Quentin Johnston Looking To Turn Things Around

Los Angeles Chargers former first-round wide receiver Quentin Johnston had a pretty dreadful first season in the NFL and was plagued by some key drops, ultimately finishing with 38 catches for 431 yards and two touchdowns despite both Mike Williams and Keenan Allen missing time with injuries. In addition to drops, the 6-foot-4, 215-pounder was […]

Free-agent cornerback Cameron Sutton is signing an undisclosed deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Wednesday, according to his agents.

Trevon Diggs "Looks Great"

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy said that cornerback Trevon Diggs (knee) "looks great" this offseason in his return from a torn ACL that he suffered last September. There seems to be a real chance that Diggs will start training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list, but "he's in a good spot." The […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Missing Practice With Soft-Tissue Injury

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs (undisclosed) was held out of practice on Wednesday as he deals with a soft-tissue injury, according to head coach Dan Campbell. It's something to watch, but this early in the offseason, it shouldn't be too much of a concern for Gibbs or the Lions. If it's still something that […]

Robbie Ray Fans Three In First Rehab Appearance

San Francisco Giants left-hander Robbie Ray (elbow), who is making his way back from Tommy John surgery last May, struck out three batters in a scoreless inning of work on Tuesday in the Arizona Complex League in his first minor-league rehab outing.

Aaron Ashby Called Up And Starting On Wednesday

The Milwaukee Brewers called up left-hander Aaron Ashby from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday to make the start on the road against the Phillies in Philadelphia. We aren't recommending Ashby as a fantasy streamer on the road against one of the best offenses in baseball, but the 26-year-old southpaw is worth considering as a waiver-wire pickup […]

Robert Gasser Placed On 15-Day Injured List

The Milwaukee Brewers placed left-handed rookie Robert Gasser (elbow) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to June 2) with a left flexor strain. The Brewers added left-hander Andy Ashby and right-hander Tobias Myers from Triple-A Nashville and optioned right-hander Janson Junk to Nashville.

Colorado Rockies first baseman/designated hitter Kris Bryant (back) remains on the bench for the team's game on Wednesday against the visiting Cincinnati Reds.

Masyn Winn Retreats To The Bench

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn (back) is getting a day off in the series finale on Wednesday against the hosting Houston Astros.

Houston Astros right-hander Jose Urquidy (elbow) will undergo season-ending elbow surgery on Wednesday, the team announced. The Astros didn't specify the exact nature of Urquidy's surgery, but he will not pitch again in 2024.

Alex Bregman Playing Against Cardinals

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hand) is at third base and is batting in the two-hole for the series finale on Wednesday against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals and right-hander Miles Mikolas. Bregman had an injury scare in Tuesday's win over St. Louis when he was hit by a pitch on his left hand, […]

Kyle Tucker Remains Out On Wednesday

Houston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker (shin) remains out of the starting lineup on Wednesday against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals.

The Boston Red Sox reinstated outfielder Tyler O'Neill (knee) from the 10-day injured list on Wednesday and optioned catcher Tyler Heineman to Triple-A Worcester to make room on the active roster.

Sean Murphy Sitting Out Wednesday

Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy (elbow) is sitting out of Wednesday's matinee affair at Fenway Park against the Boston Red Sox.

James Bradberry Working At Safety

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that cornerback James Bradberry is taking repetitions at safety during offseason organized team activities. It's unclear if it will be a permanent move for Bradberry in 2024 and beyond, but it's something interesting to track as we head into training camp at the end of July next month. […]

Logan Evans A Candidate To Join Major-League Bullpen

Seattle Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto said on Tuesday that the team is legitimately considering right-handed pitching prospect Logan Evans for their big-league bullpen as soon as the second half of the season.

Houston Astros rookie right-hander Spencer Arrighetti (calf) left his start early on Tuesday against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals due to a left-calf contusion.

Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty (back) was removed from his start early in Texas against the Rangers on Tuesday due to back tightness, according to manager A.J. Hinch.

X-Rays Negative On Sean Murphy

Initial X-rays on Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy (elbow) came back negative on Tuesday night, and he is considered day-to-day. Murphy was hit in the right elbow by a pitch late in the 8-3 win over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park but has avoided any structural damage, thankfully. Before Murphy left the game, […]

To make room on the team's 40-man roster, the Braves moved left-handed reliever Tyler Matzek (elbow) to the 60-day injured list. Anderson became a free agent when […]

Gerrit Cole Looks Good In First Rehab Start

In his first minor-league rehab start on Tuesday with Double-A Somerset, New York Yankees right-hander Gerrit Cole (elbow) looked to be in midseason form, tossing 3 1/3 shutout innings while allowing two hits, walking none and striking out five.
