Aaron Rodgers, who re-signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers this offseason and said that his 22nd NFL season will be his last, reiterated his desire to retire at training camp. “This it it,” he said.
The thought of retirement has hovered around Rodgers for quite some time now, including this offseason, when the Steelers, and the rest of the NFL, for that matter, waited patiently to see if this was indeed the end of his career.
In his first season with the Steelers in 2025, Rodgers went 10-6, throwing for 3,322 yards with a 65.7% completion rate and 24 touchdowns with seven interceptions.
The Steelers have bolstered its offense this season, adding veteran wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. in a trade with the Indianapolis Colts.
The New York Yankees made a flurry of moves following their loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday night, one of which was optioning outfielder Jasson Dominguez to Triple-A.
The Yankees made the decision to clear room for newly-acquired outfielder Heliot Ramos, who will be joining the ballclub on Tuesday after coming over at the MLB trade deadline.
While the biggest story of Monday evening was New York also promoting top shortstop prospect George Lombard Jr., the demotion of Dominguez should not go unnoticed.
The former top prospect has fallen on hard times with the Yankees, as he has slashed just .230/.270/.380 over 212 big-league plate appearances this season. We all know about his defensive struggles, but recently, he has even made some base-running errors.
New York chose Spencer Jones over Dominguez this time, largely because Jones can play center field. Dominguez is strictly a corner outfielder, and with the arrival of Ramos, his role has been essentially removed.
The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum officially welcomed three new members on Sunday. This year’s induction ceremony in Cooperstown, New York, honored the 2026 Hall of Fame class, led by 10-time Gold Glover Andruw Jones. The three-person Hall of Fame class is the smallest since just two players, Fred McGriff and Scott Rolen, were inducted in 2022.
To summarize this year’s Hall of Fame class:
Outfielders Carlos Beltrán and Andruw Jones were voted into the Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers Association of America.
Second baseman Jeff Kent was voted into Cooperstown by the Hall of Fame’s Contemporary Baseball Era Committee.
The three new members bring the Hall’s count to 354, of which 281 are players.
As always, the Hall of Fame induction ceremony took place on the lawn outside the Clark Sports Center in Cooperstown. Thousands of baseball fans were in attendance.

New U.S. dietary guidelines, advocating for increased consumption of protein while advising Americans to reduce intake of ultra-processed foods and added sugars have been released.
These guidelines, updated every five years by the Agriculture and Health and Human Services departments, align with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “Make America Healthy Again” initiative, although they fall short of some experts’ expectations for more radical changes.
The guidelines emphasize eating whole foods, including fresh vegetables, whole grains, and dairy products, while urging consumers to avoid highly processed foods like chips and candy. The guidelines suggest limiting saturated fat intake to no more than 10% of daily calories, recommending whole-food sources like meat and avocados.
The new guidelines also propose increasing protein intake to 1.2 to 1.6 grams per kilogram of body weight. For a 150-pound person, this translates to 81.6 to 109 grams of protein daily. The guidelines recommend three servings of full-fat dairy per day for a 2,000-calorie diet.
