The San Diego Padres and Athletics have engaged in a blockbuster MLB trade deadline deal with multiple significant moving pieces.

The Padres have now shored up their starting rotation and back end of the bullpen for the closing stretch of the season, as they are set to acquire Athletics closer Mason Miller and starting pitcher JP Sears, according to a report from ESPN's Jeff Passan.

In return, the the A's will receive the No. 3 prospect in all of baseball – shortstop Leodalis De Vries, as well as three pitchers – RHP Braden Nett, RHP Henry Baez and RHP Eduarniel Nunez – in exchange for Miller and Sears.

Miller, a 2024 All-Star, has posted a 3.76 ERA in 31.1 innings pitched this season, while accumulating 20 saves. While it's a bit of a step back from his All-Star form last season, he's tough to navigate when he's right.

Sears will provide depth to the starting rotation. He's 7-9 this season with a 4.95 ERA across 111.0 innings of work.

The Padres are 60-49 on the season, and sit three games out of first-place in the NL West.

Ao todo, a lista inclui 169 jogadores de 23 ligas diferentes. Outros quatro atletas do Brasileirão foram citados: Vitor Roque (Palmeiras), Alysson (Grêmio), Flaco López (Palmeiras) e Allan (Palmeiras). O líder geral é Yan Diomandé (RB Leipzig), seguido por Nick Woltemade (Newcastle) e Bazoumana Touré (Hoffenheim).

Lucro garantido para o Botafogo?

O Alvinegro pagou € 7,9 milhões (R$ 50 milhões na época) de euros ao Vélez Sarsfield, da Argentina, por Montoro, que chegou no meio deste ano. Ou seja, caso consiga negociá-lo pelo valor de mercado previsto pelo CIES, já garantiria mais de quatro vezes o montante investido. O argentino tem potencial, inclusive, para ser a maior a venda da história do Botafogo: o posto atualmente pertence a Luiz Henrique, negociado com o Zenit, da Rússia, por 35 milhões de euros (R$ 220 milhões na época).

Tratado com muito carinho por Davide Ancelotti devido à pouca idade, o meia já fez 23 jogos pelo clube, com quatro gols marcados. No último jogo do Brasileirão desta temporada, contra o Fortaleza, deixou a sua marca em linda finalização de chapa.

No duelo entre o Tricolor e o Atlético-MG, o camisa 30 reclamou de uma aplicação de cartão amarelo dada por Raphael Claus após uma falta dura em Otávio. O atleta disse que “John Textor tem razão”, em relação as acusações do dono do Botafogo com relação a manipulação de jogos no país.

Além disso, Bruno Spindel reclamou veementemente da arbitragem de Paulo Cesar Zanovelli no confronto entre Flamengo e RB Bragantino. No fim da partida, o dirigente afirmou que as acusações de fraudes e roubos estão prejudicando o Rubro-Negro.

– Outra acusação que também não pode passar é a do diretor do Flamengo, Bruno Spindel. No jogo Bragantino x Flamengo, se revoltou contra a atuação de Paulo Cesar Zanovelli dizendo que o Flamengo está sendo prejudicado e que a arbitragem favorecerá o clube que acusá-la de roubo, fraude, assalto, colocando pressão nos árbitros e dessa forma garantindo resultado favorável à sua equipe.

No fim, a Abrafut defendeu a arbitragem do país e afirmou que os profissionais estão sendo usados como “cortina de fumaça” por conta dos resultados em campo. E reclamou do comportamento de jogadores e comissões técnicas.

– Vai ser impossível termos um futebol de qualidade tanto para os membros que trabalham nessa modalidade, quanto para os torcedores e espectadores se todas as insatisfações forem justificadas pela injusta desconfiança, descrença, suspeita e incredulidade em cima do trabalho da arbitragem. A Abrafut, em defesa dos seus árbitros, entrará com uma notícia de infração no STJD.

Com isso, o Supremo Tribunal de Justiça Desportiva fará uma avaliação com relação a uma infração no Código Brasileiro de Justiça Desportivo (CBJD). A Corte pode ouvir testemunhas e realizar diligências.

Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong made some local kids' day over the weekend when he surprised them by patronizing their small business—a good old-fashioned lemonade stand.

According to Cubs reporter Taylor McGregor, the kids were attempting to make enough money so that one of them could replicate PCA's hairstyle from spring training: bleached hair with blue stars.

Well, Crow-Armstrong caught wind of the valiant effort, and decided to invest in the Wrigleyville start-up. The kids were, of course, elated when he arrived, at which point they immediately asked the star to sign a paper towel and take pictures.

But to top it all off, PCA reportedly rounded out the visit by giving these entrepreneurs enough cash for the hairstyle of their dreams.

Watch an adorable video of that interaction below:

What a success.

Sometimes an MLB pitcher delivers a ball to the plate so good there’s simply nothing a batter can do.

Such was the case on Monday night when Diamondbacks starting pitcher Brandon Pfaadt put away Padres first baseman Luis Arraez.

Pfaadt delivered a changeup that dropped so far off the plate that Arraez nearly lost his footing chasing after it. After his swinging third strike, cameras caught Arraez mouthing “Wow,” simply in awe of his opposition.

Arraez is not an easy guy to make look silly at the plate. As the two-time reigning NL batting title champion, Arraez is used to figuring out a way to get on base. But against Pfaadt on Monday night, he was left looking for answers that never came.

The Diamondbacks would go on to win the game, 6–2.

Former Red Sox outfielder and 2018 World Series champion Jackie Bradley Jr. has not played in the major leagues since the 2023 season. But instead of retiring, Bradley is taking a different path in an effort to extend his playing career.

Bradley was drafted with the No. 1 pick by the Indianapolis Clowns in the inaugural Banana Ball League draft on Thursday night. The exhibition baseball league, made famous by the Savannah Bananas, will play a 60-game schedule in 2026 featuring six teams: the Bananas, Clowns, Party Animals, Firefighters, Loco Beach Coconuts and the Texas Tailgaters.

The opportunity for Bradley to join the Banana Ball league, specifically with the Clowns, was a meaningful one. The Clowns' addition to Banana Ball next season is a revival of the club from their days in the Negro Leagues. The Clowns were disbanded in 1989, but have now been brought back to play in 2026.

"I feel like this was another opportunity to not only the league, but to be able to help the people behind me to…hopefully, catapult other African-American ballplayers to want to play the game," Bradley told ESPN.

The 2016 American League All-Star is not ruling out a return to the major leagues, but is also happy with where things stand in regard to his professional career.

"If there's an opportunity to go back, I would obviously weigh that," Bradley added. "If that's for my family, then I'm not going to rule out any opportunities. But it's not something I'm striving for. I'm very content with how my career has unfolded. I've been truly blessed. I'm just enjoying the moment."

كشف نادي برشلونة منذ لحظات، عن تفاصيل إصابة لاعبه داني أولمو والتي تعرض لها خلال مباراة البلوجرانا ضد أتلتيكو مدريد بالدوري الإسباني.

أولمو تعرض إلى إصابة قوية خلال مباراة برشلونة ضد أتلتيكو مدريد، في قمة منافسات الجولة الـ15 من عمر الدوري الإسباني للدرجة الأولى، والتي فاز بها البارسا 3-1.

واستطاع أولمو تسجيل هدف برشلونة الثاني، لكن الدولي الإسباني سقط على كتفه مباشرًة ليخرج بعد هذا الهدف مصابًا.

وأكد برشلونة في بيان عبر حسابه الرسمي في “تويتر”، أن أولمو يعاني من خلع في كتفه الأيسر، وتعرض لهذه الإصابة في لقاء الأمس ضد أتلتيكو مدريد.

وأشار برشلونة، إلى أن أولمو سوف يخضع إلى علاج طبيعي خلال الفترة المقبلة، بناءً على نتيجة الفحوصات، في حين سوف تستمر هذه الإصابة لمدة شهر.

ويمثل غياب أولمو ضربة موجعة بالنسبة لبرشلونة، حيث لا يوجد لاعب الآن يستطيع اللعب في مركز صانع الألعاب بشكل صريح الآن، في ظل إصابة فيرمين لوبيز كذلك.

ولن يستطيع أولمو المشاركة خلال مباراة برشلونة الأسبوع المقبل ضد ريال بيتيس، والتي ستكون صعبة على الفريق الكتالوني خصوصًا وأنها تقام خارج ملعبه.

ويعتبر أولمو لاعب سيئ الحظ بشكل كبير، حيث دخل اللاعب في سلسلة من الإصابات المتتالية مع برشلونة منعت المدرب هانز فليك من الاستفادة بابن الـ27 عامًا بشكل منتظم.

Two epic finishes in Chennai, one against Australia and one against England. Which one do you remember more fondly?

ESPNcricinfo staff18-May-2025Update: This poll has ended. The IND-AUS 2001 Chennai Test moves into the quarter-finals.

Harbhajan too good for Australia – Chennai, 2001

It was fitting that a series that had kept everyone on the edge of their seats ended in a thrilling last-day finish.After Matthew Hayden’s 203 had taken Australia to 391, India responded by racking up 501. Like he had in the first innings, Harbhajan Singh ripped through the Australia middle order in the second innings, as they ended the fourth day on 241 for 7, a lead of 131.On the fifth morning, Harbhajan wasted little time in picking up the last three Australia wickets, bundling them for 264. He returned second-innings figures of 8 for 84 and match figures of 15 for 127, finishing with 32 wickets for the series.But he wasn’t done.Chasing 155, India lost Shiv Sunder Das early, but Sadagoppan Ramesh and VVS Laxman added 58 to give India the advantage. But a middle-order collapse followed, and it was game on. But keeper Sameer Dighe, on Test debut, held his cool as he took India closer. India lost Zaheer Khan just four runs shy of a win, but Harbhajan sliced a Glenn McGrath delivery past point to give India a famous Test and series win.India’s chase to remember vs England – Chennai, 2008It was not a match India were supposed to win. For three days and two sessions at Chepauk, England were on top. India were staring at a target close to 400, when nothing above 300 had ever been chased before in the country (and the highest target chased at the venue was 155).But then the England bowlers came across a belligerent Virender Sehwag, who laid the platform for India to push for the win on the fifth day. Gautam Gambhir put in the grind at the top. And then Yuvraj Singh, with his Test credentials under the scanner, joined Sachin Tendulkar at the crease to take India over the line on a pitch with awkward bounce.Tendulkar applied the icing on the cake, hitting the winning runs while also bringing up a fine fourth-innings century. Only six higher totals have been chased in Test history than the 387 by India in Chennai, only two of which have come in Asia, and none in India. It was a win, as ESPNcricinfo’s Editor-in-Chief Sambit Bal noted at the time, forged by unwavering belief to go for the jugular and not just settle for a draw.
