Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Yankees.

[…]

Reese Olson Looks Sharp In No-Decision

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Reese Olson looked good on the mound during Saturday's outing against the Los Angeles Angels.

Pablo Lopez Records Nine Strikeouts

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Pablo Lopez was strong on the mound during Saturday's outing against the Seattle Mariners.

He finished the day […]

Klay Thompson Not Returning To Golden State

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson is reportedly headed to free agency this offseason.

Thompson has been with the Warriors since the beginning of the 2011-2012 season. His shooting percentage saw […]

Precious Achiuwa Heading To Free Agency

New York Knicks forward Precious Achiuwa won't be extended a qualifying offer by the organization. He'll become a free agent after averaging 7.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 1.1 assists in 24.2 minutes per game last season. Achiuwa was a reliable contributor but the Knicks appear to have other options. They've traded for Mikal Bridges and […]

Chimezie Metu Has Optioned Declined

Detroit Pistons forward Chimezie Metu reportedly had his $2.65 million player option declined on Saturday. This seems a little odd, considering how well Metu played during his brief stint in Detroit. He averaged career-highs with 10.9 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game in 14 contests. Perhaps, the Pistons are already overcrowded with big […]

DeAndre Jordan Returning To Denver

Denver Nuggets center DeAndre Jordan is reportedly sticking around with the organization for at least one more season. The veteran big man has reportedly agreed to a one-year, $3.6 million deal for the 2024-2025 season. Jordan should serve as the primary backup center to Nikola Jokic. However, that role usually doesn't come with a ton […]

Royce Lewis Absent On Saturday

Minnesota Twins infielder Royce Lewis is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. This appears to be a routine rest day for the 25-year-old superstar. The oft-injured infielder has been struggling to stay healthy, so it's not surprising to see the Twins giving him extra rest days. Jose Miranda […]

Juan Soto Avoids Serious Injury

New York Yankees outfielder Juan Soto (hand) was scratched from Saturday's lineup after suffering an injury during Friday's game. The 25-year-old injured himself while sliding headfirst at home plate on Friday. The good news is that Soto appears to have avoided a serious injury. Yankees' manager Aaron Boone told reporters that the X-rays on Soto's […]

Luke Raley Returning On Saturday

Seattle Mariners outfielder Luke Raley (shoulder) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Minnesota Twins.

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder George Springer (hand) was removed early during Friday's game against the New York Yankees. Springer was pulled from the contest after getting hit by a pitch on the wrist. He underwent imaging on his hand that came back negative. That is good news but doesn't officially mean Springer will be completely […]

Drew Smith Likely To Undergo Season-Ending Surgery

New York Mets relief pitcher Drew Smith (elbow) is expected to require Tommy John surgery. This is a tough break considering how well Smith has been pitching for the Mets this season. He recently went down with an elbow sprain but it sounds like the issue is more severe. The expectation is Smith wouldn't pitch […]

Steven Matz Transferred To 60-Day Injured List

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Steven Matz (back) has been transferred from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list on Friday. This news comes just two days away from Matz being eligible to come off the injured list. He recently had a setback with a strained back, so it looks like the southpaw is going […]

Josh Jung To Be Brought Along Slowly

Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung (wrist) is having a tough time getting back to full health. The young slugger wants to get back in the lineup, but he's uncertain when that'll be because his wrist isn't 100 percent yet.

A.J. Minter To Throw On Sunday

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher A.J. Minter (hip) is scheduled to throw on the mound for Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday. The left-hander is working his way back from left hip inflammation.

Randy Vasquez Removed Early On Friday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Randy Vasquez (forearm) was forced to exit early during Friday's start against the Boston Red Sox. Vasquez was pitching well before getting hit in the forearm by a line drive. It seemed like Vasquez was fine, but the Padres pulled him from the contest as a precaution. The expectation is […]

Devin Williams To Throw On Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Devin Williams (back) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session on Saturday. The 29-year-old reportedly felt great during his first bullpen session.

Byron Buxton Getting A Day Off

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Seattle Mariners. This appears to be nothing more than a routine rest day for Buxton.

Carlos Correa Back In The Lineup

Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (wrist) has returned to the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Seattle Mariners.
