Nola underwent an MRI which showed a stress reaction in his right rib cage, manager Rob Thomson announced Tuesday, per Matt Gelb of The Athletic. Nola won't throw for at least two weeks and, at this rate, doesn't appear to be on track to return until after the All-Star break.

Yankees Facing Difficult Ben Rice Decision After Giancarlo Stanton Update
Yankees Facing Difficult Ben Rice Decision After Giancarlo Stanton Update originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The longer that All-Star designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton remained on the injured list, the longer that young slugger Ben Rice got to stay in the New York Yankees' lineup. Rice's run as the Yankees' starting DH is nearing its final weeks, however. Stanton is finally nearing a return to the majors after a prolonged battle with tennis elbow in both arms; the five-time All-Star begins a rehab assignment Tuesday at Double-A Somerset. While Rice has been an impressive breakout star in his first full season, not even a propensity for mammoth home runs stands to keep him in the lineup. Rice enters Tuesday hitting .241 with 12 homers, 25 RBI, and a .825 OPS through 218 plate appearances. Rice ranks 34th among all qualified hitters in OPS, and his .497 slugging percentage is 24th in the league. Most teams would kill for production like that, but most teams aren't the Yankees. Stanton's contract all but guarantees him a spot as the Yankees' DH, and Paul Goldschmidt is enjoying an All-Star-caliber season at first base. That doesn't leave many at-bats for Rice, especially because the Yankees remain committed to Austin Wells at catcher. SNY's Andy Martino recently dismissed the idea the Yankees should demote Rice to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre so he can get regular at-bats. Martino instead proposed the Yankees work to play Stanton, Rice, and Goldschmidt at least two out of every three games. Martino also reported that the Yankees do not intend to play Rice anywhere but at catcher, first base, or designated hitter. "Rice is closer to gracing the cover of 'MLB: The Show' than he is to earning a trip to Scranton," Martino wrote. Either way, the Yankees find themselves in a difficult situation, one where there are too many hitters with too few at-bats to go around. It's better than the alternative, as teams like the Colorado Rockies and Miami Marlins know all too well. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 10, 2025, where it first appeared.

Bryson DeChambeau 'Inspired by Scottie Scheffler,' Looks to Repeat
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. This week, the golf world's attention is zeroing in on Oakmont Country Club for one of the most anticipated events of the year, the 125th U.S. Open. Known for chewing up even the steadiest of players, this championship is golf's ultimate test. Last year, it was LIV Golf's Bryson DeChambeau who hoisted the trophy for the second time. Now, he's coming back to own the moment once again. He is especially motivated mostly after two major disappointments.

(Photo by) More Getty Images His first heartbreak came at Augusta when he faded away from Rory McIlroy that final Sunday. The PGA Championship, too, was no different story. DeChambeau finished at T2, but five strokes back of Scottie Scheffler. In a candid moment ahead of his U.S. Open title defense, Bryson revealed the name that's been pushing him lately. "I would say that the biggest influence career is Ben Hogan, Greg Norman and Tiger Woods," he said. "Tiger Woods pushed the boundaries on what we thought was possible with golf. As time goes on, Scottie Scheffler is an inspiration as well in terms of how well he's playing. "I want to play to that level and inspire to play to that level as well." It's not every day that a reigning U.S. Open champion tips his cap to a rival, but Scheffler's dominance has made it hard to ignore. Scheffler won the 2024 Masters at 10-under, earning his second green jacket. Then, he captured his third major title at this year's PGA Championship, running away from the field during the final round. He level of consistency is something to marvel at. Scheffler has been ranked No. 1 in the world for 107 consecutive weeks. That is the longest stretch since prime Tiger Woods. His consistency, especially under pressure, has made him the man to beat at Oakmont. More Golf: Collin Morikawa Shows Stones with Bold U.S. Open Proclamation
