A spot that doesn’t have to be filled with cash or FA gambles. That is if he can stay healthy. He ...

We’re just going to pretend like that one never happened, right? The Sox held the Astros scoreless in seven of the nine innings they played yesterday, and allowed just one in one of the others. We can leave it at that, I think. At the very least, the Sox have the advantage of sending their […]

Sometimes the toughest conversations are the ones worth having. As much as Astros fans would rather focus on another postseason run, the reality is that Dana Brown and the front office have to think beyond this season. Every decision they make isn’t just about winning in 2026, it’s about positioning the organization to remain a […]
Through five innings, the White Sox had everything going for them: Davis Martin with a 5-0 lead and a reasonable amount of pitches, and the Astros warming up a fourth pitcher after Spencer Arrighetti left with a foot nerve issue after one ineffective inning.
The next time they came to the plate, they somehow trailed by three.

The New York Mets are sellers, and Clay Holmes has become one of the most intriguing arms on the market. Per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, while the possibility remains that the Mets and Holmes agree to an extension, there is a significantly greater likelihood of a trade, according to people familiar with the situation. That is despite Holmes telling The Athletic's Will Sammon and Tim Britton that he is "definitely open" to staying in New York. At 43-60 and 9.5 games out of a Wild Card spot, ...
