Jose Quintana has pitched better for the New York Mets recently.

The Wire Troll: Jose Quintana Looking Sharp for Mets

His velocity increased dramatically this season giving him a heater capable of touching 97 to pair with a strong changeup and a breaking ball he’s capable of controlling well. Mayfield’s smooth delivery really made him stand out among high school arms available in this draft, so he’s someone worth stashing in leagues that allow you to hold players for a few years.

Jonatan Clase brings elite speed to the Seattle Mariners.

The Wire Troll: Jonatan Clase Gets Another Crack

He teased us with big time pop as a rookie (including a three-homer game) and then built on that last year with 26 jacks while hitting better, but this season has seen huge regression as he’s slugged just .330 through half a season, hitting rock bottom in June (490 OPS). The good news? Suwinski has really turned things around this month with a 913 OPS including a .600 SLG despite a couple of quiet days recently. This is another young outfielder with upside worth a roll of the dice.

Aaron Civale could earn more wins now that he's with the Milwaukee Brewers.

The Wire Troll: Expect More Aaron Civale Wins in Milwaukee

Before taking an 0-fer on Friday, he was riding a nine-game hit streak, with five of those being multi-knock efforts. The thumb woe that Schanuel dealt with a few weeks ago is clearly a thing of the past as he started to deliver on his promise of being an on-base machine last month (.340 OBP in June) and is now piling up solid run and ribbie numbers for the season.

Malachi Nelson has a chance to be the starter for the Boise State Broncos.

College Football Today: 2024 Season Preview

Boise State has come very close to making the College Football Playoffs a couple of times since this format began in 2014, but has settled for nearly annual Bowl game appearances. Unfortunately, after winning double-digit games in 2022, the Broncos took a step back last year, only going 8-6 and losing to UCLA in the LA Bowl, so they’ll be looking to bounce back this season.

Simeon Woods Richardson has pitched very well for the Minnesota Twins.

The Wire Troll: Simeon Woods Richardson Shining in Minny

SWR wasn’t quite as good on Wednesday, but was effective enough to bag another W and has now given up more than three earned runs just once over his last eight starts. A nice winning percentage, ERA and WHIP? What’s not to like? Sure, he’s flopped in a couple of starts, but has generally been a very solid option, and at the age of 23, there’s plenty of upside development potential.
