Latest blog entries from Phoenix teams across every league
For the past two weeks, it has been rumored that Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys has his sights on either RB Jeremyiah Love out of Notre Dame, or EDGE rusher David Bailey of Texas Tech, a local kid. And so, here at Revenge of the Birds, we took that thought and made an article […]
You never know what you’re going to see when you go to a ballgame, both good and bad. Sometimes both in the same night. One of the greatest individual pitching performances in program history ended up being for naught in Arizona’s 11-1, 8-inning loss to Kansas State on Saturday night at Hi Corbett Field. Smith […]
Another Saturday game, another Zac Gallen start, another swirling bit of anxiety in the gullet as we waited to see which Zac we were going to get today. I remember the heyday of Gallen’s good times, when he really was the unquestioned ace of the rotation, rather than simply being the guy who happens to […]
Game two of three with the Diamondbacks. I was looking at ‘attractions in Phoenix’. Camelback Mountain, which does look nice for hike (for other people, not for me, I’ve hiked enough to know I don’t enjoy it, and adding climbing doesn’t enhance the appeal). It is one of the “New 7 Wonders of Nature”. There […]
The Miami Heat entered Friday with the possibility of moving up to No. 12 in odds for the 2026 NBA Draft lottery. But that open door has now been slammed shut. As a result of the Phoenix Suns’ 111-96 win over the Golden State Warriors, the Heat officially own the 13th-best lottery odds ahead of […] The post Heat will have 13th best lottery odds ahead of 2026 NBA Draft appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
What is the status of the Arizona Cardinals’ safety room? Budda Baker is one of the league’s best. His partner in crime was Jalen Thompson, who played well but was on the free agent list and found a new home very quickly. So far in free agency, the franchise inked Andrew Wingard from the Philadelphia […]
Weekend Link Dump CNN talks about the wild week that was in the stock market How are Native Americans responding to the new Washington Commanders logo? Because the Cardinals are a mess, of course Jacoby Brissett is looking for a massive pay raise I haven’t read this, but it’s probably a good read if you’re […]
Arizona baseball had won five of its last seven games, which included three road wins, entering Friday evening’s matchup with Kansas State. In the first game of the series, Arizona (14-23, 5-11 Big 12) battled in a low-scoring affair but fell short in a 2-1 loss to Kansas State (24-12, 8-8 Big 12). The Wildcats […]
Game Summary After a long and successful road trip, the Diamondbacks kicked off this six game homestand with a nearly drama-free victory over the defending AL Champs. It felt like a downright walk in the park to have a 3-run lead going into the 9th inning. What sorcery is this?! The Snakes didn’t play mistake-free […]
The Jays are in beautiful, downtown Phoenix, Arizona (well, I don’t know if it is beautiful or not), for three games against the Diamondbacks. Yet another park with a retractable roof. I remember how strange it was when the Jays had the retractable roof, all those years ago. They had real grass in Phoenix until […]
Today’s Lineups BLUE JAYS DIAMONDBACKS Davis Schneider – LF Ketel Marte – 2B Daulton Varsho – CF Corbin Carroll – RF Vladimir Guerrero – 1B Geraldo Perdomo – SS Jesus Sanchez – RF Jose Fernandez – DH Lenyn Sosa – DH Nolan Arenado – 3B Andres Gimenez – SS Ildemaro Vargas – 1B Kazuma Okamoto […]
The NBA Play-In Tournament concludes tonight with two exciting matchups! Thankfully, the Portland Trail Blazers don’t have to compete in either of them. After beating the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, they’re waiting for Game 1 of the NBA Playoffs on Sunday. But we’re still tossing up a GameDay Discussion Thread for any fans who want […]
The Diamondbacks come into this series as one of the hottest teams in baseball. They’ve won seven out of their last ten, have only lost one series this season. They’re on fire. Unfortunately, they are exactly the third hottest team in baseball. The other two are directly in front of them in the NL West […]
The Arizona Cardinals offseason is going swimmingly, in the sense that they are drowning. After moving on from the head coach, quarterback, but somehow retaining the GM and defensive coordinator, they also seemingly were going to stay with the quarterback who led them to that 1-11 finish after the starter was “lost to injury”. Well, […]
Diamondbacks News (SI.com) Diamondbacks Trade Hard-Throwing Reliever to Brewers Fernandez was signed by the D-backs to a minor league contract and given an invite to spring training. At the time he was part of an effort by the team to bring in a number of “high-octane” arms, hoping to find a Diamondback in the rough. (Yahoo! Sports) […]
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones always seems focused on his legacy. Certainly, one part is the fact that the ‘Boys won three Super Bowls during the heyday of Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin, and Troy Aikman. But those titles were when? The final one was Super Bowl XXX, played on January 28, 1996, at the conclusion […]
Introduction Believe it or not, but we are a little over 10% of the way through the baseball season with most of the teams having played 18 or 19 games so far. That’s not enough time or opportunities to make any kind of definitive statements about any player or team, but it does feel like […]
Sometimes you need a clickbaity title for fun, and sometimes the extreme title is actually justified. This might be one of those times. In the early going, there aren’t a tremendous amount of statistics that mean much of anything, or at least that mean enough to re-evaluate what we think about a player. As an […]
The 2026 NFL Draft is now only about a week away. There’s been a lot of speculation and rumors the Dallas Cowboys are a team to watch in regards to trading into the Top 10 with either the Arizona Cardinals (3), Cleveland Browns (6), and the Kansas City Chiefs (9). And, true or not, it’s […]
The Arizona Cardinals have done the expected, picked up the fifth-year option on their left tackle, Paris Johnson Jr. From Mike Garafolo: PJJ has been the one staple along with Hjalte Froholdt along the offensive line since the beginning of the Monti Ossenfort era, the issue for Paris has not been his play, but instead […]
The Diamondbacks may have got Merrill Kelly back while in Baltimore. But Arizona still currently have a full dozen players on the injured list. They are evenly split between hitters and pitchers, but two-third of them are on the extended 60-day injured list. With an off-day today, I thought it was a good opportunity to […]
Even though Robert Spillane and Christian Elliss are set to return as the top two options, the New England Patriots are in the process of rebuilding their linebacker room. The depth behind them, after all, has seen some significant turnover this offseason Jack Gibbens, last year’s No. 3, signed with the Cardinals in free agency. […]
Last month during a pregame ceremony, Tony Pluta was inducted into the Legends Plaza Wall of Fame located inside Hi Corbett Field. The placard that went up lists 2023-25, the seasons Pluta has played for Arizona. But if things go as hoped, that banner will need to get updated. Pluta confirmed Wednesday he plans to […]
The Portland Trail Blazers’ 114-110 win over the Phoenix Suns in the NBA Play-In Tournament on Tuesday was a high-octane thriller that left players and fans of both teams upset about officiating. Through the TV screen, one could hear Blazers All-Star Deni Avdija furiously screaming at the baseline official about an and-1 call he wanted […]
You do not have to be a savvy baseball mind to look at a major league outfield consisting of Weston Wilson, Blaze Alexander, and Johnathan Rodríguez and wonder if there has been some mistake. The Orioles didn’t actually seriously think that was going to work out well when Wednesday’s starting lineup was submitted, did they? […]
