Davis opened training camp on the active/non-football injury list due to an undisclosed issue, but he's since recovered and is now cleared to participate in practices and play in preseason games.

1h agoLove and the Packers have agreed to terms on a four-year extension worth $220 million, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The deal will make Love the highest-paid quarterback in NFL history after just one full season as Green Bay's starting quarterback. It also includes a record $75 million signing bonus, plus $155 million in new full guarantees, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. The team's star signal-caller has been at training camp but sitting out of practice until a deal was finalized.

Grayson Rodriguez BAL SPOrioles' Grayson Rodriguez: Goes five innings in no-decision
2m agoRodriguez didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Padres, allowing two runs on seven hits over five innings. He struck out two.
Rodriguez got off to a good start Friday, scattering five hits to blank San Diego through his first five innings. However, Luis Arraez would lead off the sixth with a single before Jurickson Profar launched a game-tying, two-run homer, forcing Baltimore to turn to the bullpen. It's just the second time in Rodriguez's last six starts that he failed to make it through six innings. Overall, the 24-year-old right-hander is 12-4 with a 3.82 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 122:33 K:BB across 19 starts this year. Rodriguez is currently slated to face the Blue Jays at home next week in his next outing.

Ben Lively CLE SPGuardians' Ben Lively: Gets back on winning track
7m agoLively (9-6) picked up the win Friday against the Phillies, allowing one run on three hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out six.
Lively was fantastic Friday, only giving up a solo home run to Bryson Stott en route to the win after back-to-back losses. Lively continues his remarkably consistent season, as he's gone at least five innings and allowed three runs or fewer in 16 of his 18 starts thus far in his breakout campaign. The 32-year-old will carry a 3.44 ERA into his next start, currently scheduled vs the Orioles.
-
Jurickson Profar SD LFPadres' Jurickson Profar: Cranks two more homers
10m agoProfar went 2-for-5 with a pair of two-run homers in Friday's 6-4 win over the Orioles.
Both of Profar's homers proved to be difference-makers in the two-run victory -- he got the Padres on the board in the fourth inning with a two-run shot off Grayson Rodriguez before putting San Diego ahead for good with his second long ball off Craig Kimbrel in the ninth. Profar has been on a tear of late, going 8-for-23 (.348) with four homers in his last five contests. His slash line is up to .301/.387/.493 through 104 games this season with 18 home runs, just two shy of a career high.
-
Javier Baez DET SSTigers' Javier Baez: Homers in consecutive games
18m agoBaez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 9-3 loss to the Twins.
Baez took Pablo Lopez deep in the third inning after providing all the Tigers offense in Thursday's win with a three-run blast. Baez has now homered in back-to-back games for the first time since 2023. Prior to these two homers, Baez had not gone deep since April 14 in what has been a rough year for him. The 31-year-old is hitting .179 with three homers and a .474 OPS through 65 games this season.
-
Matt Wallner MIN LFTwins' Matt Wallner: Second straight game with homer
21m agoWallner went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two runs scored and two walks in Friday's 9-3 win over the Tigers.
Wallner took Keider Montero deep in the second inning for one of four Twins homers on Friday. Wallner has now homered in back-to-back games for the third time in his career and second time this month. After struggling early and being sent down in April, Wallner was called back up in July and has four of his five homers over his last 12 games. The 26-year-old is hitting .353 since his recent call-up and should continue to get starts in the Twins outfield.
-
Trevor Larnach MIN DHTwins' Trevor Larnach: Smacks 11th homer
24m agoLarnach went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a strikeout in Friday's 9-3 win over the Tigers.
Larnach went back-to-back with Byron Buxton in the first inning, the seventh time the Twins hit consecutive homers this season. Larnach has three home runs in his last 11 games, but he just doesn't get enough playing time to be worth a roster spot. The 27-year-old is strictly a platoon player, as he only has eight at-bats vs lefties this season, but he's been solid on the positive side of that split with 11 homers and a .770 OPS vs right-handers.
-
Trey Jemison MEM CPelicans' Trey Jemison: Headed to New Orleans
5h agoThe Pelicans claimed Jemison off waivers Friday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.

-
E.J. Liddell ATL SFSuns' E.J. Liddell: Traded to Phoenix
6h agoThe Hawks are trading Liddell to the Suns in exchange for David Roddy on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
This is the second time Liddell gets traded in less than a month, as he was traded from New Orleans to Atlanta on June 26 as part of the deal that sent Dejounte Murray to the Pelicans. Liddell will compete for a depth frontcourt option for the Suns, but his chances of earning a meaningful role are very slim.
-
Dante Exum DAL SGMavericks' Dante Exum: Likely out Saturday
6h agoExum (finger) is expected to miss Saturday's game against Spain, Eurohoops.net reports.
Exum fractured part of his right index finger against France in an exhibition and will likely miss Australia's opening match of the Olympics on Saturday. He's also doubtful for Tuesday's matchup versus Canada. Exum has avoided surgery and is expected to suit up for Australia at some point, but even if he does play, he'll likely be limited.

This season, the 24-year-old guard is set to split time between the Spurs and their G League affiliate.

Rafael Harvey-Pinard MON LWCanadiens' Rafael Harvey-Pinard: Suffers broken leg
11h agoHarvey-Pinard suffered a broken leg that required surgery Thursday and will be sidelined for at least four months.
Harvey-Pinard will miss training camp and at least the first month of the season with the injury. The 25-year-old was slated to see bottom-six minutes in 2024-25 before suffering the broken leg. He will likely be replaced on the fourth unit by Joshua Roy. Harvey-Pinard had 14 goals and 20 points in 34 games during the 2022-23 campaign, but he slumped last season, scoring only twice while adding eight assists in 45 regular-season appearances.

Thomas Bordeleau SJ C
Sharks' Thomas Bordeleau: Inks two-way deal
1d agoBordeleau signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Sharks on Thursday, per PuckPedia.
Bordeleau's contract matches his qualifying offer, so he'll come with a $874,125 cap hit if he plays in the NHL. The 22-year-old had six goals and 11 points in 27 contests with the Sharks in 2023-24. He also provided 11 goals and 25 points across 35 outings with AHL San Jose.

Oliver Wahlstrom NYI RWIslanders' Oliver Wahlstrom: Signs one-year contract
1d agoWahlstrom penned a one-year contract with the Islanders on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Wahlstrom and the Islanders avoided arbitration, agreeing to the one-year deal. Wahlstrom has been a huge disappointment since he was drafted 11th overall in 2018. He managed to score just a pair of goals and six points in 32 regular-season games in 2023-24, as he was a healthy scratch in 24 consecutive games, before seeing action in the regular-season finale versus Pittsburgh. Wahlstrom is expected to see bottom-six minutes in 2024-25, which will hamper his fantasy value.
-
Travis Konecny PHI CFlyers' Travis Konecny: Signs eight-year extension
1d agoKonecny signed an eight-year, $70 million contract extension with the Flyers on Thursday.
The deal will begin in the 2025-26 season as Konecny has one more year at $5.5 million on the six-year deal he signed with the Flyers in September of 2019. Konecny had 33 goals and 68 points in 76 regular-season appearances last season -- both career highs. The 27-year-old will see first-line time, as well as first-unit power-play action in 2024-25, and could hit the 35-goal and 75-point mark, if he manages to remain healthy.
