As the only player to have accomplished the MVP Trifecta (Most Valuable Player Award, the League Championship Most Valuable Player Award and the World Series Most Valuable Player Award) in the same season, Willie Stargell’s place in the Hall of Fame was also cement...
The Yankees hadn’t lost to the Royals in 11 consecutive games, dating back to Game 2 of the 2024 ALDS. That almost changed this Memorial Day afternoon. After grabbing a pair of early runs, the Yankee offense appeared to rest on their laurels, watching passively as the Royals battled back to take a 3-2 lead […]

Folks. What was this baseball game??? I cannot believe what I just saw. The Orioles just won a game against the best team in baseball in which they were shut out until the seventh inning, then trailed by two runs in the 11th inning, then trailed by a run in the 12th, then trailed by […]
The Big Ten has a wonderfully strange 2026 coaching mix: national-title winners, program builders, first-year hires, veteran lifers, portal-era climbers, and at least three guys who seem like they would bring laminated depth charts to a pond. For this fishing-trip scouting report, I’m leaning on current public coach rankings, school announcements, and the general reputations […]

The Edmonton Oilers are in for some massive roster changes. Defenceman Darnell Nurse has been linked as a prime offseason trade candidate, and it has a lot to due with his contract. Nurse is signed through the 2030 season at $9.25 million AAV, and it's expected that the Oilers will approach Nurse in the coming weeks for a list of teams he'd approve a trade to. Nurse holds a full no-movement clause until the 2027-28 season. Daily Faceoff's Matt Larkin cites Nurse as a cap casualty and expects t...
Mets outfielder Tyrone Taylor left the team’s game in the bottom of the sixth inning this afternoon with what the team described as a hip injury. It had looked like something was off earlier in the game, but he was very clearly unable to run all the way to first base on a ground ball […]
Jamal Murray is coming off a career year for the Nuggets, and the timing may never be better to make a move.
Another ninth-inning meltdown wasted a great start from Michael Wacha in a 4-3 loss to the Yankees. This is just brutal to watch. It’s infuriating. The Royals held a 3-2 lead going into the 9th inning, which currently belongs to Lucas Erceg. I’m not sure it will for much longer. In that inning, Salvador Perez […]
The Dodgers’ game on Monday, June 15 against the Tampa Bay Rays at Dodger Stadium was added to ESPN’s collection of exclusive telecasts this season, the network announced on Monday.

Alex Tuch and the Buffalo Sabres' season came to an end last week, but not until he and the team made some inroads towards greater things for the future. The team snapped its 14-year playoff drought, and the Sabres established themselves as a top team in the league again. As for Tuch, he could be the top name in unrestricted free agency this summer. The pending UFA has watched as all of the other top forwards have dropped off the board, signing extensions with their current teams. ...

Happy Memorial Day, everyone (unless you are a Canadian, like me, in which case, happy very belated Victoria Day). The Rays are facing familiar foes this week, as they head to Baltimore to take on the Orioles. The O’s were just in St. Pete last week, where the Rays swept them. However, Baltimore might be […]
It was opening night for our softball season this evening, and we ended capturing victory for a mini-celebration at the end of the game. As we descended upon the local watering hole, we were treated to another Vegas Golden Knights comeback as they went up 3-0 in their Western Conference Final series against the President's Trophy-winning Colorado Avalanche. No one is saying that Vegas was incapable of this moment, but one of my teammates gave me pause when he said that the NHL's penalties asse...

After and exchange of long-ball offense early and then hanging on to a 3-1 win for the White Sox this Memorial Day. But the big play didn’t come from big bats but from 5´6´´ Rikuu Nishida, playing in his first major league game. The Sox and Twins traded solo homers by Brooks Lee and Munetaka […]
