It's the number Miguel Cabrera wore for almost his entire Marlins career. So as we said at the top, obvious call. Cabrera made the switch to No. 24 after winning a World Series championship, evidently deciding the previous number was unlucky after he failed to win the NL Rookie of the Year award, and never looked back. Four years wearing it for the Marlins, four All-Star appearances, four years with MVP votes.
Since Ureña also made a brief stint with the Los Angeles Dodgers last season, appearing in just two games after being granted his release from the Blue Jays, he's in line to receive a World Series ring later this year. He was guaranteed to take home a championship ring with two of his former teams - Toronto and Los Angeles - squaring off in the Fall Classic.
Arsenal are rumoured to have begun talks with a 20-year-old talent from Brazil. The Gunners will once again be no doubt looking to refresh their squad in the summer, having done so when bringing in the likes of Eberechi Eze, Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi in 2025. But with Andrea Berta already working his magic behind the scenes, it seems Arsenal have stolen a march on another emerging star from South America.
Karl is currently averaging a goal or an assist every 100 minutes he plays for Bayern. The teenager has scored six goals and provided two assists for Die Roten across all competitions. He became the youngest player to score a goal in three consecutive Champions League games.

Fairchild, 30 in March, was a second-round pick by the Reds back in 2017. He was traded to Arizona as part of the Archie Bradley deal back at the 2020 trade deadline and made his MLB debut with the Diamondbacks in 2021, but made his way back to Cincinnati (after brief pit stops in Seattle and San Francisco) by the end of the 2022.
Coming off their 11-point win over the Brooklyn Nets, the Miami Heat enter Friday's second night of a back-to-back against the Boston Celtics down multiple rotation players, including guards Tyler Herro and Pelle Larsson.

Dani Olmo: The return of a champion? As reported by SPORT, Olmo was one of the best performers for Barcelona in the win over Deportivo Alaves, and his performance has been backed by numbers as well. Playing the full 90 minutes, the Spaniard registered a decisive brace, scoring his first league goals since September. His second goal, coming deep into stoppage time, sealed the victory after Lamine Yamal's earlier equaliser.
Bruno Guimaraes has been a key player for Newcastle in the competition thus far. He has made the joint-most passes breaking the opposition's defensive line in the Champions League this season (nine - level with Joshua Kimmich). And Atletico Madrid (35) are the only team with more defensive line-breaking passes than the Magpies (32) in the competition overall this term.
It appears Battlefield 6 has received a stealthy backend update that tweaks the way your player stats are tracked. Now, EA's military shooter will seemingly no longer count the bots you kill in a match, but if you get blasted by a bot, that death will still show up in your stats sheet for now. According to a November 18 X post by the community news source Battlefield Bulletin, the update was deployed to make the game's stats accurate and fair.
From his manerisms on the field to his bat flip in the postseason, Guerrero takes home the award after inking the largest contract in franchise history at 14 years and $500 million earlier this season. Every time he stepped on the field, he was providing energy, and the MLB commented on the award for Guerrero that he "shined both on and off the field this season".
Toronto Raptors' wing Brandon Ingram has been fined $25,000 for "forcibly throwing his water bottle to the floor while on the bench," during the Raptors' 130-120 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Nov. 8 at Xfinity Mobile Arena. The bottle made contact with a game attendant and caused a game delay to dry the court, which occurred with 6:25 remaining in the third quarter.
Rogers has agreed to fresh terms with Unai Emery's side, having arrived at Villa Park for a reported £15m fee from Championship side Middlesbrough in February last year. The 23-year-old has become an integral part of Villa's squad since his arrival, scoring 18 goals and providing 17 assists in 86 appearances across all competitions. Indeed, 27 of his 35 goal involvements came during a stellar campaign in 2024-25, a total only bettered by Ollie Watkins (31) among Emery's squad.
Since joining on loan from Manchester United, the English forward has been nothing short of spectacular. In just 14 appearances across La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, Rashford has already contributed six goals and five assists, emerging as one of Barcelona's most decisive attacking forces this season. What makes Rashford's form even more impressive is how it compares to Joao Felix, another high-profile loanee who joined Barcelona in 2023.
Borucki, a former Blue Jays prospect who spent five seasons with the Blue Jays, was picked on a MiLB deal in late August after he was released by the Pittsburgh Pirates. He would appear in four games for the Jays this year, allowing just three hits with zero walks and zero runs across 4 1/3 innings while striking out five.
Arsenal central midfielder Martin Zubimendi is having a superb impact since joining the Gunners this summer, and he had arguably his best game for the club last night. Zubimendi ran the show from midfield as Arsenal thrashed Atletico Madrid 4-0 in a stunning Champions League performance, and it's earned him big praise. Football stats expert Statman Dave posted on X to show just how good Zubimendi's numbers were in last night's game, with the Spain international excelling in every department.
Tucker isn't going into free agency with the ideal amount of momentum. His 2024 season was truncated by a shin fracture. His 2025 campaign was dragged down by a finger fracture and a calf strain.

Hidalgo is coming off a season that saw the talented guard become just the fourth sophomore to earn All-America honors in her first two years.

Courtney Paris and Maya Moore were also All-Americans their first two seasons.
