Just as the Atlanta Braves welcome Spencer Strider back to their roster, Ronald Acuña Jr. is going on the injured list. The team announced the move on Sunday morning.

Acuña strained his left hamstring during Saturday’s 9-1 win over the Colorado Rockies, apparently sustaining the injury while running out a ground ball to second base. He grabbed at the back of his leg quickly after dashing from the batter’s box.

This story will be updated with more information.

Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, the WWE tag team known as the New Day, reportedly departed the company on Saturday as part of the latest string of releases.

Kingston and Woods became fan favorites as they formed New Day with fellow superstar Big E. But after Big E was sidelined with a serious injury, the two continued their tag team prowess in the ring. Kingston and Woods were four-time tag team champions as a duo and held the belts eight times when they were with Big E.

Fightful Select and BodySlam both reported the departures of Kingston and Woods. The two were moved to the alumni section of the WWE website.

Kingston had a ton of success as a singles competitor. He captured the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 35 over Daniel Bryan as part of the “Kofi-Mania” era where he received a ton of fan support on his way to his first title. He was also an intercontinental champion four times and a United States champion three times.

Woods joined WWE in 2010 after stints at Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) and New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). Woods won the King of the Ring tournament in 2021.

As a tag team, the two were considered to be one of the best in WWE’s history. They captured their last titles at WrestleMania 41 and turned heel soon after that. The two lost their tag titles in June and Woods was injured during the year. Kingston formed an alliance with Grayson Waller in the interim before the departure.

Elsewhere, Tonga Loa and JC Mateo reportedly departed the company as well.

Loa first appeared in WWE in 2009 before departed in 2014. He re-appeared most recently in 2024, joining forces with Solo Sikoa and the newly formed MFT faction.

Mateo joined WWE in 2025, also backing up Sikoa in the faction. He was also a tag team champion with Tama Tonga before eventually dropping the belts to Damian Priest and R-Truth in March.

Carl Froch has considered Moses Itauma’s chances against Fabio Wardley and Daniel Dubois, as either man could soon be ordered to face the rising star.

Before anything else, Wardley must first defend his WBO world title against Dubois on May 9, headlining a Queensberry show at Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena.

The 31-year-old was elevated from ‘interim’ to full heavyweight champion following his victory over Joseph Parker, which resulted in a stunning 11th-round finish last October.

Dubois, meanwhile, has not fought since his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk in July, back when he was relieved of his IBF title via an emphatic fifth-round stoppage.

As for Itauma, it is likely he will be named as the WBO mandatory challenger, putting him in line to face the winner of Wardley-Dubois.

The 21-year-old comes off a dominant fifth-round finish over Jermaine Franklin, who was dropped and stopped for the first time in his career.

While having not yet established himself at world level, his performance in March nonetheless suggests that Itauma is capable of competing with the likes of Wardley and Dubois.

In fact, Hall of Famer Froch has opined on his YouTube channel, Froch On Fighting, that the hard-hitting prodigy is more than ready for such a challenge.

“I think Moses beats both of them. Obviously Daniel Dubois’ got that punch that could catch him, as has Fabio Wardley, but I just don’t think they’re good enough [to beat him].

“When you look at Itauma and his speed – his footwork, his combination punching… the power – he’s just very, very good.”

Itauma is set to return to action on July 25, meaning his maiden world title shot – should it arrive as early as this – is unlikely to involve the WBO belt.

It is worth noting, too, that Itauma trains at the same gym as Wardley, which represents a clear stumbling block in the way of their potential fight.

Gujarat Titans won the toss and elected to bowl first against Punjab Kings as the playoff race begins to heat up.Explaining the decision, skipper Shubman Gill said his side wanted to stick to what has worked recently. “We are gonna bowl first. We have been chasing well in the past few games and our bowling is doing well, so will continue that momentum,” he noted, adding that the surface could offer something early on. Gill also pointed to the team peaking at the right time and praised the middle-order finishing, especially Rahul Tewatia’s recent efforts. He confirmed one change, with Nishant Sindhu coming in for his debut.Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer, meanwhile, felt the pitch looked good for batting but with enough assistance for bowlers. “It looks beautiful, some grass on the wicket and some bounce considering it is black soil,” he observed. Iyer emphasised the challenges of a demanding schedule but maintained that his side remains focused. “It is not frustration, it is an intense league… it is just another game and we will put our best foot forward.” He also confirmed changes, with Xavier and Vyshak added to the bowling attack.Teams:
