Kyler Gordon's 2025 season never really got off the ground. Injuries limited him to just five appearances between the regular season and playoffs. It was a frustrating development for a player expected to anchor the secondary, especially with his three-year, $40 million extension set to kick in beginning in 2026. Kyler Gordon's 2025 Snapshot Instead of building on his trajectory, Gordon spent most of the year rehabbing, leaving questions about durability hanging over what was supposed to be a stabilizing season.
It's the second stint with the Dodgers for the 31-year-old Almonte. He was with Los Angeles in 2022-23, combining for 83 1/3 innings with a 3.35 ERA, 23.9% strikeout rate and 11.9% walk rate out of manager Dave Roberts' bullpen. That production came in quite uneven fashion, however; Almonte delivered 35 1/3 innings of immaculate 1.02 ERA ball in 2022 but was roughed up for a 5.06 mark in 48 innings in 2023.
As they write, the Serbian has suffered a 'high-impact direct trauma', due to the tackle from Ignace Van der Brempt, who did not even get booked... The defender has been left with a 'large hematoma of the soft tissue and edematous-hemorrhagic imbibition of the fibular bone without interruption of the cortex'.

Barcelona stars Marcus Rashford and Raphinha both missed training on Wednesday as Hansi Flick's side continued preparations for tomorrow's Copa del Rey semi-final against Atletico Madrid. Raphinha is still yet to resume first-team training after being diagnosed with an overload and has admitted this week that that he's "better, but not 100%" yet.

Even if we sign a player and he's not even playing for us he gets injured. Sometimes it feels like that but the moment you start to feel it's all bad luck, it probably comes to you as well so we should keep it away as much as possible and focus on the performance and what we can do to improve it.
Pascal Struijk will definitely miss this game; he has problems with his hip flexor. [Anton] Stach will be back, probably just for the [Aston] Villa game. Apart from this, I hope to have everyone available. You miss a player with red-hot form. Pascal was a rock in the last weeks. He is the only left-footed centre-back. If you play with three at the back, it makes a difference. A right-footed player has different passing angles.
