The New York Yankees walked away with a gritty 1–0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night, leaning heavily on a vintage performance from left-handed starter Carlos Rodon and a bullpen that slammed the door shut. It was the kind of tight, low-scoring game that demanded every pitch be executed and every at-bat approached with purpose—and the Yankees delivered just enough to come out on top.

The New York Giants might be quietly gearing up to pull off a calculated swing at the quarterback position—one that wouldn’t cost them the third overall pick, but still gives head coach Brian Daboll a developmental talent with explosive upside. Conceptually, the Giants could explore trading back into the first round to land Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe, a dynamic athlete with raw tools and star potential if molded correctly.

There’s something about Yankees‘ Ben Rice that just feels different. The lefty slugger hasn’t just flashed promise—he’s putting together one of the most electric starts to a rookie season in recent Yankees memory. After another stellar performance in Thursday’s 6–3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays, Rice is rapidly evolving from intriguing prospect to lineup cornerstone. Rice went 4-for-5 with two RBIs in the win, raising his slash line to a jaw-dropping .317/.414/.650.

For weeks, the Yankees kept things quiet regarding Giancarlo Stanton’s recovery timeline. But on Thursday night, fans finally got some clarity. According to Bob Klapisch of the Newark Star-Ledger, the Yankees are targeting early June for Stanton’s return to the lineup. It’s a slow build back for the 35-year-old slugger, who’s dealt with elbow issues and a long list of leg injuries over the years.

Every now and then, a young prospect does more than just turn heads—he makes the front office start rearranging the long-term depth chart. That’s exactly what George Lombard Jr. is doing for the New York Yankees right now. The 19-year-old infielder is carving up High-A pitching and showing signs that he might be more than just a name to remember—he could be the real deal.

Brian Burns and Abdul Carter give the Giants an IDENTITY on defense. Not to mention Dexter Lawrence, they'd have one of the most dominant defensive fronts in the sport. I want Hunter but I'm super happy with Carter as well.
Penn St. edge rusher Abdul Carter had breakfast Sunday in State College, Pa., with New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll. Carter also is now scheduled to visit the Giants on Thursday in New Jersey, and he figures to be a top-3 pick. https://t.co/cTvCwW7lSs

If the Browns end up taking Travis Hunter, I'm so down for a defensive line that looks like Brian Burns, Dexter Lawrence, and Abdul Carter. The upside there can't even be fathomed.
