Joel Embiid Questionable Again For Sunday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Celtics. The MVP has a sprained right knee.

Texas Rangers catcher Mitch Garver (knee) took batting practice on Friday. The 32-year-old played only six games this season, going 5-for-19 with six RBI and two homers.

Willson Contreras Starting At Designated Hitter
St. Louis Cardinals catcher/designated hitter Willson Contreras (ankle) is serving as the team's designated hitter on Saturday and batting third against the Detroit Tigers. The veteran backstop hurt his ankle in Friday's series opener against Detroit but he's healthy enough to take at-bats on Saturday, which is a good sign. Andrew Knizner is batting ninth […]
