Bengals' past draft pick mistakes haunt them in another list
As Bengals fans could have predicted, none of the team's guards come even close to making the annual top interior offensive linemen list from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

That list features droves of names the Bengals could have either drafted or otherwise acquired.
And it also features a former Bengals first-round pick.

Tucked outside of the top 10 and in the 'also getting votes' section is Kevin Zeitler, who will suit up for the Tennessee Titans in 2025.
Zeitler was Cincinnati's first-round pick in 2012 and pretty infamously never had a serious shot at a long-term extension with the Bengals, a team that undervalues his spot and probably only selected him because they happened to have two first-round picks that year (they used the other on corner Dre Kirkpatrick).

While former draft picks and misses pepper the list, the Bengals will go into camp with Cody Ford, Cordell Volson, rookie Dylan Fairchild and free-agent add Lucas Patrick scrapping it out for starting roles.

Chipper Jones gives his take on whether or not he'd ever manage a MLB team
Chipper Jones led the Futures National team to a win on Saturday. His winning lineup card was signed, sealed, and sent to Cooperstown, adding more impressive moments to his Hall of Fame career. Channel 2's Alison Mastrangelo asked Jones if he would ever consider managing a Major League Baseball team one day. Advertisement Jones had fun with the answer. 'I've still got three boys at home, so seven boys in total. So, you have to be completely committed to be a coach or a manager and I just don't know that I can serve the spot as well as I should. Besides, I keep asking myself, 'Why would any general manager want to hire me for a fireable spot? You know, for a fireable job?' Like, would you want to have to be the general manager that has to fire me? That's a bad PR move if you're asking me,' he laughed. Atlanta Braves fans will be able to cheer on two current players during All-Star Week. Matt Olson will participate in the Home Run Derby on Monday, and Ronald Acuña Jr. will play in the All-Star Game on Tuesday.

Fans flock to Truist Park for 2025 MLB Draft
Sunday night, Major League Baseball took over the Coca-Cola Roxy across from Truist Park for the 2025 MLB Draft, as future stars were selected. As each pick came in, excitement grew in The Battery, where a draft watch party was held for fans on the plaza. Advertisement A handful of fans were allowed to attend the draft in person, and many, like Brock Slocumb, showed up hours in advance. 'We were like, 'Let's get in line about two hours early' because it's all general admission, so it's first come, first served,' Slocumb told Channel 2's Brittany Kleinpeter. [DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] Just in front of Slocumb in line was Michael Jagger and his family. 'We've been here since 2:30. We just wanted to make sure we were the first in line so that maybe we could get a better seat,' said Jagger. For fans who weren't able to snag those coveted seats, some, like Davis and Drew Javaley, camped outside the Roxy hoping to spot a few familiar faces. Advertisement 'People we've grown up watching, so it's cool to finally see them in person,' said Davis. The night brought fans together for a moment that many don't often get to experience so intimately. On Monday, the Home Run Derby gets underway at 8 p.m., with gates set to open at 5 p.m. TRENDING STORIES: [SIGN UP: WSB-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter]
