The Mets and free agent infielder Bo Bichette are in agreement on a three-year contract, reports Will Sammon of The Athletic. He'll be guaranteed a hefty $126MM on that short-term pact, per Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Bichette can opt out after the first and second season of the contract, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic adds. There's no deferred money in the contract, which is still pending a physical.
"Records show that, on Dec. 23, 2025, Morant was listed as an executor of a trust that purchased a $3.2 million home," the report read. "The purchase came more than two weeks before sources confirmed that the Grizzlies were considering trading Morant. "The Commercial Appeal will not be listing the property address for safety reasons, but the home is approximately four miles, or about a 20-minute drive, from the arena where the Miami Heat play."
"I'm not setting myself any targets. As I said, I live in the here and now and I'm not thinking too much about it," Neuer reiterated in a December interview with Bundesliga.com, as captured by @iMiaSanMia. "I want to finish off this part of the season positively and then we'll go again in January and try to have a good start.
Trocheck's game has not deteriorated, though he did have somewhat of a down season following the 2024 postseason run. Trocheck's locker room presence also did not prove to help, as the team struggled to get on the same page, and Trocheck's nightly "we're doing all the right things" quotes enraged fans rather than comforting them. With a slightly improved team this season, Drury may want to hold onto his prized center.
A split has been in the cards for some time now. Thomas rejected a two-year, $30 million contract before turning down a one-year, $9.5 million deal that also included the waiving of his no-trade clause. A new contract would help further maximize Brooklyn's return. Instead, Thomas is on a one-year, $6 million deal that makes him a free agent this upcoming summer.
Pete Alonso is reportedly finalising a blockbuster $155million deal with the Baltimore Orioles. A five-time All-Star with the Mets, Alonso was unsurprisingly the subject of interest from a host of teams during the MLB Winter Meetings. But it is the Orioles, according to a report from ESPN's Jeff Passan, who have won the race to add him to their lineup, doing so a day after missing out on Philadelphia Phillies star Kyle Schwarber.
I think it's not a priority for Newcastle bringing in a striker right now. But, I think any club will have to be sitting up and taking notice of Thiago's superb form for Brentford this season. So, that's why he's been linked with some of these clubs but he's under contract until 2029. Brentford are under no pressure to sell him.
At this week's GM Meetings, Krall again downplayed the idea of trading a starting pitcher and was a bit more forceful with regard to Greene in particular ( link via Gordon Wittenmyer of the Cincinnati Enquirer). Krall still declined to speak in absolutes but came close when speaking about the possibility of trading Greene, specifically: "...[T]hat's a hard one to actually say, 'Hey, we're going to trade the guy that has a chance to be the ace of your staff and top-of-the-rotation guy going into the postseason.' We're looking to figure out how to get better, but right now that's not on the table."
With ice bags wrapped around both of his knees, and his feet submerged in an ice bath, Reaves looked up from his phone and turned to teammate Jarred Vanderbilt to present a simple, but perhaps illustrative, question. "What day is it?" he asked. No one could fault Reaves for losing his bearings. It had been a dream week in which he scored a career-high 51 points in a win in Sacramento; dropped 41 points in L.A. on the Portland Trail Blazers the next night; and then one-upped himself two days later with a 28-point, 16-assist masterpiece that was capped by the buzzer-beater.
SANTA CLARA Desperate for help at defensive end, the 49ers agreed Tuesday to take in Keion White, a New England Patriots 2023 draft flop. The 49ers are sending a 2026 sixth-round draft pick in exchange for White and a 2026 seventh-round pick, a league source confirmed. The deal, first reported by NFL Network, won't become official until White passes a physical. White (6-foot-5, 285 pounds) has no sacks and no quarterback hits through 123 snaps and five games this season.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Rico Dowdle remembers a time early in his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys when owner Jerry Jones didn't seem to remember his name. That won't be a problem next Sunday when the Cowboys come to Bank of America Stadium on the heels of Dowdle rushing for a career-high 206 yards to help the Carolina Panthers overcome a 17-0 deficit for a 27-24 victory against the Miami Dolphins.
But Pavel Zacha, drafted by the Devils sixth overall in 2015 as a centerman but has bounced between pivot and wing throughout his career, looks at his versatility more as a blessing than a curse. He just wants a little heads-up for what's expected of him. That has been the case for Zacha in his first three seasons as a Bruin.
On the ice, Rielly's role has quietly been reduced. Once the focal point of Toronto's offence from the back end, his power-play usage dipped below two minutes per game last season, representing a sharp contrast to his peak years. That drop in opportunity led to an eight-year low in offensive metrics nearly across the board. That, combined with a large contract and aging curve, raises questions about whether he still fits the Leafs' long-term direction,
