Former Carlisle United forward released by National League club
Former Carlisle United loan man Tyrese Omotoye has been released by one of the Blues' National League rivals.
The forward has been let go by Forest Green Rovers following the 2024/25 season.
Omotoye is one of six players released by the club after they missed out on promotion in the play-offs.
The former Norwich City player, 22, had been at the New Lawn for two-and-a-half years.
He only made four league appearances last season, in a total tally of 55 league outings in his time at the club.
Omotoye scored just one league goal for Forest Green, his five other strikes coming in cup competitions.
The attacker was on United's books in the second half of the 2021/22 season after joining on loan from Norwich in the January transfer window during Keith Millen's spell in charge at Brunton Park.

After impressing on his debut in a 2-0 win over Bradford City, Omotoye struggled to make further impact and 13 Carlisle outings, under Millen and Paul Simpson, produced no goals.
He had previously been on loan at Swindon Town and Leyton Orient and, after four first-team appearances for Norwich, moved on permanently to Forest Green in January 2023.
The Nailsworth side, who finished third in the fifth tier under Steve Cotterill last season, have also released Teddy Jenks, Jordon Garrick, Emmanuel Osadebe, Jamie Searle and Ben Tozer, the latter having retired.
Jordan Moore-Taylor and Fiachra Pagel have been offered new deals.
Forest Green are preparing for a second successive season in the National League, having lost to Southend United in the play-off semi-finals.

Mets Announce Trade With Giants After Rockies Game
Mets Announce Trade With Giants After Rockies Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The New York Mets enter Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies with a 40-24 record that sits atop of the National League East standings. New York is one of just three teams in MLB with at least 40 wins this season, joining the Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers. Advertisement Losing in the National League Championship Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers last season, New York reinforced its roster over the winter, most notably signing superstar outfielder Juan Soto to a 15-year, $765 million contract. While Soto and New York's talented offense grabbed most of the headlines this offseason, it has been the Mets' pitching staff that has led the way thus far. New York Mets pitching coach Jeremy Hefner© Ed Szczepanski-Imagn Images Coming into the weekend, New York ranks first in team ERA with a 2.84 mark. This has been despite several injuries to key pitchers. Further bolstering this group, the Mets announced a trade with the San Francisco Giants on Saturday. Sending out cash considerations to San Francisco, the Mets received right-handed pitcher Justin Garza in return. Garza has two separate stints in MLB. Making his debut in 2021 with Cleveland, the former eighth round pick out of Cal State Fullerton pitched 28.2 innings to a 4.71 ERA. Not making it back to the big leagues until 2023 with the Boston Red Sox, Garza appeared in 17 games that season, posting a 7.36 ERA in 18.1 innings. Advertisement Since being let go by Boston, Garza has joined the Los Angeles Angels and Giants, but did not make big league appearances for either club before being dealt to New York.

Cubs Offense Could Get Better With Addition of This Outfielder
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. The Chicago Cubs are off to their best start since 2016, a year Cubs fans remember so well. Chicago has one of the best lineups in MLB and that lineup is a huge reason it was the first National League team to reach 40 wins. There are weak spots for the Cubs, one of which is their bench. The duo of Jon Berti and Vidal Brujan have combined for just four at-bats since May 20, meaning neither of those two players have done much for Chicago over the last two weeks. It is safe to assume Chicago will upgrade its bench prior to the trade deadline and one option to upgrade it would be current Chicago White Sox outfielder and former Cub Mike Tauchman. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - JUNE 05: Mike Tauchman #18 of the Chicago White Sox looks on against the Detroit Tigers at Rate Field on June 05, 2025 in Chicago, Illinois. CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - JUNE 05: Mike Tauchman #18 of the Chicago White Sox looks on against the Detroit Tigers at Rate Field on June 05, 2025 in Chicago, spent the first five seasons of his career with the Colorado Rockies, New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants. He spent the last two seasons with the Cubs and instantly became a fan favorite due to his heroics in the summer months of the season. The last two summers on the northside of Chicago were often referred to as the "Summer of Tauchman" and that magic would certainly be welcome back. Sights and sounds of an (early) summer of Mike Tauchman 😌#YouHaveToSeeIt | — Chicago Cubs (@Cubs) April 24, 2024 He is batting .297 with three home runs and a .957 OPS in 19 games and 67 at-bats so far this season. Those numbers are well above his .250 average and .732 OPS in his two seasons with the Cubs. Tauchman could provide much more depth than Brujan has given Chicago, and his familiarity with the players and the organization could make him a critical player not only on the field, but in the locker room as well. A trade for the former Cub could be exactly what the franchise needs to secure its first NL Central title and playoff appearance since the COVID-shortened 2020 season.

Dodgers' offensive struggles continue in loss to Cardinals
ST. LOUIS — The Dodgers' offensive woes went from worrisome to a five-alarm emergency Saturday when they were lost their second game in less than 24 hours, falling 2-1 to the St. Louis Cardinals. Nolan Gorman started the winning rally with a ground-rule double leading off the ninth. He gave way to pinch-runner Jose Barrero, who moved to third on a sacrifice bunt and scored on Nolan Arenado's pinch-hit single off Dodgers reliever Ben Casparius (4-1). The Cardinals appeared to have won the game in the eighth when Alec Burleson hit a one-hop comebacker that ricocheted off Casparius with two out. Casparius chased after the ball and made a hurried throw to first that pulled Freddie Freeman off the bag, allowing Masyn Winn to race home. But the Dodgers matched that in the ninth on consecutive one-out singles by Shohei Ohtani and Mookie Betts. Freeman then struck out swinging, but the ball got away from catcher Pedro Pages, allowing Ohtani to score to tie the game. The Dodgers left 12 runners on base and were hitless in 12 at-bats with runners in scoring position. They are one for 25 with runners in scoring position in their two games in St. Louis. The slump couldn't come at a worst team for the Dodgers, who begin a three-game series Monday in San Diego. The Padres entered Saturday a game back of the Dodgers in the National League West. The Dodgers wasted a splendid performance from starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who allowed four hits while striking out nine in six scoreless innings, lowing his earned-run average to 2.20. No Japanese pitcher has ever led an American major league in ERA; the Cubs' Yu Darvish came closest when his 2.01 mark in the COVID-shortened 2020 season was second-best in the National League. Only two NL pitchers have better marks than Yamamoto this season. The right-hander won four ERA titles in seven seasons with Orix in the Japanese Pacific League. Only Kazuhisa Inao, who debuted in 1956, won more. Three times Yamamoto had ERAs under 1.69 and his career mark in Japan was 1.72 in 188 starts.
