With momentum heading into first road series, Padres turn to Boston

The San Diego Padres needed a win like Wednesday afternoon’s. As the Padres bludgeoned the San Francisco Giants, 7-1, to salvage the series finale, they finally put together an offense that matched what it looks like on paper. The club (after only recording nine extra-base hits going into Wednesday’s contest) had five XBH, including four […]

State of the NFC South entering Week 16

Tampa Bay Buccaneers This division makes no sense. The Buccaneers needed to bounce back from their embarrassing loss to the Saints in week 15, but instead of getting the job done, they lost again, this time against the Falcons. Tampa Bay’s defense could not stop Kirk Cousins and the entire Falcons offense, and on the […]

Rocket Report: Reinbacher’s Renaissance

William Shoukri and Patrik Bexell teams up to talk about Laval Rocket and the ‘Big Beautiful Brawl’ where Alex Belzile, Laurent Dauphin (whom we forgot while recording) and Joshua Roy received three games suspensions, but more importantly what has happened to Joshua Roy since his demotion from the Montreal Canadiens? He isn’t on the first line of the Rocket, is that Pascal Vincent’s fault or Joshua Roy’s? However, points aren’t coming at the pace fans, or Eyes on the Prize staff, expected. ...

How did Royals pitchers fare in the Arizona Fall League?

Welcome back reader! If you are reading this, you’ve probably already read the earlier entry breaking down Royals hitter performances in the Arizona Fall League. If you haven’t, go back and read it! We’re back today to do the same for pitchers. Five pitchers from the Royals organization (as of the beginning of AFL play) took the […]

How a trumpet and a bear got my kids to love the Mets

There’s something about baseball and fatherhood.* *I know this is extraordinarily early to put a caveat in a piece like this, but I want to acknowledge two things up front. First of all, saying ’there’s something about baseball and fatherhood’ does not exclude nor negate all the other wonderful ways that folks get into baseball […]

Week 16 NFL Game Preview: Chicago Bears vs. Green Bay Packers

This is the game. This is the week. This is the moment. This game is the reason the Chicago Bears hired Ben Johnson. This is why they drafted Caleb Williams with the No. 1 overall pick. This is why Ryan Poles traded for Joe Thuney, Jonah Jackson, drafted Darnell Wright and Ozzy Trapilo. Everything the […]

Syracuse football: Carney and Singleton among latest to announce transfer plans

Since our last update, four more Syracuse Orange players have announced their intentions to enter the transfer portal. Quarterback Luke Carney and defensive backs Jalil Martin, Kaylib Singleton and Ta’Ron Haile are the latest to depart the Orange. Carney’s going to draw the most fan attention, but Singleton was the 2nd highest rated recruit in […]

Lions News: Refs warn Lions to stop creative celebration

NFL officials are fed up with a certain celebration from a few Detroit Lions players on offense. On the St. Brown Podcast, Amon-Ra said refs for their recent matchup against the Los Angeles Rams took issue with their first drive celebration—mimicking picking their nose and flicking the booger away, while mimicking a first down pose. […]

Cubs trade target: Kris Bubic

Thanks again to BCB reader JayWent for this article suggestion. Kris Bubic has talent — he was a No. 1 pick (40th overall) in 2018 out of Stanford. If that date and school sounds familiar, it should, because Nico Hoerner was the Cubs’ No. 1 pick out of Stanford that year, thus Bubic and Hoerner […]

The Dallas Mavericks and the illusion of optionality

1,192 wins – if you had told me as a kid in the ‘90s that the Dallas Mavericks would stand second in regular-season wins from 2000 to 2025…I would not have believed it possible. The first embedded video in this post, on its face, feels like a celebration. It shows 1,192 regular-season wins across the […]

Crystal Palace Confident Marc Guehi Will See Out Season

Amidst an uptick in rumours suggesting Manchester City and Bayern Munich have fully joined the race to sign Liverpool target Marc Guehi, whose move to Anfield collapsed on deadline day at the end of the summer transfer window, there’s more potential bad news for the Reds. Many had long expected Liverpool would return for Guehi […]

Thursday Morning Links

Morning, all! Evan Grant observes that the Rangers are trying to put together a bullpen out of castoffs and spare parts but that they have a decent track record of actually pulling that off. And that’s all I’m finding this morning.
