Brett Baty Unavailable Tuesday With Minor Thumb Injury

New York Mets third baseman Brett Baty (thumb) was unavailable to pinch hit in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Dodgers due to a minor thumb injury he sustained over the weekend, per MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. The injury also explains his absence from the starting lineup, but it sounds as though he is merely day-to-day. The […]

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jameson Taillon (forearm) exited Tuesday's game against the Angels at the end of the top of the second inning after getting hit in the right forearm with a line drive, per the team's Twitter account.

Raiders Waive Alex Leatherwood

The Las Vegas Raiders waived former first-round offensive lineman Alex Leatherwood on Tuesday, according to a source. The Raiders had been looking to trade Leatherwood this summer, but he was difficult to move given his $6 million guaranteed salary over the next three years. The 23-year-old was the 17th overall selection last year out of […]

Buccaneers Release Logan Ryan

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers released safety Logan Ryan on Tuesday despite receiving consistent praise from the coaching staff during training camp. Ryan is a vested veteran and won't be subject to waivers, so the Bucs will likely look to bring him back on Wednesday after center Ryan Jensen (knee) goes on Injured Reserve. The 31-year-old […]

Tre'Davious White To Miss First Four Games

Buffalo Bills star cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) will start the year on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning he'll miss at least the first four games of the regular season. White continues to recover from a knee injury that he suffered last November. When healthy, the 27-year-old is one of the best lockdown cornerbacks […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Cut By Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks cut wide receivers J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and wide receiver Freddie Swain, quarterback Jacob Eason, running back Darwin Thompson, cornerback Justin Coleman and safety Marquise Blair on Tuesday. Arcega-Whiteside was acquired in a trade from the Philadelphia Eagles during training camp, but he obviously didn't do enough to impress the team. The 25-year-old made […]

Chet Holmgren Has Successful Surgery

Oklahoma City Thunder center Chet Holmgren (foot) underwent successful surgery. The rookie recently suffered a Lisfranc injury during a Pro-Am game in Seattle while attempting to block a dunk from LeBron James. Instead, Holmgren will now miss the entire 2022-23 campaign. However, his status beyond that is up in the air.

Tyler Badie Among Ravens Roster Cuts

Baltimore Ravens rookie running back Tyler Badie was among the team's many roster cuts on Tuesday. Badie was used heavily in the preseason and training camp with both J.K.

Boston Red Sox pitcher Tanner Houck (back) didn't throw live batting practice as scheduled Tuesday due to continued back soreness. He has been sidelined since August 9 with a disc issue in his back. The 26-year-old is "on hold" with continued back soreness. He has been solid this season, posting a 3.15 ERA and 1.18 […]

Markieff Morris Heading To Brooklyn

Free-agent forward Markieff Morris is heading to the Nets on a one-year deal. The 32-year-old averaged 7.6 points and 2.6 boards with the Heat last season, although he played only 17 games due to injury. While the veteran shouldn't be a routine fantasy contributor, he has a chance to earn a meaningful role in the […]

Greg Dulcich Placed On Injured Reserve

Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) has been placed on the injured reserve on Tuesday. The third-round pick was quickly gaining hype during training camp. That will come to a halt as Dulcich will miss at least the first four games of the season. That means, Albert Okwuegbunam could see more looks coming his […]

RJ Barrett Receives Contract Extension

New York Knicks forward RJ Barrett agreed to a four-year, $107 million extension with the team on Tuesday. With incentives, he could earn as much as $120 million.

Joey Bart Placed On 7-Day Injured List

The San Francisco Giants placed catcher Joey Bart (concussion) on the 7-day injured list Tuesday. He went through the concussion protocol on Monday after being removed from the game early against the San Diego Padres.

Malik Willis Named Backup Quarterback

Tennessee Titans quarterback Malik Willis will open the season as the backup quarterback. Clearly, the Titans have enough faith in their rookie that they released Logan Woodside. Willis will serve as the primary backup to Ryan Tannehill to begin the season. During the preseason, Willis threw two touchdowns and one interception while rushing for 159 […]

Cal Quantrill Wins 11th Game On Tuesday
