MLB
The Brewers have signed a minor league deal with right-hander Deivi Garcia. Garcia was a top-tier prospect in the Yankees’ system several years ago, but has struggled at the major league level.
Former Detroit Tigers slugger Rocky Colavito has died. Colavito averaged 35 homers and 107 RBIs per season during his four years in the Motor City, starting in 1960 after he was traded by Cleveland to Detroit for All-Star third baseman Harvey Kuenn. He also played for the Athletics, Yankees and Dodgers, while making nine All-Star teams. He remains one of just a handful of major leaguers to hit four home runs in one game. Rocky Colavito was 91.
