Tyreek Hill Questionable For Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (heel, wrist) is listed as questionable for Week 15 against the Chargers on Thursday night. Hill was limited the last two days, so he's on track to return in a big divisional game against the Bolts. With running back Spencer Ware (hamstring, shoulder) doubtful to play, expect the […]

Matt Breida Returns To Limited Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after sitting out in Week 14. Breida is on track for a return in Week 15 against the Seahawks, but the Niners could easily decide to limit him with nothing really on the line for their season. We could be […]

Spencer Ware Doubtful To Face Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring, shoulder) is doubtful to play on Thursday night against the Chargers. In perhaps one of the biggest games of the year for both teams, they could both be down to their third-string running backs. Damien Williams is in line to see the majority of touches in what […]

Melvin Gordon Questionable, Austin Ekeler Out

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon (knee) is questionable for Thursday night against the Chiefs, while Austin Ekeler (concussion, neck) has been ruled out. Gordon returned to practice on Tuesday but will be a game-time decision. If he suits up, he will be at less than 100 percent and in danger of having his […]

Reds Discussing Sonny Gray, Marcus Stroman

The Cincinnati Reds remain active in trade discussions for New York Yankees starting pitcher Sonny Gray and Toronto Blue Jays starter Marcus Stroman, according to sources. The Reds think there's a better chance of acquiring them than Cleveland Indians ace Corey Kluber. Gray and Stroman both had down seasons in 2018 but have the ability […]

David Johnson Expected To Play

Arizona Cardinals head coach Steve Wilks said that running back David Johnson (quadriceps) is expected to play in Week 15 against the Falcons despite missing practice on Wednesday. The Falcons allow a lot of receptions and points to running backs, so Johnson has an opportunity to help fantasy owners in the semifinals this weekend. However, […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Officially Limited Wednesday

Updating a previous report, New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) was officially limited in practice on Wednesday, taking part in individual drills during the portion of practice open to the media. While OBJ was a surprise last-minute inactive in Week 14, he should be on track to return against the Titans in […]

Ryan Tannehill Expected To Face Vikings

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is expected to start in Week 15 against the Vikings "unless something crazy happens." He left the game briefly in the miracle Week 14 win over the Patriots and will be limited in practice this week. Head coach Adam Gase said that Tannehill looked "good" in practice and moved […]

Elijah McGuire, Trenton Cannon Return To Practice

New York Jets running backs Elijah McGuire (ankle) and Trenton Cannon (toe) returned to a limited practice on Wednesday after sitting out on Tuesday. It puts both on track to play on Saturday against the Texans. It's important with Isaiah Crowell (toe) seemingly unlikely to suit up this weekend. McGuire is a candidate for a […]

Isaiah Crowell Out Again Wednesday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell (toe) remained out of practice for the second straight day on Wednesday. Crowell was seen wearing a walking boot on Tuesday and seems unlikely to play on Saturday against the Texans. Don't plan on using him in the fantasy semifinals. Elijah McGuire and Trenton Cannon should split the […]

DeSean Jackson Still Not Practicing

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson (thumb) remains out of practice on Wednesday. D-Jax hasn't played in two weeks and looks unlikely to face the Ravens in Week 15. There's still a chance the Bucs hold him out the rest of the year with nothing on the line, but Jackson remains optimistic that he […]

A's Talking About Jurickson Profar

The Oakland Athletics are among the teams talking to the Texas Rangers about a trade for infielder Jurickson Profar, according to sources. Profar would be an option to play the keystone if free-agent second baseman Jed Lowrie signs elsewhere on the open market. Franklin Barreto is also an internal possibility. Profar was a post-hype breakout […]

Mets Meet With Adam Jones

The New York Mets met with free-agent outfielder Adam Jones in Las Vegas at the winter meetings. Jones can still be a valuable veteran right-handed outfield bat for a club in need, but he's 33 years old and is no longer the stud offensive weapon he used to be in his prime with Baltimore. Jones […]

Jordy Mercer Joining Tigers

The Detroit Tigers have agreed to an undisclosed deal with free-agent shortstop Jordy Mercer. Detroit will replace the glove-first Jose Iglesias with another defensive-minded player in Mercer, who turned 32 in August. He hit just .251/.315/.381 with six home runs and 39 RBI in 394 at-bats for the Pirates this year and has virtually no […]

Braves Considering A.J. Pollock

The Atlanta Braves could make an offer to free-agent outfielder A.J. Pollock. Atlanta already has Ender Inciarte lined up as their starter in center field, but they could opt to trade him if they ended up signing Pollock. Pollock has had trouble staying healthy in his career, but he has a very attractive power/speed combination […]

Jordan Reed, Josh Doctson Not Practicing

Washington Redskins tight end Jordan Reed (toe) and wide receiver Josh Doctson (concussion) are not practicing on Wednesday. With Washington's season crumbling due to a plethora of injuries to key players, it's no lock that they rush either Reed or Doctson back onto the field for Week 15 against the Jaguars. Reed remained healthy for […]

Derek Holland Wants To Stay In National League

Free-agent starting pitcher Derek Holland's preference is to re-sign with the San Francisco Giants or at least stay in the National League. The 32-year-old southpaw had a bounce-back year with San Fran in 2018, going 7-9 with a 3.57 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 169 K's in 171 1/3 innings across 36 outings (30 starts). The […]

J.P. Crawford May Start In Minors

The Seattle Mariners don't want to rush shortstop J.P. Crawford at the start of next season after they recently acquired him from the Phillies. The Mariners are seeking a veteran shortstop on the free-agent market that would allow Crawford more time to develop in the minors to start next season. Alcides Escobar is a potential […]

Yankees Meet With Adam Ottavino

New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman met with the representatives for free-agent Adam Ottavino on Tuesday night, according to sources. No offers were exchanged, but it's clear that the reliever is high on the Yankees wish list. Ottavino would likely be the setup man to Aroldis Chapman in the Bronx, so the right-hander's fantasy […]

Mets, Red Sox Interested In Adam Ottavino

The Mets and Red Sox are showing continued interest in free-agent relief pitcher Adam Ottavino, according to sources. While Ottavino would just be a setup man for Edwin Diaz in New York, he could definitely serve as the ninth-inning man in Boston, which would seriously boost his fantasy appeal. Ottavino was great in 2018, posting […]

Rangers Have Strong Interest In Charlie Morton

The Texas Rangers have strong interest in free-agent starting pitcher Charlie Morton, who spent the last two years with the Astros. The veteran right-hander had a breakout in 2018, going 15-3 with a 3.13 ERA and 201 strikeouts in 30 starts over 167 innings. However, he's 35 years old and had arm issues to close […]

Diamondbacks Not Targeting Jackie Bradley Jr.

Sources with knowledge of the situation say that the Arizona Diamondbacks are not targeting Boston Red Sox outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. as a replacement for free-agent center fielder A.J. Pollock. Bradley is a similar player to Pollock defensively, but he doesn't have the upside with the bat that Pollock does. Either way, the Red Sox […]

Teams Showing Interest In Ian Kinsler

The Tigers, Brewers, Athletics and Nationals are among the teams interested in free-agent second baseman Ian Kinsler. However, the destinations of free-agent second basemen DJ LeMahieu and Jed Lowrie may ultimately decide where Kinsler lands. Kinsler isn't the player he once was and isn't a great fit at the top of a lineup anymore, but […]

Dodgers Discussing Jose Martinez

The Los Angeles Dodgers are discussing a possible trade for St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Jose Martinez, according to sources. Martinez could play first base, which would move Max Muncy to second base and Cody Bellinger to the outfield. Martinez can hit (.305/.364/.457 with 17 homers, 83 RBI), but he's bad on defense and is […]

Yankees Close To Re-Signing J.A. Happ

The New York Yankees are close to re-signing starting pitcher J.A. Happ. Happ is 36 years old but was very effective for the Yanks after the acquired him from the Blue Jays at the trade deadline in 2018. The left-hander had 17 wins and posted a 2.69 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 8.9 K/9 in 11 […]

Brewers Avoid Arbitration With Jimmy Nelson

The Milwaukee Brewers avoided salary arbitration with starting pitcher Jimmy Nelson on Wednesday by agreeing to a one-year, $3.7 million deal, according to sources. Nelson didn't pitch at all in 2018 due to injury, but he was 12-6 with a nice 3.49 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and career-high 10.2 K/9 for Milwaukee in 2017, and he […]

LeSean McCoy, Steven Hauschka Won't Practice Wednesday

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (hamstring) and kicker Steven Hauschka (hip) will not practice on Wednesday. McCoy injured his hammy early in the Week 14 game and barely put up any numbers as a result. It seems unlikely that he'll play in Week 15 against the Lions, but his practice participation the rest of […]

Lamar Jackson To Start Over Joe Flacco

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said that rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson will start in Week 15 against the Buccaneers, while Joe Flacco (hip) will return and back the rookie up. Flacco hasn't played since Nov. 4 and was already playing poorly before his injury. Jackson has gone 3-1 in his four starts and although […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Won't Practice Wednesday

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said that wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (quadriceps) will not practice on Wednesday. "We'll try and get him back as quickly as possible. He is feeling better each day. I don't think he is going to practice today but we'll see as the week progresses," Shurmur said. There's […]

Albert Pujols Cleared For Lower-Body Workouts

Los Angeles Angels first baseman Albert Pujols (elbow, knee) has been cleared for light lower-body workouts after his season-ending knee surgery, according to general manager Billy Eppler. Pujols is also already doing full upper-body work after having right elbow surgery in 2018. The Machine is not aging gracefully and seems to have at least one […]
