ST. LOUIS (AP) – Cardinals right-hander Lance Lynn has had Tommy John surgery and will be sidelined all of next season. St. Louis said the 28-year-old Lynn had the surprise surgery Tuesday. The operation repaired a torn ulnar collateral ligament while having the ulnar nerve transposed and bone chips removed. The 28-year-old Lynn missed a couple of starts in June with a forearm strain.

Lynn’s health was not mentioned by the Cardinals at their season-ending news conference. Lynn was 12-11 with a 3.03 ERA last season. He was an All-Star in 2012 and has three straight seasons of 30 or more starts. He’s among 16 pitchers to work 175 or more innings each of the last four years. The loss of Lynn is the latest blow to the NL Central champion Cardinals pitching depth.

Talented youngster Carlos Martinez was shut down at the end of the season with a shoulder strain. John Lackey is a free agent and Adam Wainwright made only a handful of relief appearances at the end of the regular season and in the division series in his comeback from an Achilles injury. Top pitching prospect Alex Reyes was suspended Monday 50 games for testing positive for a drug of abuse.

Notre Dame has moved into the top four in the second College Football Playoff selection committee rankings of the season. Clemson remained No. 1 on Tuesday night, with Alabama moving up two spots to No. 2, Ohio State staying at No. 3 and the Fighting Irish up a spot to No. 4. Notre Dame and Alabama each has one loss.

Unbeaten Iowa was promoted four spots to No. 5, and Baylor is the highest-ranked Big 12 team at No. 6. LSU, No. 2 last week, dropped to No. 9 after losing at Alabama.

NEW YORK (AP) — St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Alex Reyes has been suspended for 50 games under baseball’s minor league drug program following a second positive test for a drug of abuse. Reyes had been with the Surprise Saguaros of the Arizona Fall League and will miss the rest of the AFL season, the commissioner’s office said Monday.

A 21-year-old right-hander, Reyes was 5-7 with a 2.49 ERA in 22 starts at rookie, Class A and Double-A this year. He struck out 151 in 101 1-3 innings. There have been 95 suspensions this year under the minor league program, including 37 for drugs of abuse.

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State senior Georges Niang has been named an Associated Press Preseason All-American, announced Monday by the organization. Also on the team are Kyle Wiltjer (Gonzaga), Buddy Hield (Oklahoma), Kris Dunn (Providence) and Ben Simmons (LSU).

The Cyclone forward is the school’s first preseason All-American since Jamaal Tinsley in 2000.

Niang, a Methuen, Massachusetts, native, earned a spot on the top team after averaging 15.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists last season. He was one of just two players in the nation 6-8 or taller to average at least 15.0 points and 3.0 assists in 2014-15.

Niang enters his final season as a Cyclone with 1,510 career points, which is fifth among active Division I players. He is the only player nationally with 1,500 points, 450 rebounds and 300 assists, earning All-America honors from The Associated Press and National Association of Basketball Coaches in 2014-15.

Niang had 11 points, nine rebounds and seven assists in 23 minutes in Iowa State’s exhibition win against Grand Valley State. The Cyclones open the regular season Friday against Colorado in Sioux Falls, S.D.
