After last night’s improbable comeback-within-a-comeback-within-a-comeback-within-a-comeback, there was reason to believe the Twins could do it again after erasing an early 4-0 deficit. The Cardinals, who scored two in the first on an Ivan Herrera homer, and another two in the second on RBIs from Pedro Pages and Masyn Winn, seemed intent on scheduling Connor Prielipp […]
Minnesota Vikings receiver Dillon Bell reportedly mixed in with the first team during this week's minicamp.
The Minnesota Timberwolves are in an unfamiliar position: they’ve gone from plucky upstart to legitimate title contender, powered by Anthony Edwards’ leap into superstardom and an elite, suffocating defense. As trade rumors swirl around Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future, the Wolves have surfaced as a dark-horse threat, with one reported sticking point, their reluctance to include Jaden […]

Kawhi Leonard's name has come up in Timberwolves trade rumors.

As has been the case during every homestand this season, Minnesota Twins GM Jeremy Zoll met with reporters before Friday night’s impeccable 9-8 comeback win over the St. Louis Cardinals to provide injury updates on 40-man players and top prospects. Walker Jenkins was the biggest name he provided an update on.
Surprises can always happen, but at this juncture, it's hard to pinpoint the star that the Timberwolves will trade for.
Trading for Anthony Davis seems like the ultimate risk, and he's not reliable enough for the Timberwolves to weaken their depth to add him.
Strider's injury amplifies the need for Atlanta to acquire a starting pitcher at the trade deadline.

In his first year with the Minnesota Vikings, Kyler Murray is on the verge of entering the top 10 on the NFL's all-time list of rushing yards by a QB.
Dylan Larkin will be on the move this summer, and if the Los Angeles Kings had it their way, he'll become the perfect replacement for Anze Kopitar. Larkin's fed up with Steve Yzerman and the Detroit Red Wings management group, and has decided to ask out. Early on, teams were announced as preferred destinations, and they include the Dallas Stars, Minnesota Wild, Florida Panthers, and Tampa Bay Lightning. The Kings are on the 'second tier' list of teams that could convince Larkin to open up his ...
For one ranker, the Minnesota Vikings' wide receiver group has gotten an obvious boost from the move to sign Jauan Jennings.
For most NBA teams, a uniform unveiling is a relatively simple affair. The team releases a few photos. Social media argues for 48 hours. Some people love them. Some people hate them. A few months later everyone has moved on and the jerseys just become part of the routine. For the Minnesota Timberwolves, this past […]
Drafting Rob Dillingham proved to be a mistake, but the Timberwolves could take a familiar risk in this year's draft -- this time it might work out, though.
The Philadelphia Phillies have been named Byron Buxton's best trade destination ahead of the August 3 deadline.
Buxton is hitting .259 with 20 home runs, an .888 OPS, and gold glove-caliber center field defense in 2026.
The Phillies are 27-27, struggling to climb back above .500 after a brutal start, and desperately short of right-handed power in their outfield following the Adolis Garcia disappointment.
He would slot directly into the cleanup spot or third in their order, become the eve...
I feel like the last thing anyone wants to hear about is some sportswriter’s fantasy team, but let me start this by sharing a bit about my longtime league with friends from college. (I promise this comes around to the Minnesota Vikings in short order.) We’ve been doing this league for almost 10 years now, and about three years in we decided to spice things up by making it a dynasty league.
The Minnesota Wild’s need for a legitimate top-six center has been one of the organization’s most persistent issues. If the trade market fails to produce a solution, the team should strongly consider pivoting in free agency, specifically toward New York Islanders captain Anders Lee.
While Lee...
As Minnesota Timberwolves fans watched the New York Knicks take a 3-1 lead over the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals with an unbelievable 107-106 win, many felt a sense of pride for a certain player they have been connected to for over a decade. A player whom those fans had seen endure so much tragedy, so many deflating losses, and frequent damaging narratives.
Former Minnesota Vikings fourth-round pick James Lynch seems to be facing an uphill battle to earn a roster spot with the Chicago Bears this year.
The Minnesota Twins/Washington Senators franchise has certainly seen its share of prodigious hitters in its history. Names like Rod Carew, Harmon Killebrew, Sam Rice, and Joe Judge dot the team’s record book. The franchise was born as the Washington Senators in 1901, making them one of the oldest major league teams still in existence. Although […]

On a drizzly night, the Twins managed (somehow) to win a battle of bumpy bullpens. (In bWAR for relievers, the Cards’ pitchers are ninth in MLB; the Twins’ are 29th.) Inning-by-inning notes: 1: Cards 1B Alec Burleson has a home run in each of his last three games; make it four. Heckuva hot streak. If […]
Friday night’s game in Minnesota was a turning point of sorts for the St. Louis Cardinals after several roster moves one of which was the debut of Blaze Jordan. He contributed along with a bomb from Alec Burleson, but the St. Louis Cardinals bullpen would blow a lead late as the Minnesota Twins beat the […]
