Report: Phillies interested in Bo Bichette

Well now, this type of rumor might change things for the Phillies: This is a fascinating rumor for a few reasons.

Oilers had horrible start against the Flyers, four bad games since the break, and the kid line conundrum

Denver Barkey scores first career goal to open scoring in Edmonton

Denver Barkey is on the board. The Philadelphia Flyers rookie has provided some energy and solid two-way play in his short time in the NHL, but he only had two assists — both recorded in his debut at Madison Square Garden — to show for it.

The 20-year-old winger started the breakout in his own end and dashed down the c...

Did the Phillies miss out on Tatsuya Imai?

In something of a surprise move, the Astros added Tatsuya Imai to their rotation on a three year deal that includes a lot of opt-outs. A lot of these incentives are interesting in that they kind of indicate that maybe a lot of teams aren’t really sure he’ll translate to being a starter in MLB. […]
