Tampa Bay Rays are in talks for a potential sale amid stadium uncertainty
The Tampa Bay Rays say they are in "exclusive discussions" with a Florida investment group for a potential sale of the team. The Rays are valued at $1.25 billion, according to Forbes magazine, and the sale price is $1.7 billion, per Sportico. Stuart Sternberg bought the Major League Baseball club for $200 million in 2004. "The Tampa Bay Rays announced that the team has recently commenced exclusive discussions with a group led by Patrick Zalupski, Bill Cosgrove, Ken Babby and prominent Tampa Bay investors concerning a possible sale of the team," the club said Wednesday while declining further comment. The potential sale comes at a precarious time for the Rays and their home ballpark. They are playing this season at the spring training home of the New York Yankees in Tampa after the roof of Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg was heavily damaged during Hurricane Milton last October. Before the hurricane, the Rays and the city had agreed on a plan for a $1.3 billion stadium development project next to Tropicana Field. In March, Sternberg said the club was withdrawing from that agreement, amid reporting that MLB was pressuring the team to sell, and would even leverage the next collective bargaining agreement to force the issue, per The Athletic. St. Petersburg is spending about $55 million to repair Tropicana Field with a plan for the Rays to return there in 2026. The city and the club have a three-year agreement to play there. Beyond that, the club's future in the Tampa Bay area is uncertain. When the Rays withdrew from the project, the city noted that it was possible the club would have new owners. "If in the coming months a new owner, who demonstrates a commitment to honoring their agreements and our community priorities emerges, we will consider a partnership to keep baseball in St. Pete," Mayor Ken Welch said in March. "But we will not put our city's progress on hold as we await a collaborative and community-focused baseball partner." The Associated Press contributed to this report.

'Massage, needles, hyperbaric, H waves': What Tyrese Haliburton said about his injury
INDIANAPOLIS -- Pacers All-Star point guard Tyrese Haliburton acknowledged Wednesday that he is dealing with a right calf strain and coach Rick Carlisle still categorized his status for Game 6 of the NBA Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder as close to a game-time decision at media availability Wednesday. The Pacers are down 3-2 and facing elimination in Thursday's 8:30 p.m. game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Pacers held a walk-through Wednesday morning and a shootaround open to media for about half an hour around noon. Haliburton participated in both and had no issues shooting the ball, but Carlisle acknowledged there was no real running involved. Re-live the Pacers unbelievable run to the 2025 NBA Finals with IndyStar's commemorative book "We'll see where we are (Thursday)," Carlisle said. "It's a topic that people want to hear about and know about. There's going to be a lot of questions about it. We will not really know for sure until late tomorrow afternoon or early evening." Haliburton has been getting treatment on his lower right leg since Game 2, but he acknowledged Wednesday that the injury he was dealing with in Game 2 was an ankle issue and he didn't have a calf problem until Game 5 when he tripped and fell trying to drive to the lane in the first quarter. He struggled through the rest of the game and finished with four points on 0 of 6 shooting, but after Game 5 he said he intended to play in Game 6 and that in the NBA Finals, he would want to play if he could walk. However, on Wednesday, he also acknowledged he'd have to listen to the Pacers' medical staff to make sure he's not running the risk of turning a minor injury into a major one. Kevin Durant missed four games in the NBA Finals with a calf strain in 2019, returned for Game 5 and then suffered an Achilles tendon tear that kept him off the floor for the entire 2019-20 season. "I think I have to be as smart as I want to be," Haliburton said. "Have to understand the risks, ask the right questions. I'm a competitor; I want to play. I'm going to do everything in my power to play. That's just what it is." Haliburton said he expects the treatment to be near-constant over the next 30 hours. "I think just around-the-clock stuff as much as I can," Haliburton said. "Massage, needles, hyperbaric, H waves. Everything you can do to get as comfortable as you can going into it. The right tape and stuff while I am performing I'm sure there's a bunch of medical professionals who could give you a better answer. Just doing everything I'm told. Trying to do everything I can." Haliburton is, of course, used to the process of game-time decisions related to medical issues as he's dealt with an array of injuries over the last three seasons including a elbow sprain in 2022-23, a hamstring strain in 2023-24, a groin strain this season and back issues. He's had injuries he's played through and others that have led to him being shut down and has said in the past that the medical staff sometimes saves him from himself when he wants to push past an injury he shouldn't. "I have a lot of trust in our medical staff," Haliburton said. "I have a lot of trust in our organization to make the right decision. I think there's been many situations through the course of my career where they've trusted me on my body. You're here more than anybody. You know I'm questionable from time to time throughout the course of season. They trust me to make the right decision on my body when the power is in my hands. I'm trying to try my best to do that. I mean, you understand that. I want to be out there. That's the plan." Haliburton acknowledged, though, that the calculus is different in the NBA Finals. In the regular season, he'd probably sit out a week or two weeks to heal.
