Follow along on Monday for the latest news and rumors:
DIamondbacks trade rumors continue
'Do I think there's a chance we make more trades? Yes, I do,' Diamondbacks GM Mike Hazen said. 'I think there's going to be enough interest that we probably will have to look at — think long and hard about what we're doing. I just don't know the extent to which that's going to happen and how many that's going to be.'
He said interest in his veterans on expiring deals — namely right-handers Merrill Kelly and Zac Gallen and third baseman Eugenio Suarez — has been strong, though he admitted his group has not yet focused its attention on those players. – Nick Piecoro, Arizona Republic

Baltimore RHP Grayson Rodriguez to have season-ending elbow surgery
PHILADELPHIA — Baltimore right-hander Grayson Rodriguez will have season-ending surgery on his pitching elbow next week. Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino made the announcement before Monday's game in Philadelphia. Rodriguez started the season on the injured list due to right elbow inflammation that flared up in spring training. A rehab outing scheduled for April 17 was canceled because of a strained lat muscle. The 2018 first-round draft pick, who missed three months of the minor league season in 2022 with a lat injury, hasn't pitched in the majors since July 31, 2024. He finished last season on the IL with a strained lat.

Red Sox ride Duran HR, strong outing from Bello to 6th straight win, beating Royals 8-5
BOSTON (AP) — Jarren Duran hit a three-run homer and Brayan Bello pitched six effective innings, helping the Boston Red Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 8-5 on Monday night for their sixth consecutive victory. Rob Refsnyder drove in two runs, and Duran added a leaping, run-saving catch in front of the Green Monster in the fourth. Bello (8-5) allowed an unearned run and six hits. The right-hander has surrendered three earned runs or fewer in 13 of his last 14 outings. The Royals got back-to-back home runs from Vinnie Pasquantino and Maikel Garcia off Jorge Alcala as part of a four-run eighth. But Aroldis Chapman handled the ninth for his 21st save. Royals starter Bailey Falter (7-6) was pulled after four innings. He was charged with seven runs and eight hits. Refsnyder put the Red Sox in front with a two-run single in the first. Duran then pushed the lead to 5-0 with two out, hitting a 419-foot drive deep to center for his 12th homer. Boston rookie Roman Anthony was scratched from his scheduled start in right field due to mid-back tightness. He was replaced by Wilyer Abreu. Key moment With Boston leading 8-5 in the eighth, Kansas City's Bobby Witt Jr. singled to right field. Nick Loftin attempted to score from second, but Abreu's throw from right beat him and Loftin was tagged out in a collision with catcher Connor Wong. The Royals challenged, arguing Wong illegally blocked the plate, but it was upheld after a video review. Key stat The Red Sox have outscored their opponents 44-16 during their win streak. Up next Rookie right-hander Ryan Bergert (1-0, 2.78 ERA) starts for Kansas City on Tuesday night, and left-hander Garrett Crochet (12-4, 2.23 ERA) goes for the Red Sox. ___ AP MLB:

Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo still 'evaluating future' amidst trade rumors
Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo still 'evaluating future' amidst trade rumors originally appeared on The Sporting News English rock band The Clash wrote a massively big single in the year 1981, titled, "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" No other song could better describe the situation that concerns Milwaukee Bucks star power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo and his future in the NBA. The two-time MVP has been at the center of trade talks ever since the Bucks faced an early playoff exit at the hands of the Indiana Pacers in five games in the very first round, which saw Antetokounmpo average 33 points, after finishing 48-34 in the regular season. Giannis himself was yet again in the MVP conversation after averaging 30.4 points per game for the second straight season along with 11.9 rebounds and 6.5 assists in 67 games played. And according to an official report by senior NBA insider Shams Charania, there is still no official word on the next move in "The Greek Freak's" future Hall of Fame career. Charania reported that Giannis was continuing to evaluate the future of his career, and that "nothing was set in stone" regarding the star big man staying or leaving Milwaukee. Antetokounmpo has shown signs that he could potentially find a new team, such as unfollowing the team on Instagram especially shortly after the team released star guard Damian Lillard. We don't know what Giannis is going to do, but just like that Clash song from the 80s sings, if Giannis goes, there will be trouble in Milwaukee.
