Nick Pivetta Starting Game 1 of Wild-Card Series

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Nick Pivetta will start Game 1 of the wild-card series on Tuesday against the Cubs, reports AJ Cassavell of MLB.com. This is no surprise, as he has been the Padres' clear ace in 2025, posting a 2.87 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, 190 strikeouts, and 50 walks in 181 ⅔ innings. The […]


Pete Alonso to Opt Out of Contract and Enter Free Agency

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso may no longer be a Met, as he plans to opt out of his contract and enter free agency, reports Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. He signed a two-year deal for $54 million prior to the season, but he is ultimately choosing to opt out of his $24 million […]


Clayton Kershaw Not Available for Wild-Card Series

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Clayton Kershaw will not be available for the wild card series, reports David Vassegh of SportsNet LA.

Bo Bichette Without a Timeline, Unlikely to Return in Postseason?

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette (knee) is still doing some light hitting and throwing, but he doesn't have a clear timeline past that, reports Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. It's hard to know how far he is into recovery until he starts running, as that is the major test for the left knee sprain that […]


Corey Seager Does Light Jogging

Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (abdomen) did some light jogging on the field on Monday, reports Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com. He has been out since August 27 after being diagnosed with appendicitis and undergoing an appendectomy. Bruce Bochy stated that the 31-year-old was still pretty sore, but that soreness figures to be the only thing […]


Connor Norby Activated from Injured List

Miami Marlins third baseman Connor Norby (quadriceps) was activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. He only needed to miss the minimum number of days with his quad strain, and he'll step back in as the team's primary third baseman.
