St. Louis Cardinals catcher Willson Contreras underwent successful surgery on Wednesday to repair the fractured arm he suffered earlier this week. He was forced to exit Tuesday night's game against the New York Mets (NYM-STL GameTracker) in the second inning after J.D. Martinez's swing caught him on the left forearm. Soon after the Cardinals announced that Contreras had suffered a left arm fracture. After the game, Contreras told reporters that he was informed he would be out at least six to eight weeks.

Witt went 2-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Brewers. Witt has three multi-hit efforts and four steals over six contests in May, batting .350 (7-for-20) for the month. While other members of the Royals' lineup have plateaued or cooled off altogether, Witt is still going strong from the No. 2 hole. He's slashing .319/.385/.542 with four home runs, 13 steals, 19 RBI and 33 runs scored over 37 games.

Hendricks (back) struck out six and allowed one earned run on five hits and three walks over 4.1 innings in his second rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A Iowa. Hendricks tossed 85 pitches in the outing and said Wednesday that he "felt great" during his time on the mound, per Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports. The right-hander's pitch count and own comments about his health suggests that he'll be ready to make his next start with the Cubs, perhaps as soon as Sunday in Pittsburgh. Once Hendricks is activated from the 15-day injured list, he'll likely be taking over Hayden Wesneski's spot in the rotation.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

Marchand (upper body) was injured Friday in Game 3 against Florida and is not expected to return to the contest. Marchand racked up five hits through 10:51 of ice time prior to suffering the injury but he failed to record a shot or a point. The veteran winger tallied an assist in each of the first two games of the series but is currently stuck in a six-game goalless drought. An update on his status should be available before Game 4 on Sunday.

Davis (concussion) could be on the bubble for a spot on the Ravens' season-opening roster heading into training camp, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Armour-Davis, a 2022 fourth-round pick, suited up for just four games as a rookie, then eight games in 2023 before ending the season on injured reserve with a concussion. He could have his work cut out to earn a roster spot, especially given that he mostly contributed on special teams in 2023.
