Mike Green To Miss At Least One Month

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Mike Green (virus) is expected to miss at least one month, per head coach Jeff Blashill. The veteran rearguard was the Red Wings most utilized defenseman last season but still sorely lacks fantasy value. He tallied 33 points, 38 penalty minutes, and a -14 rating through 66 games last season. In […]

Kyle Rudolph Average In Week 4 Loss

Minnesota Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph caught five of his six targets for 57 yards on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams.

Dalvin Cook Held In Check In Week 4

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook only mustered 20 rushing yards on 10 carries in a Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The Vikings said that Cook was on a pitch count after coming back from a hamstring injury which is why he did not see a single carry in the second half. […]

Ken Giles Remains Perfect During Save Opportunities In 2018

Toronto Blue Jays closer Ken Giles exacted some revenge on his old team on Wednesday. Giles only needed five pitches to close out a 3-1 win over the Houston Astros.

Breakout NHL Defensemen You Have To Own In 2018-19

On fantasy hockey draft day, forwards are generally the belle of the ball.

Latavius Murray Should Be Avoided In Week 4

Minnesota Vikings running back Latavius Murray burned a vast amount of fantasy owners in Week 3 after his one-yard clunker against the Buffalo Bills. In Week 4, he still might be the lead back if Dalvin Cook (hamstring) does not play, but he has a far tougher matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams […]

Dalvin Cook A Risky RB Option In Week 4

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) will likely be limited in Week 4 even if he does play.

Cook is still considered questionable for Thursday's outing, and will […]

Stefon Diggs A Top-20 WR Option For Week 4

Billy McKinney Provides Lone Blue Jays Run
