Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across Major League Baseball. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Yankees fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. In last week’s Reacts survey results, Peter noted that Yankees fans seemed pessimistic about the […]
The New York Yankees have completed their first road trip of the 2026 season, and while it’s definitely too early to take any bit of data too seriously, these six games leave us with some important takeaways. The most important one is reflected in the standings, as the Yanks boast the best record in the […]
Well, that series against the Yankees exposed some of the lingering issues with the Mariners roster, as currently constructed. Left-handed pitching is going to be a huge problem for this extremely lefty-heavy lineup throughout the season, and there really isn’t much relief in sight — J.P. Crawford is back from his brief IL stint but […]
Former NHL defenseman Ty Wishart calls in from an Australian beach to talk about his globe-spanning playing career and his 21 games with the Islanders in the eventful 2010-11 season. Drafted 16th overall by the Sharks and traded to Tampa Bay in the deal for Dan Boyle, Ty Wishart got a quick education in the […]
At the NFL League Meetings this week, Jets head coach Aaron Glenn made a prediction for which player is set to break out for the Jets in 2026. This made me wonder a bit about how good Taylor’s rookie year was. To be honest, I was a bit underwhelmed by Taylor’s performance. I didn’t see […]
A fifth-round pick putting up historic playoff numbers. A reclamation project finding his game at the right time. Two Rangers prospects to know heading into the OHL's second round.
Art Ditmar’s career sits in a space that baseball history does not always spotlight. He was not the headline name on the Yankees teams he played for, but he fits perfectly into the fabric of Yankees history because he was part of one of the most competitive and talent-filled eras the organization has ever seen. […]
A loss that was actually fine, a draft positioning update, and some real questions about J.T. Miller's leadership—on the same night he was given the Mr. Ranger Award.
Thursdays can obviously be light days on the major league schedule, but this one was a particularly short slate. As far as relevance to the Yankees goes, the Blue Jays were set to take on the White Sox in Chicago’s home opener, but it was pushed back due to inclement weather. So, American League action […]
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
Toledo Mud Hens 17, Syracuse Mets 7 (box) The Mud Hens crushed the 46th ranked prospect in the game, right-hander Jonah Tong, with a furious barrage on Thursday that knocked Tong out of the game in the second inning. They poured it on against the Mets bullpen, taking a 2-1 lead in the series. Max […]
Meet the Mets The Mets have now lost three in a row, as David Peterson simply didn’t have it in the team’s series opener in San Francisco last night. The Mets’ lineup continued to disappoint, too, in what wound up being a 7-2 loss. Choose your recap: Amazin’ Avenue, Newsday, New York Post The new […]
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (3-2) TOLEDO 17, SYRACUSE 7 (BOX) Well, Jonah Tong’s second Triple-A start didn’t go as well as his first. The 22-year-old didn’t make it out of the second inning as he surrendered seven runs, four of them earned. The Syracuse bullpen didn’t fare any better than that the rest of the way, […]
After a rollicking start to the year on the west coast, the Yankees head back home to host the Marlins for a three-game set in the Bronx. The team’s starting rotation has been particularly dominant, holding the Giants and Mariners to just two runs in 34 innings as they helped lead New York to a […]

New Jersey Devils defenseman Dougie Hamilton will undoubtedly be a trade candidate to watch this offseason. It is no secret that Hamilton wants a change of scenery, while the Devils have tried to move him. Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Hamilton during the offseason. San Jose Sharks The Sharks tried to acquire Hamilton last offseason, but the right-shot defenseman blocked a trade to San Jose. However, with the Sharks taking such a notable step...
If the regular season ended this morning, the New York Islanders would qualify for the playoffs by virtue of having more points, thanks to having played one more game, than Detroit, Columbus, or Philadelphia. Tonight that will not change but it can get either better or more fragile as they host the Flyers, who desperately […]

The Yankees are taking the field in Yankee Stadium for the first time this year today, and they’ll do so with a strong 5-1 record to their name after excelling on their opening road trip. The Miami Marlins are the first team they’ll welcome to the Bronx, and while their record is an identical 5-1, […]
New York Post | Dan Martin: The Yankees created several questions with their offseason strategy to run it back with largely the same roster as last year, and their dominant first week of games has begun the process of moving the conversation away from those concerns. There were questions over how Ben Rice would hold […]
The Mets came into their series against the Giants already scuffling a bit. They had just lost two straight games to the Cardinals, sitting at an even 3-3 record six games into the season. David Peterson was coming off a solid first start of the season against the Pirates, facing off against former Cy Young […]
Look at the Devils delivering maximum damage to a pair of Metropolitan Division rivals this week, although in very different ways. First, on Tuesday, they rolled over and played dead for a hapless Rangers team that got two points that won’t help them in their race to the bottom for Gavin McKenna. Forty-eight hours later […]
First period
It’s really nice to see how aggressively the defencemen attack opponents in the neutral zone. That was the whole point of having a mobile defence, and they’re finally beginning to make use of it.
Jacob Fowler missed the linesman arm going up for an icing and came out to play the puck … right to the stick of a Rangers forward. There are still some things for him to work on.
Juraj Slafkovský escapes his battle in the corner with the puck, but caught Vladislav Gavrik...
The Rangers late season win streak stops at three as Montreal inches closer to securing a playoff spot.
