Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Andrew Heaney (shoulder) will likely return from the injured list to start on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals, according to skipper Dave Roberts. The Dodgers play on 18 consecutive days to open the second half of the season, so they will go with a six-man starting rotation during that stretch. Heaney, […]

MLB, Players Union Can't Agree On International Draft

The MLB Players Association rejected the league's latest proposal on an international draft on Monday, which means the free-agent qualifying offer system that has been a drag on some free agents, will remain in place.

The New York Giants worked out a group that included free-agent tight end Eric Ebron on Monday.

With Baltimore Ravens running backs J.K. Dobbins (knee) and Gus Edwards (knee) opening training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, the team signed free-agent running back Corey Clement to an undisclosed deal, according to a source.

Roquan Smith Set For Holdout

Chicago Bears All-Pro linebacker Roquan Smith will not be participating in training camp when veterans are scheduled to report on Tuesday, according to sources.

Steelers Release Trey Edmunds

The Pittsburgh Steelers released running back/fullback Trey Edmunds on Monday, according to a source. In his four seasons with Pittsburgh, Edmunds only had 22 carries for 92 yards and caught six of seven targets for 48 yards in 21 games, so he obviously wasn't a big part of their offense at all.

Joshua Palmer Expected To Become No. 3 Receiver

The Athletic's Daniel Popper expects Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer to distance himself as the clear No. 3 receiver during training camp, behind Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

Julian Blackmon Ready For Training Camp

The Indianapolis Colts didn't place an injury designation on safety Julian Blackmon (Achilles) to begin training camp, which is an excellent sign after coming off a torn Achilles last year.
