LEXINGTON, Ky. - After starting Southeastern Conference play with a win over Georgia on Wednesday night, the Kentucky volleyball team made it two in a row by beating Mississippi State 3-1 (25-21, 22-25, 25-14, 26-24) on Sunday afternoon in Memorial Coliseum. The win is the sixth-consecutive overall for the Wildcats.Kentucky (9-4, 2-0 SEC) had 10 service aces in a match for the first time since 2013, with four different Wildcats recording an ace in the match. Sophomore setter Olivia Dailey accounted for four of those aces, while senior Anni Thomasson had three.It (the win) really started with our serving, UK coach Craig Skinner said. We got a lot more aggressive with our serving in that set (third), and it really gave us opportunities to score and get kills in transition. So, our serving pressure was certainly a difference after the break.Freshman Leah Edmond led the Wildcats with 14 kills, while junior Kaz Brown had 12 and sophomore Brooke Morgan added 10, matching her season high. Junior Emily Franklin posted nine and added a team-best five blocks.Dailey had 47 assists in the match, her second-highest total of the season. Dailey added four digs and four block assists in the match as well.Junior Ashley Dusek led the defensive charge for the Wildcats behind a season-best 27 digs. Thomasson added nine, while Edmond chipped in with eight. Sophomore McKenzie Watson contributed five on the afternoon. Kentucky has now limited six-straight opponents to a .162 attacking clip or lower as the Bulldogs managed just a .140 percentage in todays match.The thing that means most to me is we have a level of defense and serving that we can play and aspire to thats pretty high, Skinner said. Mississippi State throws a little bit of lightning speed at you, and youve got to be ready to make plays and anticipate. We responded when they played it to us in game two and Im proud of our players responding when we needed them to.Kentucky returns to action on Wednesday night, when the Wildcats travel to Gainesville, Florida, to face the sixth-ranked Florida Gators. The match is set to begin at 7 p.m. ET and can be seen on the SEC Network.SET RECAPSSet 1Kentucky jumped out to a quick 5-1 lead, with Edmond and Morgan both registering two kills early.

McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford. Cheap Jordan 13 Online .

The World Anti-Doping Agency provisionally suspended the Moscow Antidoping Center on Sunday, saying its operations must improve or a six-month ban on the facilitys accreditation will be imposed. Cheap Air Jordan Retro 13 . On Tuesday, Ottawa placed forward Cory Conacher and defenceman Joe Corvo on waivers as trade rumours swirl around the Senators. Jordan 13 Cheap China . - The Washington Redskins have cut defensive lineman Adam Carriker and punter Sav Rocca. Its Thursday, which means another abbreviated and ugly slate, right? Wrong. Thursdays slate is a breath of fresh air. While only nine games are on the schedule, those nine contests are ripe with options. In addition to three hurlers garnering elite status, there are plenty of big names - Johnny Cueto, Cole Hamels and David Price, to name a few - and a number of others filling up the middle tier as well. Thursdays like this dont come along very often, so enjoy it while it lasts.PitchingEliteJose Fernandez comes in behind Jacob deGrom in terms of Game Score, but hes still the days top option in my book. The right-hander leads baseball with a 13.1 K/9, which includes seven double-digit K games, and hes allowed more than two runs just twice in his last 13 outings. He faces a stiff test with a home matchup against the Cardinals, who sport an NL-best 114 wRC+ versus right-handed pitching this season and have scored the third-most runs in baseball. Then again, no other hurler on the days slate can match Fernandezs floor and ceiling. Hes not a must-play given the other options available, but investing in Fernandez is always money well spent.In terms of matchup, deGrom finds himself in a more appealing spot with a home tilt against the Rockies. The Rox lineups is largely sapped of its powers away from Coors Field, as they sport a .294 road wOBA this season that ranks second-worst in baseball along with a 24 percent strikeout rate. While he doesnt have Fernandezs strikeout upside (who does?) and is whiffing less than a batter per inning, its worth noting that hes posted a 10.3 K/9 over his last 11 starts. Fading Fernandez is always tough, but deGrom carries plenty of cash-game appeal.Third in the elite-tier pecking order is Chris Sale, who returns to the mound after his five-game suspension for a clubhouse incident that involved cutting up some throwback uniforms. If theres a time to fade the White Sox lefty, this might be it. For one, the Cubs mash left-handed pitching, as they sport a 118 wRC+ versus southpaws that ranks second-best in baseball. Secondly, hes actually been a suspect cash option of late, having allowed five or more runs in three of his last seven starts. Finally, Sales ceiling isnt what it once was now that hes pitching more to contact. I like Sale as a potential contrarian play in tournaments, but Im looking elsewhere in cash.SolidJohnny Cueto is rock-solid when it comes to cash games. Hes been terrific both at home (2.43 ERA) and on the road (2.63 ERA), and hes held an ERA of 3.00 or lower in each month this season. The Nationals may be one of the best team in the National League, but theyve been below average versus righties (93 wRC+) and havent put up much offense in the second half (84 wRC+). The Giants right-hander is definitely in play on Thursday.If youre not paying up for one of the elite, investing in Julio Teheran makes a lot of sense. Since the beginning of May, Teheran holds a 2.15 ERA and 0.84 WHIP with an 8.1 K/9. Better yet, hes matching up against a Phillies offense that cant hit right-handed pitching (82 wRC+) and has been absolutely brutal since the All-Star break, sporting a 62 wRC+ and 25 percent whiff rate.Cole Hamels draws a home start against Kansas City. The Royals are tough to strike out and are tougher on left-handed pitching than righties. That said, Hamels is getting them at the right time, as theyve been striking out at a 22 percent clip in July with a 77 wRC+ that ranks worst in the American League. Outside of a pair of rough starts against the Twins in early July, the Texas lefty has allowed one or zero runs in his other six outings dating back to June 12.Once one of the most stable options in DFS, John Lackey has stumbled a bit of late.dddddddddddd Over his last six outings, hes been battered for a 6.38 ERA and 1.42 WHIP. So he cant be recommended for cash right now. That said, Lackey has been much better at Wrigley Field this year (2.84 ERA) than hes been on the road (4.68 ERA), and the White Sox can be exploited by right-handed pitching (87 wRC+), giving him some GPP appeal.The Angels may sit dead-last in the AL West, but their offense has been stinging the ball lately. In addition to sporting a 121 wRC+ so far in July, the Angels have posted a 113 wRC+ versus lefty pitching this season. That puts David Price in a tough spot. The lefty hasnt proven to be a safe cash-game commodity this season, and the Angels dont strike out enough to make him a great GPP play despite his K/9 rate of 9.6.StreamersRobbie Ray certainly has his limitations, but he also brings nice upside when the matchup is right. Such is the case on Thursday, when Ray lines up against a Brewers team that whiffs at a 24 percent clip versus lefties. For his part, Ray is whiffing 10.9 batters per nine, which ranks top-five in baseball. The southpaw makes for a fine GPP option and has some streaming appeal if you need strikeouts. Hes available in 87 percent of ESPN.com leagues.Zach Davies has quietly put up some pretty good numbers. Since June 1, the right-hander has posted a 2.35 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 8.0 K/9. Against an Arizona team thats below average against righties (89 wRC+) and strikes out at a healthy 23 percent clip, theres definitely some streaming value here. His ESPN.com ownership sits at just 33 percent.AvoidAaron Nola has hit a rough patch. Dating back to his June 11 start against Washington, the righty is 0-7 with a 10.61 ERA and 2.04 WHIP in seven starts. In those seven starts, he allowed five or more runs five times. A matchup against the Braves, which own the worst offense in baseball against right-handed pitching (75 wRC+), creates a glimmer of hope for DFS players. Even so, the cake matchup isnt enough for me to trust the Phillies right-hander on Thursday.HittingIts been a rough season for Jered Weaver, who owns a 5.32 ERA and has been hit hard by both right- (.375 wOBA) and left-handed hitters (.350 wOBA). It just so happens that the Red Sox, the best offense in baseball against right-handed pitching, are coming to town. Theyll be pricey, but this is a great stacking opportunity.Left-handed Baltimore bats should be on the radar against Kyle Gibson, one of the weakest pitchers on the slate. Chris Davis is the obvious play here, though Pedro Alvarez, switch-hitter Matt Wieters and Hyun Soo Kim, whos batting .355 versus right-handed pitching, are in the mix as well.With Ubaldo Jimenez taking the mound for the Orioles on Thursday, its a good time to load on Twins bats. Jimenez has been abysmal this season, posting 7.38 ERA in 18 games and 5.5 BB/9. Left-handed bats in particular have tattooed him for a .425 wOBA.We already highlighted Robbie Ray as a high-upside streaming option, but the fact remains that right-handed hitters have hit him pretty well in his career and Miller Park inflates power for right-handers. Jonathan Villar, Ryan Braun, Jonathan Lucroy and Chris Carter are all in play here.Most likely to go yard: David OrtizLets go with Ortiz, who has hit 21 of his 24 homers this season off righties and is facing a pitcher (Weaver) who has had homer issues.Most likely to swipe a bag: Mookie BettsWell double-up on Boston hitters, who draw a perfect 10 steals rating against Weaver. Betts it he most likely wreak havoc on the basepaths in this one.
