Yankees’ Chris Gittens lands on IL after fluke bat injury
NY Post
BOSTON — Chris Gittens became the latest Yankee to go down with an injury, landing on the IL on Sunday with a sprained right ankle.
The first baseman suffered the injury when he tripped over his bat in Saturday’s win over the Red Sox at Fenway Park. The move opened up a roster spot for the return of Gio Urshela, who was in the lineup Sunday at third base, as he comes back from the COVID-19 IL.
It was a history-making week that changed very little in the NFL hierarchy.
The Rangers do not play again until Friday when the Penguins come to the Garden, but the next three days will be the most critical of a season that is fast becoming a sinkhole.
During my vacation the past few weeks, a plugged-in agent told me it was his sense that the Mets were not playing at the top of the starting pitching market for Corbin Burnes and Max Fried.
Amazingly, the Knicks haven’t faced an Eastern Conference opponent with a winning record since October.
You don’t need to be a fortune teller — just a Giants fan well-versed in Murphy’s Law — to see the future headline now.
The Jets dropped their third straight game and eighth in their last nine on Sunday, a 26-21 loss to the Seahawks that sends them to 3-9 this season.
Bills fans maybe had a little too much fun in the snow Sunday night as Buffalo defeated the 49ers, 35-10.
The Mets have identified their next starting pitching project.
The Knicks reached the three-quarter pole of the basketball season Sunday night, and if they wanted to celebrate the occasion, they couldn’t have asked for a better patsy. Right now, the poor Pelicans are everyone’s favorite Homecoming Game, Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram bedecked in sweaters and strapped to the injured list.
Christian McCaffrey left Sunday’s game with a knee injury after he suffered what appeared to be a non-contact injury and it may be the reason his 2024 season ends.
Perhaps one day this current stretch, or this season, will represent a changing of the guard within the Rangers.
