- Rangers are expected to listen to offers for All‑Star shortstop Corey Seager despite his no‑trade clause and $155M remaining on his contract.
- Injuries have limited him lately (102 games, .227 in 2024), but when healthy he’s elite — World Series MVP and a lifetime .284 hitter with 241 homers.

The news, distilled into what matters.
- Pochettino is under contract with the USMNT through 2030 but is the reported frontrunner to replace Michael Carrick at Manchester United if Carrick is sacked.

- Mauricio Pochettino is being tipped as a leading candidate to replace Michael Carrick at Manchester United.
- He and his camp seem to welcome the transfer chatter — it boosts his brand and they’re unlikely to shut down the rumors.

- Jacksonville went all‑in at the deadline, trading big picks for Jordan Davis, Jessie Bates and Davon Godchaux — a clear push to cash in on their current window and chase a deeper playoff run.
