Carson Wentz Listed As Day-To-Day

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is officially listed as day-to-day due to a soft tissue injury. While that sounds concerning, there doesn't seem to be a lot of worry around the organization about their franchise quarterback. Wentz will certainly take it easy all week in practice and may even sit out the majority of the […]

Jalen Reagor Expected To Miss Four Weeks

Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor is expected to miss four weeks due to a shoulder injury. Reagor suffered a slight tear in his labrum that will not require surgery, but will require extended rest.

Miami Marlins outfielder Magneuris Sierra has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a strained right hamstring. Sierra was hitting .278/.372/.417 with four stolen bases.

It's unclear when Cervelli suffered the injury, but he essentially removed himself from Game 2 of Saturday's double header.
