The Mountain West made waves this past weekend with the unexpected edition of FCS football powerhouse North Dakota State. Not only are the Bison joining the conference, but they will also be participating this fall. As it currently stands, North Dakota State will not be playoff or bowl eligible until the 2028 season. Nor will […]
Nine players have been born on February 12th and have gone on to wear the pinstripes, but none of them had totally memorable tenures in New York. Pat Dobson was a mainstay in the Yankees’ rotation from 1973-75, and Monk Dubiel started his career with the Yankees in 1944, starting 48 games in two years. […]
With the news of his hamate surgery still fresh in our minds, it’s important that we remember that there is no one on the Mets’ roster – 40-Man or otherwise – that can take Francisco Lindor’s place, even for just a few weeks. But that doesn’t mean that the Mets don’t need someone to play […]
Earlier this week, I reviewed some of my gem selections on offense from the past two seasons. Today, we turn our eyes to the defense. While I have found a few intriguing offensive players during the two years of this exercise, it’s on the defensive side where I’ve done most of my cooking. Let’s dive […]
In 2024, the New Orleans Saints traded a 2025 sixth-round pick to the Washington Commanders for DT John Ridgeway and a 2025 seventh-round pick, which they ultimately used on UCLA TE Moliki Matavao. This offseason, the 26-year-old is set to hit free agency—but should New Orleans bring him back? The former fifth-round pick has primarily […]
After holding our collective breath for Dameon Pierce to carry on his rookie promise, and Joe Mixon to return from magical, mystery, injury land, it’s time to move on. 2025 rookie Woody Marks managed to hammer out 703 yards on 196 carries for a 3.6 yard per carry average in first year. The beating he […]
With the NFL season now over, the eyes of many football fans are looking now toward the offseason, where one former Syracuse Orange player is hoping to take his game to the next level.

Hello everyone! As spring camps open up around the league, we had a flurry of injury news and last-minute signings. Let’s get to all of that and more to begin this Thursday. In Mariners news… Around the league…
11. Roldy Brito (352 points, 18 ballots) Brito was easily the breakout prospect in the Rockies system in 2025. The 18-year-old 5’11” Dominican switch-hitting up-the-middle defender (he played both second base and center field frequently in 2025, plus some shortstop in 2024) was a member of Colorado’s 2024 international signing class, but his $420k bonus was […]
The story of the 2025 Seattle Seahawks is a spacious and languid narrative that sits best somewhere with elbow room, a gigantic beanbag chair, and a quiet corner. When reading back through the archives, the paths of the combined tales of our beloved squad will be evident from the pretense of overlapping notes and timelines, […]
With the Panthers offseason underway and free agency just a couple months away, let’s take a look at some of the areas on the roster that Dan Morgan and Brandt Tillis have to address this offseason. Instead of looking at the entire roster, we are going to break the list down by position group. For […]
The Milwaukee Bucks, winners of four of their last five, do battle for the final time before the All-Star break tonight when they take on the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Thunder smashed the Bucks in the first game this season, but without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, it could be closer this time (though I’m not holding my […]
The Los Angeles Chargers are coming off of a second consecutive playoff appearance, and part of that is a result of the team’s positive rookie class from the 2025 draft. The Chargers selected North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton, Ole Miss wide receiver Tre Harris, Oregon defensive tackle Jamaree Caldwell, South Carolina outside linebacker Kyle […]
Baseball is back with pitchers and catchers reporting yesterday. With that, the Astros extended invites to some prospects that weren’t on the 40 man roster. Here are a few prospects to look out for during Spring Training. Joseph Sullivan Sullivan was the Astros 7th round pick in 2024 after a solid college career at South […]
It appears, to me at least, that Cubs President of Baseball Operations Jed Hoyer has put together a pretty strong 40-man roster. This Cubs team should be a World Series contender and, at the very least, be the NL Central champion. That’s obviously the goal, and the team as constructed should be able to do […]
Mizzou women’s basketball saw its three-game winning streak ended on Sunday by way of an 85-66 home loss to Georgia. This loss now placed the Tigers at 16-10, 4-7 in the SEC. This concluded a key stretch in which Mizzou only faced one ranked opponent over the last seven games. The Tigers made the most […]
With the 2026 Softball season getting underway last weekend the Baseball season is now also upon us as the Ducks will take on George Mason this weekend at PK Park for a 3 game weekend series to start 2026. The Ducks will have another tune-up series the following weekend when Youngstown State comes to Eugene […]
The Brewers put together a historical season in 2025. They won a franchise-record 97 games and broke their postseason losing streak, advancing to the NLCS for the first time since 2018.

Down a rabbit hole of things that didn’t happen, the Red Sox apparently made several attempts to acquire Zach Neto from the Angels before pivoting and trading with the Brewers for Caleb Durbin. This was confirmed by Sean McAdam earlier this week, and from there, Tyler Milliken was asking the right question. Neto is one […]
This week on The IX Sports Hockey podcast, Maya is joined by Reid to check in on the Olympics.
The Pittsburgh Pirates are looking to improve their offense, and they might have a candidate in Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos. The Athletic insider Matt Gelb is reporting that Castellanos will either be traded or released by the Phillies during Spring Training. “Photos line the hallway that leads from the lobby to the Phillies’ clubhouse […]
Yesterday, Paul Toboni finally made a move in the rotation. Bringing in Miles Mikolas on a one-year $2.25 million deal is not exactly what fans were dreaming of, but it is a move. With Mikolas highly likely to be in the rotation, I wanted to take a look at what the Nats pitching staff could […]
