Expectations for Bullpen Moves, ALCS Gets a Game Seven, and Other Cubs Bullets

Maybe it wasn’t a work of art, but the Chicago Bears found a way to win (by multiple scores) a total trap game in nasty conditions. That’s four straight wins for the first time in seven years. A random combination thought about the Cubs’ bullpen group that I want to keep in mind for the offseason. For the last several years running, two things have been true every single year.

NHL weekend rankings: Five surprising early stories I'm not buying quite yet

You have to love the early weeks of an NHL season. One week ago, in our first rankings of the year, we had the Panthers in the top spot because they were 3-0-0, were wondering if anyone could beat the Bruins, and were trying to figure out if the Sabres would ever score again. Things can change quickly, you might say. And every night of NHL action is trying to tell us something. The question is how much of it is real, and how much we should ignore. This week, let’s use our bonus five to plant a...

Commanders Vs. Cowboys (game one) – Studs and Duds

This entire game was ONE BIG DUD… Washington AGAIN came out unprepared and played sloppy all afternoon. Dan Quinn’s squad was “called” for 11 penalties that resulted in 118 yards. Joe Whitt’s defense allowed a staggering 409 yards (6.6 yards per play). That same unit gave up 152 rushing yards. The secondary allowed Lamb and […]

Who takes Game 7?

Today’s question of the day is pretty simple: who wins tonight? The Mariners had a chance to move on to the World Series last night, but they started swinging at everything under God’s blue sky. Trey Yesavage was very good in his start, but the Mariners had him on the ropes a few times by […]

Will Vest rode a new angle to new heights in 2025

No Detroit Tiger broke out on the national stage this postseason as much as their closer, Will Vest. Tarik Skubal is a known star after his dominant, Cy Young-winning 2024 campaign, Kerry Carpenter’s ascent thanks in part to Aaron Judge’s hitting coach has been well covered, and everyone knew Javy Baez already. Meanwhile, the “pitching […]

Orioles season review: Dean Kremer

Imagine if, back in March, someone told you that Dean Kremer would spend most of the season as the #1 or #2 starting pitcher for the Orioles.

Player review: Spencer Bivens

2025 stats: 81 IP, 54 G, 4.00 ERA, 3.70 FIP, 1.33 WHIP, 6.78 K/9, 2.78 BB/9, 0.4 fWAR In 2024, the 29-year old right-hander’s debut in the big leagues was the feel-good story of the year. He had spent a decade on a very long-and-winding road with no promise it would guide him anywhere. Still […]
