Latest blog entries from Bay Area teams across every league
The Edmonton Oilers are right back at it tonight in San Jose, and after the way things ended in Utah, there really isn’t any time left for missed opportunities and mistakes. Losing 6-5 in overtime to the Mammoth after holding three separate leads is the kind of result that should leave a bad taste in…
The San Francisco 49ers are hosting their local Pro Day on Wednesday. Prospects from the Bay Area or who attended school in the area are eligible to participate. Here is a list of the prospects in attendance: QB: Emory Jones – CincinnatiQB: Devin Leary – KentuckyRB Jackson Canaan – San Jose StateRB – LJ Johnson […]
I don’t know about you, but I sure am happy that Minor League Baseball is back. It’s probably easier to be excited about the Minors since the San Francisco Giants aren’t worth being excited about, but it’s also just great having so much baseball around, and optimism in the air. All four of the Giants […]
After a frustrating 6-5 overtime loss in Utah on Tuesday, the Oilers are right back in action on Wednesday in San Jose, looking to regroup on the second half of a back-to-back. They’ll be facing a Sharks team that has won five of its last six after a six-game losing streak in March. With Edmonton…
Can you remember a time when the San Francisco 49ers had an outcome that was a dream scenario for them? Has it been since 2007, when the team landed Patrick Willis and Joe Staley, but also added Ray McDonald and Dashon Goldson? We’re not far removed from 2019, when the Niners were gifted Nick Bosa, […]
The San Francisco Giants wrap up this series against the Philadelphia Phillies this afternoon from Oracle Park. Taking the mound for the Giants will be right-hander Tyler Mahle, who enters today’s game with a 7.00 ERA, 5.04 FIP, with nine strikeouts to three walks in nine innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ […]
After splitting the first two games of the three game series against the San Francisco Giants, on Wednesday afternoon, the Phillies will go for the rarest of feats: Winning a series in Oracle Park. Aaron Nola gets the ball for the Phillies, coming off of a strong start against the Rockies. He will be opposed […]
The San Francisco 49ers are just over two weeks away from the 2026 NFL Draft, where they hold the No. 27 overall pick. Heading into the draft, analysts have mocked a number of positions for the 49ers to target, including wide receiver, offensive line, and defensive line, which were some of the team’s biggest needs […]
Is Eli White okay? I haven’t seen anything indicating he is, but that makes this particular Braves arrangement a bit of a headscratcher: A lot of this is what we’ve seen be the Braves’ usual fare against lefties this season. But Mike Yastrzemski is hanging out there, left-on-left, in the seventh spot in the lineup. […]
Without question the bullpen is the true dark underbelly of the A’s 2026 roster. The offense sputtered out of the gate but is widely regarded by pundits as having a “top 5 in MLB” ceiling with scoring runs being among the team’s lesser concerns overall. The rotation is certainly questionable but outside of a shaky […]
On Tuesday night in San Francisco, the Phillies faced left-handed Giants’ starter Robbie Ray. The 34-year-old lefty entered the contest with two solid starts under his belt, a 5 1/3 inning performance against the Yankees in which he gave up two earned runs on five hits with four strikeouts in a 3-0 loss, and a […]
Draft day is very tricky. Players who were slam dunks for certain draft slots in the draft fall, teams reach for players who were considered available later, and there is always the crazy draft-day trade for extra picks or to move up. The San Francisco 49ers haven’t been shy about trading up or back under […]
We all have opinions about which positions the San Francisco 49ers should draft two weeks from now. Some believe specific prospects fit the best, while others will swear by certain players. Everybody has their draft crushes. Today, we’ll share those. To be clear, this does not mean the best players at their positions. For example, […]
On the one hand, the Edmonton Oilers got a point, showing some resilience despite being outshot and outchanced by the Utah Mammoth. On the other hand, the Oilers squandered three leads, struggled to break out of their zone, and seemed far too loose for a team readying itself for the playoffs. The game was a…
Let’s get to the main point here. Tuesday night’s loss to the Giants does not fall squarely on the shoulders of Otto Kemp. A lack of offense to go along with uncharacteristic poor pitching from Cristopher Sanchez and sketchy fielding in the fifth inning sealed the defeat. Without scoring runs, teams are going to have […]
Entering the season, the concern among Athletics’ fans and baseball experts was that the team had not done enough to improve their bullpen sans closer Mason Miller. Through ten games, that concern is fully warranted. It is likely that good players with a history of success did not want to sign with the A’s to […]
It took a while to overcome the cold, but the bats heated up in the eighth inning for the Yankees to manage the Athletics in the opener of their latest series. Amed Rosario was the clear MVP of the night, smashing a pair of home runs including the go-ahead three-run jack that won them the […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Earlier this week, the San Francisco Giants announced that they would be working with ElevenLabs, an AI research and product company, in an upcoming multi-year partnership at Oracle Park. ElevenLabs will become the presenting sponsor of Oracle Park’s Championship Suite. They will also “deploy AI voice and audio technology throughout the […]
There was definitely a chill in the air for last night’s Yankees comeback win over the A’s, as many fans caught on the broadcast were bundled up for the cold weather. Our own John Griffin was at the game and compared getting onto the 4 train after the final out to getting into a sauna. […]
49ers draft scenarios: How team can address needs with first three picks (paywall)“Fourth round, No. 127: DE/OLB Trey Moore, Texas. Moore’s lack of elite traits will likely make him a Day 3 pick. Still, his smarts, consistency and effort suggest he could be a worthy fourth-round choice. At minimum, he has the makings of a […]
On Monday, the San Francisco Giants lost to the Philadelphia Phillies 6-4, and I crafted an entire maybe-I’m-thinking-about-this-too-much narrative to go with it. In my recap, I mentioned the sloppiness and (in)attention to detail that has plagued the Giants through this cold, hard, long two-week season, and how they appeared to rid themselves of it […]
The struggle against left-handed starters continued for the Philadelphia Phillies (6-5) as they dropped the middle game of their series against the San Francisco Giants (4-8) on Tuesday night by a score of 6-0. Christopher Sanchez had a rough night, allowing 11 of the Giants’ 12 hits, the second highest total against him in his […]
After a short three-game home stand, the Athletics flew back across the country to begin a three-game series against the New York Yankees. While it is still very early in the season, how the A’s play over the next few days against the perennial postseason contender Yankees could predict how they will fare the rest […]
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Giants: Let’s talk about it.
The San Francisco Giants continue their series against the Philadelphia Phillies tonight from Oracle Park. Taking the mound for the Giants will be left-hander Robbie Ray, who enters tonight’s game with a 3.38 ERA, 4.39 FIP with 11 strikeouts to three walks in 10.2 innings pitched. His last start was in the Giants’ 7-2 win […]
