Tigers claim Grant Holman off waivers to bolster bullpen depth

Detroit claimed right-hander Grant Holman off waivers from the Dodgers and optioned him to the Florida Coast League, while Trey Sweeney was moved to the 60-day injured list to clear 40-man space. Holman, who debuted in 2024 and owns a 4.66 ERA in 38 2/3 MLB innings across 40 games, has two minor-league option years remaining and battled rotator cuff tendinitis in 2025, giving Detroit another flexible bullpen arm as it pursues its pitching-chaos approach.

Pirates Move Valdez to Triple-A as Infield Logjam Intensifies

The Pirates outrighted Enmanuel Valdez to Triple-A Indianapolis after he cleared waivers following a designation for assignment, as infield depth solidifies with Spencer Horwitz at first and Konnor Griffin at short; Valdez will remain in Indianapolis and could pursue minor league free agency at season’s end if not added back to the 40-man roster.

NCAA Eyes Five-Year Eligibility with Age Cap and Stricter Redshirt Rules

The Division I NCAA Cabinet is weighing a proposal to grant student-athletes five full years of eligibility, starting from their 19th birthday or high school graduation, whichever comes first, with a hard age limit and strict redshirt/waiver restrictions limited to a small group of outliers (maternity leave, military service, religious missions). If approved, the rule could roll out as soon as fall 2026 in phases, and would seek to protect current players while addressing past waiver use and related political discussions around extending eligibility.

EPA Expands E15 Access and Ditches Boutique Fuels to Stabilize Summer Gas Prices

The EPA, in coordination with the DOE and under the Clean Air Act, issued a temporary emergency waiver to allow nationwide sale of E15 and to remove state boutique fuel rules for E10, effective May 1–20, 2026, to bolster the U.S. fuel supply and reduce pump prices ahead of summer. The move relaxes low-volatility and blending limits and sets a nationwide 10 psi Reid Vapor Pressure standard, with E15 already available at about 3,000 stations. Officials say the action increases consumer choice and domestic energy independence while environmental protections remain intact, and the EPA may extend the waivers if conditions warrant.

US eases sea-borne Iranian oil sanctions to ease global energy squeeze

The Trump administration granted a 30-day waiver allowing the purchase of Iranian oil loaded at sea to relieve global energy-supply pressures amid the US-Israel war on Iran, marking the third temporary relief in about two weeks. Officials say roughly 140 million barrels already in transit will reach markets to help stabilize prices, while critics warn it could bolster Tehran’s war effort; supporters insist the policy is strictly limited to oil in transit and does not enable new purchases or revenue access for Iran.

Trump weighs temporary Jones Act waiver to cool oil prices

The Trump administration is reportedly considering a 30-day waiver of the Jones Act to allow foreign-flagged tankers to move cargo between US ports and help refineries amid oil prices above $100 a barrel, aligning with other moves like coordinated SPR releases with G7/IEA. The Jones Act keeps domestic shipments to US-built/owned/flagged vessels, so waivers could cut costs but are politically sensitive due to maritime unions; previous waivers occurred in 2021 and 2022.

Oilers waive Mangiapane to clear cap space ahead of deadline

With the trade deadline five days away, Edmonton placed forward Andrew Mangiapane and defenseman Alec Regula on waivers to gain roster and cap flexibility. Mangiapane, 29, has 14 points in 52 games and has been a poor fit for the Oilers, posting a team-worst -17 with unfavorable five-on-five metrics; his no-move clause limited trade options. If he clears waivers, Edmonton could stash him in the minors to save about $1.15 million of his $3.6 million cap hit. Teams such as the Maple Leafs have been linked to Mangiapane, while other players on waivers include Guillaume Brisebois, Robby Fabbri, and Luke Kunin.

Mets Bolster Catcher Depth by Claiming Ben Rortvedt

The Mets claimed catcher Ben Rortvedt off waivers from the Dodgers to add depth behind Francisco Alvarez and Luis Torrens, moving Dedniel Nunez to the 60-day IL to clear 40-man space. Rortvedt, a defensively solid catcher with major-league experience, could push Hayden Senger for a depth role, and his lack of remaining options means the Mets will need to manage the 40-man roster as spring training approaches.

Conley Poised to Return to Timberwolves After Waivers

Veteran guard Mike Conley plans to re-sign with the Minnesota Timberwolves after clearing waivers following a pair of trades this week, leveraging a loophole that allows a reunion with Minnesota while he can’t rejoin the Bulls. Minnesota has two open roster spots and could bring him back on a prorated minimum deal, valuing leadership even as his minutes and scoring have declined this season.

Nets pivot to asset-building, waive Cam Thomas to chase 2026 lottery talent

Brooklyn shifted from a quick-win mindset to an asset-building plan at the trade deadline, waiving Cam Thomas (and Tyrese Martin) and making several small moves to add young players (Ochai Agbaji, Hunter Tyson, Josh Minott), exchange seconds, and send cash to create cap space. They acquired six future picks (two firsts, four seconds) and ended up younger, more athletic, with a higher payroll and about $20 million in dead money this season. The strategy centers on developing talent and using cap space to pursue a generational 2026 draft pick rather than chasing immediate wins, with the aim of landing a top prospect in the lottery.【Sources summarize Nets trades and waivers as part of a long-term rebuild plan】

Dodgers Claim Siani, DFA Ibanez to Clear 40-Man Space

Los Angeles claimed outfielder Michael Siani off waivers from the Yankees and designated infielder Andy Ibanez for assignment to open a 40-man roster spot. Siani, a strong defender and baserunner with a remaining option, could finally carve out a spot on the Dodgers’ 40-man with spring training approaching. Ibanez, on a one-year major-league deal, is expected to clear waivers and be sent to Triple-A if unclaimed; as a major-league contract he cannot be traded without consent before June 15.
