Cardinals to place Nolan Arenado on 10-day IL with shoulder injury: Sources
SAN DIEGO — The St. Louis Cardinals will place third baseman Nolan Arenado on the 10-day injured list with a right shoulder injury before Friday's game against the San Diego Padres, team sources told The Athletic. Arenado's shoulder issues date to early July. He missed a handful of games trying to avoid the IL and was hopeful rest over the All-Star break would alleviate the discomfort. Advertisement Instead, he struggled mightily. Over the last 12 games, Arenado hit just .159/.213/.205 with only two extra-base hits and one RBI. Arenado's offensive decline has been a talking point all season. The 10-time Gold Glove Award winner has continued to play an excellent third base, but his season OPS dropped to .660 and he has not homered since June 21. There is no immediate timetable for his return. Nolan Gorman (back spasms) will come off the 10-day IL as the corresponding move and will see the bulk of starts at third base. Gorman began a rehab assignment with Double-A Springfield on Tuesday and homered in Wednesday's game. BANG! Nolan Gorman launches a two-run go-ahead shot while rehabbing for Double-A Springfield. — Springfield Cardinals (@Sgf_Cardinals) July 31, 2025 Arenado has been placed on the IL three previous times throughout his 13-year career, and just once with St. Louis. He missed the final two weeks of the 2023 season with back soreness, though the Cardinals were well out of contention and on course to finish 20 games under .500. The Cardinals are also recalling Ryan Fernandez, Roddery Muñoz and Andre Granillo from Triple-A Memphis. St. Louis needs to replenish its bullpen after trading away its top three relievers in Ryan Helsley, Phil Maton and Steven Matz at the trade deadline. Fernandez struggled with the big league club in April, posting an 11.42 ERA over 11 appearances before being demoted to Memphis. However, he's been much more effective since, with a 3.12 ERA in 29 appearances and a 12.72 K/9 ratio. Granillo was optioned to Memphis on Monday, but is eligible to be recalled because a roster spot opened via trade. The Cardinals are still deciding who will take over the closer role, but president of baseball operations John Mozeliak indicated Thursday left-hander JoJo Romero was the top candidate. Right-handers Riley O'Brien and Kyle Leahy should see their usage expand to set-up roles as well. (Photo of Arenado: Dustin Bradford / Getty Images)

The Dodgers look vulnerable, and the Padres and the rest of their competitors know it
So much for the Dodgers ruining baseball. They won't finish this season with the best record in history, as they could win every one of their remaining games and still not realize the 120-win season that was envisioned for them. They might not even finish this season with the best record in the National League — or in their own division, for that matter. The Dodgers look beatable. Their perceived vulnerability didn't necessarily inspire the frenzied action around baseball before the trade deadline, but it certainly didn't discourage it either. With blood in the water and the World Series field wide open, several contenders moved to prepare their rosters for October. No team changed as much as the San Diego Padres, who are suddenly positioned to turn the Dodgers' title defense into a humiliation exercise. 'We went in knowing, OK, we have a team that can compete and play deep and ultimately we have these needs and let's go fill them,' Padres general manager A.J. Preller said. Mason Miller, who throws a fastball with an average velocity of 101 mph, will turbocharge what was already the No. 1 bullpen in baseball. Ramon Laureano and Ryan O'Hearn will improve the balance of a top-heavy lineup featuring Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr. Freddy Fermin will address a hole at catcher. JP Sears and Nestor Cortes will add depth to a rotation on the mend. Particularly revealing of the Padres' ambitions was what Preller didn't do. He didn't trade closer Robert Suarez, an impending free agent. He didn't trade underperforming former All-Star pitcher Dylan Cease, who will also hit the market this winter. The Padres were only three games behind the Dodgers at the trade deadline, making Preller's team a legitimate threat to overtake them in the division and cost them a top-two seed in the NL, for which the reward is a first-round bye in the playoffs. The danger didn't compel the Dodgers to act, their relative inactivity in this situation reflecting the contrasting philosophies of the two organizations. The Dodgers make deals on their terms. When president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman overpay for players — the combined $85 million the Dodgers spent over the winter on relievers Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates is an example — it's usually by accident. The mentality often results in the market dictating to the Dodgers what they can and can't do. For better or worse, the Padres have elected a proactive approach. Landing Miller required to part with Leo De Vries, an 18-year-old shortstop who is widely considered one of the five best prospects in the entire sport. Preller knew what he gave up. 'He's going to be a very good major league player,' Preller said of De Vries. Preller has done this before, He traded Max Fried and he traded Emmanuel Clase and he traded Josh Naylor. When he acquired Juan Soto at the 2022 trade deadline, he sent the Washington Nationals a package that included three future All-Stars in CJ Abrams, MacKenzie Gore and James Wood. Impact players have considerable price tags, and they're higher in some years than in others. The Dodgers examined the prices of the best relievers and outfielders available, and they settled for more affordable options. The Padres went for it, with Preller saying he was confident the team's scouting and player development departments would once again replenish the farm system. 'In different points in time over the last few years, we've been able to be in this position, to be able to make these types of decisions and calls,' Preller said. 'It's just because we have good players that other teams want.' The Padres weren't alone. The two New York teams reconstructed their bullpens, the Philadelphia Phillies found a closer in Jhoan Duan and the Seattle Mariners added some pop to their lineup by dealing for Eugenio Suarez and Josh Naylor. Why wouldn't these teams be bold? The Dodgers couldn't make this a one-horse race. Their inability to separate themselves from the pack presented competitors with opportunities to pass them by at the trade deadline. Some of them might have.

Rookie tight end Tyler Warren is starting to find his fit at Indianapolis Colts training camp
Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Tyler Warren still appreciates the blue-and-white team colors. Everything else has changed — his number, the shade of blue he wears, even his new decals-laden helmet. This is what happens when the best tight end in college football turns pro. Warren, Penn State's most versatile player in 2024, now finds himself on a steep, speedy and increasingly steady learning curve at training camp with the Indianapolis Colts. 'I think it's been kind of normal installing and learning the offense, just taking your time and trying to understand it,' he said after just a couple of workouts. 'It does take stuff (to do) on my own, right? We go through it in the meeting, but when I go back to the hotel room looking over it again, doing walk-throughs with somebody is, I think, is the most helpful.' Starting over isn't easy for anyone, though Warren seems uniquely suited to make a smoot transition. He played center and quarterback as a prep star in Virginia. He played fullback at Penn State before moving to tight end. Then last season the Nittany Lion coaches threw out the vanilla playbook and tailored it to Warren's unusual skill set. It seemed there was nothing he couldn't do. Warren set a single-season school record with 104 receptions, topped the 1,000-yard mark, emerged as a short-yardage rushing beast and became the first Big Ten tight end to rush for four scores in one season since 1956. He even threw a TD pass and returned a kickoff. The resume was so impressive, he earned the John Mackey Award and All-American honors, helped Penn State reach the CFP Playoffs all while improving his draft stock. Indy took him No. 14 overall in the draft and it hasn't taken long for Warren to showcase his skills in camp, including Thursday night when he made an off-balance, one-handed stab while falling down for a first down. The play drew a loud roar from the crowd and praise from coach Shane Steichen. "It was an incredible catch," Steichen said. "But I did get some backlash because some of the guys thought it was a sack and it might have been. I'll take that back. It probably, definitely was, but I was watching the route. It was a heck of a catch, and you saw that on his college tape.' It's a major improvement from Warren's first few practices when he struggled to hold onto the passes thrown by Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones, who are battling to be the Colts starting quarterback. Indy has plenty of depth with seven tight ends on the roster and five with NFL experience, but they've not had a reliable go-to player at the position since two-time Pro Bowler Jack Doyle retired following the 2021 season. Just how much do the Colts think of Warren? Because linebacker and four-time captain Zaire Franklin, last year's league tackling leader, wears Warren's college number, 44, they gave him No. 84, Doyle's old number, and started experimenting with the playbook — just like the Penn State staff. 'We're putting a lot on his plate, and sometimes you push them a little bit beyond their threshold,' offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter said. 'I think he's going to be a very versatile piece for us. We're going to try a bunch of different stuff with him, give him a bunch of shots at a bunch of different aspects playing offensive football.' Now, Warren is starting to figure out exactly where he fits in this offense. He's starting to make the explosive and wow plays Colts scouts envisioned after watching him in college. He's already lined up in the backfield, too, and it's unclear just what else might have happened behind closed doors. Warren isn't dropping any hints, either. Next up is his first big test: At Baltimore, not far from his aptly named hometown of Mechanicsville, Virginia, or the campus in State College, Pennsylvania, where he wore dark blue. The Colts and Ravens square off Tuesday in a joint practice and again two nights later in royal blue. Steichen said the coaching staff anticipates determining who plays and how much in the Indy's preseason opener by Monday, and Warren can't wait to start showing the NFL his true colors. "The biggest difference between being a pro compared to college, I mean everybody's a pro, right? Everybody's really good and it's tough competition,' he said. 'But that's a blessing. Great competition is a gift. Being around really good players is only going to make me better.' ___ AP NFL: recommended Item 1 of 3
