Well, if the Japanese sports front pages are to believed – take that figuratively or literally, at least in one case – infielder Kazuma Okamoto has three finalists for his services ahead of his January 4 posting expiration. The front page of Nikkan Sports today has Kazuma Okamoto in an Angels, Padres, and Pirates hat as his posting window deadline looms. https://t.co/z1ZqcKABSd — Yakyu Cosmopolitan (@yakyucosmo) December 30, 2025 Maybe he’ll do a college decision-style video wi...
Ahead of Tuesday’s game against New Jersey, Craig Berube discussed the latest spate of injuries decimating the Maple Leafs’ lineup. Can you update us on all of the injuries? Berube: Sure. William Nylander is day-to-day still, so we will see. He is doing better, but he is still day-to-day. He is out today. Auston Matthews […] The post Craig Berube on four more injuries striking the Leafs’ lineup: “A strong team game can take care of these injuries and get you through” appeared first on Maple ...
The Wolves at the Crossroads: The Season So Far and What Must Change in 2026 As the calendar turns from 2025 to 2026, it feels like the perfect moment to take a deep breath, step back, and assess what this Timberwolves season has actually been, not just in wins and losses, but in identity, trajectory, […]
We are back with our final episode of “Before the Roar,” where myself (Morgan) and my good friend Meko Scott are breaking down the last game of the Detroit Lions’ 2025 season against the Chicago Bears, as well as taking a look ahead to what the offseason might hold. We begin by quickly recapping the […]
Another nationally televised game, another 40-burger from the 49ers offense. The quarterback is dealing, the playcaller is dialed in, the running back looks explosive again, and the All-Pro tight end should be back in the lineup for Saturday’s game for the number one seed in the NFC. This is the 49ers offense that was imagined […]
The San Francisco 49ers have quite a few playoff scenarios that could happen in the final week of the regular season, as they’re vying for the No. 1 seed in the NFC. The 49ers will play the Seahawks for the No. 1 seed next weekend at Levi’s Stadium, with the winner getting the coveted first-round […]
ESPN’s Ben Solak just released his All-Rookie rosters in order to “highlight standout debut seasons”, and a pair of Chicago Bears made the list, both on offense. Luther Burden, the second-round pick out of Missouri (#39 overall), made the first team alongside Tet McMillan of the Panthers (#8) and Emeka Egbuka (#19). Burden is making […]
Devin Cooley has made quite the impression as backup goalie for the Calgary Flames—both on and off the ice. In 13 appearances (10 starts), he's logged a .914 save percentage and a 2.40 goals against average. The Flames have seen enough to know that they want him around for a while, and have locked Cooley up to a two-year extension worth $2.7 million (AAV of $1.35M). TOO COOL 😎 Devin Cooley has signed a two-year contract extension with an AAV of $1.35 million! pic.twitter.com/mgP3wvLkH6 — Calga...
As a native New Yorker, the cold never bothered Ari Peña. Growing up much of his days were spent outside, watching and playing baseball. His passion for sports manifested into a continuing run with the New York Gay Flag Football League, which began over 15 years ago. Now for his day-to-day job, Peña serves as […] The post Gay NHL exec brings lifelong sports passion to growing the league appeared first on Outsports .
I touched on this appearance briefly in yesterday’s post in this series, about Victor Caratini. Ian Happ’s lone pitching appearance in the major leagues came in a game where Joe Maddon used three position players to finish up after the Cubs were hopelessly behind. Happ threw the top of the ninth inning July 20, 2018 […]
So, the Blackhawks came out of the Christmas break with a thrilling win in Dallas and a dull thud at home against the Pittsburgh Penguins. That’s kinda the way things have gone this season, isn’t it? The good news for tonight is Nick Foligno is healthy and in the lineup and Ilya Mikheyev also returns from his absence to be with his family. We’re getting closer to a full Blackhawks lineup. The Blackhawks held only an optional morning skate today, so these are the new lines we saw at practi...
What do the Diamondbacks currently look for in pitcher acquisitions? Mike Hazen talked about his acquisition of Michael Soroka. What resonated with me, although it’s far from everything he said, is that there were five things that carried weight. Although some people might see it differently, here are the five things they looked for: How […]
As we embark on the 2nd half of the 2025-26 season, there is a ton going wrong for the Devils. Injuries, management, player regression, scoring slumps – we’ve had a full NJ Diner Menu of issues on and off ice. My track record as a blogging mush is pretty strong: I wrote this blog about […]
Former Espanyol president Joan Collet has warned the team to focus on the game and not the return of Joan Garcia ahead of Saturday’s match with Barcelona. Garcia is set to make his first return to his former club on Saturday, with Espanyol having already upgraded security measures for the match. Collet says that Espanyol – […]
Finding a young player who can weather the storm that comes with playing behind the plate is a tall task for professional scouts, as it takes a strong athlete to spend a full season calling games and taking hits while also trying to provide as much offensive value as possible. Elite catchers are as valuable […]
The Dallas Cowboys head into the 2025 regular-season finale against the New York Giants with 20 players set to hit free agency after the completion of the game. This we know. But, what we don’t know is which players could be joining them who are still under contract that may no longer be in the […]
Few games ever live up to the hype, but Sunday night’s meeting of the Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers definitely did. It didn’t finish the way Chicago wanted, but it was a thrilling game and showed a national audience that Caleb Williams has arrived. And for the most jaded or skeptical Bears fans, it […]
Ourselves and Posh have had similar seasons in many ways: both starting well below par, both sacking managers at similar points and, therefore, hiring new ones around the same time too. Monday night showed the two distinct tactical directions each club has gone down with those hires. Whether you’re a glass-half-full or glass-half-empty kind of […]
The schedule really starts to heat up now as the Carolina Hurricanes (24-11-3) visit the Pittsburgh Penguins (16-12-9) for a game tonight at PPG Paints Arena. Game time is 7 P.M. This will complete the second half of a back-to-back situation for Carolina as they are coming off a 3-2 overtime win last night against […]
As the 2026 NBA Draft approaches, several clubs are angling for that top pick. But whose name will be called with the pick is still a matter of some debate. So let’s run through some of our options with a good, old-fashioned 2026 NBA Mock Draft. The 15-16 Chicago Bulls continue to hover along the periphery of the 2026 NBA Draft lottery. Chicago is a bit more hapless than its record appears. The Bulls are loaded with expiring contracts at key positions of need, and the team’s front of...
We already know that the Chicago Bears will be making their first postseason appearance since 2020. And when they take the field in the playoffs, they will do so as NFC North champions for the first time since 2018. That means the Bears will play a home game as they set out on their Super Bowl journey. However, we do not know who will be on the other sideline in that matchup. But we do have a pretty good idea of who it could be. Potential Chicago Bears Playoff Opponents LOS ANGE...
It’s a big night in Los Angeles, where the Pistons vs Lakers odds predict an Oscar-worthy game. The Pistons have been the surprise story of the East, but they’re coming off a rare couple of losses and are desperate to find their rhythm again. Meanwhile, the Lakers are riding high after a big win over Sacramento. A big story tonight is LeBron James celebrating his 41st birthday on the court. He’ll be carrying a massive load alongside Luka Doncic, especially with the Lakers missing a co...
