Jose Ramirez, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. exit Guardians-Blue Jays game after being hit by pitches
CLEVELAND — The two biggest stars in this Guardians-Blue Jays game on June 26 have both been hit by pitches, and now both are done for the day.
Guardians starter Tanner Bibee first hit Vladimir Guerrero Jr. with a pitch in the third inning. He stayed in the game to run but was later pulled from the game.

In the fourth, Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman hit Jose Ramirez in the forearm with a pitch. Ramirez, like Guerrero, stayed in the game to run but was later taken out.
Nolan Jones has entered in his place in the lineup, with Lane Thomas moving to center, Angel Martinez moving to second base and Daniel Schneemann shifting to third.
Both benches were warned.
Guardians manager Stephen Vogt then had some words for John Schneider between innings. Vogt looked to be fuming with his star third baseman now out of the game.
Officially, Ramirez exited the game with a right forearm bruise. X-Rays were negative, and he's day-to-day. Guerrero's X-Rays were also negative.

Would the Commanders be an ideal fit for T.J. Watt if he and Steelers can't reach a deal?
One of the biggest needs over the offseason for the Washington Commanders was finding a true edge rusher. They brought in Javon Kinlaw and Deatrich Wise Jr., and while they are both capable defenders, the Commanders lack a true game-changing edge rusher. You know, someone like T.J. Watt. Watt becomes a free agent in 2026, but he'd like an extension before that, so he has not participated in any offseason workouts to date for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Similar to the Commanders' situation with Terry McLaurin, both the Steelers and Watt want to see a deal done. In the event that doesn't happen, though, Fox Sports named the Commanders a potential landing spot for the veteran linebacker. Pittsburgh Steelers edge T.J. Watt: Washington CommandersAgain, I'm not buying that the Steelers would do this. Watt is an iconic piece of that franchise — and that word carries weight in Pittsburgh. Furthermore, even with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, the Steelers' hopes of accomplishing anything this season will still rest on their defense. Advertisement Then, the author suggests trading away one of the Commanders' most loyal players: Scary Terry. Why not indulge one delusional fantasy with another? If Washington were to trade Terry McLaurin, they'd be opening some financial wiggle room to add another lucrative player. They could get at least two, if not three, years of play out of Watt before they have to worry about extending Jayden Daniels. They definitely need the pass rush help. Watt would give Dan Quinn a blue chip player, which he doesn't really have right now, on his Commanders' defense. Adding him to a pass rush that currently includes Frankie Luvu, Dorance Armstrong, Deatrich Wise and Clelin Ferrell would upgrade the Washington pass rush from "so-so" to outright dangerous. Sure, maybe it's a mixed message to hinder the offense by trading McLaurin only to add T.J. Watt. But, with all due respect to Scary Terry, I think it's a bit harder to find a DPOY-level edge rusher than an All-Pro caliber receiver in today's NFL. It doesn't just hinder the offense to trade McLaurin, it hinders Jayden Daniels' development, which is far more important than any pass rusher. Adding T.J. Watt will deplete the Commanders' remaining cap space and require additional financial adjustments to make it happen. But let's be real, letting McLaurin go is not an option the Commanders want to take. Besides, everyone knows Watt isn't leaving Pittsburgh, and McLaurin isn't leaving Washington. Most likely.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca critcizes weather delays at Club World Cup and questions US hosting the competition
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca hit out at the Club World Cup organizers and suggested the United States is not a suitable host for the competition after his team's last-16 win over Benfica was disrupted by a two-hour weather delay. 'For me personally, it's not football. It's already seven, eight, nine games that they suspended here. I think it's a joke,' he told reporters after Chelsea's dramatic, extra time 4-1 win on Saturday in Charlotte, North Carolina. 'I can understand that for security reasons, you have to suspend the game. But if you suspend seven or eight games, that means that probably this is not the right place to do this competition.' Six matches have now been suspended in five cities across the US due to adverse weather at this tournament, a year before the country is due to host the men's World Cup. On Saturday, Chelsea's match was suspended in the 85th minute when the Blues were 1-0 up thanks to Reece James' brilliant, long-range free kick midway through the second half. Enormous grey clouds gathered over the Bank of America Stadium as the players trudged off the field, bringing thunderstorms and a risk of lightning which delayed the match for one hour and 53 minutes. When they returned to play the final minutes of the match, Benfica equalized through Ángel Di María's penalty in the 95th minute to force extra time. But, instead of the momentum swinging towards the Portuguese club, Chelsea regrouped and scored three goals in less than 10 minutes to secure a thrilling win and its spot in the quarterfinals. That such a match took more than four hours to play, however, dominated the press conference afterward. 'It's not normal to suspend a game,' Maresca continued. 'In a World Cup how many games have they suspended? Zero, probably. In a European (championship), how many games? Zero. We are here, two weeks, and they already suspend six, seven games. There is some problem, for me personally.' FIFA, soccer's global governing body which organizes the Club World Cup, has not responded to CNN's request for comment. At the time of the delay, FIFA issued a statement saying that it was following 'the established safety protocols.' Maresca was quick to clarify he thought the Club World Cup was 'a fantastic competition,' and that he was 'talking as a manger' who had struggled to keep his players focused during the two-hour delay. 'When you are two hours inside and you're trying to keep them in the game for two hours, they're speaking with the family outside for safety reasons, they're eating something, they're playing, they're laughing. How can you keep them two hours inside focused?'

Auburn target Nolan Wilson to make decision soon
The Auburn Tigers could gain a commitment from a four-star defensive lineman as early as next week. Sam Spiegelman of Rivals reported on Friday that four-star defensive lineman Nolan Wilson could make his announcement of which school he will be attending next week. Wilson is from Picayune, Mississippi where he plays high school football for Picayune Memorial High School. Outside of Auburn he has strong interest from Alabama, Florida, Miami, and Ole Miss. Advertisement Wilson is a prospect for the 2026 recruiting class, and a commitment to the Tigers would bolster Auburn's ranking. The Tigers have dropped over the past few weeks due to players pulling their commitments to go elsewhere. Wilson is the No. 4 player in Mississippi and ranked nationally at No. 99 by 247Sports. He is the No. 15 defensive lineman for the 2026 class as well. Auburn currently ranks No. 78 according to 247Sports with seven commits for 2026. The Tigers currently do not have a defensive lineman committed to the class. Hugh Freeze and staff saw the defensive line as a position of need following the 2024 season. The Tigers signed four players to the 2024 recruiting class and added three more in the transfer portal. They will need to continue to add to that position for future seasons. It will be important for Auburn fans to keep an eye on the commitment of Wilson. Tigers' fans have become concerned about where Auburn is with its recruiting for 2026. Adding Wilson will ease some of the nervousness on the Plains.
