White Sox activate INF Chase Meidroth, designate INF Jacob Amaya for assignment
The 24-year-old Meidroth had been out since Aug. 7 with a bruised right thumb, which he sustained when he was hit by a pitch from the Phillies' Taijuan Walker. The injury slowed down what has been a solid rookie season for Meidroth, who is hitting .252 with three homers, 15 RBIs and 11 stolen bases in 84 games.

This key Rutgers transfer addition among 100 best players in college football, national outlet says
Rutgers has one of the top 100 players in college football. That is according to ESPN, which listed senior defensive end Eric O'Neill as the 84th-best player in the country ahead of the 2024 season. Here is the rationale behind the pick from ESPN's Paolo Uggetti: One of Rutgers' biggest additions in the offseason, O'Neill comes from James Madison after a standout campaign with the Dukes. The 6-3, 255-pound end was a force to be reckoned with and set the pace for a stingy JMU defense that led the nation in turnover margins last year." The Staten Island native transferred to Rutgers — a school he dreamed of playing for as an under-the-radar recruit at Paramus Catholic — after a standout career at the FCS and Group of Five levels. During his lone season with James Madison last year, the 6-foot-3, 250-pounder posted 58 quarterback pressures, 52 tackles, 18.5 tackles for loss (t-6th nationally), 13 sacks (fourth nationally), three pass breakups and an interception returned for a touchdown across 589 snaps in 13 games. O'Neill finished as the eighth-highest graded defensive end in Division I football this fall, per PFF. 'Really, really productive,' head coach Greg Schiano said of O'Neill in the spring. Rutgers will hope that he is the solution to its long-time lack of a pass rush. The Scarlet Knights mustered just 20 sacks in the 2024 season (t-94th nationally), averaging 1.7 sacks per game (t-91st nationally), and have not had a player with five sacks or more in a season since Julian Pinnix-Odrick in 2016 (5).

Kai Havertz injury: Arsenal forward to reportedly miss time with knee issue
Arsenal forward Kai Havertz is expected to miss time due to a knee injury, according to The Athletic. The 26-year-old wasn't present for a training session Wednesday and it's unclear how long the injury will keep him on the sideline. Arsenal is reportedly exploring the transfer market to cover for the injury, so the team may expect Havertz will miss games due to the issue. Havertz played in Sunday's 1-0 win over Manchester United, coming off the bench in the victory. It was his first Premier League appearance during the 2025-26 season. It marks the second time in 2025 Havertz has dealt with an injury. In February, he tore his hamstring during training camp, and needed surgery to correct the issue. During his recovery, Havertz worked himself into tremendous shape, causing Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to gush over Havertz's ability, per the Daily Mail. "You can see his presence and I think he destroyed all the metrics that we had in the gym for the last 10 years. All of them. Power, acceleration, muscle mass, the way that he has increased certain capacities in his body, his agility, he's been incredible." Havertz joined Arsenal in 2023. He previously spent time with Chelsea and Bayer Leverkusen. The German helped Chelsea win the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Super Cup in 2021. The following year, he helped Chelsea win the FIFA Club World Cup. He joined Arsenal on an $87 million deal in 2023. When healthy, Havertz has been Arsenal's best scorer in Premier League games. In his first two seasons with the team, Havertz scored 22 goals and added 10 assists during Premier League games. Arsenal will play its next game against Leeds United on Saturday.
