More drops: Mariners SP Roenis Elias, Cubs UT Emilio Bonifacio, Indians SP Josh Tomlin, Blue Jays 1B/3B Juan Francisco. Hot pickup: Danny Santana, Twins. Charlie Morton is actually the top pickup in Yahoo! fantasy leagues, but I’m not going to write about him because he sucks. Instead, let’s talk about someone who doesn’t suck, at least right now: Danny “Smooth” Santana (nickname pending approval). D-Smooth (catchy, right?) is working on a seven-game hit streak and is batting ....

Fantasy Basketball NBA Injury Roundup Steph Curry, G, Warriors (left shoulder): 3-4 weeks The most newsworthy NBA injury of them all, of course, came out of Indiana on Wednesday when Curry suffered a left shoulder subluxation and immediately ran off the floor in obvious distress. After an MRI the next day, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN ultimately confirmed that the reigning Finals MVP will be sidelined for multiple weeks. This obviously serves as a crippling blow to a Golden State squad that had already stumbled out of the gate this season and faced myriad health issues up and down its roster....

Since then, she has had a mixed tag team match at WrestleMania 34, teaming with WWE Hall of Fame Inductee and Raw General Manager Kurt Angle, beating Triple H and Stephanie McMahon in an incredible match. She had another outstanding match at Money In The Bank against Nia Jax for the Raw Women’s Championship. After cashing in her MITB contract and becoming Raw Women’s Champion for the third time, Alexa Bliss created a major target on her back, lead to a suspension for Ronda Rousey of thirty days due to her attacks to Bliss, Angle and WWE Officials on the Raw after MITB....

GK: David De Gea - Manchester United - 1 Game, 5 Saves, 1 Clean Sheet = 9 Points DF: Isaac Hayden - Newcastle - 1 Game, 1 Goal, 2 Goals Conceded = 7 Points Hayden was definitely the biggest surprise package this week, popping up with a wonderful goal against Southampton. He is currently playing in the midfield next to Jonjo Shelvey and, as such, could have extra value as a defender playing further up the pitch....

GK: Heurelho Gomes – Watford – 1 Game, 4 Saves, 1 Clean Sheet = 9 Points DF: Vincent Kompany – Manchester City – 1 Game, 1 Goal, 1 Clean Sheet = 14 Points After dealing with injuries all season (again) the City captain put in not only one of the best real life performances of the week but the best fantasy week with 14 points. It is hard to trust him as an asset due to the injury history but there’s no doubting that when he plays, Kompany is one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League....

With a new quarterback under center in rookie Mike Glennon , Martin turned in arguably the worst performance of his young career on Sunday against Arizona. He rushed 27 times for just 45 yards – an average of 1.7 yards per carry – caught three passes for 17 yards and lost a fumble. As a result, Martin owners are justifiably freaking out heading into the Bucs’ bye and you can bet Martin will be involved in several desperate trades in the coming weeks....

The hopes for an Overwatch series are nothing new, as the franchise’s stunning animated shorts have shown what a series could accomplish. Further, the incredible success of Arcane has shown how useful television can be for fleshing out the backstories of characters in multiplayer-focused games. With so much potential, it would not be too surprising if an Overwatch series was created one day, though most would expect it to be animated....

The baseball that Royals shortstop Alcides Escobar hit for an inside-the-park home run in the bottom of the first inning in Game 1 of the World Series was auctioned off for $19,200 on Wednesday. The ball fielded 84 bids in eight days, according to ESPN.com. MORE: Photos from the Royals parade | The plays that propelled KC Escobar’s inside-the-park home run was the first in a World Series game since Mule Haas of the Philadelphia A’s did it in 1929....

With a loaded slate at RB, we had a lot to choose from, but we still felt the need to spend up at the position. To do this, we spent down at WR and TE while grabbing two true bell-cows as our backs. We supplemented that with a great defense pick and a matchup-based QB-WR stack that should pan out. This is different than the strategy we have gone with in recent weeks, but the excellent running backs we were able to grab should give us a chance to get in the money....

Reeves has partnered up with children’s cancer charity Camp Rainbow Gold to help with the organization’s fundraising efforts, which have had to go online because of COVID-19. In an auction open now until June 22, fans will be able to bid for a 15-minute Zoom session with the actor, with Reeves answering questions. CD Projekt RED, the developer of Cyberpunk 2077, which Reeves also stars in, has created some The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Zoom backgrounds, so perhaps the winner of the prize could use this during their meeting....

The New York Islanders winger is tied for ninth in the NHL 42 points (16 goals, 26 assists). He got there by scoring an overtime winner against the Chicago Blackhawks. Not bad. Even better — fans at Nassau Coliseum chanted "U-S-A" after he did it. That starts at about 2:40 of this video. And then this from John Tavares: On Wednesday, Poile and the rest of Team USA didn't pick Okposo largely over, according to Scott Burnside's all-access piece on the selection process, concerns about his ability to play on the international ice surface....

Rooney completes Everton move The Toffees announced the news on Sunday with a slick teaser video on Twitter, accompanied by the words: “Once a Blue… #WelcomeHomeWayne.” And the football world has been reacting to the news, with some less than complementary offerings on social media from various rival supporters! There were, however, those that wanted to pay tribute to Rooney and his career, with plenty of Everton fans looking forward to seeing him play for their club once again…

That's everybody's draft-day sleeper heading into 2014. The guy Tanaka is throwing to, however, might be the better value pick in 2014. Brian McCann signed a five-year, $85 million deal with the Yankees this offseason. That might seem like a lot for a 30 year old catcher, but New York knows what they are getting here. That's a 20-homer catcher. McCann has at least 20 home runs six straight seasons, and seven of the last eight....

There have been some this season that have suggested that a back four strategy could be the best option this year with so many strikers struggling and this week will likely push many people into trying a 4-4-2 or 4-5-1 in coming weeks. There is no rush to chop and change your team though, as the next league match will not take place until January 30th so, in the interim, take a deep breath and look over our latest Goal Fantasy Team of the Week....

Do you roll with the Tide, or rock with the Hurricane? Here’s breaking down who to endorse more as a RB2: MORE: RB rankings | RB sleepers | Draft prep It took four seasons for Ingram to finally start looking like a worthy late first-round pick, and after some injuries cleared out the Saints’ committee, Ingram functioned as a workhorse in stretches.

And although the eShop can provide a variety of services for Nintendo Switch owners, it has always lacked one key component: reviews. For one reason or another, Switch owners have never had the ability to rate and/or review games on the eShop, but one fan has now made their own website allowing users to rate and review Nintendo Switch games in one place.
