Rams re-sign CB Derion Kendrick
June 17 - The Los Angeles Rams on Tuesday re-signed cornerback Derion Kendrick, who missed all of the 2024 season due to a torn ACL and had been waived just last week.
Kendrick, 24, sustained the injury in practice in July 2024 and was on injured reserve last season.
He played in 17 regular-season games in 2023 and started 12, making 49 tackles with three tackles for loss, one interception and 10 passes defended. In two seasons (2022-23), he has a total of 92 tackles and 14 passes defended in 32 games (18 starts).
The Rams selected Kendrick in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of Georgia, where he played after starting his college career at Clemson.

White Sox reinstate Lenyn Sosa from IL, option Brooks Baldwin
June 17 - The Chicago White Sox welcomed back infielder Lenyn Sosa on Tuesday after he missed two weeks on the injured list with a right hip flexor strain. The White Sox optioned utility player Brooks Baldwin to Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. Sosa, 25, was primarily Chicago's starting second baseman before going on the IL June 4. On Tuesday against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals, however, Sosa will man first base while batting seventh in the order. Sosa was batting .274 with four home runs and 17 RBIs in 57 games to begin the season. On a three-game rehab stint at Charlotte, he went 1-for-10 with a double and four strikeouts. Baldwin, 24, was in his second major league season and made starts at second base, third base, shortstop and all three outfield spots this year through just 47 games. He batted .211 with three homers and 16 RBIs. The White Sox also announced that left-handed reliever Fraser Ellard -- on the IL since May 4 but transferred to the 60-day list June 8 with a left lat strain -- would begin an injury rehab assignment at Charlotte. --Field Level Media
