Jacksonville Jaguars rookie defensive end Josh Allen (knee), who missed most of organized team activities with a knee bruise, is unlikely to take part in minicamp next week, according to head coach Doug Marrone. “I’ll probably just as safety hold him until he’s ready for camp,” Marrone said. “Technically he could be ready to go […]

Tyreek Hill Expected To Join Team For Training Camp

Barring further developments, there's reason to believe that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill will be back with the team for training camp this summer. Police are no longer pursuing criminal charges against Hill, who was under investigation for alleged child abuse against his three-year-old son. Hill has been banned from the team's offseason […]

Ryon Healy Suffers Setback

Seattle Mariners third baseman Ryon Healy (back) suffered a setback with his back and has been slowed in his return. Healy has been out since May 20 and might just be more of a bench bat when he returns now that Kyle Seager is starting every day at third base. Healy was hitting a weak […]

Dee Gordon Starting Rehab Assignment, J.P. Crawford Behind

Seattle Mariners second baseman Dee Gordon (wrist) will be starting his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma on Friday and could rejoin the team early next week. Meanwhile, shortstop J.P.

Seattle Mariners outfielders Mitch Haniger (testicle) and Braden Bishop (spleen) both had surgery on Friday and are out indefinitely.

Mike Clevinger Hit Hard In Rehab Start

Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Mike Clevinger (back) allowed four earned runs on three hits while walking two and striking out four in just two innings in his rehab start with Triple-A Columbus on Thursday.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that outfielder Giancarlo Stanton (calf) is "close" to a rehab assignment, but there is no date yet.

Masahiro Tanaka May Miss Sunday Start

With New York Yankees starting pitcher Masahiro Tanaka back in New York for the birth of his child, he may be forced to miss his start on Sunday on the road against the Indians.

No Baseball Activities For Steve Pearce

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez (back), who left the game early with back spasms on Thursday, is being listed as day-to-day. Manager Alex Cora said Martinez is feeling better and hopes to return on Saturday. The injury may limit how much the team uses him in the outfield moving forward. Eduardo Nunez is serving […]

Padres Could Keep Josh Naylor Over Manuel Margot

The San Diego Padres are considering keeping outfielder Josh Naylor on the big league roster over Manuel Margot once Franchy Cordero (elbow) returns from the injured list.
