The New England Patriots have been experimenting with offensive tackle Isaiah Wynn this offseason by moving him from left to right tackle.

Giants Close Out First Round With Reggie Crawford

The San Francisco Giants closed out the first round of Sunday's 2022 MLB draft by taking Connecticut left-hander/first baseman Reggie Crawford with the 30th overall pick.

[…]

The Atlanta Braves took Riverside-Brookfield High School right-hander Owen Murphy with the 20th overall pick in the 2022 MLB draft on Sunday.
