Ronny Mauricio Not Being Called Up Tuesday

Several New York Mets minor-leaguers are at the ready at the team's hotel in Kansas City on trade-deadline day on Tuesday, potentially waiting to take the place of players they expect to move, but shortstop prospect Ronny Mauricio isn't one of them. The Mets have already traded starting pitchers Max Scherzer and outfielder Mark Canha, […]

Nolan Gorman Remains Out Against Twins

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Nolan Gorman (back) remains out of Tuesday's starting lineup against the visiting Minnesota Twins.

No Structural Damage For Bo Bichette

Updating a previous report, Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that shortstop Bo Bichette (knee) underwent an MRI exam on Monday night that showed no significant structural damage, just inflammation. Bichette is considered day-to-day for now. There's a good chance that Bichette won't play on Tuesday against the Baltimore Orioles after leaving early on […]

Brewers Acquire Andrew Chafin From Diamondbacks

The Milwaukee Brewers are acquiring left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin from the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday, according to a source. It's unclear what the Brewers are sending the D-backs in return.

Tommy Edman Activated From Injured List

The St. Louis Cardinals activated infielder/outfielder Tommy Edman (wrist) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and recalled right-hander Zack Thompson from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move. Edman returns to St. Louis after missing three weeks with right-wrist inflammation, but he's a candidate to be moved at Tuesday's deadline, so he might not be […]

Bo Bichette Not Expected To Be Out Long

The Toronto Blue Jays acquired shortstop Paul DeJong from the St. Louis Cardinals at the trade deadline on Tuesday as depth for star shortstop Bo Bichette (knee), but Bichette isn't expected to be out for long.

With Las Vegas Raiders tight ends Michael Mayer and Jesper Horsted having strong training camps to this point, the Raiders released veteran O.J. Howard on Tuesday.

Rays Acquire Adrian Sampson, Manuel Rodriguez From Cubs

The Tampa Bay Rays acquired right-handers Adrian Sampson, Manuel Rodriguez and cash considerations from the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday in exchange for minor-league pitcher Josh Roberson.

Verlander […]

Astros The Heavy Favorites To Land Justin Verlander

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Hunter Greene (hip) is beginning a minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday in the Arizona Complex League. Right-hander Casey Legumina (shoulder) will also shift his rehab assignment from the Arizona Complex League to Triple-A Louisville.

Max Scherzer To Make Rangers Debut Thursday

Texas Rangers right-hander Max Scherzer will make his debut for the Rangers on Thursday in a solid matchup against the Chicago White Sox. Scherzer agreed to waive his no-trade clause to be traded from the New York Mets to the Rangers over the weekend. The 39-year-old future Hall of Famer isn't quite as dominant as […]

Noah Syndergaard Hit By Comebacker Monday

Cleveland Guardians right-hander Noah Syndergaard (leg) was pulled from his debut with Cleveland early on Monday against the Houston Astros in the sixth inning after getting hit by a comebacker in the lower right leg.

New York Jets wide receivers Garrett Wilson (ankle) and Corey Davis (illness) are both out of training camp practice again on Tuesday. Wilson suffered a low-ankle sprain in last Thursday's practice and hasn't been out on the field since. It's not a serious injury and the second-year wideout should be considered day-to-day. The 23-year-old has […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Back At Tuesday's Practice

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson is back at training camp practice on Tuesday after Monday's load management. Stevenson was off on a side field on Monday, prompting some folks to speculate that he was rehabbing an undisclosed injury.

Michael Mayer Could Be Heavily Targeted In Rookie Season

The Las Vegas Raiders traded up to the No. 35 overall selection in this year's NFL draft to take rookie tight end Michael Mayer out of Notre Dame, and the odds are that Mayer is going to be a favorite target of quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in his first NFL season now that Darren Waller is […]

Russell Gage Making Progress

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (leg) joined his teammates at training camp practice on Sunday, and although he wasn't involved in full-team periods, the sixth-year wideout took part in individual position drills.

Matthew Stafford Won't Miss Anymore Days Of Camp

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said the plan was for quarterback Matthew Stafford to rest on Monday at training cap so that he stays on a schedule similar to the regular season, where he will throw four out of seven days. McVay said Stafford will not miss anymore days of training camp. The […]

Diamondbacks Acquire Jace Peterson From A's

The Arizona Diamondbacks acquired infielder Jace Peterson and cash considerations from the Oakland Athletics on Monday in exchange for right-hander Chad Patrick. Peterson will fill more of a utility bench role for the contending Diamondbacks down the stretch, so he won't have much fantasy appeal outside of deeper leagues the rest of the way. The […]

Teoscar Hernandez Drawing Interest From At Least Six Teams

Seattle Mariners outfielder Teoscar Hernandez is drawing trade interest from at least half a dozen teams, and a trade is increasingly likely before the deadline on Tuesday, Aug. 1, according to sources.

Rhamondre Stevenson Rehabs On Monday

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (undisclosed) spent most of Monday's training camp practice on the lower rehab field, with Kevin Harris, Pierre Strong Jr. and J.J. Taylor being the lone RB options. The Patriots could still sign Ezekiel Elliott or Dalvin Cook, especially with Ty Montgomery (leg) also injured. Stevenson should be the […]

Colts Being Vague On Jonathan Taylor's Status
