SAN FRANCISCO -- Cornerback Eric Wright failed his physical with the San Francisco 49ers, nullifying a trade to bring him to Northern California from Tampa Bay. He was subsequently released by the Buccaneers. San Francisco coach Jim Harbaugh declined to say specifically what portion of the physical Wright failed and made just a brief statement on the situation. "We dont ever talk about that," Harbaugh said Monday. "The information is he didnt pass his physical, hes not on the team." Thus ends a quirky four-day stretch that began after the 49ers appeared to have acquired the former second-round draft pick from Tampa Bay on Friday in exchange for a conditional draft pick in 2014. Shortly thereafter, reports surfaced that Wright had been arrested a week earlier in Los Angeles on an unspecified misdemeanour charge. Its unclear if the 49ers were aware of Wrights situation when they made the trade. Wright was arrested in 2012 on felony DUI charges and was suspended for four games last season by the NFL for violating the performance-enhancing drug policy in his first season with the Bucs. Wright signed a five-year, $35.3 million contract with the Bucs prior to the 2012 season. The move to trade for Wright immediately raised eyebrows after Harbaughs comments during the teams June minicamp when he made it clear he wouldnt accept players breaking the NFLs policy on performance-enhancing drugs for a perceived edge. Even though Wright was never officially on the 49ers roster, Harbaugh emphasized his message is still the same. "That hasnt changed," he said. "I think our guys do a good job of playing within the rules." Harbaugh avoided questions about 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks legal issues. Brooks allegedly hit teammate Lamar Divens in the head with a bottle multiple times during an altercation on June 8 but avoided prosecution when the Santa Clara district attorneys office declined to file charges because of insufficient evidence. Brooks has met with team officials regarding the incident but Harbaugh declined to say what, if any, discipline the veteran linebacker will face. "Had conversations (with him) but not that were going to talk about out here," Harbaugh said. "Im not publicly discussing what our conversations have been with Ahmad or any of our players." The 49ers held the third day of training camp practice for rookies only. Veterans report on Wednesday, one day before the first full team workout. Michael Crabtree, San Franciscos leading receiver in 2012, wont be among them -- at least not on the field. Crabtree underwent surgery on his right Achilles tendon after tearing it during a practice May 21 and is still in the early stages of rehabilitation. The 49ers arent ruling out Crabtree returning at some point during the season. "I wouldnt categorize it as ahead of schedule because he is just starting to move on it," Harbaugh said. "Its just been healing but it looks great. Thats from the words of the doctor." The news on Kyle Williams is more encouraging. Harbaugh said he is very optimistic Williams will be able to practice when the veterans check in. Williams is coming back from a knee injury suffered late last season.Steve Cishek Jersey .

I was happy for the opportunity. I havent (had that chance) a whole lot over my career but those are fun situations to be in and when you come through like tonight, its even better.It was a tough way for Chicago to lose as its dropped three straight contests. The White Sox trail the Central Division-leading Cleveland Indians by 9 1/2 games and the Boston Red Sox, the second wildcard, by seven.You feel like you gave it to them if youre not going to throw strikes, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. Thats what makes it tougher.Chicago tries to get back on track with Miguel Gonzalez on the mound Saturday. Gonzalez boasts a 2-5 record and a pedestrian 4.28 ERA but has been solid in five Jully starts, lasting at least six innings in each turn and posting a 2.dddddddddddd76 ERA in that span.

Minnesota traded infielder Eduardo Nunez on Thursday in the first of what is expected to be a busy weekend for the team with the American Leagues worst record. Rumors have been swirling about the future of a number of the Twins veterans.Milone gave up five runs on nine hits and a walk in 3 1/3 innings against the White Sox at U.S. Cellular Field on June 30, but has generally fared well against them in his career. The left-hander is 4-1 with a 2.75 ERA in nine starts. ' ' '
