Seattle Mariners outfielder Dominic Canzone was activated Wednesday after missing a month with a left shoulder injury. Canzone was placed on the injured list on April 15 with a sprained AC joint in his shoulder after crashing into the outfield wall. Canzone played three games on a rehab assignment and was instantly placed into the lineup in left field for Wednesday’s series finale against Kansas City.
With the future of the Atlantic Coast Conference in question, commissioner Jim Phillips expressed optimism Wednesday that the league can still be salvaged. “You have to stay optimistic, and you work through these things,” Phillips said at the conclusion of the league’s annual spring meetings. The ACC has experienced significant disruption in the past six months, most notably with Florida State and the league suing each other in December.
