Twins All-Star Byron Buxton is day-to-day with rib cartilage irritation

Washington Post6 days ago
MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Twins announced on Sunday that All-Star center fielder Byron Buxton is day-to-day with cartilage irritation in his rib cage.
Buxton was pulled from Saturday's game against Washington after he experienced discomfort in his side while running. An MRI performed on Sunday confirmed the irritated cartilage.
'It's a good outcome,' Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said. 'We'll see how he is tomorrow and so on, but to be day-to-day with what he left the game with, it's a good thing.'

📸 Still in hospital, Bayern star sends message to the fans

Somewhat surprisingly, the news came from Munich on Saturday morning: Aleksandar Pavlovic had injured himself in training yesterday and will be out for the time being. He had suffered a fracture of the orbit and had already undergone surgery. The Bayern star has now reported from the hospital himself. "I've already survived the operation, everything's not so bad! I'll be back soon! Thanks for all your get-well wishes! Your Aleks", he wrote on his Instagram profile and posted a photo from his hospital bed. The Bavarians did not provide any information on the duration of his absence. According to 'Sky', among others, the midfielder will be out for three to four weeks. This means he could also miss the German national team's World Cup qualifying matches in early September. For the 21-year-old, it's particularly bitter that he's being slowed down again by an injury. After a collarbone fracture in the first half of the season, he was out for a long time in the second half due to Pfeiffer's glandular fever. He had also missed the 2024 European Championship due to injury. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. 📸 Kevin C.

Bayern Munich midfielder Pavlovic fractures eye socket ahead of the new season

MUNICH (AP) — Bayern Munich midfielder Aleksandar Pavlovic's bad luck with injuries and illness seems to have struck again. The German champion said Saturday that Pavlovic has undergone surgery after fracturing his eye socket in a team training session Friday. Bayern didn't say exactly how the injury happened or how long Pavlovic would be out, just that he 'is facing a spell on the sidelines.' The 21-year-old Pavlovic is considered one of world soccer's best young defensive midfielders but has already racked up a list of absences for sometimes-unusual injuries and illness. Pavlovic struggled with tonsillitis in his breakthrough 2023-24 season and was ruled out of Germany's team for Euro 2024 with illness. Last season, he had spells out with a collarbone fracture and glandular fever. Bayern's season starts Aug. 16 against Stuttgart in the German Super Cup. ___ AP soccer: The Associated Press

How to watch WNBA MVP favorite Napheesa Collier and the Lynx take on A'ja Wilson's Aces

Just one week ago, the Minnesota Lynx stomped the Las Vegas Aces by 31 points thanks to an efficient 48 combined points from Napheesa Collier and Courtney Williams. In the 109-78 victory on July 25, the Lynx (23-5) held the Aces to 38 percent shooting and connected on nearly 55 percent of their own attempts. Advertisement Minnesota, which owns the best record in the WNBA, faces Las Vegas (14-13) looking to duplicate its performance. The teams square off in Las Vegas' Michelob Ultra Arena for a nationally televised matchup on ABC. Live coverage is also available on ESPN+. Saturday's matchup is one of the 13 regular-season WNBA games on ABC, a league high since its inception. The league is as popular as it's ever been, setting a variety of viewership and attendance records in the past year. If you like scorers, two of the best in the WNBA will take the floor: Collier (23.8 points per game) and A'ja Wilson (22.1 ppg). Collier is also the clear favorite to win WNBA MVP at BetMGM. Since the loss to the Lynx, the Aces have won two straight games. Wilson shined her last time out in Los Angeles against the Sparks, scoring 34 points on nearly 70 percent shooting from the floor. Minnesota has a comfortable lead ahead of defending champion New York Liberty (17-10) for the best overall record. Despite that, the Lynx head into the weekend with the same odds as the Liberty to win this year's title. Las Vegas is tied with the Golden State Valkyries for the seventh-best record in the WNBA, currently holding on to one of the eight playoff spots. But the Aces look to continue rising in the standings over the last two months of the regular season.
