With this in mind, we note that the Atlanta Braves are currently the favourite to win the 2024 World Series, but if this is going to happen, the team will need to supplement their amazing offense with a bit more starting pitching.

It wasn’t a bad pick, as he was a beast from downtown for a while, but surprisingly saw less and less action down the stretch after he was traded to the Lakers. Now with Milwaukee, Beasley is starting full-time, his three-point game has never looked better and his overall shooting touch is at a new career-best level. His performance has been much more impressive than expected (he just missed a double-double on Friday), so grab him while you can.

For all of its shortcomings, including a lack of originality, MW3‘s multiplayer… is fun. The tweaks to movement work well once you get the hang of it, and they do breathe a little life into those old maps.

Corum really excels in the gym, so will likely fare very well at the Combine. However, given his injury history, there are questions about his durability and therefore his ability to be a bell-cow type of back. That may hurt him in the draft, so expect Corum to get picked towards the end of the second round.

Landing in Vancouver as the backup didn’t exactly put him in the best position to rebound yet, along with everything Canucks-related, he’s bounced back in a big way so far (despite a rough outing on Thursday). DeSmith is facing less rubber this season, and it’s helping.

Looking at Nix’s performance over the last two games (and in three of the past four) suggests that he’s hitting his stride at the right time to take over as the new Heisman fave. The former Auburn QB has been so much better since arriving in Oregon last season. Another game like he had in Week 11 will have him knocking on the door of his career high in passing yards, set last season.

Despite being used exclusively off the bench so far, Robinson is off to a fine start and will likely see even more responsibility now in the wake of Herro’s injury. When Herro got hurt Wednesday, it was Robinson that subbed in for him, so that was certainly a promising sign and one that makes the most sense given Robinson’s ability to space the floor with his three-point touch like Herro does. Robinson has been a bit inconsistent lately (which isn’t uncommon for him), but if he keeps getting 35 minutes like he did on Wednesday, he’ll provide some major value. His touches are up this season and he’s returned to being a nice source of three-pointers thanks to being a bigger part of the rotation. When Robinson is on, he’s an extremely dangerous shooter, so jump on him while he gets a boost in value for a couple of weeks.
