Dodgers, vet OF David Peralta agree to 1-year deal

The Los Angeles Dodgers and veteran outfielder David Peralta have agreed to terms on a one-year, $6.5 million contract, sources told ESPN on Friday. The deal, which is pending the completion of a physical examination, brings incentives that could increase the value to as much as $8 million. Peralta, 35, gives the Dodgers an experienced left-handed hitter who can split time with the right-handed-hitting Chris Taylor and Trayce Thompson in left and center field. Peralta has some experience in center field but has spent the vast majority of his nine-year career in left. Looking for the best online betting site and Live betting? Visit Heritage Sports!

Suns acquiring Kevin Durant in blockbuster deal with Nets

After three-plus tumultuous years and a second trade request in eight months, All-NBA forward Kevin Durant was traded from the Brooklyn Nets to the Phoenix Suns for a package that involves dynamic forward Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and four unprotected future first-round picks, sources told ESPN on Wednesday night. In a deal that landed in the late-night hours ahead of Thursday’s 3 p.m. ET trade deadline, Durant and T.J. Warren were shuttled to the Suns for a massive haul of first-round draft picks (2023, 2025, 2027 and 2029) and a 2028 pick swap, sources said. Talks had progressed and stalled, and the Suns appeared to be pivoting toward a three-way […]

Jon Berti, Marlins avoid arbitration with $2.125M deal

Jon Berti reached an agreement Monday with the Miami Marlins for $2,125,000 that avoided an arbitration hearing. Berti, an infielder and outfielder, gets a $2.1 million salary this year under an agreement reached before the scheduled start of Monday’s hearing. The deal involves a $3.5 million team option for 2024 with a $25,000 buyout, and the option price could escalate by $625,000 based on plate appearances this year: $125,000 each for 400, 450, 500, 525 and 550. Berti hit .240 with four homers, 28 RBIs and a major-league-leading 41 stolen bases last season. He played second base, shortstop, third, left field and center. […]

Fernando Tatis Jr. set to rejoin Padres after missed season

Fernando Tatis Jr. spent his Friday out in the community, visiting children at a local elementary school and spending time with members of the United States Marine Corps as part of the San Diego Padres’ goodwill tour throughout the city. The following morning, he was back inside Petco Park, taking part in a fan fest event that was attended by tens of thousands of the team’s most ardent supporters, signing autographs, snapping selfies and making the media rounds. After an entire season away — and with the cloud of a steroid suspension still hanging overhead — Tatis was back, once again a […]

Stephen Curry (leg) expected out through All-Star break

Stephen Curry is expected to be out through the All-Star break in mid-February with a left leg injury, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. The Warriors are expected to have a better understanding on the timeline for a return in the coming days, sources said. Curry was injured with 2:01 left in the third quarter of Saturday night’s victory over the Mavericks after his left knee collided with Dallas guard McKinley Wright IV’s knee while Curry was defending him.

Royals, Zack Greinke finalize $8.5M deal for 2023 season

The Kansas City Royals concluded Zack Greinke’s $8.5 million contract for the upcoming season on Friday, bringing back a well-known and veteran arm to their otherwise young starting rotation. The deal for the 39-year-old right-hander includes up to $7.5 million in performance bonuses. He made $13 million with the Royals last season, when he went 3-9 with a 3.68 ERA while allowing two runs or fewer in 17 of 26 starts. Greinke started his career in Kansas City as a first-round pick in the 2002 amateur draft. And after fits and starts, and nearly walking away from baseball early in his professional […]

Markkanen, Conley power Jazz to 131-128 win over Raptors

Lauri Markkanen had 28 points and 13 rebounds and Mike Conley added a three-point play and two clutch free throws in the closing minutes to lift the Utah Jazz to a 131-128 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night. “Taking my time, having a little more patience, not just going right away and being a little bit stronger with the ball,” said Markkanen of finishing strong versus the physical Raptors after a slow start. Toronto’s Fred VanVleet had his second career triple-double with 34 points, a career-best 12 rebounds and 10 assists, but the Jazz overcame that effort by shooting 53% and making key play after key play […]

James has triple-double, leads Lakers past Knicks in OT

LeBron James will soon be the NBA’s top scorer, though that was never his focus. He’s also one of the game’s leading passers, and combining the two — possibly better than anyone ever — is what really makes him proud. “I didn’t get to this point in my career by thinking about records or how many points I have, whatever the case might be,” James said. “I just play the game the right way. I approach the game every night only trying to be a triple threat by scoring, rebounding, assisting, defending, and may the chips fall where they may.” James […]

Mets, batting champ Jeff McNeil reach $50M extension

National League batting champion Jeff McNeil and the New York Mets agreed Friday to a four-year, $50 million contract extension, sources familiar with the deal told ESPN, ensuring one of the team’s core players will stay in Queens as the Mets look to win their first World Series since 1986. McNeil, who turns 31 a week after Opening Day, was arranged to go to an arbitration trial with the Mets, where he was requesting $7.75 million and they offered $6.25 million. Instead, the gap spurred conversations about keeping McNeil past his remaining two years of arbitration that landed on buying out multiple free agent […]

Orioles acquire Cole Irvin in trade with Athletics

The Baltimore Orioles obtained left-hander Cole Irvin from the Oakland Athletics on Thursday, bolstering their rotation as they look to take a step forward in the ultra competitive American League East. Irvin, who turns 29 this week, emerged as a reliable innings eater over the past two seasons, throwing 359⅓ innings at a 4.11 ERA after the A’s acquired him from Philadelphia for $100,000. Baltimore used its substantial middle-infield depth in the deal, sending 21-year-old Darell Hernaiz to Oakland. The Orioles also received 24-year-old minor league right-hander Kyle Virbitsky as part of the trade. Baltimore took a significant leap forward last year, finishing 83-79 a year after […]
