The Buffalo Bills and Nyheim Hines are at odds about how much money the running back should be paid in 2023.
After suffering a torn ACL on a jet ski, Hines will miss the entire season. So the question now becomes: How much money are the Bills required to pay him?
The 26-year-old reworked his contract in March — agreeing to a two-year, $9 million deal. Hines would have made $2.56 million this season, but his non-football injury makes the contract voidable.
Nyheim Hines appeared in nine games for the Buffalo Bills in 2022.

What is the right question to ask about the Angels’ deadline strategy?
They have the most attractive trade candidate imaginable in Shohei Ohtani. Here is a man who lays bare the inadequacy of the term generational talent, who makes every hypothetical trade proposal an exercise in pure wishcasting, who is the best player in baseball and, crucially, one set to experience free agency later this year.

Pirates pitcher Dauri Moreta has been throwing one of the coolest pitches in baseball this season and even he doesn’t know how he does it or what it should be called.
He threw one of those beauties for a called third strike against the Padres on Tuesday and it left baseball fans wondering what they had just seen. 
Here’s how he described the pitch earlier this year to TribLive.com: 
“They say, ‘How do you throw that slider?’ I say, ‘I don’t know. I just throw it. [Then] they say, ‘That’s not a slider. We need to find a new name for that pitch.

Outfielder Matt Wallner is one of the top prospects in the Twins’ system (No. 5 on MLB.com’s list), and his power is a big reason why.
