Aaron Judge breaks silence on Yankees' DJ LeMahieu release
The New York Yankees decided to designate DJ LeMahieu for assignment on Wednesday. He was released after clearing waivers on Thursday, thus ending his time with the Yankees. LeMahieu joined the Yankees in 2019, and his early years with the team were nothing short of great. He was an All-Star, two-time Silver Slugger and batting champion in his first three seasons. He was also an MVP candidate twice. However, injuries and defensive inability led to a divorce between him and the Yankees. The Yankees still owe him $22 million on his six-year, $90 million deal. Advertisement Aaron Judge spoke on the move to release LeMahieu. The two had been teammates for over seven seasons. "He's going to be missed," Judge said of LeMahieu to the New York Daily News' Gary Phillips. The Yankees are trying to make it back to the World Series, and LeMahieu was no longer able to help that cause. Aaron Boone recently noted that LeMahieu could not play third base because of physical limitations from injuries. The team was catering to his needs and playing him at second base while Jazz Chisholm Jr. moved back to third base. Follow The Sporting News On WhatsApp LeMahieu was struggling defensively, and the Yankees were also seeing Chisholm struggle at third base. The team eventually made the decision to move Chisholm back to second base, but that meant the only role for LeMahieu was on the bench. He ended up finishing his Yankees tenure with a .278/.351/.412 slash line and 77 home runs. Since the start of 2023, he has just a .665 OPS.

Maresca looks at ease before the final
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca was so relaxed at the end of his press conference before the Club World Cup final that he ended it by speaking French. Already fluent in English, Spanish and - of course - his first language Italian, he tried to talk French. Advertisement It was near perfect from Maresca but he ended his sentence laughing and speaking English. It was a confident performance in front of the world's media where he was also asked about the sale of Noni Madueke's departure to Arsenal, Moises Caicedo's fitness and the quality of PSG, who he labelled the "best in the world." The mood in the camp looks genuinely positive as Maresca has afforded players time off in the knowledge that they have extended their season due to this newly expanded summer tournament. That extends to directors who feel that this campaign is beginning to show the world that Chelsea should be regarded as smartly run - for all their innovations on extended long contracts - now the younger players are settling in. Advertisement This game is now receiving global media attention now in New York and New Jersey with 100s of media in attendance. That will, of course, not mean anything when the match kicks off and everyone at Chelsea faces a challenge against a team that has destroyed both Real Madrid and Inter Milan in recent months.

Broncos roster: LB Dre Greenlaw (No. 57) will make an instant impact
Broncos Wire's 90-man offseason roster series continues today with a look at seventh-year linebacker Dre Greenlaw, No. 57. Before the Broncos: Greenlaw (6-0, 230 pounds) was drafted by the San Francisco in the fifth round (148th overall) of the 2019 NFL draft out of Arkansas. Greenlaw made an immediate impact, playing in all 16 games, starting 11 of them. In his rookie year, Greenlaw made 92 total tackles (64 solo, 28 assisted, three tackles for loss), 1.0 sacks, two pass deflections and one interception, all while leading the 49ers to the cusp of a championship, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIV, 31-20. The following year, Greenlaw again started 11 games, playing in 13 of them. Greenlaw made 86 total tackles (61 solo, 25 assisted, seven tackles for loss), 1.0 sacks and two pass deflections. In 2021, the 49ers once again were on top of the NFC West, but Greenlaw only played in three regular season games, as he was shut down for most of the season with a groin injury. Greenlaw played in the opening two games of the 2021 season, before returning for the regular season finale and the 49ers' deep playoff run that culminated in an NFC championship game against the Los Angeles Rams. In 2021, Greenlaw had 21 total tackles (10 solo, 11 assisted), one pass deflection and one interception returned for a touchdown. In the next two seasons, Greenlaw played in and started 30 regular season games and six playoff games, making 247 total tackles (157 solo, 90 assisted, eight tackles for loss), 1.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, 10 pass deflections and one interception. In 2022, the 49ers made it to the NFC championship again. In 2023, San Francisco made it all the way to the Super Bowl once again. In the Super Bowl, Greenlaw was jogging onto the field before crumpling to the ground with what was described at the time as a "lower leg injury." It turned out to be a torn Achilles tendon. In 2024, Greenlaw tried to return from his torn tendon, returning in Week 15 and 16, totaling nine tackles (three solo, six assisted) before being shut down with a calf injury. Greenlaw then hit free agency this spring. Broncos tenure: The Denver Broncos didn't waste any time pursuing Greenlaw during free agency. Almost immediately, the Broncos agreed to terms with Greenlaw on a three-year deal worth $31.5 million. If Greenlaw can return back to the player he once was, Denver's defense will be in great shape heading into 2025. Chances to make the 53-man roster: Lock. Greenlaw was brought in to be an additional force in the middle of the field, along with Alex Singleton. When healthy, Greenlaw ranks among the top linebackers in the NFL. He is a lock to make the team and is set to serve as the team's No. 1 linebacker in 2025. Related: These 25 celebrities are Broncos fans.
