard course weights heavily on some golfers but Bradley has solid driving metrics (306.3 yards - 55th and 62.5% accuracy - 38th). Doral is more than long holes and features upgraded hazards and obstacles. Bradley had early odds around +6000 to win but looking toward a Top 20 at +146 via DraftKings. Bradley's greens in regulation (62.04% - 142nd) is the only red flag but that number has improved of late.

He was 9-for-16 from the field, including 2-for-5 from downtown, and nailed all four attempts at the charity stripe. While Holmgren couldn't register any blocks, he helped out on the defensive end with two steals. The 23-year-old also had three assists in 34 minutes.

The Suns couldn't contain the reigning MVP throughout the series, as Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 33.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 8.0 assists. Over the last three games, he notched 36.7 points with a 63.3 percent field-goal efficiency. This will provide Gilgeous-Alexander with strong momentum heading into the next series.

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (calf) is set to have an MRI on Tuesday. The German star, who missed 48 games with an ankle sprain during the regular season, suffered another injury blow in Monday's win over the Detroit Pistons, exiting the game due to right calf soreness. Before he was forced to leave, Wagner was enjoying his best performance of the playoffs. He scored 19 points with a 7-for-15 effort from the field, adding five rebounds, three assists, and four steals in 24 minutes. Jamal Cain stands to see increased minutes in the rotation if Wagner misses more time. He was close to a double-double in Monday's win, scoring eight points and grabbing nine rebounds.

Anthony Volpe Might Not Return This Week
The New York Yankees have not decided if shortstop Anthony Volpe (shoulder) will be with the big-league club this weekend when they play the division-rival Baltimore Orioles in the Bronx, according to Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. Volpe is currently continuing his minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset. A report earlier on Monday suggested that Volpe could be reinstated from the 10-day injured list on either Wednesday or Thursday. Fantasy managers might have to wait a bit longer on the 24-year-old, who is recovering from offseason surgery to fix a torn labrum in his left (non-throwing) shoulder. Volpe is currently rostered in only 9% of Yahoo leagues, but that number should be on the rise over the coming week with his return on the horizon. When activated, Volpe will be New York's primary starter at the 6, relegating Jose Caballero to more of a utility role in the Big Apple. Volpe, a former first-rounder, has 52 home runs, 192 RBI, and 70 steals in his three MLB seasons, but he's also hitting just .222 in 1,886 plate appearances.

Carlos Rodon to Make his Next Rehab Start on Thursday
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on Monday that left-hander Carlos Rodon (elbow) will make his next minor-league rehab start on Thursday at Double-A Somerset, according to Erik Boland of Newsday. In his first rehab outing with High-A Hudson Valley on Friday, the 33-year-old veteran southpaw threw 4 1/3 scoreless innings with one hit allowed, one walk, and four strikeouts. Rodon has yet to make his 2026 season debut after having surgery last October to remove loose bodies in his left elbow, but he's on the verge of rejoining the Yankees' starting rotation in early April, barring a setback. Look for Rodon to up his pitch count in Thursday's outing on the farm. He might only need one or two more rehab starts before coming off the 15-day injured list. The former third overall pick in 2014 by the White South out of North Carolina State is definitely deserving of being stashed in all fantasy leagues with his season debut getting closer. He's currently rostered in 86% of Yahoo leagues.

Giancarlo Stanton Heading to Injured List With Calf Strain
New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (calf) has been diagnosed with a low-grade calf strain and will land on the 10-day injured list, according to Erik Boland of Newsday. It's an injury that Stanton suffered last Friday night in the team's series opener against the Houston Astros, and he has not played since. The good news is that Stanton's calf injury is more of a minor injury, so he could have a chance at returning from the IL when he's eligible. In the meantime, outfielder Jasson Dominguez should see regular at-bats as the team's DH, at least against right-handed pitching. Randal Grichuk and Amed Rosario are also candidates to see some plate appearances in the short term against lefties at DH. The 36-year-old Stanton is still a solid source of power for fantasy managers, but IL stints are part of the package. Hopefully, his stay on the IL will be short. In his first 90 at-bats of 2026 before his calf injury, Stanton has hit .256 with three long balls, 14 RBI, eight runs scored, and a stolen base. Stanton should be stashed in an IL spot everywhere that he's rostered.

Mike Vrabel Returns to the Patriots on Monday
After missing Day 3 of the 2026 NFL draft on Saturday to be with his family, New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel returned to the team on Monday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Vrabel has been in the news for the wrong reasons of late and will reportedly seek counseling after reports emerged about his alleged relationship with former NFL reporter Dianna Russini. Vrabel, who led the Patriots to the Super Bowl last season in his first year at the helm, isn't facing any kind of charges and is not expected to face any discipline from the NFL for the 2026 campaign. There are also no signs that Vrabel will step down from his responsibilities as the Patriots' head coach for the upcoming season.

Tyree Wilson Heading into Contract Year With New Team
The New Orleans Saints declined defensive end Tyree Wilson's fifth-year option on Monday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Saints general manager Mickey Loomis called this "a one-year trial, and we'll see how it goes." During last week's 2026 NFL draft, the Saints acquired the former first-round edge rusher from the Las Vegas Raiders. The 25-year-old pass-rusher will head to the Big Easy after recording 91 tackles (57 solo), 12 sacks, 16 tackles for loss, 24 QB hits, four forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries in 50 games (seven starts) over his first three years with the Raiders. In 17 games in 2025, Wilson, the former seventh overall pick in 2023 out of Texas Tech, had a career-high 35 tackles (25 solo), four sacks, eight tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery. Had the Saints picked up Wilson's fifth-year option, it would have cost them $14.475 million in 2027. New Orleans is hoping their low-cost investment pays dividends with a change of scenery.

Buccaneers Pick Up Fifth-Year Option on Calijah Kancey
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers picked up the fifth-year option on the contract of defensive lineman Calijah Kancey on Monday, according to Scott Smith of the team's official website. Kancey will now be under contract through the 2027 season and will make $14.475 million next year. The 25-year-old was the team's first-round pick (19th overall) in 2023 out of Pittsburgh. The Bucs still believe in Kancey, even though he played in only three games in 2025 due to a pectoral injury that he originally suffered in Week 2. In his first two years in the league, Kancey registered 54 tackles (41 solo), 11.5 sacks, 21 tackles for loss, 29 QB hits, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery in 26 starts. According to Next Gen Stats, he has 66 QB pressures in 29 career games. Kancey's statistics for IDP fantasy leagues don't exactly stand out at first glance, but he's definitely been a disruptor on the defensive line for Tampa when he's been healthy. The Bucs defense will be in a much better spot in 2026 if Kancey can stay on the field in his fourth year in the NFL.

Eagles Exercise Fifth-Year Option on Jalen Carter
The Philadelphia Eagles exercised the fifth-year option for defensive tackle Jalen Carter on Monday, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Carter will make roughly $27 million in 2027. The Eagles also picked up the fifth-year option on outside linebacker Nolan Smith for the 2027 season. Carter's fifth-year option was a no-brainer, as the 25-year-old former ninth overall selection out of Georgia in 2023 has been a Pro Bowler in each of the last two seasons. In his three seasons in Philly, Carter has a total of 108 tackles (66 solo), 13.5 sacks, 25 tackles for loss, 37 QB hits, and seven pass breakups in 43 games (27 starts) during the regular season. Carter played in a career-low 11 games last year, though, due to a few injuries and a suspension for spitting on Cowboys QB Dak Prescott. It led to a career-low three sacks in 2025. Carter is already becoming one of the best interior defensive linemen because of his abilities as both a pass-rusher and run-stopper.

Eagles Pick Up Nolan Smith's Fifth-Year Option
The Philadelphia Eagles are picking up the fifth-year option for pass-rusher Nolan Smith, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Smith will be locked in for roughly $13.7 million in 2027. The Eagles will sign up for another year of Smith despite the fact that he played in only 12 games in 2025 due to a triceps injury that he initially suffered in training camp. The 25-year-old former 30th overall pick in 2023 out of Georgia totaled 31 tackles (15 solo), three sacks, 11 QB hits, and a forced fumble in his 12 regular-season starts last year. He's recorded 10.5 total sacks in 45 games played (22 starts) in his three years with the Eagles, and how he performs in the upcoming season will go a long way towards determining if the team wants to sign him to a long-term extension. In addition to Smith, the Eagles picked up defensive tackle Jalen Carter's fifth-year option for 2027.

Bills Aren't Giving Up on Keon Coleman
Buffalo Bills president of football operations and general manager Brandon Beane has supported wide receiver Keon Coleman during recent interviews, and he even said the Bills "shut down" a couple of teams that reached out to Buffalo with trade interest in Coleman earlier this offseason. Beane said that Buffalo's intention is for "Keon to be here," and also said the Bills have "hit the reset button with him." Both Beane and new head coach Joe Brady have spoken highly of the work that Coleman has put in this offseason. The 22-year-old former second-rounder in 2024 out of Florida State has been a disappointment for the team in his two NFL seasons, both on and off the field. He regressed in 2025, catching 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games. The Bills' front office and coaching staff might not be giving up on Coleman, but there's no denying that his fantasy stock in dynasty/keeper leagues has dropped significantly. There will be added competition after the Bills acquired DJ Moore in a trade with Chicago, and drafted Skyler Bell out of UConn in the fourth round.

Former Steelers Coach Thinks Aaron Rodgers Will Return to Pittsburgh
Former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin, who will join NBC's Football Night in America in 2026, said that at the end of the day, he thinks free-agent veteran Aaron Rodgers will be the team's quarterback this season. Both Tomlin and new Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy seem confident in Rodgers' abilities, even though he'll turn 43 this December. Pittsburgh had Will Howard and Mason Rudolph in the QB room before selecting rookie Drew Allar in the third round of last week's NFL draft. Even with Allar in the mix now, Rodgers would likely be the Steelers' starter under center to begin the 2026 regular season if he ultimately re-signs in Pittsburgh. The Steelers wouldn't mind having Allar be mentored by one of the game's best at the position. Rodgers, a four-time MVP and 10-time Pro Bowler, was the QB19 in fantasy in 2025, throwing 24 touchdowns and seven interceptions with 3,322 passing yards in 16 games. The Steelers have added some talent at WR, most notably Michael Pittman Jr., but Rodgers will still be considered more of a low-end QB2 in fantasy football if he returns to the Steel City for one more season.

Chris Gotterup Looks to Continue Big-Game Hunting at Cadillac Championship
The strong season for Chris Gotterup continues at Trump National Doral, as the long-hitting 26-year-old will make his first start at this iconic venue. It's been a long time since the PGA Tour set up shop here, and the U.S. Open-like conditions that will be presented here are the perfect place for him to flex his ballstriking muscle. He ranks ninth on the season in strokes gained from tee to green, and while the 0.423 strokes gained on approach is impressive in its own right, it has been the 0.613 strokes gained off the tee that has been the real bright spot. If Gotterup can avoid his share of three-putts on the massive green complexes and avoid making the big numbers that are possible on many of these holes, he'll be a fine play in most lineup constructions.
