There will be no more drives into deep left field for Nick Castellanos with the Philadelphia Phillies. The team signaled the end of the Castellanos era on Monday, when it reportedly agreed to a one-year, $10 million deal with Adolis García, according to multiple reports.

With the move, García — who was non-tendered by the Texas Rangers in November — is expected to be the primary right fielder for the Phillies in 2026. While García struggled at the plate last season, hitting just .227/.271/.394, with 19 home runs, he’s considered a strong defensive addition. That’s something the Phillies lacked with Castellanos, who expressed frustration about being removed from games for defensive reasons last year.

While defense played into Philadelphia’s decision to sign García, the team is likely also hoping for a resurgent offensive year from the 32-year-old. After posting an All-Star season with the Rangers in 2023, García has seen his numbers decline the past two seasons, when he has slashed just .225/.278/.397.

Although García struggled in 2025, he show some signs that suggest he has one more strong season left in his bat. He saw a rebound in his exit velocity after it dipped in 2024. He also managed to cut his strikeout rate to a career-low 24.7%. Neither of those improvements resulted in a better year in 2025, but the Phillies might view both as promising signs that García can recoup some of his previous form in the short term. It helps that his main calling card — power — should play well in Citizens Bank Park, one of the best places to hit home runs in the majors.

With García expected to take over as the team’s primary right fielder, the Phillies need to make a decision on Castellanos. The 33-year-old is entering the final season of his five-year, $100 million deal and is set to make $20 million in 2026. Following the García signing, the Phillies are expected to trade or release Castellanos ahead of spring training.

Castellanos has also seen a decline in his performance at the plate in recent years, though he has actually hit better than García lately. Over the past two seasons, Castellanos has a .252/.303/.416 slash line. But frustration over his role last season, combined with his poor defense, was apparently enough for the Phillies to move on from the veteran.

Castellanos is still capable of popping home runs at a fair clip, but he saw his exit velocity and hard-hit rate drop in 2025, two possible signs of decline. Because of that, the Phillies might need to eat some of his contract if they want to trade the outfielder. Given his struggles on defense, Castellanos could be used as a designated hitter with his new club.

That isn’t an option for the Phillies after Kyle Schwarber re-signed with the team. With Schwarber firmly entrenched as the designated hitter, the Phillies are prioritizing improving their outfield defense. While the team rated well in most areas last season, defense was a weakness, with nearly every metric ranking the Phillies as a below-average defensive team.

Despite contending for multiple seasons, the Phillies are still searching for their first World Series championship since 2008. Bringing in García isn’t a blockbuster move, but one that should shore up one of the team’s biggest weaknesses.

Given how close the Phillies have come to winning it all in recent seasons, even a small upgrade could pay major dividends when the season is on the line in October.

As NBA trade season approaches, we looked at sellers last week, and now it’s time to look at some teams that could end up being buyers before the Feb. 5 trade deadline.

They are 20-5 and sitting atop the Eastern Conference, but this team is in dire need of more shooting and a firm secondary scoring option.

Lauri Markkanen makes a lot of sense, and facilitating a deal for him wouldn’t be particularly difficult, at least through the lens of matching salaries or attaching draft equity, because the Pistons control their future draft assets.

The beauty of Detroit’s flexibility is it can go in a bunch of different ways and it can also put Jaden Ivey on the table in negotiations. But the Pistons do need to move now, as Jalen Duren is up for a new contract next summer.

So, this is complicated.

The Knicks should be looking for whatever upgrade they can get their hands on to improve their depth and make a real Finals run with the East being as open as it is.

However, they’re so short on assets and less than $150,000 away from the second apron, so it’s almost unrealistic to expect them to do something major. That doesn’t mean they shouldn’t try, though.

This is a weird team, and the pieces may not all fit together. But that’s all the more reason to try to make a real upgrade, if one is there for the taking.

The contract of Tyus Jones ($7 million, expiring) could bring the Magic something, but their first apron buffer is at just $1.2 million, which in the NBA is peanuts.

As such, look for the Magic to package Jones with Jett Howard to see if they can extract a larger contract elsewhere.

Advertisement

They can get just about anyone they want to, but given the fact that they’re as good as they are right now, they can easily choose to stand pat.

They improved their depth last summer and remain $2.8 million under the second apron, which does give them some flexibility for the trade deadline.

More than likely, they’ll stick with their main core and instead make moves around the margin.

They’re not in bad shape by any stretch, so we’ll see what — if anything — they cook up.

It was tempting to leave them out, simply due to the Fred VanVleet injury, but at 16-6 and with Kevin Durant on the roster, that would be indefensible.

They need a point guard. Full stop. They probably won’t be able to acquire a big-name player, but they could attempt to use VanVleet’s $25 million salary to facilitate something.

Going into the rest of the season short on playmaking guards wouldn’t be advisable.

Victor Wembanyama will, more than likely, sign a full-max contract extension next offseason, which means the Spurs are on the clock to round out the roster as they see fit.

They have multiple expiring contracts in the form of Harrison Barnes and Kelly Olynyk ($32.4 million in total), a plethora of draft picks and plenty of young players, all of which could be combined to make a push for another star — such as Milwaukee’s Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Whichever player the Spurs identify, they have enough juice to do something big if they want to.

When you have a team with Luka Dončić, you’re almost always in a state of competitiveness, meaning you’re automatically looking to buy and add pieces around him.

While the Lakers will more than likely wait to do something big during the offseason, that doesn’t mean they won’t be on the lookout for something that makes sense.

They have expiring contracts, but very little draft equity and are short on young players. That’s a tough mix, which could lead them to try their luck in free agency instead.

Arizona is running it back leading the sport after what turned out to be another dominant week for the Wildcats.

Here’s everything you missed in the sixth week of the regular season, and the latest Associated Press poll.

Arizona survives early scare to stay perfect

For a brief minute, it looked like we were going to have a new No. 1 team this week.

But then, quickly, Arizona kicked into gear and picked up yet another commanding road win over a ranked opponent.

The Wildcats, despite entering the break down by two points for their first halftime deficit of the season, erupted in the second half to pick up a 21-point win over Alabama on Saturday night in Birmingham. Brayden Burries dropped 20 of his 28 points in the second half.

The win marked the fifth for Arizona against a ranked opponent this season, and the second straight after it beat Auburn by almost 30 earlier this month. The Wildcats also beat defending national champion Florida to open the season, and picked up wins over UCLA and UConn.

Naturally, that kept the Wildcats at No. 1 in the poll this week. Alabama fell to No. 16.

The Wildcats’ win was part of what was a relatively straightforward week of college basketball. There was just one change in the top 11 spots of the AP Poll, with Gonzaga and Houston swapping spots at Nos 7 and 8. Michigan held at No. 2, and Duke, which was off this past week, held at No. 3. Iowa State, which held on to beat Iowa on Thursday, remained at No. 4 and UConn then rounded out the top five.

The biggest surprise of the week came from Nebraska, which stunned Illinois with a last-second game-winner from Jamarques Lawrence on the road. That got the Huskers to a perfect 11-0, which is the best start in program history. The win over Illinois, which was their first ranked win, pushed them up eight spots to No. 15. The Illini, now with three losses, fell to No. 18.

As for Arizona, winning the Big 12 won’t be an easy thing to do There are four teams in the top 10 alone. But over the first stretch of the season, the Wildcats have clearly separated themselves from the rest of the pack in the league.

The Green Bay Packers’ loss to the Denver Broncos went from bad to worse Monday, as an MRI confirmed star pass rusher Micah Parsons sustained a torn ACL in Week 15, according to multiple media reports.

The injury will keep Parsons out at least nine months, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

That was the expected result after Parsons went down with a non-contact injury in the third quarter of the Packers’ 34-26 loss to the Broncos on Sunday. Parsons confirmed the news on social media, saying:

I may be sidelined, but I am not defeated. This injury is my greatest test—a moment God allowed to strengthen my testimony. I believe He walks with me through this storm and chose me for this fight because He knew my heart could carry it. I’m deeply grateful to the Packers organization and my teammates for their unwavering support, love, and belief in me during this season. I trust His timing, His plan, and His purpose. I will rise again.

It was Green Bay’s second major injury in the quarter, as wideout Christian Watson also left the contest with a chest injury. While Watson’s injury likely played a role in the Packers’ loss, the Parsons injury threatens to wreck the rest of the year for the Packers.

It’s impossible to overstate the impact Parsons had on the Packers after the team gave up two first-round draft picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark to acquire Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys.

Advertisement

In 14 games, Parsons had already racked up 12.5 sacks. He was well on his way toward setting a career-high in the stat prior to the injury. And Parsons managed that figure despite seeing limited snaps early in his tenure with the Packers due to a back injury and training camp holdout when he was with the Cowboys.

The injury comes at a miserable time for the Packers, who fell out of first place in the NFC North following Week 15’s loss. Things won’t get much easier for Green Bay, as the team has to play the Chicago Bears on Saturday night with the division on the line. Green Bay’s defense came up big against Caleb Williams and the Bears when the two teams met in Week 14. Without Parsons, it could be a different story this time around.

After that, the Packers will square off against the Baltimore Ravens and the Minnesota Vikings to close out the season. It’s not an easy slate.

While the injury is devastating, the Packers are still in good standing to make the playoffs. A win over the Bears in Week 16 would put the team in tremendous position to play in the postseason. Even with a loss, the Packers could secure a lower playoff seed if the team can finish strong down the stretch.

But the loss of Parsons would hit even harder in the postseason, when the Packers will face much stiffer competition and better quarterbacks. Parsons is capable of blowing up game plans with his elite pass-rushing ability. If teams no longer have to account for him, offenses should have an easier time ensuring passing plays remain on schedule.

With the injury expected to keep Parsons out multiple months, the Packers also face the possibility of not having the pass rusher early next season. That will depend on Parsons’ rehab and whether he can avoid setbacks as he attempts to come back from a devastating injury.

If there’s a silver lining, it’s that Parsons has plenty of time to get the Packers back on track. After his trade, Parsons signed a four-year, $188 million extension with the Packers, ensuring he’ll be a member of the franchise through the 2029 NFL season.

That gives Parsons plenty of time to still make an impact in Green Bay. His first year with the franchise may have ended in disappointment, but Parsons will be back striking fear into quarterbacks before long.

Toluca hero Alexis Vega stepped up to the spot for the second time. Once again, he delivered. Once again, Toluca became Liga MX champion.

In a penalty shootout that extended to a dozen rounds, Vega fired Toluca past Tigres and to a 12th Liga MX championship.

Advertisement

But even before he stepped up to the spot, the debates in Mexico already had begun. Were either of these teams, coming off the back of regular seasons in which they lost three games combined, worthy of being called grandes?

Mexico has four historic grandes, the most successful and best-supported teams over time. Three (Club América, Cruz Azul and Pumas) are in Mexico City with Chivas de Guadalajara also fitting the bill. But the Toluca win, its second in a row in Mexico’s short-tournament format, means it moves into a tie for second place all-time with Chivas when it comes to league titles won. Toluca has more title wins than Cruz Azul or Pumas.

Tigres, too, would’ve been denigrated as a “small club” had it won a ninth Liga MX trophy — which for much of the match it looked like it would. Few foreigners, however, would see Tigres or crosstown rival CF Monterrey as anything other than big teams.

After all, Tigres bolstered their title chances this summer by signing Angel Correa from Atlético Madrid. He joined a team that was undoubtedly the team of the 2010s, with Andre-Pierre Gignac and Co. winning six league titles since the 2011 Apertura, getting to the final four more times including this season’s loss and also winning a first-ever CONCACAF Champions Cup in 2020.

Meanwhile, Monterrey headed to the Club World Cup this past summer with Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos in its employ, later added Manchester United ex Anthony Martial and also boasts rising Mexican talents like center back Victor Guzman and midfielders Fidel Ambriz and Iker Fimbres.

But look at the comments of any post celebrating the achievements of the Nuevo León teams. They’re not even being accused of being “nouveau riche.” They’re just being taunted for being small.

Who decides who gets to be a grande? Generally, it’s powerful media commentators based in Mexico City. Rarely would they give teams from far north Monterrey the time of day, and even Toluca, around 40 miles to the west in the State of Mexico, is seen much more as a provincial team than one that belongs.

It’s time to change the thinking.

Toluca has assembled a team with few weaknesses. The injured Vega returned for a late cameo in the second leg of the final after more than a month out with a hamstring issue suffered two weeks before the end of the regular season. After the match, he noted that he “wasn’t doing very well” physically but believed he had avoided making the injury any worse by rushing back onto the field.

Advertisement

But the Toluca academy product, who returned after a miserable spell with Chivas in which it seemed he was out on the town more than he was on the training ground, so badly wanted to help the team become back-to-back champions that he said he never doubted the choice to risk it. “It was a very important day for me, my family, the fans who have been with us at all times,” he said.

Even without their playmaker, Toluca has seen others step up to fill the void. Top scorer Paulinho arrived from Sporting Lisbon in the summer of 2024 and two league titles and three top scorer awards later, he is pushing to get back into the Portugal national team setup ahead of the 2026 World Cup. He linked with Mexican midfielder Jesus Angulo and Brazilian winger Helinho to provide a spark in attack while Vega was absent.

Two-way midfielder Marcel Ruiz stayed at Toluca despite summer interest from clubs in the English Championship and Brazil’s top division and also was one of Toluca’s most important players. Uruguayan defender Federico Pereira anchored things at the back, allowing the Diablos Rojos to do their work going forward.

And their impressive manager Antonio Mohamed added a fifth Liga MX crown, his first time winning two at the same club. He’s had stops at the grandes, having won at Club América. He’s worked with smaller teams, pushing Club Tijuana to its first Liga MX title in 2012.

“Let me enjoy this right now. After that, we’ll have time to organize the squad, prepare well. Right now, we’ve got an end of year period of celebration. It’s just about celebrating with the fans tomorrow and after that take a well-deserved rest” Mohamed said as he left the Estadio Nemesio Díez. “I’m very happy. We’re now grandes.”

Media commentators can keep shrugging off Toluca’s sustained success. Rival fans can continue putting “too small” emoji in the Instagram comments. Toluca will be busy planning another parade, enjoying more title celebrations and — after what Vega said would be five or six days of partying — looking at another title defense, another Liga MX trophy and another piece of evidence that no matter the size of the market, what they’re doing on the field is what matters.

Dylan Raiola won’t return to Nebraska next season. The 20-year-old quarterback will reportedly enter the transfer portal after his promising sophomore year was cut short by injury, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel.

Raiola was in the midst of an excellent second season before a broken fibula limited him to nine starts. In those games, Raiola threw for 2,000 yards, with 18 touchdowns against six interceptions. He saw his completion percentage jump from 67.1% as a freshman to 72.4% in his second year.

Advertisement

Raiola is a true sophomore, and has two seasons of eligibility left, per Thamel.

Raiola, one of the top quarterbacks available in the 2024 class, made waves in 2023 when he flipped his commitment from Georgia to Nebraska. That turned out to be a strong choice, as Raiola played in 13 games as a freshman with the Cornhuskers. He showed promise in those games despite throwing 13 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.

As a sophomore, Raiola appeared to take a significant step forward as a passer. He was out to a strong start before sustaining a broken fibula in a loss to USC. Nebraska went 1-2 the rest of the way, finishing out the year 7-5. It’ll take on Utah in the Las Vegas Bowl on Dec. 31.

Rumors emerged about Raiola’s future at Nebraska after his brother, Dayton, de-committed from the school in November. Dylan reportedly had suitors who tried to lure him away from Nebraska after a rocky freshman season. He ultimately remained at Nebraska for his sophomore season before reportedly deciding to transfer.

Given his ability and previous five-star ranking, Dylan should draw plenty of interest in the portal.

Pete Carroll’s return to coaching hasn’t gone as smooth as he expected. With the Las Vegas Raiders sitting at 2-12, the 74-year-old Carroll is now looking at the possibility of a rebuild … if he’s allowed to stick around long enough to see it.

Despite the team’s poor record, Carroll said Monday he doesn’t feel as though he’s coaching for his job over the final three weeks of the regular season. “I don’t feel like that at all,” he said, via ESPN’s Ryan McFadden. “I’m well beyond that.”

Advertisement

Carroll admitted that a rebuild was likely “necessary” in Las Vegas.

Carroll added that he didn’t view things going this way when he was hired by the Raiders in January. He expected to join the team and immediately turn things around in Year 1.

But things didn’t work out that way. The team’s bold trade for Geno Smith proved to be a mistake, as the veteran regressed after a few solid years with the Seattle Seahawks. Smith is under contract for at least one more season with the team after it signed him to a two-year, $75 million extension in April. The Raiders do have an out from Smith’s contract following the 2026 season, and will likely exercise it unless Smith can show improvement next season.

Advertisement

Whether Smith gets that opportunity remains a significant question for Carroll. With three weeks to go in the regular season, the Raiders are one of three teams sitting at 2-12. Depending on how the team finishes out the year, it could be picking at — or very near — the top of the 2026 NFL Draft. Given Smith’s struggles in 2025, it would be hard to see the Raiders passing on a quarterback that high up in the draft. Even if Smith opens next year as the starter, his time in that role could be limited once the rookie is ready.

While Smith’s play has been an issue, he’s far from the only one facing the Raiders moving forward. The team doesn’t have many reliable playmakers on offense, especially following the Jakobi Meyers trade. Rookie Ashton Jeanty hasn’t made the immediate impact some expected and second-year tight end Brock Bowers has been held back by injury.

Advertisement

Despite the presence of Maxx Crosby, the defense has been almost as bad, ranking 25th in points against this season.

Put that all together, and the Raiders have a lot of holes, making Carroll’s statement about a rebuild look accurate. While Carroll seems up for the task, it’s unclear whether he’ll be able to see a full rebuild through. Carroll is 74 and coming off a miserable first season back. He might believe he’s safe this year, but probably won’t be given too much grace unless the Raiders hit on some key draft picks ahead of next season.

At least six suspects broke into the home of Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons on Sunday night while he was with the team in California during their 37-24 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Multiple items were stolen from Simmons’ Nashville-area home, police said, after suspects smashed glass to enter the home shortly after 7 p.m. on Sunday. Nobody was home during the time of the burglary. An investigation is ongoing. It’s unclear what specifically was stolen.

“Team security is actively working with Metro Nashville Police Department to recover items stolen from Jeffery Simmons’ house. No residents were home during the burglary,” the Titans said in a statement, via The Tennessean.

Simmons, police said, called them about the break-in after he arrived back in Tennessee on Monday morning. He shared a video that appeared to show the burglars walking up to his home on his Instagram story, too.

“God is the greatest and I’m his son!!” Simmons wrote. “Whoever you are, just know he sit on high and look low. You’ll get what you deserve you f***ing cowards!

“What if any of my family members was in my house?? All that materialistic s**t you can have but this is crazy!”

Simmons had seven total tackles and a sack in the Titans’ 13-point loss on Sunday. The 29-year-old, who the Titans selected with the No. 19 overall pick in 2019 out of Ole Miss, now has 55 total tackles and nine sacks this season.

Simmons is just the latest professional athlete to fall victim to a burglary in the United States in recent years. Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders had more than $200,000 worth of property stolen from his home as he made his NFL regular-season debut last month.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow’s home was broken into during a “Monday Night Football” game last season, and the homes of Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were both broken into in 2024, too. New Orleans Saints defensive end Cam Jordan and NBA star Luka Doncic also had their homes broken into.

Advertisement

The FBI issued a warning last year about international crime organizations that were tracking the whereabouts of athletes in order to conduct home break-ins when they aren’t home.

The Titans hold a 2-12 record entering Sunday’s matchup with the Chiefs. They have already been eliminated from the playoffs for a fourth straight season.
