PHILADELPHIA -- Jordan Romano says his right arm felt the best it had in a long time -- the two-time All-Star closer even hit 99.8 mph on a four-seam fastball. The Marlins just hit him -- rocked him, actually -- much, much harder. The Phillies' eight-inning rout turned close in the ninth once Romano was summoned to close out an 11-4 lead.

The Boston Red Sox on Saturday activated Liam Hendriks from the 15-day injured list, marking the right-hander's return to the majors for the first time in nearly two years. Hendriks, 36, sustained an elbow injury while pitching for the Chicago White Sox on June 9, 2023, that ultimately would require Tommy John surgery. He was making his fifth appearance of that season after undergoing treatment for Stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

RT @whitesox: The Chicago White Sox have agreed to terms with OF Travis Jankowski on a minor-league deal.
Cubs starter Justin Steele felt elbow discomfort in the middle of his last start. He pitched a couple more scoreless innings but still felt it the next day. He’s on the IL for what he thinks will be a minimum stay.
The Cubs offense is looking really good right now. They've scored 7 or more runs in 7 of their last 8 games including 10 tonight. Some of it being done in frigid weather. A healthy Dansby Swanson, armed with a torpedo (bat), is having a big night.
