NBA Preview: Charlotte Hornets (15-36) at Milwaukee Bucks (33-17)

The Milwaukee Bucks put their four-game winning streak on the line Tuesday when they play host to the Charlotte Hornets.

Charlotte opens a three-game road trip, fresh off stunning the Miami Heat in a 122-117 decision on Sunday to earn consecutive victories.

All five Hornets starters scored in double figures, led by Terry Rozier’s 31 points, as Charlotte posted almost 14 points more than the NBA’s second-stingiest defense allows per contest. P.J. Washington scored 27 points in the win, and Gordon Hayward – playing in just his 25th game this season – scored 20 points.

The performance marked Hayward’s highest scoring output since Nov. 20, as the veteran wing has missed more than half of the Hornets’ games due to a fractured shoulder and hamstring injury.

The Hornets scored a 111-96 rout of the Chicago Bulls on Thursday and have won four of their last six games.

The Bucks seek their fifth consecutive win, which would mark their best stretch since opening the season 9-0.

Milwaukee opened its current, four-game homestand on Sunday with a 135-110 blowout of New Orleans. The Bucks reached at least 130 points for the fifth time in seven games in the dominant performance.

Sunday also marked the second-highest scoring game of the season for two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, who poured in 50 points. Antetokounmpo returned Jan. 23 from a five-game absence due to knee soreness and has averaged 38.3 points over the past four games.

The last two times out, Antetokounmpo produced his ninth and 10th games of 40-plus points on the campaign, notching 41 Friday at Indiana.

In addition to Antetokounmpo’s play since returning to the lineup, Milwaukee has leaned on the standout performance of Jrue Holiday for much of January.

Holiday had scored 20-plus points in seven of his past nine games before his 17-point effort on Sunday. He has four double-doubles since Jan. 6 and is averaging 7.7 assists over that 12-game stretch.

The Bucks’ winning streak has come in spite of losing spark plug Bobby Portis to a knee injury. Portis is averaging a double-double of 14.4 points and 10.1 rebounds, primarily coming off the bench.

Portis missed the last three games and is expected to be sidelined at least two weeks total while recovering from the MCL sprain.

Red Sox acquire left-handed pitcher Richard Bleier from Miami Marlins

Boston sends right-handed pitcher Matt Barnes to Marlins

BOSTON, MA—The Boston Red Sox today acquired left-handed pitcher Richard Bleier from the Miami Marlins, in exchange for right-handed pitcher Matt Barnes and cash considerations.

To make room for Bleier on the 40-man roster, Boston designated right-handed pitcher Franklin German for assignment.

Chief Baseball Officer Chaim Bloom made the announcement.

Bleier, 35, recorded a 3.55 ERA (20 ER/50.2 IP) in 55 appearances (one start) for Miami in 2022, including a 2.30 ERA (8 ER/21.1 IP) over 31 outings from July 1 through the remainder of the season. From 2021-22, he walked only 3.6 percent of batters faced, the majors’ second-lowest rate (min. 100.0 IP) behind only Jacob deGrom (3.4%). The left-hander owns a 3.06 ERA (102 ER/299.2 IP) in 308 career appearances with the New York Yankees (2016), Baltimore Orioles (2017-20), and Marlins (2020-22), holding left-handed hitters to a .225 batting average (115-for-512). A Florida native, Bleier was selected by the Texas Rangers in the sixth round of the 2008 First-Year Player Draft out of Florida Gulf Coast University.

Barnes, 32, was designated for assignment on January 24. He made 44 appearances for the Red Sox in 2022, posting a 4.31 ERA (19 ER/39.2 IP) with eight saves. The right-hander owns a 4.07 ERA (195 ER/431.2 IP) with 47 saves and 547 strikeouts in 429 career appearances (two starts), all with Boston from 2014-22.

German, 25, made his Major League debut in 2022, making five relief appearances with Boston and allowing eight earned runs in 4.0 innings. The right-hander was named the organization’s 2022 Minor League Relief Pitcher of the Year after going 5-2 with seven saves, a 2.72 ERA (15 ER/49.2 IP), and a 0.91 WHIP in 43 appearances between Double-A Portland and Triple-A Worcester.

The 35-year-old played 119 games for the Chicago White Sox last season, batting .256 with 19 doubles, two triples, seven home runs and 50 runs scored. Defensively, he appeared in games at second base (90), third base (23), shortstop (2) and left field (2).

A two-time All-Star, Harrison is a career .272 hitter with 215 doubles, 32 triples, 71 home runs, 378 RBI, 91 steals and 492 runs scored in 1,168 games. Among 67 active players with at least 4,000 career plate appearances, his 642 strikeouts are the sixth-fewest. He has appeared defensively at every position on the field during his career except catcher, including 635 games at second base, 322 at third base and 140 in the outfield between all three positions.
