Guardians add Carlos Hernández to roster and call up prospect C.J. Kayfus from Columbus

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Guardians added right-hander Carlos Hernández to the roster and selected the contract of first baseman/outfielder C.J. Kayfus from Triple-A Columbus before Saturday's game against the Minnesota Twins.
To make room for Hernández and Kayfus, left-hander Tim Herrin and outfielder Johnathan Rodríguez were optioned to Columbus.
Kayfus — a third-round pick in by the Guardians in the 2003 MLB Draft — made his major-league debut Saturday, batting eighth and playing right field. The 23-year old Kayfus started the season in Double-A Akron before being promoted to Columbus, where he batted .283 with 13 home runs and 43 RBIs.

Simone Biles' husband, Jonathan Owens, gets into skirmish in wild Bears training camp scene

The Bears had a chippy practice on Tuesday — and Jonathan Owens was one of the top aggressors. Owens, the husband of seven-time Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast Simone Biles, was involved in one of four skirmishes at Chicago's training camp session Tuesday — and it was perhaps the most fierce of them all. The Bears were in full pads for the session and were running many goal-line sets, which brought out some major physicality.

The safety has been a depth piece for most of his career, but has become largely a household name after tying the knot with Biles in April 2023. 4 Jonathan Owens of the Chicago Bears and Simone Biles greet each other before the game against the New England Patriots at Soldier Field on November 10, 2024 in Chicago, Illinois.

He did, however, start 28 of 34 games across both his final year in Houston and his lone campaign in Green Bay.

Wide receiver Rome Odunze had his helmet ripped off by a defender and wide receiver Tyler Scott 'delivered a big block' safety on Jaquan Brisker before the two had to be separated. In the trenches, left tackle Braxton Jones and defensive end Austin Booker went at it before defensive tackle Gervon Dexter Sr. stepped in and pushed Jones to the ground.
