LOS ANGELES -- While the Dodgers remain optimistic that Shohei Ohtani will avoid the injured list, manager Dave Roberts acknowledged that an IL stint could be more of a possibility if the two-way superstar continues to miss time.

SAN DIEGO -- The Padres hope there are more Luis Campusano moments to come. Maybe a couple more swings like this one in October. Maybe another few big-time throws as the lights grow even brighter down the stretch. Still, a night like this one served as justification for all of

MIAMI – For starting pitcher Shota Imanaga, a new haircut might have been the thing he needed to put his latest skid behind him. “I was out there trying my best because, if I cut my hair, I have to pitch well,” Imanaga said through interpreter Edwin Stanberry. That's exactly

LOS ANGELES -- From the crack of the bat, there was little doubt that Kyle Tucker had hit one out of the yard. It had been a long time since he had taken a swing like that. Tucker's solo homer in the sixth inning of the Dodgers' 5-3 series-opening victory

BALTIMORE -- On a hot summer Friday night at Camden Yards, nobody would have believed that a solo homer in the top of the first inning by mashing Mickey Gasper would be the difference in the game. But everything Gasper touches turns to gold of late, and when he barrels

CLEVELAND -- The Tigers’ plans for Justin Verlander's farewell are set, with a two-day celebration set for the Friday and Saturday of the regular season’s final weekend to recognize a two-decade career. Verlander’s plans for that final stretch, on the other hand, are still a work in progress.

CINCINNATI -- Prior to Friday night’s game, Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Shane Drohan was among the team’s unsung heroes this season and that the left-hander would remain in the starting rotation while the team continues to monitor his effectiveness. “We're keeping him in this spot right now,” Murphy said.

The Rays’ rotation took a significant hit Friday as it lost left-handed starter Shane McClanahan to the 15-day injured list due to left forearm tightness. Right-hander Alex Cook was recalled from Triple-A Durham in a corresponding move. The IL placement comes one day after McClanahan allowed four earned runs over

PITTSBURGH -- Konnor Griffin swiped his left hand across home plate, then pumped his right fist while shouting with excitement. The 20-year-old Pirates shortstop returned from the 60-day injured list on Friday and instantly showed off his patented elite speed. In the bottom of the second inning, Jake Mangum ripped

Major League Baseball announced the 2027 Spring Training schedule on Friday.

The Blue Jays’ defense of their American League championship did not go according to plan in 2026, but that doesn’t mean huge changes are in store for Toronto heading into 2027. Although the Blue Jays sit at 71-71, they somehow remain only one game out of the final AL Wild
