Chicago White Sox pitching prospect Noah Schultz (knee) returned to the mound at Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday for the first time since July 3. Chicago's second-ranked prospect felt discomfort in his knee while warming up for his start on July 19, but appears to have made a full recovery. The 6-foot-10 southpaw only went two innings on Sunday, […]
Houston Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel finished his preseason with a quiet stat line of three catches for 18 yards and no touchdowns.

Stroud, who told beat writer Jared Koch that the young wideout "looks great" and […]
Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant, a third-round pick out of Illinois, finished his impressive preseason with 10 catches for 129 yards. The 6'3", 190-pound wideout, who had 54 catches for 984 yards and 10 touchdowns his senior year, has earned the backup role to the team's top wideout, Courtland Sutton. This was made […]
Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (ankle) is still dealing with a minor ankle injury he sustained during last week's preseason win over the Kansas City Chiefs. However, his strong camp and preseason performance may have already earned him a starting spot. The fifth-round pick out of Colorado State finished the preseason with four […]
St. Louis Cardinals shortstop prospect J.J. Wetherholt has not slowed down at Triple-A, going 3-for-4 on Saturday, including a walk, two doubles, and one run scored for Memphis. The Cardinals' top-ranked prospect has looked right at home at Triple-A, hitting .316 with a 1.055 OPS in 30 games at that level. Additionally, he's recorded seven […]
The Washington Commanders' backfield has been at the center of many discussions during the preseason. This past week, the Commanders traded presumed starter Brian Robinson Jr., which leaves veteran Austin Ekeler and potentially seventh-round rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt as the lead options. During the preseason, the seventh-round rookie looked rather impressive and is making a strong […]
New York Jets rookie tight end Mason Taylor was one of many key players who did not play in the team's final preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday.

Texas Rangers corner infielder Jake Burger (wrist) has begun swinging a bat as part of a hitting progression. This is a step forward in his recovery process that will likely still take another week or so. Burger landed on the injured list on August 18 due a left wrist sprain. The hope is that he's […]
Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Lazaro Montes homered for the fourth time in his last four games on Saturday at Double-A Arkansas, which has also included six RBI and six runs scored over that stretch.

New York Mets pitching prospect Brandon Sproat is getting a look at reliever and is expected to come out of the bullpen on Saturday for Triple-A Syracuse.

Boston Red Sox starting pitchers Richard Fitts and Kyle Harrison are both candidates to take the mound for Monday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The Red Sox are looking for a pitcher to fill the void in the rotation with Walker Buehler heading to the bullpen. It would make the most sense for the Red […]
Coming into the 2024 season, perhaps no collegiate running back was thought to have a higher ceiling than Oklahoma State's Ollie Gordon II. Unfortunately, following an inefficient, injury-hampered junior season, Gordon saw his stock plummet before the 2025 NFL Draft, where he was eventually selected in the 6th round by the Miami Dolphins, 179th overall. […]
