49ers scramble for DT depth after Collins injury ahead of Rams

The 49ers must replace seasonal-ending knee injury to defensive tackle Alfred Collins just before Week 1 vs. the Rams, with under 48 hours to respond. Since the team is in Melbourne, a late outside addition is unlikely, so San Francisco is leaning toward promoting from the practice squad in Australia, led by DL Kevin Givens as the likeliest call-up. Sebastian Valdez and Vincent Anthony Jr. are backups in consideration, but Valdez has no NFL regular-season snaps and Anthony is still developmental. Givens would supply immediate rotational depth, while Collins heads to IR as the team searches for a longer-term fix.

D-backs Activate Ketel Marte as Playoff Push Advances

Arizona activated Ketel Marte from the injured list and optioned rookie Jose Fernandez to Triple-A Reno to clear a roster spot, returning Marte amid a controversial stretch as the Diamondbacks chase an NL Wild Card; Marte bats fourth in the lineup, and Arizona emphasizes a focus on winning as they head into a key series against the Phillies, with Marte’s 10/5 rights and past absences likely shaping the conversation around his role and value.

Giants acquire Ravens' DL Okoye for 2028 seventh-round pick

The New York Giants reportedly added defensive lineman C.J. Okoye from the Baltimore Ravens in exchange for a 2028 seventh-round pick. Okoye, who came to the NFL through the International Pathway program, spent 2023-24 with the Chargers’ practice squad, joined Baltimore last season and appeared in 15 games with 15 tackles and a pass breakup. The trade helps the Ravens trim their roster to the 53-player limit ahead of the deadline, while giving the Giants another option as they finalize cuts.

Tigers DFA Granillo to Make Room for Max Clark

The Detroit Tigers designated right-hander Andre Granillo for assignment to open a 40-man roster spot for outfielder Max Clark, while Matt Vierling was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left adductor strain. Granillo, recently claimed off waivers from Washington, has limited major league experience and is expected to clear waivers (or possibly be traded) before the August 3 deadline; if he clears, he could remain in a non-roster capacity with Detroit.

Rangers bet on versatility, signing Nicky Lopez and DFAing McCutchen

The Texas Rangers signed infielder Nicky Lopez to a one-year deal and designated outfielder/DH Andrew McCutchen for assignment, a roster reshuffle built around Lopez’s defensive flexibility while McCutchen’s rough hitting earned him a DFA; the move could open playing time for Justin Foscue at DH/1B, but it also raises questions about potential continued absences of Corey Seager or Josh Smith.
