Adley Rutschman Running, Feeling a Lot Better

Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman (ankle), who is on the 10-day injured list with left-ankle inflammation, is running and going through drills and said he's feeling "a lot better," according to Jake Rill of MLB.com. Rutschman is pleased with how he's progressing, but he also isn't sure how soon he could be back. He's eligible […]


Josh Hader Moved to 60-Day Injured List

The Houston Astros announced on Friday that they transferred left-handed closer Josh Hader (biceps) to the 60-day injured list. The move was made to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Peter Lambert, who was called up from Triple-A Sugar Land to make the start on Friday against the St. Louis Cardinals. The move […]


Jaguars Acquire Ruke Orhorhoro From the Falcons

The Jacksonville Jaguars are acquiring defensive tackle Ruke Orhorhoro from the Atlanta Falcons on Friday in exchange for defensive tackle Maason Smith, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Orhorhoro was a second-round pick (35th overall) by the Falcons in 2024 out of Clemson. The 24-year-old played in just eight games in his rookie season, but […]


Jordyn Tyson Could Come Off the Board as Early as Fifth Overall

ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller thinks that Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) will go much higher in the 2026 NFL draft than most people previously expected. NFL teams are comfortable with Tyson's injury history. Miller believes that he could go off the board as early as No. 5 overall, and that he will […]


Willson Contreras Returns to Red Sox Lineup on Friday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Willson Contreras (back) is starting at first base and is hitting in the two-hole in Friday's series opener against the visiting Detroit Tigers and right-hander Casey Mize at Fenway Park, according to MLB.com.

Chicago Cubs right-handed closer Daniel Palencia (oblique) was placed on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to April 14) on Friday with a left-oblique strain, according to Meghan Montemurro of The Chicago Tribune. It's yet another injury for Chicago's pitching staff, which has been decimated early in the 2026 season. The 26-year-old Palencia has yet to […]


Jacoby Brissett Sitting Out Offseason Workouts, Asking for Extension

Arizona Cardinals veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett is not attending the team's first phase of their offseason program and is asking for a contract extension that would pay him as a starter, sources told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

Texans Agree to Three-Year Extension With Will Anderson Jr.

The Houston Texans and All-Pro edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. agreed to a blockbuster three-year, $150 million contract extension on Friday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network.

Carson Benge Hitting Leadoff on Friday Against Cubs

New York Mets rookie outfielder Carson Benge is starting in right field and is hitting leadoff for Friday's series opener in Chicago at Wrigley Field against the Cubs and right-hander Edward Cabrera, according to MLB.com.

Juan Soto Still on Track to Return Next Week

New York Mets outfielder Juan Soto (calf) is progressing with his baseball activities and is "still on track" to return from the 10-day injured list next week, but the Mets will want to do a supplemental MRI exam to ensure that Soto is OK before activating him, according to Laura Albanese of Newsday. Soto landed […]


Garret Anderson Dies at 53 Years Old

Outfielder Garret Anderson, who is a member of the Los Angeles Angels' Hall of Fame, died at the age of 53 on Friday, according to ESPN. No cause of death was given. Anderson played 15 of his 17 major-league seasons with the Angels after he was drafted by them in the fourth round in 1990. […]


Jorge Polanco Now Dealing With Wrist Issue

New York Mets infielder Jorge Polanco (Achilles, wrist) is in a "better place" with his Achilles bursitis on Friday, but now he's dealing with a right-wrist issue, manager Carlos Mendoza told Max Goodman of NJ.com. The Mets are waiting for MRI results on Polanco's wrist. Although his Achilles bursitis is not considered serious, Polanco could […]


Steelers Not Expected to Take a QB at No. 21 Overall in the Draft

The Pittsburgh Steelers have done their homework on this year's quarterback class, including Alabama signal-caller Ty Simpson, but ESPN's Brooke Pryor doesn't expect them to take a QB at No. 21 overall in the first round next Thursday night. The Steelers "continue to believe" that veteran free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers will return for another season […]


Cade Horton Undergoes Tommy John Surgery

Chicago Cubs right-hander Cade Horton (elbow) had Tommy John surgery on Thursday and will need 15 to 16 months of recovery, according to Taylor McGregor of the Marquee Sports Network. Horton needed a full right-elbow reconstruction. He will miss the rest of the 2026 campaign and most likely the first half of next season as […]


Braydon Fisher to Serve as Opener for Toronto on Friday

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Braydon Fisher will serve as the opener for the team in Friday's series opener against the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet. Left-hander Eric Lauer, not Fisher, is who fantasy managers will want to consider starting in this matchup at Chase Field in Arizona. Fisher, however, has been lights-out […]


Jordyn Tyson's Friday Workout to be Heavily Attended

Eighteen NFL teams are expected to attend Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson's (hamstring) workout on Friday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Tyson, who is projected to be a first-round pick next Thursday night, is holding his own individual workout for teams at Arizona State. The 21-year-old did not run at the scouting combine […]


Chargers Shut Down Trade Rumors Surrounding Quentin Johnston

Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz has shut down trade rumors surrounding wide receiver Quentin Johnston, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN. "There's a lot of rumors out there on Twitter," Hortiz said. "And I can tell you this, I have made zero calls about Quentin, and I've had zero calls regarding Quentin." The […]


Jorge Polanco Remains Out on Friday

New York Mets infielder Jorge Polanco (Achilles) is not ready to rejoin the starting lineup for Friday's series opener at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs, according to MLB.com. Bretty Baty will make the start at first base and is batting eighth, while MJ Melendez is serving as the designated hitter and is batting sixth […]


Ramon Laureano to Stick in Leadoff Spot for Padres

San Diego Padres outfielder Ramon Laureano is the team's leadoff man "until further notice," manager Craig Stammen told AJ Cassavell of MLB.com. The skipper cited Laureano's quality of at-bats wherever he's hit in the lineup so far this season, whether it's first or "seventh, eighth, whatever, when I was dumb, putting him lower in the […]


Kyle Teel to Start Rehab Assignment on Monday

Chicago White Sox catcher Kyle Teel (hamstring) will be with the team in Sacramento for their series against the Athletics and will then report to Triple-A Charlotte to start a minor-league rehab assignment on Monday, per MLB.com. Teel's last recovery component will be running at 100% after he was placed on the 10-day injured list […]


Jackson Holliday to Resume Rehab Assignment This Weekend

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jackson Holliday's (hand, wrist) father, Matt, said on Foul Territory on Friday that his son is fine after he experienced inflammation on the other side of his right wrist recently.

Yesavage got up to 71 pitches this week in his third rehab start while he […]


Jose Berrios Hit Hard in First Rehab Game

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berrios (elbow), who is attempting to pitch through a minor stress fracture in his right elbow, was hit hard in his first minor-league rehab start on Thursday at Single-A Dunedin. Berrios allowed five runs on five hits while walking one and striking out three in 2 2/3 innings. He's a […]


Spencer Strider Goes 3 1/3 Scoreless Innings in Thursday's Rehab Start

Atlanta Braves right-hander Spencer Strider (oblique) made his first minor-league rehab start on Thursday with High-A Rome and gave up just one hit while walking two and striking out three in 3 1/3 shutout innings. Strider looked good, retiring the first eight batters he faced while getting up to 50 total pitches. He began the […]


Martin Perez Called Up to Start on Friday for Braves

The Atlanta Braves selected the contract of veteran left-hander Martin Perez to the major-league roster on Friday, and he will make the start in the series opener against the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. Perez recently elected free agency after he cleared waivers, but the veteran southpaw re-signed with the Braves and will […]


Chris Sale Off to Strong Start in 2026

Atlanta Braves left-hander Chris Sale is off to a strong start in 2026 in his 16th year in the big leagues and his third in Atlanta, going 3-1 with a 3.27 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 22:6 K:BB in 22 innings pitched over his four starts. Sale bounced back nicely in his last appearance on Sunday […]


Aaron Judge Launches Eighth Home Run on Thursday

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Oneil Cruz continued his hot start to the 2026 season by going 2-for-5 with a double, two stolen bases, an RBI, a run scored, and a strikeout in the team's 8-7 extra-inning loss at PNC Park to the Washington Nationals on Thursday. Cruz came into Thursday's game slashing .310/.380/.563 with a .943 […]
