Latest blog entries from Bay Area teams across every league
Many fans have been wondering when the San Francisco 49ers will see what they have in rookie third-round pick Nick Martin. After all, this is a defense that has struggled mightily since Fred Warner dislocated his ankle a month ago. For much of the season, Martin was a healthy scratch. Martin’s season debut came in […]
The Athletics Nation Season In Review series continues this morning with a pitcher that made just four relief appearances for the A’s. Though maybe they should have kept him around longer after he switched teams midseason. He really seemed to run away with his chance at starting, something that the A’s could have used more […]
Today is nomination day! After voting in today’s CPL, head to the comment section to nominate a new batch of prospects for Friday’s CPL. The 2026 Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List keeps chugging along, as we seek to rank the top 44 prospects in the San Francisco Giants organization. And the latest chapter brings […]
The Arizona Cardinals won’t have their top wide receiver, Marvin Harrison Jr., in Week 11. The second-year pro had surgery for appendicitis, which will keep him out of a home game against the San Francisco 49ers this week. Harrison Jr. is second on the Cardinals in targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns, behind tight end Trey […]
The 49ers’ decision not to make a swing for a pass rusher on trade deadline day last week raised some eyebrows, with San Francisco unwilling to pay a premium to boost a defensive line clearly in desperate need of help. Last Sunday’s 42-26 defeat to the Los Angeles Rams served as an illustration of why, […]
Not all of the wins for the San Jose Sharks this season are going to be pretty, and the 2-1 overtime win against the Minnesota Wild last night certainly counts as one of the ugly ones. The Wild absolutely dominated the Sharks for most of the game and it was only by sheer luck and strong goaltending by Yaroslav Askarov that the Sharks were capable of competing in the last 10 minutes of the third period. Looking at Natural Stat Trick’s game flow chart in all situations, you can see that the Wild...
Morning, all! Bruce Bochy is grateful for his time in Texas but is happy to be returning to a role in San Francisco. Most of the sports talk this morning is about the departure of Nico Harrison and the mess his successor will be inheriting. Kevin Sherrington pens a breakup postmortem and notes that there […]
Good morning A’s fans! Award season continued last night as the Managers of the Year were announced in both leagues. In the National League the winner was the Milwaukee Brewers’ skipper Pat Murphy, who guided the Brew Crew to the #1 seed in the National League with a 97-65 record. He also guided them to […]
That's Wild Macklin Celebrini and his band of San Jose Sharks came to town and just made the Minnesota Wild look a little silly. Despite outshooting them by a substantial margin and having chances that they never really connected on, the Sharks walked over the Wild to earn a 2-1 overtime win...
It’s usually doom and gloom after a loss. The finger-pointing among fans is non-stop, the playoffs shouldn’t be discussed, and somebody needs to be fired. Heading into Week 11, the San Francisco 49ers are on the outside looking in of the NFC playoff picture and sit third in the NFC West standings. Let’s ignore the […]
Braves Franchise History 1923 – The Boston Braves acquire outfielders Casey Stengel and Bill Cunningham as well as shortstop Dave Bancroft from the New York Giants in exchange for pitchers Joe Oeschger and Bill Southworth. 2015 – The Braves trade shortstop Andrelton Simmons and catcher Jose Briceno to the Angels in exchange for shortstop Erick […]
After it seemed like Victor Wembanyama had come back to earth, the Alien ascended back to Mars with a clutch performance in a win over the Chicago Bulls on Monday. The San Antonio Spurs will need him to continue playing amongst the stars in a tough matchup with the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday. The […]
After a few days of rest, the San Jose Sharks are back in action and on the road, making the first stop on a three-game road trip. The Sharks pay a visit to the Minnesota Wild at the Grand Casino Arena in St. Paul. The Sharks are getting some much-needed reinforcements in the form of William Eklund. Eklund has not played since Nov. 1 because of a lower-body injury, but he’s healthy and ready to go. The forward will be back on the second line with Alex Wennberg and Philipp Kurashev. Forward Eth...

The San Francisco 49ers have been without starting quarterback Brock Purdy since Week 4, when he re-aggravated a toe injury sustained in the Week 1 win over the Seattle Seahawks. In his place, backup Mac Jones has impressed, going 5-3 as the starter, while throwing for 2,151 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions. Jones, who […]
The San Francisco 49ers struggled in a 42-26 loss to the Los Angeles Rams over the weekend, getting blown out as they got off to a slow start and just couldn’t manufacture enough stops in the defeat. It was a demoralizing game, as the 49ers had a prime opportunity to get a step in the […]
Tonight, the Western Conference spotlight shines brightly on the Paycom Center as the Oklahoma City Thunder (10-1) host the Golden State Warriors (6-5) in a high-stakes battle. The Warriors vs Thunder matchup is particularly compelling, as Golden State’s superstar Stephen Curry is expected to return from injury to challenge the league-leading Thunder, who boast the NBA’s best record behind MVP candidate Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. While OKC is a heavy favorite, Curry’s return introduces significa...
The Royals announced they have acquired pitcher Mason Black from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for pitcher Logan Martin. Black is a 25-year-old right-hander who has made ten appearances for the Giants over the last two seasons with a 6.47 ERA in 40.1 innings. He was designated for assignment by the Giants last week. […]
We’ve tracked these playoff pictures weekly to show how fickle these playoff races get. A couple of games ago, the San Francisco 49ers were sitting pretty in the No. 2 seed. Today, they are on the outside looking in of the NFC playoff picture. NFC Standings Contenders 1) Philadelphia Eagles 7-2 (6-1 in the conference)2) […]
Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Rams wasn’t completely unexpected for the San Francisco 49ers, but man, was it deflating at times, given the lack of resistance from the defense. The 49ers’ defense actually generated one more pressure than the 15 against the Giants, but the back seven had a tough time holding up in […]
Next up in our Season in Review series is another player that got plenty of playing time in Triple-A Las Vegas before his first promotion to the big leagues. While he’d ultimately end the year with another organization, outfielder Drew Avans will always remember his time with the A’s, where he made his big league […]
After knocking off arch-nemesis, San Francisco 49ers, the now 7-2 Los Angeles Rams are rewarded with another NFC West face off. This coming Sunday, it’s the 7-2 Seattle Seahawks coming to SoFi Stadium for a battle culminating in league supremacy. Two weeks ago, during the bye week, I wrote about the Rams offense through the […]
The zig-zagging continued this past week for the San Francisco 49ers, who have not won consecutive games since Weeks 2 and 3. That’s somewhat to be expected when you have a backup quarterback, are without your WR1 and TE1 for a good chunk, if not all of those games, and no longer have your two […]
Wideout Michael Wilson faces a matchup against the 22nd-ranked passing defense in the league (228.8 yards allowed per game) in Week 11, when his Arizona Cardinals play the San Francisco 49ers, Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET. When setting your fantasy football lineup this week, is Wilson worth inserting into your starting lineup? For analysis on his tilt versus the 49ers, we’ve got you covered.

The San Francisco 49ers’ undefeated streak against the NFC West came to a crashing halt on Sunday after a blowout 42-26 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. San Francisco made the mistake of falling behind the Rams by 21 points before getting on the board, and while they came close to catching Los Angeles, the […]
