Dexter Fowler Goes Yard on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Dexter Fowler hit a home run on Thursday, going 1-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI. The blast was Fowler's 15th and came in a critical spot in the seventh inning. He'll take a .251/.348/.433 line into his next start.

Carlos Martinez Saves His 15th Game on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals closer Carlos Martinez closed out his 15th game of the season on Thursday, tossing a scoreless ninth inning. He did allow two walks, but didn't give up a hit, keeping the inning scoreless. He was able to save a 6-5 win for the Cardinals and lowered his ERA to 3.74.

Miles Mikolas Surrenders Five Runs on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas didn't pitch well on Thursday, allowing five runs on eight hits in six innings. He didn't issue a walk but struck out only three. He allowed a home run and threw 92 pitches. Mikolas pitched well for a stretch recently, but he's back to struggling to put together […]

Richard Rodgers Will Miss Several Weeks

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Richard Rodgers will be forced to miss several weeks due to a foot injury. Rodgers is just a depth option behind starters Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert (who will both see plenty of the field thanks to Philly's two-tight end sets.) Rodgers was only going to see consistent playing time if […]

Adam Wainwright Struggles Through Five Innings on Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright struggled on Wednesday, giving up five runs in five innings of work. He allowed eight hits and four walks while only striking out two batters. "Waino" took the loss to even his record at 9-9. He'll take a 4.51 ERA into his next start.

Brad Hand Struggles Again on Wednesday

Cleveland Indians closer Brad Hand struggled on Wednesday against the Mets, taking a loss and a blown save. He got just two outs, allowing two runs on three hits and a walk. He threw 18 pitches, faced six batters, and watched the Mets walk off. It was Hand's fifth blown save and his record dropped […]

Adam Plutko Puts Together a Quality Start on Wednesday

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Adam Plutko worked a quality start on Wednesday but had to settle for a no-decision. Plutko threw six solid innings, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk. He struck out five in the 85-pitch effort. Plutko has been decent enough at eating innings but hasn't inspired enough confidence to […]

Mack Hollins Expected to Make the Roster

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins is expected to make his way onto the team's 53-man roster. Hollins had a brief moment as a dynasty sleeper, but injuries and overall disappointing play have kept him buried on the depth chart so far in his career. Unless several injuries strike the Eagles receivers, Hollins will be […]

Miles Sanders Expected to Take the Top Spot on the Depth Chart

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders is expected to take over the top spot on the running back depth chart soon. The spot currently belongs to Jordan Howard, and although he has reportedly run the ball well, Sanders has been much more dynamic and well-rounded in camp. The rookie will still have competition on […]

Nelson Agholor Expected to Be a "Significant Part" of the Offense

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is expected to be a "significant part" of the offense, according to Jimmy Kempski of Philly Voice. Agholor was reportedly fighting a losing battle to rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside earlier in the preseason, but Agholor has turned it on lately and has been one of the most impressive Eagles players […]

Cody Kessler Returns to Practice

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Cody Kessler (concussion) has resumed practicing. He was the main backup to starter Carson Wentz after Nate Sudfeld (wrist) got hurt, but the Eagles signed Josh McCown after watching their two backups go down. McCown will serve as the primary backup once the season starts, and Kessler's likely only around until Sudfeld […]

Paul DeJong Hits His 22nd Home Run on Monday

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong only got one hit on Monday, but it was a big one, going over the fence for his 22nd home run of the season. DeJong ended up 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored. DeJong has been as streaky as ever this season, and it's all turned into […]

Dakota Hudson Takes a No-Hitter Into the Seventh

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Dakota Hudson took a no-hitter into the seventh inning on Monday. He was removed from the game after 6 2/3 hitless innings, allowing four walks while striking out seven. Hudson didn't get the no-no, but he did earn a win and a quality start, improving his record to 12-6 and […]

Brandon Brooks Still Not Cleared for Team Drills

Philadelphia Eagles starting right guard Brandon Brooks is still recovering from his Achilles' injury and has not yet been cleared for team drills. Brooks will "see how his body responds" to one-on-one drills this week. He remains a possibility for Week 1, but he'll need his injury to respond well to increasing work. Brooks suffered […]

Tony Pollard Leads the Backfield on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Tony Pollard led the backfield in Saturday's preseason game, running the ball five times for 42 yards and a touchdown. He added a nine yard catch as well. Pollard got the most carries and yards and the only touchdown among Cowboys running backs. With Ezekiel Elliott possibly on the sidelines […]

Dak Prescott Completes All Five Passes on Saturday

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott completed all five of his passes in Saturday's preseason game, gaining 64 yards. As expected, Prescott didn't play much but he should get a larger share of at least the first half in the Cowboys dress rehearsal next week. With Ezekiel Elliott far from a sure thing for Week 1, […]

Miles Mikolas Gives Up Five Runs in Five Innings

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas struggled on Saturday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks in five innings of work. He struck out five and allowed two home runs. Mikolas saw his record drop to 7-13 and his ERA rise to 4.30. Opponents are hitting .277 against him, and despite his […]

Zach Plesac Struggles a Bit on Saturday

Cleveland Indians rookie starting pitcher Zach Plesac wasn't sharp on Saturday. He tossed 4 2/3 innings, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and a walk. He struck out five but allowed three home runs. He was somewhat lucky to only allow the four earned runs given the three bombs he allowed, but this […]

Carlos Santana Gets Three Hits and Drives in Three Runs

Cleveland Indians first baseman Carlos Santana got three hits and drove in three runs on Saturday, going 3-for-4 with three singles. He brought his line up to .293/.414/.551. He's been the most consistent member of the Cleveland offense and one of the more consistent players in the American League. He should continue to do more […]

Wendell Smallwood Could Be Left Off the Roster

Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood could be left off the final roster before the season begins. Smallwood set a career high in touches last season, but he was average at best. With the Eagles drafting Miles Sanders and trading for Jordan Howard, Smallwood was pushed down the depth chart and will need to compete […]

Charles Johnson on the Outside Looking In

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Charles Johnson is on the outside looking in for a roster spot in 2019. Johnson excelled in the AAF as part of the Orlando Apollos and looked promising on the Vikings in 2014, but he's already 30 and buried on the depth chart. Behind at least Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson, Nelson […]

Mack Hollins Likely to Play a Depth Role in 2019

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins is likely to play a depth role in 2019 if he makes it on the final roster. Buried on the depth chart behind at least Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson, Nelson Agholor, and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, Hollins will appear on special teams a lot more often than he does on offense. […]

Darren Sproles Should Have a Role on Offense

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles should have a somewhat consistent role in 2019. He'll work on special teams as a returner, but should also see playing time on offense, splitting passing downs with Corey Clement. Sproles and Clement will eat into one another's fantasy value, but either back would be a solid option if […]

Josh Adams on the Roster Bubble

Philadelphia Eagles running back Josh Adams might not make the final Eagles roster this season. Adams led the team in rushing last season after joining the team as an undrafted rookie, but shoulder surgery combined with the additions of Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard have left Adams on the outside looking in. Sanders, Howard, Corey […]

Corey Clement Has Competition in the Backfield

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement could have some competition for passing downs from veteran Darren Sproles. Jordan Howard and rookie Miles Sanders seemed locked into early downs, and Clement and Sproles should handle passing situations. Given their ages, Clement should take the larger role, but Sproles could act as a vulture to Clement's fantasy […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Quickly Gaining Preseason Buzz

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is quickly gaining some preseason buzz, with some reporters thinking he could even be pushing Nelson Agholor for a starting role. The Eagles are reportedly "excited" about their second rounder, and while starters Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson are in no danger of losing playing time, slot receiver […]

Jake Elliott In For Another Solid Season

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott should be primed for another solid season in 2019. He had a good 2018, converting 26-of-31 field goals, but just two of 50 yards or more. He missed two extra points in 35 tries. With an improving offense, Elliott could get more chances this season and should be a solid […]

Nelson Agholor Could Lose His Role on Offense

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor could be in line for a diminished role on offense this season. With Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson atop the receiver depth chart, Agholor will need to hold off rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside to remain in a starting role. Arcega-Whiteside has reportedly been excellent in practice and could take Agholor's […]

Jordan Howard Should Have a Consistent Role in 2019

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard should have a consistent short-yardage role in 2019. While rookie Miles Sanders has taken training camp by storm, Howard has remained solid and will play a significant role on the offense. He and Sanders will share early downs, with Sanders playing more often between the 20-yard lines and Howard […]

DeSean Jackson Should Have Some Huge Games This Season

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson could have some huge games this season. With quarterback Carson Wentz finally having the deep threat Torrey Smith should have been, Jackson could provide the Eagles offense with a new dimension. He won't be a super consistent option, but is an excellent best ball or DFS play, especially against […]
