Blue Jays Should Take Best Draft Player
Sportsnet analysts suggest the Toronto Blue Jays should prioritize talent over signability concerns in this year's MLB draft. The recommendation comes amid discussions about avoiding 'slot games' that could prevent the team from selecting the best player available.
By focusing on pure talent rather than draft slot considerations, the Blue Jays could potentially strengthen their roster for both immediate and long-term success, according to the analysis presented in the video segment. trojkonferencja2024.pl
Marruecos piensa ya en el Mundial 2030 tras quedar eliminado ante Francia
La mayoría de las dos o tres decenas de miles de españoles que residen en Marruecos y los cerca de un millón de marroquíes de origen afincados en España animaron a su manera a los Leones del Atlas hasta su caída en la noche del jueves ante la selección de Francia. Con el pitido final, muchos de ellos respiraron aliviados al verse truncada una eventual semifinal, el próximo martes, entre los equipos de ambos lados del Estrecho. Pero si la Roja supera a Bélgica en la noche de este viernes en cuartos de final, es de esperar que Lamine Yamal (un icono en las camisetas juveniles vistas en las calles del país magrebí) y sus compañeros de la selección española sean jaleados en las semifinales contra Francia con ululantes albórbolas de regocijo femenino y los ensordecedores toques de panderos y vuvuzelas de los hombres.
Tadej Pogacar’s Tour de France mastery leaves rivals in his wake and asking: ‘What now?’
Tim Merlier powers to win on stage seven in sprint
Pogacar keeps overall advantage over Vingegaard
Tim Merlier of the Soudal-Quick Step team won the seventh stage of the Tour de France in a classic sprinter’s finish on the banks of the Garonne in Bordeaux.
As the Tour headed away from the Pyrenees, through Gascony towards the Atlantic coast, a lull settled over a shell-shocked peloton as it came to terms with the demonstration of domination from Tadej Pogacar in Thursday’s mountain stage to Gavarnie-Gèdre.

Only two running backs in the NFL have carried the ball more than 300 times in each of the last two seasons, but it sounds like the Colts wouldn't mind if Jonathan Taylor's streak ends there.
It's not a question of effectiveness as Taylor has run for 3,016 yards and 29 touchdowns on his 626 totes, but running backs coach DeAndre Smith pointed out the correlation between usage and injury risk as a reason why the team would like to find other options that would allow the running game to continue to flourish while Taylor is getting a chance to rest during games.
"We definitely need to find ways to take some of that workload off him," Smith said, via Stephen Holder of ESPN.com. "If I can find another guy or two that can take some of those carries off, he's just going to be that much better. So, it's definitely been a constant conversation. I'm aware of it. When he's healthy, we've got a chance to win every game. So, that's always the first thing I think about: making sure he's available every week."
Taylor played every game in 2025, but missed three games in 2024 and 13 games over the previous two seasons.
There's no surefire answer on the roster at the moment as 2025 fifth-rounder DJ Giddens only ran 26 times as a rookie and 2026 seventh-rounder Seth McGowan is joined by undrafted free agents further down the depth chart. If one of those players doesn't flash quickly in camp, the Colts may have to look elsewhere for the kind of help that Smith would like to give Taylor come the fall.
