Marcus Stroman Not Throwing Yet

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Marcus Stroman (shoulder) has not resumed throwing yet. He landed on the injured list due to shoulder inflammation on June 10.

Aroldis Chapman Could Share Saves With Clay Holmes

New York Yankees relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman (Achilles) might not be the full-time closer when he returns from the injured list.

Washington Nationals outfielder Juan Soto (knee) remains out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves.

Jack Conklin Not At Minicamp

Cleveland Browns tackle Jack Conklin (knee) is not participating in minicamp, which shouldn't come as a surprise.

There's a chance that Conklin isn't […]

Lamar Jackson Is In Attendance At Minicamp

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has joined the team in minicamp. Last week, head coach John Harbaugh mentioned that he expected Jackson at minicamp despite him missing OTA workouts. The 25-year-old still remains without an extension, but the team insists that a deal will get done. It's possible that the Ravens use multiple franchise tags […]

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's Game 5 against the Golden State Warriors. He mentioned on Sunday that he has been feeling better lately.

He'll carry […]

Matt Carpenter Knocks In Seven Runs

New York Yankees third baseman Matt Carpenter put together an unbelievable performance against the Chicago Cubs on Sunday. The 36-year-old went 3-for-4 with two homers and seven RBI in the 18-4 win.

Nathan Eovaldi Lands On 15-Day Injured List

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (back) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive June 9. The expectation was that Eovaldi would be able to make a start this week.

Michael Kopech Removed Due To Injury

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Michael Kopech (knee) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Texas Rangers. He was pulled after 12 pitches due to an apparent knee issue.
