Rozier reportedly injured his ankle during an optional workout and will be listed as questionable for Game 2. However, Rozier fell out of the rotation in March and didn’t see the floor at all during either play-in game and Game 1 of this series. His status won’t impact Miami’s rotation or gameplan.

Correa suffered a collision with Byron Buxton in the field of play and he was unable to continue. It appeared that the two made head-to-head contact, but the Twins should announce exactly what the injury is before the conclusion of the contest with Baltimore. Buxton was able to continue.

Jankowski tweaked his groin during Wednesday’s game against the Blue Jays in Toronto, and the Rays won’t play short-handed. Somewhat conveniently, the Rays have activated Josh Lowe (oblique) off the injured list to take Jankowski’s place on the roster.

Lowe will hit leadoff against the Blue Jays on Thursday and operate as the designated hitter. The 27-year-old has been out since Opening Day with his oblique strain, and offers some considerable fantasy upside for those who play in leagues where Lowe is still available. Travis Jankowski was placed on the injured list with a left groin sprain to make room on the active roster for Lowe.

Matthews has been outstanding for Triple-A St. Paul this year with a 1.93 ERA and 38/9 K/BB ratio over seven starts and 32 innings. He struggled to a 6.69 ERA in his time with the Twins last year, but the 24-year-old has intriguing swing-and-miss stuff. He’s got some risk, but Matthews would offer some potential reward with it as a streaming option Sunday.

In other words, he mulled pulling an Elway. “Chicago is the place quarterbacks go to die,” were the words of Caleb’s father Carl to ESPN’s Seth Wickersham. Williams reportedly desired a trade to the Vikings, but he changed his mind after touring the Bears’ facility. “I can do it for this team,” Caleb reportedly told his dad. “I’m going to go to the Bears.” Williams acknowledged any attempt to force a trade would require going scorched earth on the Bears and city of Chicago, a process he did not have the stomach for. There have been zero reports of Bears/Williams drama since he made his peace with the idea, even after former coach Matt Eberflus’ clown show 2024 mistakes. It’s an interesting story, but one firmly planted in the past.

Kemp announced his retirement on social media. The 33-year-old was a nine-year MLB veteran with a career .237/.324/.351 slash line with 35 home runs and 53 steals in 739 games. He was a major part of the Oakland Athletics from 2021-2023, starting at least 124 games in each of those three seasons. He was also the team’s nominee for the Roberto Clemente Award for four consecutive years.
