Los Angeles Angels first baseman Jared Walsh (head) will start his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

Chas McCormick Out With Sore Back

Houston Astros outfielder Chas McCormick (back) is out of Wednesday's lineup against the Los Angeles Angels with a sore back, according to manager Dusty Baker.

The Houston Astros have sent outfielder Michael Brantley (shoulder) back for further testing after it was announced on Tuesday that he had been shut down from hitting for a couple of days.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez is starting in center field on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers, but he has been dropped to sixth in the batting order against right-hander Dane Dunning.

Rays Designate Chase Anderson For Assignment

The Tampa Bay Rays designated right-hander Chase Anderson for assignment on Wednesday after he threw five scoreless innings for the team in two relief appearances.

Max Muncy Sitting Against Lefty Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy is not in the team's starting lineup on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers and left-hander Wade Miley.

Deonte Banks Could Make Impact From Day 1

New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll constantly reiterates that training camp this summer will be a competition for starting spots, but rookie cornerback Deonte Banks could have the biggest impact from Day 1.

Isaiah Foskey Could Be Rotational Pass-Rusher

New Orleans Saints rookie pass-rusher Isaiah Foskey has an opportunity to emerge as a potent pass-rusher opposite Cam Jordan in his first NFL season. Carl Granderson might be the favorite to start, but Payton Turner is closer than not to being labeled a bust, and Marcus Davenport is gone. Foskey has a reasonable chance to […]

Chad Ryland To Compete With Nick Folk

The New England Patriots traded up in the fourth round of this year's NFL draft to take kicker Chad Ryland, who will technically compete with Nick Folk for the job in training camp this summer.

Jordan Addison Should Make An Immediate Impact

Minnesota Vikings rookie wide receiver Jordan Addison is undersized at 5-foot-11 and 173 pounds, which raises durability concerns, but the Vikings wouldn't have taken him in the first round of this year's NFL draft if they didn't think he could thrive immediately. His separation skills at multiple levels will create flexibility for head coach Kevin […]

Cam Smith Could Get On The Field Right Away

Miami Dolphins rookie cornerback Cam Smith is a fine athlete whose ability to play inside and out and his love for making plays in the running game should get him on the field right away in his first NFL season, even in a secondary that already boasts two top talents in Jalen Ramsey and Xavien […]
