You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Clay Holmes may be pitching his final innings in New York. The injured Mets right-hander is among several veterans the club has made available in trade talks, per ESPN. Holmes himself kept it straightforward Friday, saying he just wants to be pitching his best, wherever that ends up being. A move feels closer than not.
Shifting to Chicago, Pete Crow-Armstrong is making noise off the field too. The Cubs outfielder tops the projected allocation for the two thousand twenty six Major League Baseball pre-arbitration bonus pool, leading all players in what amounts to the league's formal recognition of elite young talent performing well before their payday arrives. PCA is building a case that his best is still ahead.
And in Green Bay, the Packers' famously open books are raising some flags. Their latest annual report confirms the franchise received four hundred fifty three point two million dollars in shared NFL revenue, part of fourteen point five billion distributed league-wide. But CEO Ed Policy is sounding the alarm, warning that adjustments may be necessary to keep the league's only publicly owned franchise financially competitive long term. That's a conversation that isn't going away.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
