Anthony has been added to the roster for Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Corbin Carroll, who underwent hamate bone surgery on Wednesday. Anthony addressed the media to share his feelings on his WBC selection.
“Amazing,” Anthony said. “It was one of those opportunities that you dream of as a kid.Obviously it’s super unfortunate what happened [to Carroll], and hoping for the best for him with a speedy recovery, but it was exciting on my end to be able to just get that call.”
Anthony made his MLB debut in 2025 and posted a .292 batting average in 71 games with eight home runs. He finished third in the AL Rookie of the Year rankings.

He signed an eight-year contract worth $130 million with the Red Sox in August.

Lia posted a photo dump of memories in Boston on Instagram. On Jan. 28, in the first photo she wore a white crop sweater, blue denim jeans, a muffler, and paired it with a brown winter cap.
She was drinking coffee on the streets of Boston. In another slide, a blurred image of Roman Anthony clubbing with her sister.
“Reminiscing Boston #shocker 🤭” Lia captioned it.
Anthony and Lia also went to a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed party in November. Lia donned a white bralette, a netted skirt, and accessorized with shell accessories.

Unit Five wrote himself into the history books with a victory in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic during his second race, and Ciaron Maher holds strong belief that the unbeaten colt can forge ahead further this weekend at Caulfield.
The Supido offspring leads Maher’s three-pronged bid for the $2 million Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes, with Ghana’s Akan and Milsons Point also in the mix.
Post the January 17 Gold Coast success, Maher passed on an extra race for Unit Five, as no horse has transitioned directly from the Magic Millions 2YO Classic to win the Diamond, though Maher anticipates success for his runner following a third-place finish in last Monday’s Cranbourne trial dominated by Milsons Point.
“He trialled well and he seems very similar,” Maher said.

“He’s a very similar weight, travelled down well and seems in similar order. I can’t fault him, really, he’s a very straightforward horse.
“I think he’ll run to that (Gold Coast run) and possibly better given it’s only his third run.
“I like the fact that his runs have been spaced and he’s fresh. It worked going into that (Gold Coast) race and I think it’ll work going into this race.”
Before heading to the Gold Coast, Unit Five dominated the $250,000 Magic Millions Victorian 2YO Classic at Caulfield back on December 20.

He’s quoted at $7 for the Blue Diamond, following the pair Big Sky and Guest House prepared by Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr, and the fresh Blue Diamond Prelude conqueror Closer To Free.
Milsons Point, who was second last out in the Blue Diamond Preview, trades at $34, yet Maher approved of the Blue Point son’s trial display and foresees improvement over 1200m for his debut beyond 1000m.
“I think the 1200 will really suit him, he was looking for the 12 the other day, he was there to win the race but just didn’t have that turn of foot over 1000,” Maher said.
“I think the 1200 it will be a different story.”

Echoing Unit Five’s path, Ghana’s Akan returns from an interstate slot in a premium sales-restricted contest, second in the $2 million Inglis Millennium (1100m) on February 7 after three runs in five weeks, with Maher satisfied by the Street Boss filly’s condition.
“She has been busy, but she’s also fit and well and sound,” he said.
“She doesn’t need to do any work. She’s been busy, she’s been travelling, so you’re just backing off and you don’t mind doing that with two-year-olds.”
Ethan Brown partners Ghana’s Akan initially on Saturday, Ben Allen stays on Milsons Point, and Tom Stockdale maintains his link with Unit Five. Fans should visit the leading online bookmakers for the Blue Diamond Stakes.
With Tyson Fury now in hot pursuit of a third clash with Oleksandr Usyk, ‘The Gypsy King’ has admitted that there is one active heavyweight who deserves his own shot at the unified world champion.
Fury hung up the gloves after consecutive defeats to Usyk in 2024, walking away from the sport as a two-time conqueror of the heavyweight division and as a legend of British boxing.
Although, whilst he is eyeing up a trilogy bout with Usyk himself, Fury told iFL TV that Agit Kabayel’s form warrants a title shot, but that he does not envisage that Usyk will give him one due to a lack of interest and financial incentive.
“Do you know what? Here is the fun facts of boxing, you are here today and you are gone tomorrow. Today’s news is tomorrow’s chip paper. No one really gives a s**t, do they?
“If Usyk fights Kabayel, who cares? I don’t care. No one cares. It doesn’t sell, no one is interested, it is what it is.
Kabayel deserves his shot at Usyk but I don’t think Usyk is going to give it him because it doesn’t sell, there is no real money there.
“If you have been with a straight 10/10 [girl] for the past three years of your life and then all of a sudden this 10/10 gets rid of you and you’ve got an old 2/10 coming to you, you are not going to be turned on, are you? In Layman’s terms.”
After exciting preliminary contests, it’s onto the playoff round for men’s ice hockey at the 2026 Winter Olympics. The playoff stage begins early Tuesday with four qualification matchups before the quarterfinals take place on Wednesday. The semifinals will then be held on Thursday before the gold medal match for 2026 Winter Olympics men’s hockey takes place on Sunday. Canada enters the Olympics men’s hockey playoff as the top seed and -140 favorite to win gold, followed by the United States at +180.
For Tuesday’s contests, the latest hockey odds are: Italy (+980) vs. Switzerland (-2100), France (+550) vs. Germany (-820), Denmark (+320) vs. Czechia (-420) and Latvia (+660) vs. Sweden (-1050). The four winners advance to the Olympic hockey quarterfinals on Wednesday, while the four losers are knocked out of competition. The first faceoffs come at 6:10 a.m. ET. Before making any 2026 Winter Olympics men’s hockey picks or playoff predictions, you need to see what Matthew Severance has to say.
Severance is coming off an outstanding NHL season in which he went 235-155-21 (plus $2,022). He entered the Olympic break on a 26-12 roll on NHL money-line picks this season, returning $1,326 for $100 players. Anyone following his hockey picks at their favorite sportsbooks could have seen huge returns.
For the 2026 Winter Olympics hockey playoff round, Severance is backing Under 6.5 total goals in Latvia vs. Sweden at 3:10 p.m. ET. These nations have squared off five times since the 2022 Olympic Games, including in each of the last four World Championships. Four of those five matchups saw under 6.5 goals, with them averaging five combined goals per contest.
With the winner just needing a victory and not needing to worry about goal differential to advance, Severance doesn’t anticipate either squad going all out to find the back of the net late in the game. “There is no need to be pushing hard up three goals or the like in the third period. Save as much energy as possible. Thus, I’d probably lean Under (but no lower than 6.5).” See his other picks at SportsLine.

Severance also has puck line and O/U picks for all four Tuesday games, including backing a team to cover the puck line that finished last in its preliminary group. You can only see his playoff picks here.
6:10 a.m. ET: Italy (+980) vs. Switzerland (-2100) 6:10 a.m. ET France (+550) vs. Germany (-820) 10:40 a.m. ET: Denmark (+320) vs. Czechia (-420) 3:10 p.m. ET: Latvia (+660) vs. Sweden (-1050)

Graham Ike is one of the top players in the West but Gonzaga coach Mark Few feels the big man isn’t receiving the proper level of respect.
Ike will look to post a 20-point outing for the eighth consecutive appearance when the No. 11 Bulldogs visit San Francisco on Wednesday night in West Coast Conference play. The contest will be held at the Chase Center, home of the Golden State Warriors.
Gonzaga will be looking to defeat the Dons for the 35th consecutive time after surviving a close call last month.
Ike registered 21 points and a season-best 15 rebounds as Gonzaga (25-2, 13-1 WCC) recorded a 94-86 road win over Santa Clara on Saturday night to overtake the Broncos for first place in the conference race.
Ike has scored 30 or more points in three of his last seven appearances, including matching his career best of 35 points in an 81-61 road win over Oregon State on Feb. 7. The fifth-year senior has made 31 of 43 shots (72.1%) over the past three games.

“I think none of us can take 21 and 15 for granted or the 30-(point games),” Few said. “I think it’s time he starts seeing his name pop up on first-team All-American or second-team All-American (forecasts).
“I know we’re all obsessed with these (standout) freshmen, but he’s literally been delivering night-in, night-out at the highest level. I think he needs to start garnering some attention, at least nationally.”
Ike is averaging 19.8 points and 8.7 rebounds. He missed the Bulldogs’ 68-66 home win over the Dons on Jan. 24, the final contest of a three-game absence caused by an ankle injury.
Adam Miller stood out against Santa Clara by scoring a season-high 21 points. Miller is averaging a career-low 7.7 points in the fifth season of a four-stop college career.

“We talked about how unselfish our team is,” Miller said. “Any day can be a dog’s day. Coach reminds us of that all the time, but every day you’ve got to show up and do your role, however that looks, and I just tried to do my job and my teammates definitely did their jobs.”
The Bulldogs have been without Braden Huff (left knee) for a month, and Few’s update on Monday revealed that Huff (17.8 ppg) won’t return prior to the NCAA Tournament.
“We said four to eight weeks, it’ll be at least eight,” Few said on his weekly show. “He’s still on crutches. … He’s a long ways away from getting back.”

San Francisco (15-13, 7-8) figures to gain some support by playing in the larger Chase Center as opposed to its cozy on-campus gymnasium.
Despite never leading, the Dons gave Gonzaga a battle last month in Spokane, Wash.
The Dons were down by eight before Vukasin Masic made consecutive 3-pointers in the final 1:20. However, a go-ahead 3-point attempt by Junjie Wang caromed off the backboard and rim with less than two seconds left.
USF’s Legend Smiley matched his season high of 18 points in that contest.

“We have an unbelievable opportunity on Wednesday night at the Chase Center against a team that obviously is a juggernaut,” Dons coach Chris Gerlufsen said of the rematch. “We felt we played pretty well against them the first time.
“We’re going to roll our sleeves up and get to work Wednesday night and take advantage of the opportunity at hand.”
The setback vs. Gonzaga was the beginning of a stretch in which the Don lost five of six games. They halted that funk with a 92-79 road win at San Diego on Sunday.
Masic scored a season-best 22 points against the Toreros while David Fuchs contributed 21 points and a season-best-tying 13 rebounds.

San Francisco’s most recent win over Gonzaga came in 2012, a 66-65 home decision.
Blizzard conditions during the alpine skiing men’s slalom competition at the 2026 Milan Cortina Games led to chaos for the participants, and a medal favorite lost his cool at the end of Monday’s runs.
Out of the 96 competitors in the field, 52 of them were unable to complete their first runs on the mountain due to the snowy conditions. Skiers were having trouble keeping their balance, let alone hitting each gate.
Norway’s Atle Lie McGrath, competing in his second Olympic Games, was leading the field after the disastrous first run for many of his opponents.

McGrath held a whopping 59-second lead heading into the second run, which is great for any slalom skier hoping to take home gold.
But, after straddling a gate on his second run, McGrath ruined his chances at taking home any medal, let alone gold.
McGrath knew that and reacted as such, launching his ski poles out of frustration. Then, after he was making his way off the course, he laid in the snow with his hands on his head, wondering what went wrong.
In turn, Switzerland’s Loïc Meillard won the gold medal, followed by Fabio Gstrein taking home silver and McGrath’s Norwegian teammate Henrik Kristoffersen winning bronze.
“It’s amazing,” Meillard said after winning gold, per the New York Post. “It’s been long days, a lot of expectations and about what you want to achieve, a lot of pressure on yourself.”
Gstrein added, “The feeling is great, really nice and cool,” after winning his silver medal.

McGrath’s wipeout despite being the gold-medal favorite heading into the second run is just another example of how these Winter Games have not been going according to plan for many of the top athletes competing.
On the United States’ side, snowboarder Chloe Kim and figure skater Ilia Malinin are just two examples of expected gold-medal finishers who had wipeout moments in their decisive events.

Kim needed higher than a 90 on his third attempt at the women’s halfpipe to make Olympic history with three straight gold medals after 17-year-old Gaon Choi of South Korea had a clean final run to overtake first place.

Kim fell after attempting a trick, thus leaving her with the silver medal.

As for Malinin, he wasn’t on the podium like Kim, falling twice during the men’s free skate. The 21-year-old, nicknamed “Quad God,” finished eighth in the event, shocking everyone in Milan.
But that’s the nature of the high-pressure moments the Olympics can bring out in these athletes. Execution is key, and when things don’t go the way they are hoped to, frustration can leak out.

In McGrath’s case, that frustration involved some pole throwing.
And after the press conference for the Netflix fight, a host for DAZN put it to Fury that he “might be adding” to his team.
Fury, 37, responded with a reference to Mr T’s character in Rocky III, saying: “Yeah, I’m like Clubber Lang, I’m gonna train alone. I’m gonna train alone.”
Heavyweight legend Lennox Lewis, who was offering punditry for DAZN, chimed in, “Well, he’s been through it so many times, he knows what to do,” before Fury explained his thinking.

“I know how to do it, I know how to go 12 rounds, I know how to push myself when I need to, and I know how to take a rest when I need to.”
When Fury returned to boxing in 2018, following a two-year hiatus, he did so with Ben Davison in his corner. Davison coached the “Gypsy King” to wins over Sefer Seferi, Francesco Pianeta, Tom Schwarz and Otto Wallin, and a draw against Deontay Wilder.

Fury then switched trainers for his second bout with Wilder, and Sugarhill Steward guided the Briton to a stoppage win and the WBC heavyweight title in 2020. With Sugarhill in his corner, Fury stopped Wilder again in 2021, and a knockout of Dillian Whyte followed.

That gave way to a close shave against ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou, whom Fury narrowly outpointed, before he suffered two decision losses to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024.

Fury’s latest retirement ensued, and now fans wait to see if he will really fight Makhmudov, 36, without a coach, or whether he was simply having fun.

“I thought he’s a good opponent, he’s a dangerous opponent,” Fury told The Independent and other publications on Monday. “If they’d have said I was going to fight some random person no one’s heard of, then that wouldn’t have turned me on, so I wouldn’t have even been interested.
“But considering I’ve got a No 5-ranked WBA heavyweight, who’s known to the British public because he just had a good fight with Dave Allen… and he wrestles bears for fun, and he’s as big as me, and as ugly as me, [it] makes him a very worthy adversary.”
Legend of the Cosmicon Collective in Honkai Star Rail is an adventure mission that was released alongside version 4.0. Compared to others released with the aforementioned update, this one is exceptionally easy to complete. All you have to do is play and win a couple of Cosmicon matches.

Sampo’s location (Image via Sportskeeda Gaming || HoYoverse)
Teleport to the Tavern Lobby anchor in Planarcadia’s World’s End Tavern. After spawning, walk straight towards the bar counter. There, you will see Sampo standing on the left side. Talk to him to start the mission.

Defeat Umbralle in Dovebrook District

First off, teleport to the Furbobo Weekly Editorial Headquarters Space Anchor in Dovebrook District. Then, walk down the stairs and turn right. After reaching the end, take a left turn where you’ll see Umbralle standing near a store with a giant disco ball. Go close to the NPC and interact to initiate the battle.
Since Umbralle is level 5, make sure to use a card that can easily beat the opponent. In this case, the best choice will be Firefly. Moreover, you can “Gild” the card to increase your chances of winning.
While fighting, make sure to select dice with the highest numbers. When you attack, this will boost your damage. As for defending, it will allow you to negate the corresponding damage dealt by the opponent. If you roll low numbers, make sure to reroll, as you will get plenty.
Defeat Magical Middleager

For this particular enemy, you must go to Graphia Academy using the Academy Atrium anchor. When you spawn, turn right and head towards the stairs. The opponent will be standing right beside the stairs.
Unlike the previous one, defeating Magical Middleager will be quite easy, as this adversary is only level 3. Same as before, use the Firefly card to fight this opponent. Regardless of whether you are attacking or defending, select the dice with the highest numbers.
Moreover, you can also try to activate the card’s power by making sure there are at least two pairs of the same number. Since the Enemy has a low HP pool, you can defeat them in very few turns.

Defeat Kendor
Kendor (Image via Sportskeeda Gaming || HoYoverse)
Teleport to the @EntertainmentPlaza anchor in Duomension City and head south. When you reach a small food cart, turn right and walk up the stairs. On top, you’ll see Kendor on the left side. Interact with him to start the battle. Once again, using Firefly is the optimal choice since the opponent can only choose three dice while attacking and two when defending.
During your attack turn, make sure to deal as much damage as possible to quickly deplete the adversary’s HP. When you do so, start heading to the last challenge.
Defeat Singafar
Go to World End Tavern’s Lobby. Turn left when you reach the bar area and interact with Interplanar Jump! Difficulty II. Traverse the area to go to the other side, then head up. There, you will see Singafar standing near the railing.
When you start fighting, make sure to use the Prismatic Dice while attacking to make the most out of it. If you end up getting max rolls on three dice twice, you can defeat the adversary in two turns.
Defeat Dinocto

After defeating all four adversaries, head down to floor 1 and talk to Sampo near the bar counter. After burning through the dialogues, another enemy will show up. Among all enemies, this one is the toughest as the opponent uses a gilded Phainon card.
Same as before, use the Firefly card to defeat this adversary. To maximize the damage output, utilize the Prismatic Dice and reroll (if needed) to get two pairs of the same number when attacking. If you end up activating the card’s bonus effect, winning will be much easier.

When you are done, finish talking with Sampo to conclude the Legend of the Cosmicon Collective quest. You will receive the Aventurine Card as a reward alongside some Stellar Jade, Credit, and Refined Aether.

At Caulfield, jockey Declan Bates shared a gallop with Pride Of Jenni, both dropping pounds as they prepare to unite for the All-Star Mile.
Ciaron Maher assembled a small, high-quality string of horses for Tuesday’s gallop at Caulfield, prominently including Pride Of Jenni who targets a first-up run in the Group 1 All-Star Mile (1600m) at Flemington on March 7.
Bates hasn’t raced since December 6, when a barrier setback at Ballarat jump-outs injured him; he rode the mare in the workout to enhance his readiness for a track return, perhaps at Terang on Friday.
The incident left the Irish jockey with fractures to his pelvis and sacrum, which he termed ‘a nasty one’.

“It’s a frustrating injury because you can’t give it any relief,” Bates said.
“Sitting down you’re putting pressure on it and even lying in bed you’re putting pressure on it.
“That’s why in the first month you don’t feel like you’re healing at all, so I was a little bit worried with the injury at first, but once it started coming good, in the last month especially, there has been rapid improvement and luckily, I’ll be back ahead of schedule.”
Bates returned to trackwork riding over a week ago and worked ‘eight or nine’ horses during Monday’s Cranbourne jump-outs.

He’s excited about getting back to competitive riding and peaking his fitness in time for the All-Star Mile with Pride Of Jenni.
“My fitness needs to tighten up a bit, but that’s going to come as I go along,” Bates said.
“I was keen to get back racing two weeks before the All-Star Mile and that way it gives me a good two weeks of race riding before then.
“Like me, she’s got a bit of fitness to come on, but she feels her usual self, enthusiastic in her work, and that’s what I wanted to see.
Advertisement
“It’s good to have a nice horse to look forward to. You always want to get back as quick as possible and when you have a nice horse it really helps the motivation to get back as strong and healthy as possible.”
In 19 of Pride Of Jenni’s 43 starts, Bates has been aboard, delivering four Group 1 successes such as the mare’s thrilling 2024 Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m) at Randwick. For the All-Star Mile, punters should review the top online bookmakers.
