Cardinals The Favorites To Sign Sonny Gray

The St. Louis Cardinals are considered the favorites to sign free-agent right-hander Sonny Gray.

Rangers The Heavy Favorite To Sign Josh Hader

The Texas Rangers are considered the heavy favorites to sign free-agent closer Josh Hader this offseason. The Philadelphia Phillies have shown little appetite for Hader, which should especially be true after they signed re-signed right-hander Aaron Nola to a big long-term deal on Sunday. The Rangers are looking to upgrade the back end of their […]

Keegan Murray Won't Return On Monday

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It sounds like Murray is dealing with a lower back issue.

Malcolm Brogdon Uncertain For Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns.

Otherwise, Skylar Mays and Shaedon […]
