On Saturday night, the Toronto Argonauts trounced the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 31–17 thanks to two touchdown passes from Nick Arbuckle and six field goals from Lirim Hajrullahu . For the first time in four home games, Toronto (2-5) won.

Chris Streveler, however, helped him by moving under centre, making Collaros, sit in the sidelines. Live Events The reason for Collaros's departure was not immediately provided. He also returned to practise with the Bombers after suffering a neck injury that forced him to leave last week's 41–20 loss to Calgary. Princess Auto Stadium will host the rematch between the two clubs on Friday night. Streveler passed for 148 yards and a touchdown on 11 of 18 plays. The other touchdown for Toronto came from DaVaris Daniels. Hajrullahu had a convert as well. Winnipeg's touchdowns were scored by James Vaughters and Jerreth Sterns. Sergio Castillo kicked a field goal and two conversions. At 6:16 of the fourth, Hajrullahu made a 36-yard field goal to give Toronto a 31–17 lead.

Trey Vaval fumbled on a punt return, and Brandon Calver recovered it, setting it up. Toronto's lead was reduced to 6-3 at 8:16 by Castillo's 39-yard field goal. At 3:23, Arbuckle's 33-yard touchdown pass to Coxie gave the Argos the lead. The four-play, 81-yard drive began with a 41-yard completion to Coxie by receiver Janarion Grant.

Amed Rosario traded to Yankees from Nationals; what the ex-mets infielder brings to the Bronx

The New York Yankees have acquired veteran infielder Amed Rosario from the Washington Nationals in exchange for two prospects, pitcher Clayton Beeter and outfielder Browm Martinez. The trade, reported by YES Network, marks the Yankees' second infield addition this weekend following the acquisition of Ryan McMahon from the Colorado Rockies. Rosario, 29, played 47 games for Washington this season, posting a .270/.310/.426 slash line with five home runs, 18 RBIs, and one stolen base. Despite his struggles against right-handed pitchers and inconsistent defense, Rosario has improved his hitting this season, especially against left-handed pitching.

He also offers versatility, having played third base, second base, shortstop, and right field in 2025. This gives the Yankees additional flexibility amid roster challenges. Live Events CBS Sports recently ranked Rosario as the 30th-best trade candidate, citing his improved bat speed and isolated slugging as reasons he remains a valuable depth piece. Who the Yankees gave up Clayton Beeter, 26, has pitched in five major-league games and posted a 3.80 ERA across 21 minor-league outings this year. While he has strong strikeout potential, his control remains an issue, averaging seven walks per nine innings. Browm Martinez, 18, has impressed in the Dominican Summer League with a .404/.507/.632 lines in 18 games. However, Baseball America does not currently rank him among the Yankees' top 30 prospects. The Yankees continue to shuffle their roster amid a rough stretch. Saturday's loss to the Phillies dropped their record to 56-48, placing them 6½ games behind the AL East-leading Blue Jays. The team also placed star outfielder Aaron Judge on the injured list due to a strained flexor.

Ty France went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI for Minnesota. Royce Lewis finished 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI. Nationals left-hander Mitchell Parker (7-10) held the Twins to two runs on eight hits in 5 2/3 innings. He walked one and struck out four. Twins right-hander Joe Ryan (10-5) allowed five runs (four earned) on six hits in five innings. He issued one walk and fanned five. Millas helped to start the scoring for the Nationals in the third.

He was injured when a pitch hit him in the finger while he was trying to bunt, and Call replaced him in the top of the third.
