Mets rotation loses Tylor Megill for at least 1 month with right elbow sprain

Mets rotation loses Tylor Megill for at least 1 month with right elbow sprain

ATLANTA (AP) — The New York Mets lost a member of their rotation for at least one month on Tuesday when right-hander Tylor Megill was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right elbow sprain. Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said before Tuesday night's game against the Atlanta Braves the team would wait for inflammation in Megill's elbow to decrease before being able to determine the severity of the injury. Mendoza says the "best-case scenario" is the inflammation goes away in as few as seven days. "Then we're looking at four to five weeks," Mendoza said. Megill is the second Mets starter to land on the IL in four days. Right-handerKodai Sengawas placed on the 15-day injured list on Friday with a right hamstring strain. The strain is considered mild and Senga will be shut down for two weeks before being re-evaluated. The 29-year-old Megill is 5-5 with a 3.95 ERA in 14 starts. Mendoza says the team likely will find a spot starter to fill Megill's next start on Friday at Philadelphia. The rotation could have more options soon as the team is awaiting the returns ofFrankie Montas (lat) and Sean Manaea (oblique)from injuries. Right-hander Justin Garza was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to fill Megill's roster spot on Tuesday. Mendoza said Montas and Manaea would not be among the pitchers considered for Friday's start. Montas will make his fifth minor league start on Friday with Syracuse and could then be ready to come off the injured list. Megill lasted only 3 2/3 innings in his last start, an8-4 lossto Tampa Bay on Saturday. He gave up seven hits and six runs, three earned. Megill was 4-5 with a 4.04 ERA in 16 games, including 15 starts, in 2024. Manaea reported for spring training with astrained right obliqueand made his first rehab appearance on June 6. His next rehab appearance is scheduled for Friday with Syracuse. The Mets had two players begin minor league injury rehabilitation stints on Tuesday. Left-hander Brooks Railey, recovering from Tommy John surgery in May 2024, began his rehab with Single-A St. Lucie. Third baseman Mark Vientos (right hamstring strain) began his rehab with Syracuse. ___ AP MLB:https://apnews.com/hub/mlb

Mariska Hargitay Was Left Behind at the Scene of the Crash That Killed Her Mom, Jayne Mansfield

Getty Mariska Hargitay has made her directorial debut with the documentaryMy Mom Jayne,which premiered at Tribeca Film Festival on June 13. In the film, Mariska learns from her siblings that she was briefly left behind at the scene of the car crash that killed their mother Jayne Mansfield in 1967. Mariska has been supported by her husband, Peter Hermann, and their three children throughout the press tour for the film. Mariska Hargitaywas just 3 years old when her mother was killed in a horrific car crash. Mariska and two of her siblings, Mickey Jr. and Zoltan, who were sleeping in the backseat of the car, survived the crash. Almost 60 years later, Mariska is now ready to explore the ramifications of the life-changing accident. Hargitay makes her directorial debut with the documentary,My Mom Jayne,which explores her mother's tragic death and the events that followed. The film premiered at Tribeca on June 13. In the film, Mariska looks back on the night of the crash—and even learns a few new details. After all, she remembers nothing. "I don't remember the accident," she said toVanity Fair. "I don't even remember being told that my mother had died." Getty While speaking to her brothers, Mickey and Zoltan, who were 8 and 6 respectively at the time of the crash, Mariska learned that she was accidentally left behind at the scene of the crash before the rescue team returned to pull her from the wreckage. Mickey recalls waking up after the crash in a new car with a blonde woman who had rescued him from the wreck. At first, he thought it was his mother. Meanwhile, Zoltan woke up and realized that their younger sister wasn't in the car. He asked where she was, and the rescue team realized that they must have accidentally left her at the scene. Getty They hurried back and found Mariska had been lodged underneath the passenger seat. She suffered an injury that left a scar on one side of her head. As Ellen Hargitay, Mariska's step-mother, says in the film, "Thank God Zolie woke up," Ellen says. Mariska, Mickey Jr., and Zoltan were raised by her father, Mickey Hargitay. In her 20s,Mariska learned that her biological father was, in fact, Italian singer Nelson Sardelli, with whom Jayne Mansfield had had an affair. Getty Throughout her press tour forMy Mom Jayne,Mariska has been constantly supported by her husband, actorPeter Hermann, and their three children, August, Amaya, and Andrew.

Machine Gun Kelly Thanks Megan Fox for Giving Him ‘the Ultimate Gift’, Reveals Their Daughter’s Name

Machine Gun Kelly Thanks Megan Fox for Giving Him 'the Ultimate Gift', Reveals Their Daughter's Name

Machine Gun Kellyhas finally revealed the name of his daughter, who he welcomed withMegan Foxin March — and it's fierce! On Tuesday, June 17, the "Cliché" singer, 35,took to Instagramto share a video of himself playing the ukulele while their child — who could not be seen — bounced in a rocker. MGK (real name: Colson Baker) captioned the post, "Saga Blade Fox-Baker." Though he turned the comments off on the post, it garnered nearly 60,000 "likes" in an hour. He later edited the caption to include, "thank you for the ultimate gift," tagging Fox's Instagram account. (Fox, for her part, has wiped her Instagram clean.) In March, MGK revealed that he and Fox, 39, had welcomed their first child together. (MGK is already dad to daughter Casie, 15, while Fox shares Noah, 12, Bodhi, 11, and Journey, 8, with ex-husbandBrian Austin Green.) "She's finally here!! Our little celestial seed," the rocker wrote via Instagram, noting their baby girl was born on March 27. He then followed up his post with an Instagram story to clarify that the former couple had not actually named their child "Celestial Seed" — and that theJennifer's Bodystar would "tell you the name when we're ready." MGK and Fox's rollercoaster relationship began in 2020 and was reported to have ended in 2024, shortly after the couple revealed they were expecting. Last November, Fox shared a since-deleted post featuring a photo of herself debuting her baby bump while covered in what appeared to be black paint. "Nothing is ever really lost," the actress captioned the photos, seemingly referencing a previous pregnancy loss the former couple suffered. "Welcome back 👼🏼❤️." Despite their split, it seems as though Fox and MGK are making it work as co-parents. During his June 14 appearance at Warped Tour, a fan approached him while wearing a t-shirt with Fox's face. "So sick," he said, before asking to take a picture. In April,Peoplereported that the former flames were focused on their daughter and not rekindling their romance — yet. "They're not making any big decisions about their future together as a couple because they just want to focus on the present and this new chapter as parents to their daughter together," a sourcetold the outlet.

San Antonio Spurs reportedly 'have not been the aggressive team' in Kevin Durant sweepstakes

San Antonio Spurs reportedly 'have not been the aggressive team' in Kevin Durant sweepstakes

While there is mutual interest between the San Antonio Spurs and Kevin Durant, according to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Spurs "have not been the aggressive team" in trade talks for the Phoenix Suns forward,Charania reported Tuesday on "The Pat McAfee Show." Charania first reiteratedhis report from the weekend: Durant's three preferred destinations are the Spurs, the Houston Rockets and the Miami Heat. The Spurs, however, aren't on the same timeline as the Rockets and Heat, said Charania, who believes those two suitors are more realistic landing spots for Durant than San Antonio at the moment. "I think they're really going to be stocking their assets for potentially a bigger move, bigger player, someone that may fit their timeline,"Charania said Tuesday of the Spurs, via the "McAfee Show." "But the Spurs have had a level of interest. Would I say that they're among the leaders right now? ... No, I wouldn't." Charania pointed out that the Spurs have quite a bit of team-building flexibility this offseason. They're well-positioned with a potentially generational center in Victor Wembanyama, plus a one-time All-Star and still-27-year-old guard in De'Aaron Fox. Additionally, they have this year's NBA Rookie of the Year, guard Stephon Castle. And San Antonio is equipped with the No. 2 and No. 14 picks in this year's draft. The Spurs haven't made the playoffs since 2019, but they have one of the brightest futures in the league right now, with legendary head coach Gregg Popovichnow serving as president of basketball operationsandMitch Johnson filling his big shoesas coach. Together, with general manager Brian Wright, San Antonio hopes to replicate its longstanding success from the 2000s to the mid-2010s. "They want to have a similar run and be set up similarly to [former Spurs general manager and current team CEO] R.C. Buford and Gregg Popovich," Charania said on the "McAfee Show." "And, in their minds, they have a ton of assets to where, if there's a guy that becomes available that's on that timeline, potentially you go out and make that deal. That's not to say that they don't have interest in Kevin Durant. They do. And potentially they would make an offer, and I'm sure they have discussed different frameworks, but what the other teams are offering is just a little bit more aggressive." Charania mentioned that, even though Minnesota isn't on Durant's list of preferred destinations, the Timberwolves are still a wild-card team to consider. He explained that Minnesota wouldn't be the first team to trade for a player who didn't want to play for them. Charania compared that potential scenario to the Toronto Raptors trading for Kawhi Leonard in the summer of 2018. The Raptors won an NBA championship in 2019, but Leonard still signed with the Los Angeles Clippers in free agency. "Honestly, every day that goes by, I think it's more likely that, if [the Timberwolves are] involved here, it's going to be seeking out multi-team trade scenarios — three-, four-team deals, whether they get Kevin Durant or whether they're just involved in a deal that's facilitating that,"Charania said Tuesday on the "McAfee Show." "But Minnesota is still very much engaged and active in these conversations." Durant, who has spent two full seasons with the Suns, is on an expiring contract worth $54.7 million for the 2025-26 season. After he's traded, on July 6, he'll be eligible to sign a two-year extension worth up to $122 million. If Durant decides to wait six months after the trade, though, that extension could be worth as much as $124 million,per Charania. The Golden State Warriors almost acquired Durant at this season's trade deadline. Instead, Durant established that he didn't want a second act in the Bay Area and would rather stay with the Suns for the rest of the 2024-25 campaign. Durant will turn 37 in September. The 15-time NBA All-Star has previously played for the Seattle SuperSonics/Oklahoma City Thunder (2007-16), the Warriors (2016-19) and the Brooklyn Nets (2019-23). This season, he averaged 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game in 62 appearances. The Suns, despite the highest payroll in league history, finished 36-46 and missed the playoffs for the first time since 2019-20.

Chiefs star Chris Jones on Trey Smith signing franchise tag: 'It's good Trey didn't take my approach'

Chiefs star Chris Jones on Trey Smith signing franchise tag: 'It's good Trey didn't take my approach'

It sounds like Chris Jones has some regrets about the way his messy contract standoff in 2023 shook out. The Kansas City Chiefs star defensive tackle hinted at that remorse when discussing right guard Trey Smith signing the Chiefs' franchise tag this year. Smith, who Kansas City still hopes to ink to a long-term deal,showed upto the first day of mandatory minicamp Tuesday. "Well, it's good Trey didn't take my approach," Jones joked after practice before drawing laughter from reporters and then cracking a smile. Jones continued,via KCTV5:"Trey's doing the right thing, man. Don't take no advice from me. I did things a little different. Don't take no advice from me. "Trey, you in a good place." #ChiefsDT Chris Jones talked about how Trey Smith is handling the franchise tag/desire for long-term deal:"It's good Trey didn't take my approach. Trey is doing the right thing ... Franchise tag is like $25 million, right? That's the big bucks."@KCTV5pic.twitter.com/M8jBNk0Ev8 — Mark Poulose (@MarkPoulose)June 17, 2025 Looking for a new contract while entering the final season of a four-year, $80 million deal, Jones held out throughout the 2023 preseason. At the time, San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa was also holding out and eventuallysigned a five-year, $170 million deal. Jones was looking for a raise, and the first-team All-Pro and Super Bowl championhinted he was willing to sit out until at least Week 8for added leverage. He started to follow through on those stakes, watching a Week 1 loss to a soon-to-be breakout Lions teamfrom a suite at Arrowhead Stadium. The Mississippi State product finally put an end to the drama, which included millions of dollars of fines, when he agreed to alucrative, one-year contracton Sept. 11 of that year. That short-term solution set the stage for thefive-year, $95 million guaranteed deal he signedthe following offseason. Even though Jones didn't waver in his loyalty to the Chiefs during that saga, he did hold out and create a loud, drawn-out distraction that could have been avoided. Smith has been steering clear of that circus by signing the non-exclusive franchise tag, which will earn the 26-year-old guard $23.4 million unless he agrees to a new deal before the July 15 deadline. "Franchise tag is like $25 million, right?" Jones said Tuesday, via KCTV5. "That's the big bucks. Yeah, he's in a good place. Stay healthy, be ready to compete in training camp, which I know Trey will be, and we're excited to have him around." Protecting quarterback Patrick Mahomes is priority No. 1 in Kansas City, especially after last season's Super Bowl defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles, and the Chiefs see Smith as a key ingredient to that recipe. Smith, a sixth-round pick out of Tennessee in 2021, made his first Pro Bowl last season after allowing only one sack and 34 pressures, both single-season career lows, according to Pro Football Focus. "I think the future plans for the Chiefs is to have Trey around," Jones said, via KCTV5. "He's a pivotal part of our offensive line. To have him back out here — he's superior guard in this league. Could be an All-Pro this year. "His body of work speaks for itself, so we're glad to have him back out. He brings a lot of energy to the offensive line, and it's a good way for us to compete on the defensive line."

Chappell Roan admits backlash hurts when 'people started hating me for me'

Chappell Roan admits backlash hurts when 'people started hating me for me'

Chappell Roanis drawing the line between being an artist and being herself: Kayleigh Amstutz. The "Pink Pony Club" hitmaker, who switches between her alter ago and her legal name, has been candid about the personal pitfalls of fame and is opening up once again.In a new article for Interview magazinepublished June 17, Roan gets candid with her industry peerSZA. When SZA asked Roan if she cared about the "backlash" she has experienced, Roan admitted that a certain type of criticism has personally affected her. "I didn't, until people started hating me for me and not for my art. When it's not about my art anymore, it's like, 'They hate me because I'm Kayleigh, not because they hate the songs that I make.' That's when it changed," she said. When the "30 for 30" collaborator pointed out that critics "literally don't know Kayleigh," Roan agreed: "They don't" know her but added that "when things are taken out of context, people assume so much about you." Roan, who said "I didn't realize I'd care so much," added that "when it comes to my art," she said people "can think whatever you want. You are allowed to hate it with all your guts." However, the "Giver" crooner jokingly asked whether she's "the most insufferable (person) of our generation" when "it comes to me and my personality." SZA replied, by telling Roan that "if you are, then I really am."The reigning Grammy best new artist recipientadded that "it's comforting to know" that Roan cares "because from the outside, you can come off as so superhuman." Throughout her meteoric rise, Roan has received a slew of backlash for controversial comments and behavior considered offensive by some amid critical acclaim for her music. Most recently, during aMarch interviewon the podcast"Call Her Daddy,"Roan garnered backlash when she said that all of her friends with children under the age of 5 "are in hell." "I actually don't know anyone who's like, happy and has children at this age," the 27-year-old pop singer toldhost Alex Cooper. "I literally have not met anyone who's happy, anyone who has like, light in their eyes, anyone who has slept." Celebrities tell all about aging,marriage and Beyoncé in these 10 bingeable memoirs In September, Roan addressed pressure from fans to discuss politics in two interviews. In the first, withRolling Stone, she said she doesn't "have a side because I hate both sides." She doubled down on the sentiment days later in an interview withThe Guardian, telling the British outlet that she didn't "feel pressured to endorse someone" in the 2024 presidential election. "There's problems on both sides. I encourage people to use your critical thinking skills, use your vote – vote small, vote for what's going on in your city," she said. Roan also garnered attention last year for her controversial conflicts with celebrity photographers.

'Modern Family' star quotes classic scene in coming out post: 'I'm gay!'

Lily from "Modern Family" is all grown up, and she's celebratingPride Monthright. Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, who starred asMitchell and Cameron'sdaughter Lily Tucker-Pritchett on the ABC sitcom for nine seasons,took to Instagramto share that she is bisexual — and she did so by quoting a famous scene from the show. In the post, Anderson-Emmons lip-synched to audio from a "Modern Family" scene where her character Lily announces, while at a restaurant with her parents, "I'm gay! I'm gay!" She captioned the clip, "People keep joking so much abt me being gay when I literally am (I'm bi)." "Happy pride month to all and to all a goodnight hehehe," she added in the caption. The original clip comes from the Season 4 episode "The Future Dunphys," in which Lily announces that she is gay. But it soon becomes clear this is because she's under the impression that the fact that her parents are gay makes her gay. Mitch and Cam subsequently take Lily out to a Vietnamese restaurant to teach her about her heritage. But Lily has no interest, declaring that she hates Vietnam and that "I'm not (Vietnamese), I'm gay!" Tim McGraw's daughterGracie McGraw comes out as queer: 'Happy freaking Pride' In a May interview with Entertainment Tonight, Anderson-Emmons noted that the scene has become "unescapable" for her online. "My comment section, I could post anything, and there will be at least one comment that's like, 'I hate Vietnam!'" she said. "Honestly, I'm here for it, though." 'Modern Family' star Eric Stonestreettalks weight loss, Mounjaro and facing stigma Anderson-Emmons also revealed to Entertainment Tonight that she has been rewatching the show for the first time. "I started to realize, 'Oh, wow, people have seen more of me at that age than I have seen me at that age, and they remember more than I do," she explained. "So I was like, 'I should go back and watch.'" Anderson-Emmons starred as Lily on "Modern Family" beginning in the show's third season, when she was four years old, and stayed a part of the cast through the series finale in 2020. She is also a singer and released the single "Telephones and Traffic" in May.
