Victor Gonzalez Earns Save Monday

New York Yankees relief pitcher Victor Gonzalez earned his first save of the season in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks. Gonzalez came in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by three. He got the first out on a fly-out, gave up a ground-rule double, got the second out on a fly-out, […]

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Ryne Stanek picked up his first save of the season in Monday's 5-4 win over the Guardians. Stanek came in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by one and delivered a 1-2-3 inning with a strikeout. Andres Munoz would typically see save opportunities for the Mariners, but he […]

Baltimore Orioles second/third baseman Jordan Westburg made his one hit count in Monday's 6-4 win over the Royals, going 1-for-4 with a walk-off home run.

Shota Imanaga Dazzles In First Start

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Shota Imanaga made an excellent first impression in his regular-season debut, earning the win in a 5-0 game against the Rockies.

Trout went 2-for-4 with two home runs (including a 473-foot blast), a walk, and a strikeout.

Houston Astros starting pitcher Ronel Blanco had a memorable first start of 2024 in Monday's 10-0 win over the Blue Jays. The 30-year-old tossed a no-hitter, allowing two walks and seven strikeouts on 105 pitches. Blanco likely would not have been in the starting rotation if not for several injuries but made the most of […]

Carson Wentz Lands With Chiefs

Free-agent quarterback Carson Wentz signed an undisclosed deal one-year with the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday, according to sources. Wentz, the former second overall pick of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2016 out of North Dakota State will head to the Super Bowl-champion Chiefs after spending the 2023 season with the Los Angeles Rams, where he […]

Nikola Jokic Probable Versus The Spurs

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hip, wrist) is probable ahead of Monday's clash with the Spurs. The multi-time MVP has routinely appeared on the injury report over the last few weeks. However, he only missed one game during that span. As usual, Jokic has had an excellent year. But considering he's averaged 35 points in […]

Kyle Kuzma Still Out On Tuesday Night

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (back) remains out for Tuesday's clash with the Bucks. He's been in and out of the lineup over the last few weeks. But with Washington unable to make the postseason, that trend will likely continue throughout the Wizards' remaining eight games. With that said, Jordan Poole, who scored 22 points […]

Khris Middleton Draws Probable Tag For Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Wizards. His presence on the injury report is nothing new, so barring a setback, he should be out there. The 32-year-old had a strong showing in Saturday's win over Toronto, finishing with 21 points, six boards, and six assists. He also shot […]

Sidney Crosby Earns Three-Point Night Monday

Pittsburgh Penguins center Sidney Crosby notched two goals and an assist for a three-point night en route to a 5-2 win over the hosting New York Rangers. With the effort, the future Hall of Famer ensured he will hit at least one point per game for the 19th season, tying legend Wayne Gretzky for the […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Likely To Face Washington

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) is expected to play on Tuesday versus the Wizards. The multi-time MVP is making another appearance on the league's official injury report. However, this isn't anything new. But considering Milwaukee wants to keep a firm grasp on the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference, Antetokounmpo should continue to […]

Ryan Hartman Suspended Three Games

Minnesota Wild center Ryan Hartman has been hit with a three-game ban for unsportsmanlike conduct following a 2-1 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Saturday. Hartman was assessed a 10-minute misconduct for his behavior at 3:30 of overtime. The Wild had pulled their goaltender in overtime, which left them vulnerable to lose the […]

Keldon Johnson Sidelined On Tuesday

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (foot) won't suit up for Tuesday's matchup with the Nuggets. Johnson has a sprained left foot. However, the Spurs have nothing to play for this season, meaning he may not be back for the rest of the 2023-24 campaign. With Devin Vassell (foot) and Jeremy Sochan (ankle) also sidelined, […]

Alex Nylander Bags A Pair Of Goals Monday

Columbus Blue Jackets forward Alex Nylander scored a pair of second-period goals as his team pulled off a massive upset over the visiting Colorado Avalanche. The 26-year-old has exploded seemingly out of nowhere this season, tallying 10 goals and 13 points in 17 games while firing 48 shots on goal in that time. The brother […]

John Collins Still Out Versus Cleveland

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) won't play on Tuesday against the Cavaliers. The 26-year-old didn't suit up for Sunday's loss to the Sacramento Kings because of back spasms. But truth be told, he has no incentive to return for any of Utah's remaining games, considering the Jazz can't make the postseason. Nevertheless, Collins' next […]

Auston Matthews Reaches Goal No. 62 Monday

Toronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews scored two goals on Monday and increased his league-leading total to 62 as part of a 6-4 win over the visiting Florida Panthers. The 26-year-old added an assist and was plus-three on the night in his 18:36 of ice time. Matthews tapped in a pass from T.J. Brodie to […]

Tyler Herro Remains Out On Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) will sit out for the 19th consecutive game as he ramps up his work at practice to eventually return from medial tendinitis in his right foot. Herro's last game played was on February 23 and he's now missed 38 games this year. The Heat are still in contention for […]

Jordan Clarkson Out Again On Tuesday Night

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (pelvis) won't play on Tuesday versus the Cavs. The Jazz can't make the postseason, so there's a chance the veteran is done for the rest of the 2023-24 campaign. But with John Collins (back) and Lauri Markkanen (shoulder) also sidelined, Collin Sexton, Keyonte George, Brice Sensabaugh, and Taylor Hendricks all […]

Tom Kim Looking To Find Some Kind Of Form At Valero

Tom Kim has been on a rough road this season with a best finish of T17 at the WM Phoenix Open. Other than a mediocre 82nd ranking in strokes gained on approach (0.051), he is positioned outside the top 100 in every other strokes gained statistic. The South Korean is undoubtedly one of the biggest […]

Duncan Robinson Expected To Meet The Knicks

Miami Heat guard Duncan Robinson (back) is listed as probable for Tuesday's battle against the New York Knicks. The sharpshooter missed five games due to Left Facet Syndrome before returning on Sunday versus the Washington Wizards. Unfortunately, he struggled in that one, scoring six points while draining just two of his seven tries from downtown. […]

Mitchell Robinson Questionable Against Miami

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is questionable ahead of Tuesday's showdown with Miami. After sitting out for over three months because of left ankle surgery, he has appeared in two games. However, the 2018 No. 26 overall pick aggravated the issue, keeping him off the floor for Sunday's one-point loss to Oklahoma City. […]

X-Ray Comes Back Negative For Myles Turner

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (finger) received an X-ray on his hand after dislocating his right index finger during Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The X-rays came back negative for any fractures which means a drastically shorter recovery time. Head coach Rick Carlisle said that they don't know his status just yet for their […]

Mets Renew Talks With Julio Teheran

The New York Mets are open to external options to bolster their starting rotation and have renewed talks with free-agent veteran right-hander Julio Teheran, according to league sources. The Mets finished second to the Baltimore Orioles on Teheran in spring training, but he recently opted out of his contract with the O's and is available […]

Dodgers Call Up Dinelson Lamet

The Los Angeles Dodgers selected right-hander Dinelson Lamet's contract from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday and designated right-handed reliever Nabil Crismatt for assignment in a corresponding move. Lamet will be making his season debut when he gets into a game, as he hadn't appeared at all for Oklahoma City. The 31-year-old veteran will provide the […]

Russell Henley Is A Hard Pass At TPC San Antonio

There have been spurts of good form this season from Russell Henley, but there has certainly been more evidence on the opposite side of that coin. He has struck the ball horribly from tee to green, ranking 96th in strokes gained off the tee (-0.011) and 114th in strokes gained on approach (-0.145). The 30th […]
