San Diego Padres infielder Luis Arraez went on the seven-day injured list Monday and is in Major League Baseball’s concussion protocol after a grisly collision at first base briefly hospitalized Arraez. Infielder Mason McCoy was recalled from Triple-A El Paso to take Arraez’s place on the roster.
Arraez returned to the Padres’ clubhouse at Daikin Park following their 3-2 win over the Houston Astros on Sunday. He later posted on Instagram that “there is nothing to worry about,” adding that he planned to rejoin the team Monday.

Padres manager Mike Shildt cautioned late Sunday that Arraez was not yet “out of the woods.” Arraez stayed behind in Houston and did not travel with the Padres to Detroit, where they will begin a three-game series Monday.
“More time will tell, but the initial testing is very favorable,” Shildt told reporters in Houston. “No fractures of any sort. He’s got a little bit of a laceration on his jawline, so we’re worried about his jaw, we’re worried about clearly his cervical region.
“We’ve been burned before on testing, so we’ll be cautiously optimistic. He did have a period where he wasn’t aware of where he was (on the field), so that’s clearly concerning. But everything’s coming back to him now and his initial testing from a concussion standpoint is favorable, but clearly we’re not out of the woods.”
“He’s coming out as good as can be expected… Nothing from an imaging standpoint that is showing anything overly alarming.”

In the first inning of Sunday’s game, Arraez collided with Houston second baseman Mauricio Dubón after laying down a sacrifice bunt. Dubón’s shoulder appeared to make contact with the head of Arraez, who remained motionless on the field as training staffs from both teams rushed to his aid.
Arraez stayed on the ground for more than 10 minutes while trainers from both clubs and at least one Astros team physician rendered help. Medical personnel placed Arraez onto a cart with a brace around his neck and padding around his head. He gave a thumbs-up with his right hand as the cart drove off the field. The Padres later announced on X that Arraez was “stable.”

Arraez, the reigning National League batting champion and San Diego’s primary first baseman, is the fifth Padres hitter to land on the injured list in the past two weeks, joining Jackson Merrill (right hamstring strain), Jake Cronenworth (non-displaced right rib fracture), Brandon Lockridge (left hamstring strain) and Jason Heyward (left knee inflammation). The only position player on the 40-man roster who remains in Triple A is catcher Luis Campusano.
McCoy appeared in 19 games with the Padres last season, hitting .204/.278/.245 and serving as a backup shortstop.

Damian Lillard injury update: Bucks star diagnosed with torn left Achilles tendon suffered during playoff game
Getty Images Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard has torn his left Achilles tendon, the team announced Monday. It's news that the Bucks feared would be confirmed after an MRI Monday, and now the sobering reality has set in. Lillard will miss the rest of the playoffs for the Bucks, and will likely also miss a good chunk -- if not all -- of next season rehabbing from the injury.The injury occurred just six minutes into the first quarter of Game 3 on Sunday. Lillard was attempting to corral an offensive rebound off a missed Gary Trent Jr. 3-pointer, but as he tried to accelerate, the All-Star guard crumpled to the ground, visibly in pain. Play continued as Lillard sat at the 3-point line, and as Kyle Kuzma tried to help him off the floor at the next dead ball, Lillard […]
