#CardCorner: 1975 Topps Rowland Office
Rowland Office, the 1975 Topps rookie highlighted in the Hall of Fame’s #CardCorner series, logged a 29‑game hitting streak in 1976—the closest any of his 11‑year MLB career (Braves, Expos, Yankees) came to joining the 30‑game club. Drafted by Atlanta in the fourth round of 1970, Office debuted at 19, became the youngest player in the majors that season, and later backed up Dusty Baker while taking over for Hank Aaron after the legend’s record‑breaking 715th homer on April 8, 1974. He finished 1974 with a .246 average in 131 games and finished his career batting .259. The article traces his rise from high‑school star to its most memorable streak and includes a Topps card photo.

Bold Trade Predictions For 2026 Offseason: NL West Edition
Sportsnaut outlines one likely trade candidate from each NL West club ahead of the 2027 season. The Dodgers could flip corner outfielder Teoscar Hernández, a $22 million‑contract player who hit .267 with 16 homers in 2026, with Toronto, Chicago or San Diego as possible destinations. The Padres may move catcher Luis Campusano, whose breakout .265/.363/.433 line in 71 games could fetch rotation help for a team desperate for starters. Arizona’s Lars Nootbaar, a 29‑year‑old left‑fielder who posted a modest .261/.367/.418 slash in 2023, is another possible piece, though the Diamondbacks are likely to keep him unless a rebuild accelerates.

Jordan Walsh understands the bigger picture with his starting role
Jordan Walsh embraces his new starting role for the Boston Celtics, turning a previous snub into fuel. After a strong defensive stretch last season that earned him a three‑year, $15 million extension, Walsh starts the 2026‑27 season alongside Mitchell Robinson, Derrick White, Paul George and Jayson Tatum. The unit ranks fourth in offensive rating (118.9) and second defensively (101.3), with Walsh ranked fourth among point‑of‑attack defenders by BBall Index. He aims to expand his offensive game, shooting 45% from the field and 40% from three so far, and highlighted a 15‑point performance against Brooklyn. Coach Joe Mazzulla sees Walsh’s on‑ball defense as a tone‑setter that frees Paul George to excel off the ball.
