Reds release INF Jeimer Candelario after struggles
June 30 - The Cincinnati Reds officially released infielder Jeimer Candelario on Sunday after he cleared waivers following his designation for assignment on Monday. Candelario, 31, was only halfway through a three-year, $45 million contract he signed before the 2024 season that made him the Reds' highest-priced free agent in five years. The veteran first and third baseman had been on the injured list since late April due to a lumbar spine strain. The Reds reinstated him from the injured list on Monday as he ran out of time on a minor league rehabilitation assignment and have let him go while owing him nearly $23 million. Candelario played in 22 games, with 12 starts at third base and seven starts at first, before going on the IL. He batted an abysmal .113 (9-for-80) with two home runs and 10 RBIs. His last game was on April 27, when he went 0-for-4 as a designated hitter in an 8-1 road win against the Colorado Rockies. In his first season in Cincinnati, he made 112 appearances and batted .225 with 20 homers, 23 doubles and 56 RBIs. Following stints with the Chicago Cubs (2016-17) and Detroit Tigers (2017-22), Candelario had one of the best seasons of his career in 2023, split between the Washington Nationals and Cubs. He batted .251 with career highs of 22 homers and 70 RBIs, prompting the Reds to pursue him in free agency. The Reds have moved forward with Christian Encarnacion-Strand at third base and Spencer Steer at first as their main corner infielders. --Field Level Media

Reports: Rockets reward Jabari Smith Jr. with 5-year, $122M extension
June 30 - The Houston Rockets and forward Jabari Smith Jr. agreed to a five-year, $122 million extension of his rookie contract, ESPN and The Athletic reported Sunday. Smith, 22, has averaged 13.0 points and 7.5 rebounds across three NBA seasons since the Rockets selected him third overall in the 2022 draft. He put up 12.2 points and 7.0 rebounds per game over 57 games (39 starts) in 2024-25. Smith helped the Rockets earn the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference playoffs, though Houston then lost a seven-game series to the Golden State Warriors in the first round. The Rockets responded by making a blockbuster trade to acquire Kevin Durant from the Phoenix Suns. Durant joins a Houston core that includes Smith, Alperen Sengun, Amen Thompson and Fred VanVleet, with VanVleet reported to receive a two-year, $50 million contract to remain with the Rockets --Field Level Media
