Yankees RHP Luis Gil (lat) begins rehab assignment
Gil, 27, was the American League Rookie of the Year in 2024 but has been sidelined all season. During spring training, he reported tightness in his pitching shoulder and eventually was diagnosed with a high-grade lat strain.
On June 21, he threw to batters in a workout at Yankee Stadium and now has progressed to game action.
Last season, Gil finished 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA in 29 starts. He struck out 171 in 151 2/3 innings but allowed 77 walks, the most in the majors.
The Yankees have been juggling their pitching rotation with the preseason losses of Gil and former Cy Young Award winner Gerrit Cole (Tommy John surgery). More recently, left-hander Ryan Yarbrough (right oblique strain) and right-hander Clarke Schmidt (Tommy John surgery) were placed on the injured list.

Alix Earle addresses breakup rumors with her NFL boyfriend Braxton Berrios
Alix Earle has admitted she has struggled as her relationship with her NFL boyfriend Braxton Berrios has gone long-distance - but the couple have not broken up. Earle, 24, has remained based in Miami while wide receiver Barrios is now in Texas for camp with his new Houston Texans team. The high-profile couple are now only seeing each other once a month for the time being but the influencer has insisted she is determined to make it work. Speaking on her new vlog - titled 'How To Survive A Long Distance Relationship' - Earle said: 'I think this is kind of like my first go at a real long-distance relationship. When it comes to our communication, it is harder than usual. 'A lot of relationships can seem perfect. So I wanted to open up to you guys on how long-distance has been going and some of the struggles we have been having. 'We have not had a lot of problems in our relationship but it has definitely just been a different obstacle. 'The last time I saw him was July 4 in Europe together and then back in Miami for a quick second. 'It has definitely been a lack of one-on-one time. We have just found a way in the little moments and we are looking forward to sitting on the couch together. When we were in Miami, we didn't want to leave the house.' Berrios signed a one-year, $2million deal with the Texans in March this year, leaving the Miami Dolphins after two seasons with the organization.

Agency for college athlete payment deals agrees to loosen third-party restrictions
The new agency vetting name, image and likeness (NIL) deals in college sports reached an agreement Thursday that relaxes standards on player agreements with third-party collectives and avoids taking the issue back to court after years of legal wrangling. The College Sports Commission said it will now consider a third-party company that seeks to pay a player to have a 'valid business purpose' if the deal 'is related to the promotion or endorsement of goods or services provided to the general public for profit.' It did away with the concept that collectives established simply to pay players did not have a valid business purpose even if they sold products for profit. That guidance, issued earlier in July, threatened to fundamentally change the concept of third-party collectives, which were established in 2021 as the main source of NIL deals for players. With schools now allowed to pay players directly under terms of the industry-changing House settlement, the role of collectives was thrown into limbo. The CSC, in charge of vetting third-party deals worth $600 or more, was trying to make it more difficult for schools to use collectives as a workaround to the $20.5m cap that the schools are allowed to pay players. Plaintiff attorneys threatened to take the case back to court, arguing the CSC guidance amounted to an incorrect reading of the lawsuit settlement that made the payments possible. The CSC's new guidance provides a more liberal view of what third-party collectives can do. The CSC's 'for-profit inquiry focuses on whether the sale of goods or services is for profit and not whether the entity itself is operating at a profit or a loss at any given time,' the CSC said in a news release. Part of the CSC's requirements include athletes needing to, in certain cases, provide documentation showing the entity's efforts to profit from the deal. In a joint statement, the defendants and plaintiffs reiterated that 'the traditional purpose of many NIL collectives – raising money to induce student-athletes to attend or play at an institution – does not satisfy the valid business purpose requirement.' But, the statement said, 'In evaluating such payments, the Settlement's requirements focus on substance, not labels' – an indication that the focus should not be on whether the organization making the deal is considered a 'collective,' but only whether it sells something to the public for profit. Parts of the arrangement that don't change are the CSC's task of determining fair market value for the goods and services provided and the collectives' ability to match athletes with other businesses offering NIL opportunities.
