Drew Smith and lingering questions

 The Nats brought in Drew Smith.  He just went through his second Tommy John but says he's fully recovered.  He's been a live-arm guy who has always outperformed his fancy stats.  If one was to theorize it could be because his fastball is fantastic and when he needs to dial it up to get an out he can do it.

Arizona Diamondbacks 2026 Non-Roster Invitees, Part 5

I was about to say we finished with the pitchers, but since our previous installment, the D-backs added a couple of further players on minor-league contracts, with spring training invites. While they don’t yet appear on the team’s official page of non-roster invitees, I figure I should catch up with these before I forget, and […]

Patriots free agency 2026: K’Lavon Chaisson is not going to come cheap

Despite finishing the season strongly, the New England Patriots’ pass rush had its ups and downs throughout the 2025 campaign. It wasn’t due to K’Lavon Chaisson’s efforts, though: the first-year Patriot proved himself a disruptive player who finished the year setting multiple career marks and leading the team in several statistical categories. Needless to say, […]
