After a fantastic 2024 defensive line haul that netted David Stone, Jayden Jackson, Nigel Smith, Danny Okoye and Wyatt Gilmore, the Oklahoma Sooners have done a nice job adding talent upfront in the 2025 recruiting class.

It’s been a tough summer for the Toronto Blue Jays. Even when the Blue Jays welcomed Yimi García back from the 15-day injured list, another injury occurred. Last night, Blue Jays All-Star shortstop Bo Bichette exited the game after the sixth inning. Bichette limped out of the batter’s box after hitting a line drive to right field. It was announced after the game that Bichette suffered a right calf injury. This was the same calf strain Bichette dealt with, ultimately landing him on the injured list last month. His setback has now forced the Blue Jays to place Bichette back on the IL. Addison Barger is back up.

So, apparently, despite Ewers being a Texas native, you can take the boy out of the Buckeyes, but you can’t take the Buckeye out of the boy.
