Yankees Lose Star Pitcher for Summer Months After Injury Diagnosis
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. When the New York Yankees acquired former Milwaukee Brewers closer Devin Williams in the offseason, it was evident last season's closer Luke Weaver would be moved back to the setup role, a place he'd been in previous seasons. Due to Williams' struggles in the early part of the season, Weaver was moved back to the closer role and excelled. Williams will get a second opportunity in the closer role as Weaver is headed to the injured list with an apparent hamstring injury. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - MAY 31: Luke Weaver #30 of the New York Yankees pitches during an 18-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium on May 31, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - MAY 31: Luke Weaver #30 of the New York Yankees pitches during an 18-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium on May 31, 2025 in Los Angeles, MLB insider Jeff Passan reported late Monday night that Weaver would be headed to the injured list and expected to miss 4-6 weeks because of a hamstring injury. Passan reported the injury was suffered Sunday night when Weaver was warming up to enter New York's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Weaver has been phenomenal this season for the Yankees, as he's posted a 1.05 ERA, eight saves and 24 strikeouts in 24 appearances and 25 2/3 innings. He's allowed just three runs all year and was well on track to represent New York in this season's All-Star Game. Because of Weaver's injury, Williams will be placed back in the closer role and will look to turn his season around. He currently has a 6.23 ERA and has allowed 15 runs in 21 2/3 innings. Williams was one of the best closers in the league during his time in Milwaukee, as shown by his career 1.83 ERA and 68 saves with the Brewers. New York will need Williams to step up and perform at the level he is capable in hopes of staying atop the AL East and awaiting the return of Weaver for a postseason push in September and October.

New York and Minnesota still leading the way, both unbeaten heading into Commissioner's Cup play
NEW YORK — The New York Liberty and Minnesota Lynx picked up right where they left off last season when reaching the WNBA Finals. Both teams have gone undefeated through their first seven games this year with the Lynx set to host Phoenix in a Commissioner's Cup matchup. The Liberty and Lynx faced off last season in the in-season tournament final with Minnesota coming away with the victory. New York got revenge, winning the WNBA championship for the first time in franchise history. The two teams are each 7-0 this season, marking the latest that more than one franchise had been undefeated this long into the season since both the Lynx and Los Angeles Sparks started 2016 winning their first 11 games. New York has dominated its opponents so far, averaging 91.9 points a game, and winning by nearly 23 points a contest. That includes a 48-point victory over Connecticut, the second-largest margin of victory in WNBA history. Minnesota has been finding ways to win close contests. Before beating Golden State by 11, the Lynx had won their previous four games by a total of 18 points. The Lynx and Liberty won't play in the regular season for a few more months with their four matchups coming in the span of a few weeks — the first of which is on July 30.

Boston captain Hilary Knight tops list of unprotected players available to PWHL expansion teams
Boston Fleet captain and MVP candidate Hilary Knight heads a star-caliber list of players left unprotected by their respective teams in being made available to the PWHL's expansion franchises in Seattle and Vancouver. Among the other high-profile players left unprotected in a list released by the league on Tuesday were Minnesota's Kelly Pannek and Grace Zumwinkle, New York's Alex Carpenter, Ottawa captain Brianne Jenner and veteran defenseman Jocelyne Larocque and Toronto's Sarah Nurse. The release of the list opens the first part of the PWHL's two-phased roster-building process, which opens with a five-day exclusive signing window Wednesday. It will be followed by an expansion draft on Monday. Seattle and Vancouver can sign up to five players each, and will then fill out their remaining first 12 roster spots in the expansion draft. The wealth of talent being made available is a result of the PWHL placing an emphasis on ensuring its two newest teams can be competitive for the league's third season expected to open in November. The PWHL limited its six existing teams to protecting just three players, with the ability to add a fourth once they lose two players. All eight teams will then take part in the PWHL draft on June 24. Knight is coming off a stellar season in which she had 29 points (15 goals, 14 assists) to finish tied for the league lead with New York rookie Sarah Fillier. And it comes as Knight, who turns 36 in July, is winding down her international career upon announcing the 2026 Winter Games will be her fifth and final representing the United States. Knight intends to continue her PWHL career, and could be open to a move to the Pacific Northwest given she makes her offseason home in Idaho. Otherwise, the list of unprotected players include five of the six players selected in the first round of last year's draft in Ottawa's Danielle Serdachny, Minnesota's Claire Thompson, Boston's Hannah Bilka, Montreal's Cayla Barnes and Toronto's Julia Gosling. Both expansion teams will have numerous goaltending options, with New York's Corinne Schroeder, Minnesota's Nicole Hensley, Ottawa's Emerance Maschmeyer and Toronto's Kristen Campbell available. Boston protected goalie Aerin Frankel, defenseman Megan Keller and forward Alina Muller. The defending champion Frost protected captain Kendall Coyne Schofield, forward Taylor Heise and defenseman Lee Stecklein. New York protected Fillier and defensemen Ella Shelton and Micah Zandee-Hart. Montreal protected goalie Ann-Renée Desbiens and forwards Marie-Philip Poulin and Laura Stacey. Ottawa protected forward Emily Clark, goalie Gwyneth Philips and defenseman Ronja Savolainen. Toronto protected captain Blayre Turnbull, forward Daryl Watts and defenseman Renata Fast. ___
