Latest blog entries from Philadelphia teams across every league
The Cubs’ 10-4 win over the Phillies Tuesday evening in Philadelphia is, I think, the sort of game this team can begin to produce more often. Solid starting pitching. (Well, Colin Rea was essentially the starter after Riley Martin opened.) Six different Cubs had at least two hits. Overall: 15 hits, six walks, two doubles […]
The Flyers ended a full-season six-year playoff drought and will play in the playoffs for the first time since 2018, where they lost to the Penguins in the first round. Simply getting back to the postseason is quite the accomplishment based on the past month when Philadelphia was sitting in sixth place in the division […]
With the Battle of Pennsylvania poised to resume in the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time in nearly a decade, what better time than now to take a trip down memory lane and revisit some of the highs and lows from when the Penguins and Flyers have squared off against one another in the […]
Interesting decision last night by the official scorer when he assigned an error to Bryson Stott instead of Tim Mayza in the sixth inning. A low throw by Mayza was probably supposed to be caught by Stott, which is likely why they charged it to Stott in the first place, but that felt a little […]
*The Flyers iced 2/3 of an AHL lineup last night and took it right to the Montreal Canadiens, who had reason to play hard for those two points. The kids are good, folks! We might have something brewing here! RECAP ! *Lineup was pretty fun last night though, huh? Nice to see some kids get a little time in the spotlight to close things out. [ BSH ] *It was also Team Awards day yesterday, and most of the winners will come as no surprise to you, dear reader. [ BSH ] *Never forget th...
As the Eagles prepare for the NFL Draft, general manager Howie Roseman spoke to reporters about their approach to roster building on Tuesday. Among the many questions asked during the 27 minute press conference was one about their starting quarterback. Specifically, Roseman was asked about the recent report out of ESPN suggesting this is a […]
A night after the Phillies’ hitters had their way with the Cubs’ pitching staff, the Cubs returned the favor on Tuesday. Phillies pitchers couldn’t keep the Cubs off the bases, giving up 15 hits, six walks, and one hit batter. And once those runners got on board, the Phillies didn’t do much to stop them […]
Not many regulars? No problem. The Flyers bevy of rookies and young stars led by Matvei Michkov, Porter Martone and Oliver Bonk defeated the Montreal Canadiens 4-2 on Tuesday night. The basics First period: 8:08 – Porter Martone (Matvei Michkov, Oliver Bonk), 14:42- Oliver Bonk (Matvei Michkov, Hunter McDonald) Second period: 6:50 – Brendan Gallagher (Kaiden Guhle, Alexandre Texier), 13:52 – Matvei Michkov (Unassisted), 19:49 – Jake Evans (Arber Xhekaj, Joe Veleno) Third period: 12:0...
First period AHL opponent or not, the top line comes out in playoff mode with a high-danger chance in the opening 10 seconds, and Cole Caufield draws a high-sticking call to head to the power play. It’s a short first wave with the top line having the shift to start, but the second unit looks dangerous as well. There’s been little to complain about on the power play the past few games. Matvei Michkov gets a breakaway, but Jakub Dobeš makes the leg save on his deke. Nick Su...
Go get ‘em, Riley.

LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers on Tuesday made a trade with the Philadelphia Phillies, getting minor league right-hander Griff McGarry in exchange for international bonus pool space. The Phillies announced the trade as them also receiving a player to be named later or cash considerations in the deal. McGarry was a Rule 5 draft pick […]

It’s NFL Draft Season! Before you read, some important context… I’ve ranked these players based on the Eagles’ needs and scheme fit. So while I may rate player ‘X’ higher than player ‘Y’ on pure talent, ‘Y’ could rank higher here due to fit or need. Focus more on tiers than exact order. Players in […]
The Cubs are loading up on left-handers as they play the Phillies the next two days — and then four times next week at Wrigley Field: You all know about Luke Little. Throws hard, but often does not know where the ball is going. In 35.1 MLB innings over the last three years, Little has […]
A sentiment I’ve seen expressed towards Philadelphia’s participation in the NBA Play-In Tournament, both in person and online, is apathy. The line of thinking goes that the Sixers aren’t at all likely to win the title this year, so why worry if the season ends this week or if it is prolonged until after a […]
The Philadelphia Flyers handed out their year-end team awards on Tuesday prior to their season finale against Montreal. And while there were a few winners who previously walked away with some hardware, there were also a few newcomers who were lauded for their respective 2025-26 seasons. Our MVP all season long: Dan Vladar. 😤 pic.twitter.com/1TLKdsXhdg — x – Philadelphia Flyers (@NHLFlyers) April 14, 2026 While the Flyers had some key personnel all season, none were more vital t...
Less than 10 days until the start of the 2026 NFL Draft and Eagles GM Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni sat down with reporters to talk about their plan for building the roster through the draft and other free agency moves. The GM and head coach spoke about the team’s newest WR addition, […]
When Dan Vladar signed his two-year, $6.7 million contract with the Flyers last July 1, the idea was Philadelphia at least might have somebody who could compete with Sam Ersson for the starter’s role. At worst, he would be a far more capable backup for Ersson compared to what Ivan Fedotov and Aleksei Kolosov were in 2024-25. The bar was incredibly low. Vladar couldn’t hurt, right? Well, 81 games later, and with a meaningless game (in the best way possible) to close out the season tonight ...

The Philadelphia Flyers have already clinched the playoffs in dramatic fashion with a shootout win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Monday night. So, with their season finale happening just 24 hours later, they have decided to rest a lot of key players and bring up some prospects from the AHL for what is a meaningless game when it comes to standings and making the playoffs. Since, you know, the Flyers are making the playoffs. Flyers recall several prospects to give key players a rest ...
