The Rockies’ power problem persists despite catcher Hunter Goodman’s career‑high 41 homers in 2026, which tied for sixth in MLB and the NL’s third‑best total. Colorado still ranked 19th in team home runs, with the next‑best slugger, Mickey Moniak, at 23. The article argues Colorado should chase a prolific free‑agent DH this off‑season, citing the success of DHs like Kyle Schwarber (45 HR) and Jordan Alvarez (42 HR) in 2026, and noting the Rockies produced only 22 DH homers last year. Adding a dedicated power bat could finally revive the long‑lived “Blake Street Bombers” legacy.

Giants' Devin Singletary snapped a 41‑yard, one‑TD effort on just five carries and could see more work if injuries persist, and Houston's Woody Marks logged 19 carries despite modest output, offering volume for deeper leagues.

Detroit’s captain Dylan Larkin refuses to widen his trade wish list, insisting the Red Wings deal only with the ten teams he named. After the club suspended him without pay in late October, Larkin’s camp told management to work within his approved destinations, which include the Carolina Hurricanes, Colorado Avalanche, Dallas Stars, Florida Panthers, Minnesota Wild, New Jersey Devils, Tampa Bay Lightning, Utah Mammoth, Vegas Golden Knights and Washington Capitals. The stalemate fuels speculation about his future after 12 years in Detroit, as the team navigates the dispute amid the regular season.
For NFL Week 9 fantasy managers needing a quarterback streamer, ClutchPoints highlights four options. Jordan Love (GB vs. NE) follows a strong stretch with 30‑41, 288 yards, 3 TDs and just one interception, offering QB1 upside if he curbs turnovers. Bo Nix (DEN vs. CAR) posted 20‑32, 222 yards and 2 TDs without a pick in Week 8 and has four consecutive TD passes, making him a solid pick. Matthew Stafford (LAR vs. WAS) shows experience but limited yardage (157 yards, 1 TD) and faces the loss of Davante Adams, so he’s a deeper‑league fallback. Tyler Shough (NO vs. CLE) delivered 30‑38, 278 yards and high accuracy in Week 7 but lacks TD volume, fitting two‑QB or deeper formats. Love and Nix emerge as the top streaming candidates.

After an 0‑3 start, Stephen Curry says head coach Steve Kerr’s “stick with the process” talk sparked Golden State’s turnaround.

The fifth‑round pick, praised for his work ethic and mental toughness, earned high praise despite Bieniemy’s usual dislike of Cornhuskers. With Kansas City on a two‑game losing streak and needing a spark, Johnson could see more touches as the Chiefs face the New York Jets in Week 9.
