He picked up the win, giving the Blue Jays (13-16) 5 1/3 innings of shutout ball. He needed 74 pitches to reach that point, logging three punch-outs along the way.

The New York Giants were widely lauded for selecting Ohio State edge rusher Arvell Reese with the fifth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. FOX Sports lead college football analyst Joel Klatt was among those praising the selection, but not just because Reese will bolster the Giants' pass rush. In the most recent episode of "The Joel Klatt Show," Klatt pointed to the competition the Giants will face in the NFC East as to why Reese was a strong selection. "Who do [the Giants] see twice a year? They see Jalen Hurts, and they see Jayden Daniels," Klatt said. "Jalen Hurts specifically had the second most drop backs that wound up being scrambles 20% of his drop-backs wound up being scrambles. "Now you have a guy that can handle that and do it basically by himself [in Reese]. So, it is a great fit not just because he's a great player, but also because of who they play." The Giants were actually able to keep Hurts in check this past season, sacking him seven times and allowing him to rush for just 35 yards over two games. But Daniels rushed for 68 yards in the only game he played against the Giants in 2025. Still, the Giants could use the boost of talent that Reese should bring to their defense. They were in the bottom five in total defense, tied for 15th in sacks and 28th in run-stop win rate. While Reese has been labeled as an edge rusher in the lead-up to the draft, he also played plenty of off-ball linebacker at Ohio State. Klatt, who had Reese ranked third on his top-50 prospects big board, believes that the 6-foot-3 defensive standout's versatility will be a boon for New York's defense, citing a pair of his performances during his days at Columbus as a reason why. "One of the ways he made a tremendous impact last year for Ohio State was as a spy because of the athleticism that he has. And it's true, I mean his athleticism is off the charts. We saw it against Arch Manning, and we also saw it against Demond Williams Jr.," Klatt said on Monday's edition of "The Joel Klatt Show." "Demond Williams Jr. was one of the great scramblers in all of college football. He couldn't do anything against Ohio State, mainly because of Arvell Reese. Reese was spying on him, and he was watching him, and he could not create outside of the pocket." To Klatt's point, Williams put up minus-28 rushing yards in that game as he was sacked six times in Ohio State's victory over Washington. Reese didn't log any of those sacks, but he helped slow down Williams' process on multiple occasions, leading to sacks. The Giants finished the season 4-13 and fired former head coach Brian Daboll and defensive coordinator Shane Bowen in November after Daboll's 2-8 start. In the offseason, New York turned to hire John Harbaugh, bringing in the veteran head coach shortly after he was fired by the Baltimore Ravens in January. With a playoff-caliber coach in Harbaugh and new defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson in place, Reese's talent could help reignite the defensive side of the ball this season, as some believe he can help the Giants quickly turn things around.

The next notable date in the NFL offseason is May 1 the deadline for teams to exercise fifth-year contract options for the draft class of 2023.First-round draft picks sign four-year deals in the NFL, and teams have a fifth-year option on each for the 2027 season. These fifth-year options come with significant pay jumps designated by the collectively bargained rookie wage scale. The value of the options are based on a players position, performance and availability through the first three seasons of his contract. For example, quarterback Bryce Young, the No. 1 pick of the 2023 draft, signed a four-year rookie deal with the Carolina Panthers valued at $38 million. Per Spotrac, the projected fifth-year option on his deal is valued at $25.9 million, more than double that of his $12.1 million salary from Year 4 of his contract.Teams that exercise options maintain the ability to negotiate a long-term extension with players, and some already have. How teams handle the fifth-year option is generally a good indicator of a players success through his first three seasons. Heres how teams are handling fifth-year options for each of the 31 2023 first-round picks. There was no 32nd first-round pick in the 2023 draft. The Dolphins forfeited their pick due to tampering with Tom Brady and Sean Payton.

I thought I could beat it by being quick. That was my first mistake. I jumped in, swung early, reacted fast, and missed almost everything. It felt like the game was one step ahead of me the entire time. That was when I realized something important about doodle baseball. It does not reward speed. It rewards control. And that changes everything. What Makes Doodle Baseball So Unique? At its core,...
