GM #77: Seattle Kraken @ Winnipeg Jets

I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter long weekend…I certainly am happy that I used a few holiday days to stretch it to a full 7 days without doing my day job. Moving on to look at the Western Conference’s wildcard race before action gets underway on Monday. The Winnipeg Jets are currently 3 points behind the Nashville Predators & Los Angeles Kings, who are tied for the 8th and final spot. The San Jose Sharks are only 2 points back of those clubs and 1 up on the Jets, while the St. Loui...

The other times the Giants have started 3-7

It’s only 10 games, people! That’s just 6.2% of the season! The San Francisco Giants’ 3-7 start, then, shouldn’t be cause for a complete fandom meltdown. Seriously! Okay… honestly. Okay… maybe. Look, it’s not great. It’s reflective of all the downside risks that were apparent when the team was cobbled together in the offseason. But […]

What’s an underrated need for the 49ers heading into the NFL Draft?

When it comes to the San Francisco 49ers’ needs heading into the NFL Draft, wide receiver and another pass rusher are at the top of the list. After you’re done deciding which of those positions are more pressing to address, you’ll probably land on one of the spots in the secondary if you haven’t penciled […]

49ers positional group vibe check Power Rankings

The San Francisco 49ers were relatively active with the opening of the new league year, adding players like Mike Evans, Osa Odighizuwa, and Dre Greenlaw, among others. But now the bulk of free agency is over, and the draft is just around the corner. I wouldn’t expect the 49ers to add any player of note […]

Monday BP: What’s on deck for this week?

Good morning, baseball fans! It’s a new week of San Francisco Giants baseball, so let’s take a look at what’s on deck for this week! First up, the Giants welcome the Philadelphia Phillies to town for a three-game series starting tonight. After that, they will head east to start a road trip with a three-game […]

3 Offseason Trade Destinations for Maple Leafs' Simon Benoit

With the Toronto Maple Leafs having such a frustrating 2025-26 season, it is very likely that they will be making several changes to their roster this offseason. One trade candidate who should be watched closely during the offseason is defenseman Simon Benoit. Due to this, let's take a look at three teams that could look to acquire Benoit during the summer now.  San Jose Sharks  The Sharks should be on the hunt for defensive help this offseason, as they have several pending UFA bluel...

An honest review of the Jonathan Kuminga experience

It’s been a little over a month since Jonathan Kuminga made his Atlanta Hawks debut, and while the team has been red-hot since the All-Star break, it’s been a bit of a mixed bag for the former Warrior as he acclimates to his new surroundings.  In 13 games for Atlanta (25 possible appearances*), Kuminga has […]

Rockets get out of the Bay (area) with a win 117-116

This one will actually be fairly brief, as it’s very late for me. It almost got very late for the Rockets, too. Despite having a double digit lead in the 4th quarter, the Rockets almost (but didn’t!) lost it late. If you’ve ever seen most games where the Rockets play Golden State in San Francisco, […]

Blazers Guaranteed One Home Postseason Game

The Portland Trail Blazers will have at least one home game in the 2025-26 NBA postseason. By nature of the Golden State Warriors losing tonight, Portland is now four games ahead of Golden State with four games to play. Since Portland won their season series, the Blazers can no longer fall to 10th. That means […]

A’s Walk-off Astros, Win First Series of 2026

If you were curious to what the “2026 A’s experience” was going to be like, you should’ve attended these past three games in West Sac like I did. Over the course of a 72-hour period, they blew out a division rival, got blown out by a division rival, went eleven innings deep against a division […]

Sharks’ Comeback Falls Apart in 6-3 Loss to Predators

Alexander Wennberg’s third-period equalizer felt like a turning point. After erasing a three-goal deficit, the San Jose Sharks had life, energy, and belief. But against a playoff-caliber Nashville Predators team, it slipped away just as quickly in a 6-3 loss Saturday night at SAP Center. The San Jose Sharks fell to the Nashville predators 6-3 Saturday night at the SAP Center after a four game win streak. San Jose has yet to beat Nashville since 2019, and this game was another taste of wha...

Astros vs. A’s Game Thread, Game 10, 4/5/2026

The Houston Astros (6-3) look to take the rubber game of a 3 game series with the Athletics (2-6) in Sacramento. RHP Lance McCullers Jr. will be on the mound for the Astros this afternoon opposite LHP Jacob Lopez and the Athletics. ABOUT MCCULLERS: RHP Lance McCullers Jr. is set to make his second start […]

4/5 Gamethread: Giants vs. Mets

The San Francisco Giants started their four-game series against the New York Mets in exciting fashion. Then it turned downhill very, very quickly, with two ugly losses. Now, on Easter Sunday, the Giants will look to get back in the win column, and earn a series split. Taking the mound for San Francisco is their […]

Game #9: Astros at Athletics Game Thread

Our A’s and the Astros traded blowout wins in the first two games of the series. Today’s rubber match will determine who takes the series. The Athletics have an excellent chance to win their first of the year and get on the right foot before heading to New York. Left-hander Jacob Lopez is set to […]

Easter Elephant Has Been Hiding Wins

He lays huge eggs and bounds around the garden hiding them while trumpeting loudly and splashing in the water from the nearby sprinkler. Yes he’s the famous and beloved Easter Elephant and the A’s are but 2-6 as the calendar hits his special day. Let’s go inside a couple numbers to see why or how […]

Jed York’s lack of involvement may show growth as an owner

The San Francisco 49ers’ owner has changed quite a bit since hiring Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch. During the NFL Annual League Meeting, York made time for the media and mentioned having seen an interview between NBC Sports Bay Area’s Jennifer Lee Chan and 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan. “Why the hell is he [Shanahan] […]
