Kenyon Martin Jr. Questionable For Friday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers small forward Kenyon Martin Jr. (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Charlotte.

Chris Boucher Still Dealing With An Illness, Questionable Friday

Toronto Raptors power forward Chris Boucher (illness) is regarded as questionable for Friday's clash with the Warriors. He's been feeling under the weather and could be absent for a second consecutive contest due to a non-COVID illness. However, it's already been three games since the last time Boucher saw any action, so he's not really […]

Cal Petersen Clears Waivers

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Cal Petersen has cleared waivers, paving a path for a demotion to the American Hockey League's Lehigh Valley Phantoms. The 29-year-old started Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Penguins but was shelled for seven goals on 32 shots (.781 save percentage) while taking the loss. It was just the fifth appearance (fourth start) […]

Cam Reddish Considered Probable For Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (ankle) has been listed as probable for Thursday's game against Washington. He's only just returned from a 14-game absence, but it looks like Reddish has recovered well enough to be available for the second leg of a back-to-back. He put in a 20-minute shift in his comeback game against […]

Spencer Martin Gets The Nod Thursday

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Spencer Martin is the starting goalie for Thursday's road game versus the Columbus Blue Jackets. Interestingly, Martin was claimed off waivers by the Hurricanes from the Blue Jackets recently and has been on fire in his new digs. The 28-year-old has gone 3-0-1 in four starts with the 'Canes while posting a […]

Anthony Davis Probable For Meeting With Wizards

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against Washington, with the team listing him as probable for the favorable matchup.

LeBron James Picks Up Questionable Tag For Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's clash with the Wizards. James put in a vintage performance on Wednesday against the Clippers but could sit out the second leg of a back-to-back to rest his ailing left ankle. The veteran superstar has skipped one game in each of […]

Alex Lyon To Start Again Thursday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Alex Lyon will once again be between the pipes for Thursday's home game versus the New York Islanders. The 31-year-old won an 8-3 decision over the Washington Capitals his last time out and will make his fifth start over his team's last six games on Thursday. Lyon has been the club's […]

Orlando Robinson Cleared For Action

Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) will be available Thursday versus Denver. He has been absent for the last three games with a back issue. Robinson will be an extra body to through at Nikola Jokic, but he isn't expected to see a lot of minutes. For the season, he's averaged 10.0 minutes in 24 […]

Moritz Seider Good To Go Thursday

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Moritz Seider will suit up for Thursday's contest versus the visiting New York Islanders. Seider was banged up after blocking five shots in an 8-3 win over the Washington Capitals on Tuesday but head coach Derek Lalonde said his rugged blueliner is indeed good to go. The German blueliner is having […]

Max Kranick Down For A While Due To Hamstring Strain

New York Mets right-hander Max Kranick (hamstring) is dealing with a left-hamstring strain and will "be down a while," according to manager Carlos Mendoza. It effectively takes Kranick out of the competition for the fifth starting spot to open the 2024 season. The 26-year-old could eventually join the Mets' rotation eventually, but he's going to […]

Nassir Little Out On Thursday

Phoenix Suns forward Nassir Little (knee) isn't available for Thursday's matchup against Houston. The 24-year-old is dealing with inflammation in his left knee. Little played less than a minute in the last game against the Lakers, so his absence won't impact the Suns in any way. Following a decent campaign in 2021-22, Little's play has […]

Miles Mikolas Working On His Slider

St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Miles Mikolas was an All-Star in 2018 and 2022, but he struggled to a 9-13 record, 4.78 ERA (4.27 FIP) and 1.32 WHIP with a league-high 226 hits allowed, a league-high 107 earned runs given up, 39 walks and 137 strikeouts in 201 1/3 innings over 35 starts.

Marat Khusnutdinov To Join Wild As Soon As Possible

Minnesota Wild forward prospect Marat Khusnutdinov will join the team as soon as possible after signing a two-year, entry-level contract on Wednesday, according to Wild general manager Bill Guerin.

Christian Walker Leaves Early After Being Hit By Pitch

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Christian Walker (hand) left the team's Cactus League game early on Thursday against the San Francisco Giants after being hit on the hand by a pitch. He'll presumably be taken for X-rays, and we'll have the results of those X-rays when they become available. Hopefully, the 32-year-old avoids any breaks in […]

David Villar Seeing Extensive Playing Time In Camp

San Francisco Giants infielder David Villar is once again in the team's Cactus League lineup on Thursday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, starting at first base and batting cleanup. This is already Villar's fifth game in spring training, and so far he's gone 2-for-7 with two doubles and a run scored in Cactus League action. The […]

Kent Johnson Out Indefinitely With Upper-Body Injury

Columbus Blue Jackets forward Kent Johnson will be sidelined indefinitely due to an upper-body injury.

Angels Want Logan O'Hoppe To Catch 125-135 Games

Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington said that he'd like to see catcher Logan O'Hoppe catch roughly 125 to 135 games this year. The Angels are fully expecting O'Hoppe to be their regular backstop in 2024 despite the fact that he missed almost four months in 2023 with a torn labrum in his left shoulder. […]

Josh Norris To Miss Extended Period Of Time

Ottawa Senators forward Josh Norris is going to miss an extended period of time due to an upper-body injury suffered in a collision with Nashville Predators forward Cole Smith during Tuesday's 4-1 loss.

Joseph Woll To Return Thursday

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Joseph Woll (ankle) will be back between the pipes for Thursday's home game versus the Arizona Coyotes. The 25-year-old has been out since suffering a high-ankle sprain in a Dec. 7 win over the Ottawa Senators. The Leafs recalled Woll from his AHL conditioning stint earlier in the week. Woll was […]

Ryan Mountcastle Out Sick Thursday

Updating a previous report, Baltimore Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that first baseman Ryan Mountcastle (illness) was scratched from Thursday's Grapefruit League lineup against the Pittsburgh Pirates because he was under the weather. Mountcastle is fine and should be back in the lineup in spring training games soon. The 27-year-old right-handed-hitting first baseman missed a […]

Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect Paul Skenes, the first overall pick in last year's draft, hit 102 mph twice with his fastball in a scoreless first inning in his Grapefruit League debut on Thursday against the Baltimore Orioles.

Yasmani Grandal The Starter Over Henry Davis?

When asked if catcher Yasmani Grandal was the team's starting catcher, Pittsburgh Pirates manager Derek Shelton suggested that Grandal would be the starter, but that he would have his workload limited over the course of the season. "Yaz is going to catch. Yas is also 35 years old, so whoever our C2 is is going […]
