The Los Angeles Dodgers, after they claimed catcher Ben Roverdt , have made the surprise move to designate Anthony Banda for assignment. Banda has been one of the more beloved Dodgers among fans and teammates for the energy and fun he brings. However, with the addition of the catcher, the Dodgers needed to move on from one of their left-handed relievers, and Banda was the man who would need to make way. Over the offseason, Banda was awarded $1.625 million in arbitration , though that cost will be passed on to whoever ends up signing him.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. ― The closing stretch at TPC Scottsdale for the WM Phoenix Open is strong, but danger lurks around many corners. The short par-5 15th sets the stage for the infamous par-3 16th. The driveable par-4 17th many years decides the tournament and then the par-4 18th brings it all home. Golfers know they have to score on those holes, but three of the four featured some form of water serving as a troublemaker. The 15th has a lake down the entire left side and then a ring of water that mostly encircles the green. The 16th is the lone hole of these closing four without water. The 17th has a sliver of a lake to the left of the green and then anything long rolls down into water. The 18th also has water down the left side, but few PGA Tour pros ever find the wet stuff there. How many golf balls have been hit into the water at WM Phoenix Open? The number is 4,165 at TPC Scottsdale’s Stadium Course since 2003, and that accounts for the fifth-most of any course on the PGA Tour...

Millions of people will be tuning in to watch the Seattle Seahawks face the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX on Sunday night . Sean McVay might not be one of them. McVay wishes he and the Los Angeles Rams were preparing to play the Patriots this week. He believes they were good enough to win it all this year, but they came up short in the NFC Championship Game – which is why the Rams coach may not watch the decisive game of the 2025 season. He said on Monday that he doesn’t know if he can stomach watching the Super Bowl after suffering what he says was probably the most painful loss of his career against Seattle just over a week ago. Sean McVay says he usually watches the Super Bowl, but this year: "I don't know. I might punish myself. That game the other day probably hurt more than any loss I've ever been a part of & it's because of the love for the team. So I don't know that I'll be tuning in for this one." — Greg Beacham (@gregbeacham) F...
