Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin is one of the most heralded players in NHL history. The legendary forward has already etched his name in history, but he's still chasing Wayne Gretzky's all-time goals record.

Alex Ovechkin has scored his 888th career goal to move seven away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s NHL career record. Ovechkin scored in the Washington Capitals’ home game against the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday night,

Ovechkin beat Samuel Ersson with 5:35 left in the first period to move seven goals back of passing Wayne Gretzky’s career mark of 894.

The left-handed hitting Verdugo played for the Los Angeles Dodgers for three seasons, beginning in 2017. He has a career batting average of .272 and is a superior defender.

Alex Verdugo served as the Yankees' left fielder throughout last year’s World Series. He will begin this season at the Triple-A level, just hoping the Braves might eventually have a need to add him to their outfield mix.

The Atlanta Braves have reportedly agreed to a one-year, $1.5 million contract with former New York Yankees outfielder Alex Verdugo.

After Alex Bregman turned down the Astros' six-year, $156 million offer this offseason, there were several reports linking the infielder to the Tigers.

The Alex Bregman addition to the Red Sox didn't seem to move Rafael Devers the right way, but the team has tipped their hand at how those two will be positioned in the lineup.
