Shedeur Sanders’ slide shows there’s still a gap between NFL Draft’s spectacle and reality
Every spring, there are two NFL Drafts. There’s the capital-D Draft, the traveling-roadshow spectacle that’s a whirlwind of mock-draft specialists and jersey-clad fanatics alike. And then there’s the lowercase-d draft, the staffing convention where 32 organizations are looking to make half a dozen strategic entry-level hires.Early on, the Draft and the draft run on side-by-side, if not entirely parallel, tracks. Mock drafters and real drafters alike tend to agree that players like, say, Cam Ward, Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter don’t need to get too comfortable in the green room before they get their call to the stage.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementBut when draft “insiders” and actual drafters diverge, well, that’s when it gets interesting … and, in some notable cases, embarrassing.Shedeur Sanders was a favorite of the Draft crowd, and it’s not hard to see why — he plays the league’s marquee position, […]

Dodgers’ Tyler Glasnow leaves game with right shoulder discomfort, second injury-shortened start in a row
Getty Images After giving up two runs in the first inning against the Pirates on Sunday, Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow was removed from the game with what the Dodgers later called right shoulder discomfort. He went out for his warm up pitches before summoning manager Dave Roberts and a trainer. He then left the game due to an apparent injury. Ben Casparius replaced Glasnow on the mound. Glasnow could be seen rotating his shoulder before the pitch then reacted immediately with a shout after releasing. The Dodgers entered the season with great rotation depth and that depth is being strenuously tested at present. Tony Gonsolin, Kyle Hurt, Clayton Kershaw, River Ryan, Emmet Sheehan, Blake Snell and Gavin Stone are currently on the injured list, leaving Glasnow, Roki Sasaki, Dustin May and Yoshinobu Yamamoto in the rotation.
