This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Baseball series. After a rainout Monday, the World Series will resume with Game 3 on Tuesday. Starting for the Astros will be Lance McCullers Jr., who has allowed four runs (three earned) over 11 innings this postseason. The Phillies decided to use the rainout to shuffle their starting rotation, and will now deploy Ranger Suarez instead of Noah Syndergaard.

Trevor Lawrence has had 25 NFL starts. Before that, he had 40 starts at Clemson, a big-time college program. That’s plenty of high-level football. A year and a half in the NFL isn’t enough to know exactly what a player is, but it’s a decent look at him. And what we’ve seen from Lawrence isn’t what we thought we’d be seeing when he was as hyped as any prospect over the last 10 years. Lawrence still has time to develop, and the Jacksonville Jaguars will give him as much time as reasonably… Source link

The housing market is in the midst of a major shift as the Federal… Source link

Voters are poised to give President Biden one thumbs-down in the Nov. 8 midterm elections, and maybe two. Democrats seem likely to lose control of the House of Representatives, with maybe 50-50 odds of losing the Senate, as well. The main reason is no secret: Inflation. Gasoline prices have retreated from the peak of $5 per gallon in August, to around $3.75 now. But that’s not good enough. Overall inflation is still 8.2% and food inflation is 13%. Wages are only growing by 4.3%. The typical… Source link

Yahoo Sports’ Matt Harmon and Scott Pianowski explain why the Miami wide receivers are two of the best receiving threats in the NFL. Video Transcript SCOTT PIANOWSKI: Miami, man. I still– look, I still don’t know how good Tua is. I may never know how good Tua is.
