Man U suffer shock defeat at Astana

The Norwegian spared his senior players the 6,000-mile round-trip to Kazakhstan, took a squad packed with academy graduates and chose an XI with an average age of 22 years and 26 days – the youngest fielded in European competition. They took the lead through Jesse Lingard’s deflected strike in the 10th minute before Astana overturned the deficit in seven second-half minutes. Solskjaer, whose side had already qualified for the last 32, told MUTV: “I think some of these might benefit from going out on loan. Of course, they need men’s football and it was a first taste of it for […]

Saints lose Terron Armstead to ankle injury for Falcons matchup

The New Orleans Saints are going to be without starting left tackle Terron Armstead the next few weeks, including Thursday’s game versus the Atlanta Falcons. Armstead suffered a high-ankle sprain early in Sunday’s game with the Carolina Panthers, and he expressed disappointment in his latest injury on social media. But he was just as quick to thank fans for their continued support, and assure them that he’s working to return as soon as possible. “Thank you to everyone for the prayers and positivity,” Armstread wrote, “16 games was a goal of mine, so man it really hurts not being able to […]

Stephen Vogt agrees to 1 year deal with Diamondbacks

The Diamondbacks signed veteran catcher Stephen Vogt to a one-year deal with an option for a second season, a deal that gives them an offensive-minded, left-handed-hitting complement to frontline catcher Carson Kelly. Vogt, 35, is coming off a strong season with the San Francisco Giants, for whom he hit .263/.314/.490 with 10 homers while serving as Buster Posey’s backup. It was an impressive bounceback year for a player who feared his career was in jeopardy when he underwent shoulder surgery in 2018, missing that season entirely. Vogt’s deal guarantees him $3 million. It calls for a $2.5 million salary for […]

Nestor Cortes jr traded from Yankees to Mariners from signing bonus allocation

The New York Yankees announced Monday pitcher Nestor Cortes Jr. was traded to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for international signing bonus pool money. The left-hander ended 2019 with 5.67 ERA and 1.545 WHIP in 33 appearances last season, including one start. He also struck out 69 batters in 66.2 innings during his lone season in New York. The 24-year-old came up through the Yankees system but was selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the 2017 Rule 5 draft. He made four appearances in 2018, posting a 7.71 ERA, before being offered back to the Yankees a month into the season. Though Cortes has struggled at […]

Kemba Walker reported with sprained neck

Boston Celtics point guard Kemba Walker is doubtful to suit up when his team faces the Sacramento Kings on Monday, as he continues his recovery from a neck sprain. The ninth-year veteran is averaging 21.1 points, 4.7 assists and 4.6 rebounds per match in his first campaing with the team. Walker suffered a scary injury on Friday, Nov. 22, when his head collided with teammate Semi Ojeleye’s torso while going for a steal versus the Denver Nuggets. He was stretchered off the court and diagnosed with concussion-like symptoms postgame. Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said postgame that all of Walker’s scans came back with “positive results.” The ex-UConn star missed […]

Nikola Vucevic has ankle sprain, out 4 weeks at least

The Orlando Magic have struggled to open 2019-20 and will apparently be shorthanded moving forward. All-Star center Nikola Vucevic was diagnosed with a right lateral ankle sprain and will be re-evaluated in 7-10 days. Shams Charania of The Athletic reports that the injury should sideline Vucevic for a month. The Magic are currently 6-8, but are 0-5 on the road after falling to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night. Vucevic and forward Aaron Gordon both suffered right ankle injuries in the second quarter of Wednesday’s game. Vucevic used two crutches to leave the locker room afterward, while Gordon had one. Vucevic is […]

Lamar Jackson leads Patrick Mahomes in Pro bowl voting

Lamar Jackson currently does not have a peer when it comes to the NFL MVP race. Jackson is also peerless when it comes to fan voting for the 2020 NFL Pro Bowl. Jackson, the Ravens’ second year signal-caller, is leading the fan vote for this year’s Pro Bowl. According to an NFL press release, Jackson had already got 146,171 fan votes as of Wednesday evening, less than a week after fans could start voting for their favorite players. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was second with 116,325, with fellow quarterback — and league MVP candidate — Russell Wilson coming in third with 115,370 votes. Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (106,167 votes) and Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (100,218 votes) rounded […]

Nets´ Irving to miss third consecutive game with shoulder injury

Kyrie Irving missed Saturday’s Brooklyn Nets victory over the Chicago Bulls with a shoulder impingement, but he doesn’t appear to have improved enough for a return. After missing Monday night’s game versus the Indiana Pacers, the Nets announced that their star point guard would miss Wednesday’s game versus the Charlotte Hornets with that same injury, and while he isn’t projected to be out for too long, his continued absence is going to be a problem for Brooklyn. The Nets lost Caris LeVert to a thumb injury last week. Brooklyn is extremely dependent on just three players to create plays for them offensively. The combination of Irving, LeVert and Spencer Dinwiddie are responsible for over […]

Colts RB Marlon Mack has surgery on hand, out indefinitely

In the midst of a career season, Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack will miss an unspecified amount of time after suffering a fracture in his hand on Sunday versus the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Colts confirmed on Monday. It’s unclear at this point how much time Mack will miss. Colts coach Frank Reich said that Mack underwent surgery on Monday, but did not know of a timetable for his return. He is out for this Thursday’s game versus the Houston Texans, however Schefter reported that the injury is not thought to be season-ending. A fourth-round pick in 2017, Mack has played in all […]

Kings snap Celtics 10-game winning streak

The Boston Celtics were an unlucky bounce away from extending an historic start to their season. Instead, the Sacramento Kings walked away with a huge win. Buddy Hield scored a season-high 35 points, Richaun Holmes hit two free throws with 13.3 seconds remaining to give Sacramento the lead, and the Kings snapped the Celtics’ 10-game winning streak with a 100-99 victory Sunday. Marcus Smart had an oportunity to win it for Boston, but his runner in the lane bounced around the rim before trickling off as the buzzer sounded. ”The ball just felt like it sat on the rim forever,” Smart said. ”I thought it was going in.
