They're shaped like a potato and tend to bake in hot weather, biologists say. That's why you will find cheeky little pikas in Colorado's mountains. But climate change could cause these critters' numbers to dwindle, according to wildlife experts. Like polar bears, Pikas may predict warmer temperatures, scientists say.

Cleveland, OH

The Browns waived Bell on Thursday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Bell, a 2022 third-round pick, failed to emerge as a regular starter in his first two seasons with Cleveland, but Cabot reports that the team hopes a reunion will be possible if he goes unclaimed on waivers. In Wednesday's practice Bell was limited with a quadriceps issue, but it looks like he's now healthy and wasn't waived with an injury designation.

David Bell: Let go by Cleveland

Cobb will not make his scheduled start Saturday due to a blister, Joe Noga of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports. Cobb was out in mid-August with a fractured nail and is now developing the beginnings of a blister on his index finger. The Guardians are being cautious with the right-hander and will instead turn to Gavin Williams on Saturday. It doesn't sound as though Cobb is currently tabbed for a return to the injured list.
