The 22-year-old outfielder made MLB history in the Giants’ 14-4 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday at Oracle Park, becoming the youngest player ever to record at least five RBI in back-to-back games since it became an official stat in 1920. Matos got things started right away on Saturday, giving San Francisco an early lead after launching a three-run home run into the left-field bleachers. Matos finished Saturday’s win with six RBI, going 3-for-5 with a homer and a double. This came on the heels of an outstanding performance in the Giants’ 10-5 win on Friday night, where Matos…

Replacing Saquon Barkley with Devin Singletary isn’t enough for the New York Giants to keep their running game strong. Another way would be to sign former NFL rushing champion Kareem Hunt for short-yardage and red zone work. It’s a credible idea put forward by Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox. He believes “Devin Singletary is poised to be the new starter, but the Giants will likely employ a committee approach.” A committee approach makes sense to try and replace a back as versatile and gifted as two-time Pro Bowler Barkley, who joined the Philadelphia Eagles in free agency. Singletary will…

Ahly’s star Mohamed Abdelmonem has attracted interest from French giants AS Monaco as well as Turkey’s Galatasaray, according to reports. Abdelmonem continues to garner interest from Europe, having already been linked with moves to French side FC Nantes as well as several English clubs. 25-year-old is regarded as one of the best center-backs in Africa, helping his side Al Ahly lift the CAF Champions League last season, and has a chance to win it back-to-back against Espérance this year. And it seems like the speculation over his future is not ending any time soon as French reports have now revealed…

DeAndre Hopkins The Cowboys would be an ideal landing spot for Titans WR DeAndre Hopkins. The Dallas Cowboys would be an ideal landing spot for this veteran receiver. In a trade scenario proposed by Inside the Star’s Mario Herrera Jr., the Cowboys would acquire five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins from the Tennessee Titans in exchange for a fifth-round pick. Herrera argues that although Hopkins is coming off a rebound season — he posted 75 catches for 1,057 yards and seven touchdowns with lackluster quarterback play — the Titans could look to get younger and stockpile draft capital. “Tennessee…

The Dallas Mavericks have a chance to advance to the Western Conference Finals for the second time in three years if they’re able to close out the Oklahoma City Thunder at home in Game 6. Dallas and Oklahoma City have traded punches throughout the series, but it was the former that took the upper hand in the series with a gutsy Game 5 win on the road. Luka Doncic has been battling through multiple lower-body injuries, but gave the team everything he had in Game 5 with a 31-point, 11-assist, 10-rebound triple-double. Doncic may not be healthy, but he’s found…

The 49ers appear all but set to go into a second season with Colton McKivitz as their starting right tackle. The team has signed recent Titans stopgap RT Chris Hubbard, but no clear threat to McKivitz appears on the team’s roster. That could certainly have changed, in the view of several, had the Ravens not addressed their tackle need in Round 2. Forty-two picks after Pittsburgh selected Troy Fautanu, Baltimore chose the Washington Huskies’ other tackle starter, Roger Rosengarten. In the view of many around the league, the 49ers were preparing to draft Rosengarten with their No. 63 overall selection,…

After spending two weeks on the injured list, right-hander Grayson Rodriguez will return to the Orioles starting rotation this weekend. Grayson Rodriguez was placed on the 15-day injured list as a “precaution,” according to Orioles manager Brandon Hyde. Rodriguez threw 5 ⅔ innings against the Yankees on April 29th and woke up with shoulder soreness the next day. The 24-year-old right-hander missed time for a right shoulder strain while with Triple-A Norfolk in 2022. Grayson Rodriguez, now in his second big league season, has pitched to a 4-1 record and a 3.71 ERA. He said earlier this month that his…

Five-star wide receiver Dakorien Moore announced he would be reopening his recruitment on Thursday. The five-star wide receiver initially committed to LSU on Aug. 12. Moore had previously told On3 that LSU was his dream school, but he was still being heavily pursued by the Texas Longhorns, Oregon Ducks, and Ohio State Buckeyes. Following Moore’s decommitment, LSU’s 2025 recruiting class ranks No. 2 nationally and No. 1 in the SEC. Moore is the No. 3 overall prospect and No. 1 wide receiver in the class of 2025. He ranks as the No. 1 player in Texas, according to the On3…
