Latest blog entries from Bay Area teams across every league
A drunken lifeguard. A laptop with no disk space. A millenial regularly buying and consuming avocado toast. The San Francisco Giants bullpen. What do they have in common? They’re not good at saving. That was the case Friday night at Coors Field, where the Colorado Rockies hit two home runs and scored five runs off […]
The Athletics as an organization have gotten themselves in a weird situation where they, as a major league team, are playing games in a minor league ballpark. The team themselves are a perfectly solid major league team, fighting atop an iffy AL West at this point of the season, with young talent that could make […]
The Athletics and New York Yankees kicked off a three-game weekend series tonight in Sacramento. The A’s entered the game trying to end a three-game losing streak, while the Yankees sought to make it five-straight wins. The “Bronx Bombers” took the lead before most fans had reached their seats and did not look back, earning […]
The Rockies came home trying to end a losing streak against a reeling division opponent. They did it by turning a frustrating offensive night into their first walk-off win of the season. Colorado beat San Francisco 8-6 on Friday at Coors Field, improving to 21-37 while dropping the Giants to 22-35. The Rockies trailed 4-1 […]
Carlos Rodón (#55, 33, LHP, 0-2, 4.15) vs. Luis Severino (#40, 32, RHP, 2-5, 4.23) YANKEES CF T. The post Yankees (34-22) @ Athletics (27-29), Friday, May 29, 2026, 9:40 PM EDT appeared first on Replacement Level Yankee Weblog .
After an up-and-down homestand, the Yankees opened this week with a quite successful series in Kansas City against the Royals. Now, it’s time for them to go even further west as they take on the Athletics in West Sacramento. The A’s come into this series just half a game back in the AL West standings, […]
The San Francisco Giants head to Coors Field tonight to begin a three-game series against the Colorado Rockies. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Logan Webb, who enters tonight’s game with a 5.06 ERA, 3.52 FIP, with 42 strikeouts to 15 walks in 48 innings pitched. His last start was in the […]
The Athletics had a much-needed day off yesterday to reset and, hopefully, figure out how to play better at home. The team opened its latest homestand by being swept in three games by the Seattle Mariners, who knocked the A’s out of first place in the American League West for the first time in several […]
As expected, the San Francisco Giants made a handful of moves on Friday, as they return from the off day to kick off a 10-game road strip, which starts a stretch of 13 games in as many days. We’d known for a few days that All-Star pitcher Logan Webb would be returning on Friday as […]
Thursday was an off day for the San Francisco Giants, but not for their Minor League Baseball affiliates. All five of the teams who are in season played on Thursday (the Dominican Summer League doesn’t begin until Monday), and there were some exciting performances to talk about. So let’s talk about them! Link to the […]
The San Francisco 49ers had quite the busy offseason, be it the work they did in free agency or the eight selections they made during the 2026 NFL Draft. As a result, many analysts have placed the 49ers back into contender status as they hope to make a push for a Super Bowl again in […]
Paul DePodesta made a name as one of Billy Beane’s acolytes during the Moneyball era and in 2004, at the age of 31 became the Dodgers’ GM. He was hounded by the musty old LA Times sportwriters (who called him “Google Boy) and local LA media for the two seasons he lasted in the job […]
There aren’t many positions open for competition on the San Francisco 49ers as we head into the next phase of the offseason program. When Kyle Shanahan was asked whether Dre Greenlaw was locked in as a starter at WILL linebacker, he responded, “Yeah, definitely.” That’s no surprise after the 49ers traded Dee Winters to the […]
The Mariners finally put together a complete series with every part of the roster firing on all cylinders. That it came against the division leading Athletics and led to a sweep, launching the M’s into first place in the AL West makes it all the sweeter. The team still isn’t above .500 yet — it’s […]
The San Francisco 49ers will play the Tennessee Titans, Los Angeles Chargers, and Las Vegas Raiders this preseason. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said the team is looking into joint practices against its first two preseason opponents at the podium on Thursday, saying, “Yeah, we’re most likely going to go up against Tennessee and the Chargers.” […]
Difference-making run in the 3-2 decision came on ninth-inning homer.
Kyle Shanahan’s passing offense is about timing and rhythm. Getting the football out on time and to the correct read to maximize yards after the catch is the name of the game. However, football is never perfect, and there are times when things get off schedule or require more from the quarterback and the offense. […]
Following a much-needed sweep of the Kansas City Royals, the Yankees enjoyed an off day on Thursday. They next head further west to take on the Athletics, who are very much in the American League’s playoff picture. The first place Rays were also off the schedule, though there were still games of note to take […]
We made it through another week A’s fans! Ready for a huge weekend of A’s baseball? The Yankees are in town and the series kicks off tonight in Sacramento. The Athletics just got swept for just the second time this season and have fallen out of first place so stacking up a couple wins against […]
Back in February, Jordan Westburg got a double-whammy of bad news: after suffering an oblique strain, he started feeling elbow discomfort, only to learn he’d partly torn his UCL—a bad injury, under any circumstances. Most people figured that Jordan Westburg was gone for this calendar year (this even before it was announced in May that […]
Somewhat of a big deal has been made of the fact that the Yankees have built up their solid record so far mostly on the back of below .500 teams. That leaves them somewhat in an interesting conundrum this weekend. This weekend the Yankees will face the Athletics, who come in at 27-29. A Yankees’ […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants are back on the road this weekend, so it’s time to do our semi-regular temp check to see how everyone is feeling about how the season is going at the moment. Personally, getting swept by the Arizona Diamondbacks two weeks in a row doesn’t really inspire confidence. […]
After a well-earned day off, the Yankees have their final series of May in front of them with a trip to Sacramento to visit the Athletics. The not-yet-Vegas A’s were the first team to take a series against New York way back in the first week of April, as they took two of three in […]
49ers’ Nick Bosa on track for training camp but not rushing recovery: OTA notebook (paywall)“The San Francisco 49ers defensive end said that after tearing his left ACL in 2020, he tried to push every recovery milestone as hard as he could. “And I probably dealt with some stuff that I didn’t need to deal with […]
The San Francisco Giants have the second-worst record and the second-worst run differential in the National League. The only thing saving them from total and utter basement-dwelling is the Colorado Rockies. Recently, insider Bob Nightengale reported that the Giants, whom he calls, "the Worst Team Money Can Buy", are trying to unload some of their biggest contracts. That would include the $225M remaining for Rafael Devers, the $161M remaining on Willy Adames's deal, and the $125M left for...
