The Indianapolis Colts signed second-round wide receiver Alec Pierce to his rookie deal on Monday. Pierce's deal is worth $6.6 million and includes a signing bonus around $2 million.

The San Francisco Giants transferred starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani (ankle) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list on Monday.

Alex Noren Enters PGA Championship In Top Form

Alex Noren heads to Southern Hills riding an eight-event cuts-made streak. During that time, he has gained strokes from tee-to-green in all eight tournaments.

P.J. Tucker Listed On Monday's Injury Report

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker (calf) is questionable for the Eastern Conference Finals opener versus the Boston Celtics. The 37-year-old has been plagued by a nagging right calf strain, just like during the previous series against Philadelphia. However, Tucker logged 39 minutes in Game 6, so his consistent listing on the injury report is comical […]

Cameron Champ A Good Course Fit

After a tough start to the season, Cameron Champ appears to have found something heading into the second major championship of 2022. He has made the cut in three straight events, including a top-10 finish at the Masters in April. During his cuts-made streak, Champ has gained strokes on the field in all three events. […]

Michael Conforto Could Sign After MLB Draft

Free-agent outfielder Michael Conforto (shoulder) is open to signing with a team following the conclusion of the 2022 MLB draft in mid-July, according to his agent Scott Boras. Conforto injured his shoulder during the lockout and had surgery later in the spring, putting a serious damper on his free agency activities. The veteran was originally […]

Gary Woodland Searching For Consistency At Southern Hills

Gary Woodland enters the PGA Championship riding a stretch of inconsistency. During the 2021-2022 season, Woodland has made the cut in just seven of the 15 events he's played in. He has shown flashes of his old form, posting back-to-back top-five finishes at the Honda Classic and the Arnold Palmer Invitational earlier this year. However, […]

Patrick Reed Struggling Entering PGA Championship

2022 has been a rough year for Patrick Reed. He hasn't posted a top-10 finish this calendar year and has missed the cut in four of his last eight events. He's lost strokes from tee-to-green in every tournament he has played in this year and has been inconsistent with his putter, a club that he […]

Miami Heat guard Max Strus (hamstring) is questionable ahead of Tuesday's postseason battle against Boston. Strus continues to deal with a left hamstring strain. However, he was plagued by the ailment during the previous round against Philly as well, so his presence on the injury report is likely a formality at this point. The 26-year-old […]

Antonio Senzatela Removed Due To Injury Monday

Colorado Rockies right-hander Antonio Senzatela was removed from Monday's game against the San Francisco Giants after injuring himself while warming up before the third inning. On the bright side, it appeared as though Senzatela was dealing with cramping, so the injury does not seem to be serious. Senzatela had thrown two scoreless innings while posting […]

Caleb Martin Questionable Ahead Of Game 1

Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (ankle) is questionable heading into Tuesday's Eastern Conference Finals opener versus Boston. Martin dealt with the ailment throughout the previous series against Philadelphia. However, considering he didn't miss any time, it's unlikely he won't suit up for this one. Nonetheless, Martin has averaged just 2.9 points during the playoffs, so […]

Mitch Garver To Begin Rehab In Double-A Tuesday

Texas Rangers catcher Mitch Garver (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Frisco on Tuesday.

Kyle Lowry Remains Out On Tuesday Night

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (hamstring) won't play during Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals versus Boston. The veteran injured his left hamstring during Game 3 of the series with the Atlanta Hawks and has played just twice since. Considering the nature of the ailment, it would be quite the surprise if he can […]

Dylan Bundy Expected Back Tuesday

Minnesota Twins right-hander Dylan Bundy (illness) is expected to start for his team against the Oakland A's on Tuesday. Bundy has been on the injured list since he came down with COVID-19 early in May. The veteran right-hander draws a plus assignment against Oakland on Tuesday, but he may not work very deep into the […]

Robert Williams III Not On The Injury Report For Game 1

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's Eastern Conference Finals opener versus Miami.

Jake Odorizzi Carted Off Monday

Houston Astros right-hander Jake Odorizzi was carted off during the fifth inning of a Monday night game against the Boston Red Sox. Odorizzi collapsed off of the mound during the game and was in obvious pain. His leg was immediately checked on by trainers, both from Houston and the Red Sox. Odorizzi had allowed two […]

Jordan Romano Day-To-Day With Undisclosed Injury

Toronto Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano was unavailable for Monday's game against the Seattle Mariners, Sportsnet reports. He's experiencing some sort of ailment which has yet to be specified.

Marcus Smart Questionable For Series Opener

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (foot) is in danger of missing the opening contest of the Eastern Conference Finals versus Miami.

Cavan Biggio Reinstated And Sent To Triple-A

The Toronto Blue Jays reinstated infielder Cavan Biggio from the COVID-19 injured list on Monday. He has been optioned to Triple-A.

He struggled significantly during his time with the team, slashing .043/.214/.043 across 13 games. […]
