Cubs' Winnings Motivating Justin Turner for One More Championship Chase
Over 17 MLB seasons, Justin Turner has played for seven teams and is a two-time all-star. But, is there a 2026 season in his plans?
What's next for Chicago Cubs' Justin Turner beyond the 2025 MLB season?
The Cubs have 37 games left on their 2025 schedule ahead of Wednesday's home game with National League Central rival Milwaukee Brewers. With the Brewers leading their division by nine full games ahead of the Cubs with five weeks to go before postseason play starts, Chicago needs hot bats and Gold Glove-like performances in the field to stay at the top of the National League Wild Card chase.

Orioles closer Félix Bautista undergoes rotator cuff, labrum surgery, expected to miss 12 months
Baltimore Orioles closer Félix Bautista will miss the rest of the 2025 MLB season after undergoing rotator cuff and labrum surgery, the team announced Wednesday. Bautista, 30, was in the midst of another strong season when he was placed on the Injured List in July due to a shoulder injury. Bautista is expected to miss at least 12 months following the surgery, which means he'll miss most of — if not all of — the 2026 MLB season while rehabbing. It's the second major injury sustained by Bautista during his major-league career. He missed the entire 2024 MLB season while recovering from Tommy John surgery. Bautista was able to return in time for the start of the 2025 MLB season and was out to a great start prior to his injury. Through 34 2/3 innings, Bautista had a 2.60 ERA and 50 strikeouts. This story will be updated.

Pivetta shuts down Giants' bats; Padres coast to 5-1 win
Nick Pivetta allowed a leadoff homer by Jung Hoo Lee and then settled down to tie his season high with 10 strikeouts in six innings and lead the San Diego Padres to a 5-1 victory against the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night. The Padres snapped a four-game losing streak and remained two games behind the defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West. Lee homered to right-center on Pivetta's second pitch. It was his second career leadoff shot and sixth homer of the season. Pivetta (13-4) walked two batters that inning but allowed only three more baserunners, on two hits and a hit batter. He combined on a four-hitter with All-Star relievers Adrian Morejon, Jason Adam and Robert Suarez. Pivetta beat the Giants in consecutive starts, with his most recent outing being an 11-1 win at San Francisco on Aug. 13 during a three-game sweep that helped the Padres take a one-game lead over the Dodgers. The Padres were then swept in a weekend series at Dodger Stadium. The Padres tied it in the bottom of the first when leadoff batter Fernando Tatis Jr. reached on shortstop Christian Koss' throwing error, advanced on Luis Arraez's double and scored on Manny Machado's groundout. The Padres went ahead 3-1 in the fourth when Giants starter Kai-Wei Teng (1-3) had control issues, hitting two batters with pitches to load the bases and then allowing Jose Iglesias' single. Spencer Bivens came on and got a force out before walking Tatis to bring in another run. Pivetta clenched his fists and hollered as he walked off the mound after striking out his final batter to end the sixth. Pivetta reached double digits in strikeouts for the 20th time in his career. Giants RHP Landen Roupp (7-6, 3.45) and Padres LHP JP Sears (7-10, 5.12 ERA) are scheduled to start Wednesday night. ___ AP MLB:
