Philadelphia 76ers small forward Danny Green (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Magic as he continues to work his way back from a laceration on his left middle finger.

Chavez spent the 2021 season with the Atlanta Braves, where he went 3-2 with a 2.14 ERA and 1.01 WHIP while striking out 36 and walking 11 in 30 appearances (four starts) over 33 2/3 innings pitched.

Portland Trail Blazers small forward Josh Hart had far and away the best offensive night of his career to this point during Saturday's victory over Washington. Hart, whose previous career high in scoring was 30 points, sizzled en route to a 44-point performance on 15-for-21 shooting overall. To cap off one of the more all-around […]

Brad Hand On The Mets Radar

Free-agent relief pitcher Brad Hand is on the New York Mets radar. The Mets are trying to add a good left-handed reliever to a strong righty-heavy bullpen before spring training.

Golden State Warriors small forward Klay Thompson had his entire offensive arsenal firing during Saturday's win over the Bucks as he set new season highs with 38 points and eight made triples.

Niko Goodrum Joins Astros

The Houston Astros signed free-agent infielder Niko Goodrum on Saturday to a $2.1 million deal plus incentives.

In 2021, […]

Jeurys Familia Signs With Phillies
