87 hitters have taken 100 PA so far in AA leagues so far this season. The best batting line among them belongs to the Blue Jays’ 2024 fourth round draft pick, Sean Keys. Keys played his college ball at Bucknell, putting up ridiculous numbers against pretty pedestrian Patriot League competition. He popped a bit with […]
And then there were two. The World Series field was officially set on Monday night, following a thrilling baseball game to conclude the ALCS. Thanks to a three-run home run by George Springer in the seventh inning, the Toronto Blue Jays completed their comeback (in both the game and in the series), winning 4-3 (in […]
When Arizona started 3-0 for the first time in 10 years, and after five games sat at 4-1, reaching a bowl game looked fairly likely. But after back-to-back losses, albeit by one score apiece and to teams with a combined 13-1 record, the prospect of a 13th game for the 2025 season isn’t as rosy. […]
The last ticket to the World Series was on the line on Monday, with the Mariners and Blue Jays clashing in a Game 7 that promised to cap off a thrilling ALCS. After dropping the first two games, Toronto rallied to even up the series before Seattle moved closer to the Fall Classic than they’ve […]
Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson expects a proposal for a Royals ballpark in the state at the next Legislative Coordinating Council meeting. Masterson chairs the LCC. It has set an end of the year calendar date for the team on whether they’re planning to move to the Sunflower State. “I am anticipating being presented with a proposal […]
The Orioles system features several talented pitchers that could potentially debut in 2026 but cannot be counted as a sure thing quite yet. Michael Forret, Trey Gibson, and Levi Wells make for an intriguing bunch, and Juaron Watts-Brown made an impression after coming over at the trade deadline. Any one of those four could become […]
The Colorado Rockies are reportedly nearing the finish line on a monumental decision and will be interviewing finalists to head their baseball operations. Unknown is if this hire will carry the title of “president of baseball operations” or “general manager,” but whomever is selected will have rippling consequences for years to come. “This is one […]
As Patriots tight end Austin Hooper walked off the field in Nashville on Sunday, he knew his quarterback had an efficient day passing the football. But the veteran tight end just didn’t realize exactly how efficient until he checked the box score. “My goodness,” Hooper recalled himself thinking. That box score for quarterback Drake Maye […]
The Carolina Panthers are suddenly 4-3 with a real shot at ending their seven-year postseason drought. Third-year quarterback Bryce Young continues to improve, running back Rico Dowdle has burst onto the scene, and eighth-overall pick Tetairoa McMillan looks like a true WR1. Yet it’s the Panthers’ defense that deserves much of the praise. After fielding […]

We cover the coverage like PCA covers center field. Life will be commencing shortly — the World Series will be over, and the Free Agency Freezer will open once again. MLB execs will be more close-mouthed than Edward Teller, or even Raymond Joseph Derickson Teller, and will probably shave their expectations closer than Penn Jillette […]
The Miami Hurricanes have slipped to 5-1 and lost to another unranked team under Mario Cristobal. This time it was the Jeff Brohm led Louisville Cardinals, a program that’s 2-1 against Miami during the Cristobal Era. ‘Canes fans are clearly heartbroken and have been writing in sharing their concerns all weekend. We’ll attempt to answer […]
“But if I ran the zoo…I’d make a few changes…that’s just what I’d do” The last two months of the 2025 Twins season produced some of the most painful-to-watch baseball this side of 2011-2014 & 2016—if not the That Which Shall Not Be Named late-1990s. Assuming that no major reinforcements are on the way, I […]
This week I will review Purdue’s 19 – 0 loss at Northwestern and preview the upcoming Rutgers at Purdue game. About last week … This game was a huge disappointment. After the fight shown in Minneapolis, I thought Purdue might play a competitive game against Northwestern. Boy, was I wrong. Northwestern was definitely better prepared […]
Can you believe we are a decade into this opening night predictions? I have to take a quick moment to shout out our previous Canis Hoopus overlords, John Meyer (FAQ incoming), Eric in Madison, Kyle Theige, and Jack Borman for setting a foundation of tradition and pinpoint forecasting abilities. If you really want a few […]

We’ve spoken before about how much we admire Duke Basketball’s social media team. Those guys consistently operate at a very high level and do innovative and cool things.

Iowa basketball has a rich history of producing quality NBA players, including All Stars, league champions, and even an MVP of both the ABA and one of the NBA’s predecessor leagues. However, Iowa’s success in developing productive pros has seriously fallen off in recent decades. Only three former Hawkeyes drafted in the last 20 years […]

Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman told SiriusXM NHL Network Radio the Buffalo Sabres have at minimum discussed their options internally, and Pete DeBoer is part of that chatter. The Buffalo Sabres are six games in (2-4) and already facing hard questions. Friedman noted the organization has set up easy internal moves on the management side, which adds to the sense that changes could come if results do not turn. He also pointed out how ownership influence helped bring back Lindy Ru...
Complacency isn’t a thing around Indiana football. When head coach Curt Cignetti’s teams experience success, which happens far more often than it doesn’t, eliminating complacency throughout his program becomes one of the bigger parts of his job. It’s a trait he shares with his boss, athletic director Scott Dolson. When Indiana surged to even greater […]
