The Jacksonville Jaguars plan to re-sign impending free-agent wide receiver Calvin Ridley this offseason.

It means that the Jaguars need to wait until after the […]

Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider made sure to point out how "electric" right-hander Mitch White looked in his first bullpen session this spring, where he was sitting at around 94-95 mph with his fastball.

Dallas Cowboys Biggest Offseason Needs - 2024 NFL Outlook

The Dallas Cowboys surely had their ups and downs during the 2023-2024 season. They lost to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 3 and were blown out 42-10 by the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5.

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Brendan Donovan (elbow) will have his throwing monitored at camp and is likely to stick at second base for now.

Dylan Carlson Limited With His Running

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Dylan Carlson (ankle) is limited with his running in spring training.

New England Patriots Biggest Offseason Needs - 2024 NFL Outlook

It was a rough year for the New England Patriots in 2023. They started the season 2-9 with Mac Jones, and then Bailey Zappe took over for Jones in the final six games. Zappe led the Patriots to a 2-4 record to end the year, but it's safe to say neither will be the starting […]

Andrew Benintendi A Candidate To Hit Leadoff

Chicago White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said that outfielder Andrew Benintendi is a candidate to hit leadoff for the team this season.
