Luis Severino Won't Pitch In World Baseball Classic

New York Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino will not pitch for the Dominican Republic in the 2023 World Baseball Classic because general manager Brian Cashman didn't allow him, according to a source.

Demarcus Robinson Undergoes Hernia Surgery

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (hernia) underwent sports-hernia surgery earlier this week, he announced on his official Instagram page.

Kodai Senga Had Iffy Physical With Mets

New York Mets starting pitcher Kodai Senga throws 100 mph and has a forkball so nasty that it's called a "ghost pitch," but he only received a $75 million deal over five years as a mid-rotation starter due to what sources are calling an iffy physical with the team. It's common for Japanese pitchers to […]

New York Jets impending free-agent quarterback Mike White is likely to draw interest on the open market this offseason as a high-end backup.

Falcons Still Consider Feleipe Franks A Tight End

It sounds as though the Atlanta Falcons haven't given up on making Feleipe Franks a tight end.

Franks is under contract […]
