The fourth-year corner from Utah missed Atlanta's final 13 games in 2025 due to a triceps issue, but it now appears he's moved past the injury. Phillips was one of the Falcons' top corners in 2024, recording 35 total tackles, five passes defensed, including one interception, and two forced fumbles across 16 regular-season appearances. Now fully healthy, he's expected to compete for a reserve role in the secondary as the offseason progresses.

Austin Riley ATL 3BBraves' Austin Riley: Three hits in Wednesday's nightcap
5m agoRiley went 4-for-9 with a double and an RBI across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Giants.
After banging out a double in the first game, a contest suspended from Tuesday due to inclement weather, Riley stayed productive with three singles in the nightcap. The veteran third baseman has yet to homer in June, however, with his power drought standing at 23 games during which he's slashed .208/.311/.286 with four RBI. Wednesday's performance was encouraging, but Riley has a long way to go to climb out of an early-season hole that has him sitting with a career-low .647 OPS and just eight long balls through 73 contests.

Marcelo Mayer BOS 2BRed Sox's Marcelo Mayer: Out of lineup Thursday
6m agoMayer is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Blue Jays.
Mayer started each of the previous five contests, but he'll get a breather during Thursday's afternoon tilt. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will occupy shortstop for the Red Sox.

Matt Olson ATL 1BBraves' Matt Olson: On base five times in twin bill
9m agoOlson went 4-for-8 with a walk and a run scored across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Giants.
All four knocks were singles, but it was still a productive twin bill for the first baseman. Olson extended his hitting streak to seven games in the process, and through 13 contests in June he's slashing .346/.375/.596 with a double, four homers, six RBI and 11 runs.
-
Drake Baldwin ATL CBraves' Drake Baldwin: Goes yard in return
12m agoBaldwin went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in a loss to the Giants during the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader.
The first-inning long ball off Adrian Houser was hit Tuesday, but the game wasn't actually completed until Wednesday due to inclement weather. Baldwin started at catcher in the contest, then went 1-for-5 with a run scored as the DH in the nightcap --although he did strike out in five of his plate appearances during the twin bill as he works to regain his timing after missing four weeks due to an oblique strain. Through 50 games this season, Baldwin's slashing .298/.381/.540 with 14 homers, 39 RBI and 41 runs.

Bryce Miller SEA SPMariners' Bryce Miller: Part of piggyback plan Friday
17m agoMariners general manager Justin Hollander said Tuesday that Miller will start Friday's game against the Red Sox and will be piggybacked by Luis Castillo, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.
Miller and Castillo both made standalone starts in their last two appearances as part of a six-man rotation, but the two will be deployed in tandem Friday while Seattle shifts back to a five-man setup. The Mariners previously used Miller and Castillo in a piggyback arrangement on three other occasions back in May, with Miller working between five and 5.2 innings in those contests while logging a 1.15 ERA and 0.57 WHIP. Expect Miller to handle a similar workload Friday, as Jude notes that the right-hander will be limited to around 75-to-80 pitches before turning the ball over to Castillo. Hollander relayed that all six of the team's starters will rotate through and have one piggyback outing until the All-Star break, so Miller and Castillo will likely be separated and make traditional starts when their turn in the pitching schedule comes up again next week.

Carson Whisenhunt SF PGiants' Carson Whisenhunt: Sent down after spot start
1h agoThe Giants optioned Whisenhunt to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.
Whisenhunt made a spot start Wednesday in Atlanta and picked up the win, allowing two runs over five frames. The left-hander will rejoin the rotation at Sacramento, where he's collected a 3.65 ERA and 77:30 K:BB over 69 innings this season. Whisenhunt could be the first name called when the Giants need another starter again.

-
Lindy Waters III SA SFSpurs' Lindy Waters: Limited role in 2025-26
4d agoWaters averaged 2.4 points, 0.7 rebounds and 0.5 assists across 7.1 minutes per tilt in 40 regular-season games during the 2025-26 campaign.
Waters didn't play in any of San Antonio's last six postseason games or log more than eight minutes in any of his nine playoff appearances.

The 35-year-old logged double-digit minutes in just 17 of his regular-season appearances, closing with several career-worst averages.

Michael Kesselring BUF DSharks' Michael Kesselring: Headed for West Coast
18h agoKesselring was traded to the Sharks from Buffalo on Wednesday, along with the 27th overall pick in the 2026 NHL Draft, in exchange for the No. 20 overall pick in 2026.
Kesselring was not going to get much in the way of ice time with the Sabres next year, given the team's logjam on the blue line. In San Jose, the 26-year-old defenseman should get a chance at a third-pairing role, especially if veterans Nick Leddy and John Klingberg walk in free agency.
-
William Karlsson LV CGolden Knights' William Karlsson: Undergoes wrist surgery
21h agoKarlsson will undergo surgery Wednesday for a broken wrist, per Jesse Granger of The Athletic.
Karlsson left Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals on Thursday due to the injury, and he didn't play in Game 6 on Sunday. He had three goals and nine points in 15 playoff appearances this year. The 33-year-old also recorded four goals and seven points in 14 regular-season outings, but he missed the bulk of the campaign because of a lower-body injury. It's the second straight year that Karlsson has missed a significant chunk of time -- he was limited to 53 regular-season games and 11 playoff outings in 2024-25.

2d agoAkhtyamov recorded a 24-save shutout in AHL Toronto's 1-0 win over Chicago in Game 3 of the Calder Cup Finals on Tuesday.
Akhtyamov has stood out in the playoffs with a 14-6 record, two shutouts, a 2.10 GAA and a .928 save percentage over 20 games. His effort Tuesday was a big one, giving the Marlies a 3-0 lead in the championship series. Akhtyamov will likely get the chance to close out the sweep in Game 4 on Thursday.

Isak Posch COL G
Predators' Isak Posch: Involved in trade
2d agoNashville acquired Posch and Ross Colton from Colorado on Tuesday in exchange for Magnus Chrona, a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick.
Posch posted a 15-8-5 record with a 2.78 GAA and an .891 save percentage over 28 regular-season appearances with AHL Colorado in 2025-26. He is under contract through the 2026-27 campaign, and he will probably spend most of the year in the minors.

Ross Colton COL CPredators' Ross Colton: Dealt to Music City
2d agoColton and Isak Posch were traded to Nashville from Colorado in exchange for Magnus Chrona, a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 third-round pick.
Colton will suit up for his former Central Division rival in the 2026-27 campaign following his move to the Predators. Earlier in June, Nashville named Chris MacFarland the team's new President of Hockey Operations, who spent four years in Colorado before taking his new gig. Across 73 regular-season games in 2025-26, Colton compiled nine goals, 15 assists, 153 shots on net, 159 hits and 25 blocked shots. He'll likely slot into a middle-six role for the Predators, who were in need of forward depth after another season where they missed the playoffs. Colton's toughness could help fill the hits gap that Michael McCarron left behind after Nashville traded their former alternate captain away at the 2026 trade deadline.

Taylor Gauthier PIT G
Penguins' Taylor Gauthier: Lands two-way deal

He also went 9-8 with a 2.23 GAA and a .922 save percentage during the 2026 Kelly Cup Playoffs. The 25-year-old will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2026-27 campaign in the minors.
