Prior to Saturday’s game against the Tampa Bay Rays, Yankees manager Aaron Boone delivered a couple injury updates, including the status of top prospect Jasson Dominguez and veteran DJ LeMahieu.

Dominguez moves to DH in Single-A.
Boone provided an exciting update on Jasson Dominguez’s route return to the major leagues following Tommy John surgery on September 20, 2023. The 21-year-old will begin his rehab assignment with the Single-A Tampa Tarpons on Tuesday. According to Boone, Dominguez will DH for the first two weeks of the assignment before returning to the field.

Dominguez remains the Yankees’ top prospect, but has dropped to No. 37 overall in the MLB Pipeline rankings.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has a new deal.

So do team president Mark Donovan and general manager Brett Veach. The Chiefs announced that they have signed all three to contract extensions.

The Chiefs didn’t announce terms of the deals but said that “the leadership team of the Chiefs will remain in place for the long-term future.” 

The deal will also make Andy Reid the NFL’s highest-paid head coach. 

“Mark, Brett and Andy have achieved historic success together, and we are thrilled that they will continue in their roles for many years to come,” said Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt.

Josh Hart raised his arms and extended three fingers on each hand on his go-ahead 3-pointer from the top of the arc with 24.4 seconds left that was finally enough to send the New York Knicks past the Philadelphia 76ers 118-115 in Game 6 on Thursday night and into the second round of the playoffs.

Jalen Brunson had 41 points and 12 assists to lead the Knicks, who are set for an Eastern Conference semifinal matchup with Indiana. The Pacers beat Milwaukee in six games and advanced to the second round for the first time in 10 years.

Jalen Brunson is the first NBA player to score 40 or more to close out a series since Michael Jordan for Chicago against Cleveland in 1989.

In a series defined by tight games, Hart hit the clutch shot that made it 114-111 and again had “Let’s go Knicks! Let’s go Knicks!” chants echoing throughout Philly’s home court. Joel Embiid scored a bucket but fouled out on the next possession. Donte DiVincenzo sealed New York’s win with two free throws.

“The fourth quarter was just one big play after the next,” Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said.
