Texas Rangers starting pitcher Tyler Mahle (shoulder) is dealing with a rotator-cuff strain, according to Rangers' president of baseball operations Chris  Young.

Kevin Porter Jr. Declining Player Option

Milwaukee Bucks guard Kevin Porter Jr. has decided to decline his player option and become an unrestricted free agent.
