Ajay Mitchell is ruled out for Game 4 with a right calf strain, and Jalen Williams is questionable with a left hamstring as the Thunder battle the Spurs, forcing a deeper rotation and reliance on their bench to try to close the series.
Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story underwent sports-hernia surgery and is expected to miss roughly six to ten weeks, potentially until after the All-Star break, prompting a reshuffle of infield duties as Andruw Monasterio, Marcelo Mayer, and others vie to cover shortstop and related positions.
Trent Grisham is dealing with left knee discomfort and could be placed on the 10-day IL, with José Caballero returning from a finger fracture to fill in. Pinstripe Alley sketches a likely lineup if Grisham is out, featuring Ben Rice at DH, Aaron Judge in RF, Cody Bellinger in LF, Jazz Chisholm Jr. at 2B, José Caballero at 3B, Paul Goldschmidt at 1B, Anthony Volpe at SS, Austin Wells catching, and Spencer Jones in CF, acknowledging platoons and multiple iterations as Volpe cements his spot and Caballero returns.
Anaheim Ducks released their offseason injury report, noting Troy Terry’s chronic hip impingement with upcoming surgery, Cutter Gauthier’s transverse process fracture cleared to play, Ryan Poehling cleared of concussion symptoms after a late-season hit, Pavel Mintyukov with an MCL sprain and slated for training camp, Radko Gudas’ ankle sprain, and Drew Helleson’s groin strain with readiness for training camp.
With Cale Makar’s health uncertain for the Western Conference Finals, the Avalanche must lean on depth defensemen and a 20-man roster to carry the load as he weighs return versus possible surgery and a July contract extension; Bednar says there’s no clear update yet, but players like Devon Toews, Sam Malinski, Brent Kulak, and Brent Burns are stepping up to keep Colorado in the race for another Cup.

Braves catcher Drake Baldwin was diagnosed with a mild Grade 1 oblique strain and placed on the 10-day IL after a win against the Marlins. With Sean Murphy sidelined by a fractured finger, veteran catchers Sandy León and Chadwick Tromp will handle behind the plate for at least the next 10–14 days, while Baldwin’s exact IL duration remains unknown. Baldwin had been a standout contributor (2.2 fWAR, 13 HR, 160 wRC+) and was in contention for an All-Star berth before the injury.
Clay Holmes will not require surgery and isn’t expected to miss the season, though he’s on the injured list, potentially forcing Tobias Myers into the Mets’ rotation; Mendoza expects Holmes to pitch again in 2026. The Mets won 6-3 over the Yankees in the Subway Series opener, with Sunday’s rubber game set for 1:40 p.m. ET, and other notes include Luke Jackson opting out of his minor league deal and Soto dealing with aches but continuing to play.
Clay Holmes broke his right fibula on a 111 mph comebacker in the fourth inning of the Mets’ Subway Series opener, ending his night and placing him on the injured list; he allowed four earned runs in 4 1/3 innings. The Mets will reshuffle the rotation with Cam Schlittler’s 6 2/3 innings of one-run ball, while Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodón is set to start Saturday and David Peterson could work in bulk relief. The briefing also includes multiple injury updates and minor-league notes.
The Red Sox placed Trevor Story on the 10-day injured list with a groin issue, recalling Nick Sogard to replace him. Story has slumped to .206/.244/.303 with a 47 wRC+, -0.4 fWAR, and subpar defense this season, giving him time to rest and reset. In the meantime, Andruw Monasterio, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, or Sogard could see time at short, with Marcelo Mayer potentially shifting from second base to short if needed.
Mets pitcher Clay Holmes fractured his right fibula after being struck by a Spencer Jones line drive, forcing him out for a long stretch. Holmes stayed in to finish the inning and was removed after walking Jazz Chisholm Jr.; an X-ray confirmed the fracture. The injury deepens the Mets’ rotation depth issues as Senga and Manaea have injuries or inconsistencies, with minors like Jonah Tong and Jack Wenninger considered for depth and Francisco Alvarez the only player with a defined return timetable (about two months).
Mets right-hander Clay Holmes fractured his right fibula on a liner in the fourth inning of a 5-2 loss to the Yankees and will be out for a long time, likely prompting an injured list move. Holmes had a 2.39 ERA over 52 2/3 innings this season and relies on ground balls, making his absence a significant blow as the Mets cope with rotation injuries (Senga, Hagenman) and an underwhelming offense. With Holmes out, the Mets could lean on Nolan McLean, Peralta, and Christian Scott, or bring in Sean Manaea or No. 2 prospect Jonah Tong to help soak up innings.
