While Brandon Sproat is my pick to be the next Brewers “pitching lab” success story, I started writing that article before the Brewers traded for left-hander Kyle Harrison (4.09 ERA in 2025). Harrison — the main piece acquired in the trade that sent Caleb Durbin to Boston— might have an even more intriguing profile. He’s […]

The Dallas Mavericks are currently in the midst of their longest losing streak since before the calendar turned over to a new century.

As players report to Spring Training the Red Sox brass are showing their faces as well. And for some reason they are deciding to speak publicly. While availability to the press is definitely a better than the Where In the World Is John Henry? (Do it Rockapella!) game that has been played the last few […]
Happy President’s Day, Camden Chatters! If you’ve got the day off from work today, I hope you use it wisely. I plan to do some relaxing.

Objectively speaking, escaping a hostile environment like the Diego Maradona with a point in hand is a decent day at the office. However, as with most things, context matters. In Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Napoli, Roma squandered an opportunity to solidify (ish) their grip on fourth place. A victory over Antonio Conte’s club would have […]

We’re back with another daily question, and today, it’s all about the Quantum Leap. In 2024, Brice Turang took a huge step forward, going from 1.5 bWAR in 2023 to 4.7 the following year (and then progressing to a team-best 5.6 WAR in 2025). In 2025, it was Sal Frelick’s turn, as he went from […]

The Cleveland Cavaliers took a big swing at the trade deadline by swapping Darius Garland for James Harden. Initial returns are positive. Harden showed up and blended in faster than anybody could have reasonably expected. His gifts in the pick-and-roll are obvious, and with them, Jarrett Allen is flourishing. Donovan Mitchell and Harden already have […]
The 2026 free agency period could be the first time in which the Detroit Lions might be forced to say goodbye to some once important parts of their roster. Between ages creeping up and a salary cap shrinking amid expensive extensions, the Lions will have to spend wisely in free agency in their attempt to […]

Friday evening was the kick off to the NBA All-Star Weekend. It was also the Chris Paul officially announced his retirement. There are many, many accolades to list after the career the Point God had.

It’s not December, but the holidays came early for fans of the Toronto Raptors during NBA All-Star Sunday. The ghosts of Raptors past and present played an instrumental role for their respective teams – for the most part. It may be awhile until All-Star weekend returns to Toronto because of the a bitter cold 2016 […]
As expected, Mark Pope’s Kentucky Wildcats fell out of the AP Top 25 Poll and are no longer ranked. They’re still getting the fifth-most votes in the AP Poll and the sixth-most votes in the Coaches Poll, so a strong week could push them back into the top 25. Meanwhile, Kenny Brooks’ squad rose up […]
