Stephanie White Makes Indiana Fever Admission Without Caitlin Clark
Stephanie White Makes Indiana Fever Admission Without Caitlin Clark originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Stephanie White and the Indiana Fever are having their best stretch of the 2025 WNBA season with their longest winning streak of three games. And they have done it without point guard Caitlin Clark. Advertisement On Saturday, White and the Fever will look for their 10th win this season, hosting Dearica Hamby and the Los Angeles Sparks at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Fever lost Clark to a groin injury during their June 24 win over the Seattle Storm. After dropping their next game, ironically against the Sparks, Indiana bounced back with a win over the Dallas Wings. Then they went on to capture the Commissioner's Cup championship by defeating the league-leading Minnesota Lynx. Finally, on Thursday, they dominated the Las Vegas Aces by 27. And White seems to like what she has seen from her team without their All-Star captain. Advertisement Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White propels the team to a three-game winning Johnson-Imagn Images Ahead of Saturday's game, White joined the media for a press conference. When asked about finding a team identity over the recent winning surge, White had a lot to say. 'We found a little bit more of an identity defensively," White said. "With this group, I think, you know, again, it goes back to our activity level. Our ability to be active, aware, and anticipate actions that are coming. Our execution. Being connected, and I think we are. I think we're continuing offensively to move the ball a little bit better to find our spots individually, and I think that that's helped us." White finished by saying she doesn't know the final product of her team with Clark still out. Advertisement "I don't know that we're where we're going to be because Caitlin hasn't been on the floor," White added. "That's obviously a huge piece for us in what we do. I'm proud of this group and the way that they've been able to find that connectivity on both ends and really set the tone on the defensive end.' Following the Sparks game, the Fever will be back in action on Wednesday, hosting the Golden State Valkyries.

Yankees makemove to add veteran third baseman to system
Yankees makemove to add veteran third baseman to system originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Yankees have signed veteran infielder Jeimer Candelario to a minor league contract and assigned him to Triple‑A Scranton/Wilkes‑Barre, according to Conor Foley of the YES Network. Advertisement While the move may not register as blockbuster news, it quietly addresses an area of need: third base. Candelario has logged nearly 700 career games at third in the majors, including 12 starts at the hot corner earlier this season with the Reds. And with the Yankees struggling to find consistency at the position, every option is on the table.

DJ LeMahieu has been playing second since he came off the injured list. The Yankees are said to be in the market for a third baseman at the trade deadline, but with the news Saturday that Clarke Schmidt will likely need season-ending surgery there's a long list of needs. Cincinnati recently released the 31-year-old switch-hitting Candelario after hitting just .113 with one home run in 22 games, his season derailed by a lingering back injury. But he's not far removed from a strong 2023 season when he hit .251 with 22 home runs and 70 RBIs across time with the Nationals and Cubs. Advertisement This is a classic low-risk, potential-reward signing. If Candelario can get healthy and find his swing again in Scranton, he could give the Yankees a veteran third baseman with actual upside. He's not a savior, and this isn't the blockbuster movie Yankees fans were hoping for.. But for a team trying to plug a lot of roster holes and survive the grind, it's a smart move.

Frankie Montas gives Mets' banged-up rotation a lift with reinforcements on the way
Access the Mets beat like never before Don't miss Mike Puma's text messages from Queens and beyond — he's giving Sports+ subscribers the inside buzz on the Mets. Sign up Now The days of holding the staff together with baling wire and chewing gum might be in the past. Frankie Montas gave the Mets what they needed Saturday, Kodai Senga and Sean Manaea are on the mend and could rejoin the club in Cincinnati next weekend, and the dream rotation that has not yet taken even a full spin could become a reality within a fortnight. Baseball life has taken a turn for the better on the Queens side of the Whitestone after a second consecutive bludgeoning of the boys from The Bronx, this time 12-6 on Saturday that represented the Mets' fourth straight victory after dropping 13 of the preceding 16 games. Now, with opener Chris Devenski scheduled to take the ball for Sunday's Subway Series finale before Senga and Manaea are in line for minor league rehab assignments this week, the Mets may not be all that far away from presenting their preferred Senga-Manaea-Montas-Clay Holmes-David Peterson rotation for the very first time. Before this six-homer barrage — three from either side, two off the bat of Pete Alonso — got underway, manager Carlos Mendoza was asked to name his starting pitcher for the series finale even as his team was still facing exigent circumstances on the mound.
