There are still four months to go in the season, so trying to break down an end-of-year award at this early point may be a bit of a fools’ errand. And yet, here I go. This year’s NL Cy Young race is shaping up to be one of the most dynamic and competitive in the […]
MLB’s prospect coverage site, Pipeline, released a new mock draft for the 2026 MLB Draft last night. In that mock draft they had the Atlanta Braves selecting two players whose names have been prominently discussed in and around the Top 10 prospects in the draft class dating back to last winter. With the first pick, […]

Throughout his career as a head coach, Will Wade has always had a big personality, been very vocal during games, and made some moves that have gotten LSU into trouble. Wade is an excellent coach, but those things have caused a bit of a mark on any praise he would get. Still, LSU and fans […]
Just like last year, the Tar Heels are two wins away from a trip to Omaha. Just like last year, the team they are facing is not the team people thought they would be facing. Hopefully this year is not like last year. In an NCAA Tournament that has seen a boat load of upsets […]
The Twins optioned infielder Royce Lewis to Triple-A a couple of weeks ago. Since then, he has hit eight home runs and slashed .367/.446/.939. He has also started expanding his defensive versatility. He played first base yesterday and was at second base the day before. Late last month, it was fair to wonder if Lewis’s […]
Aaron Judge won't be taking any at-bats any time soon, and that's not a problem the New York Yankees can simply hope to sidestep.
In light of Aaron Judge’s stress fracture in his right rib, the Yankees will be without their captain and three-time AL MVP for at least four-to-six weeks. It will probably be longer than that. So, with Giancarlo Stanton and Jasson Domínguez still not ready to return from their respective injuries, the organization decided to call […]

About this time last year I made the case for Julio Rodríguez as an All-Star. It was a pointed response to the discourse of the day: his latest slow start at the dish. I didn’t think it was a fair (or even accurate) characterization of his season to that point. At the time, Julio was […]
Veteran catcher Elias Díaz rejected an outright assignment from the Royals in favor of free agency, as reflected on the transaction log at MiLB.com. Players with more than three years of service (or a prior outright in their career) can reject outrights and instead elect free agency. Díaz has more than nine years of major […]
Before making a franchise-altering trade involving a superstar talent by dealing Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams, Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry sought the input of people in other sports who have been in his shoes.

Plenty of homers but not enough wins as both the Tower Buzzers and Loons got beaten at home. Player of the day For the first time this year, Zach Ehrhard recorded at least three runs and just as many RBI, courtesy of a couple of home runs that helped the Comets earn their 34th win […]
The New York Mets (27-35) say goodbye to the West Coast time zone with one final three-game set in California, this time against the San Diego Padres (32-29).

The top of the 2026 draft board is shifting—and the Rangers could be the biggest beneficiaries. Here's how five picks could break perfectly for New York.
The Yankees managed to salvage a win and avoid a sweep by the Guardians at Yankee Stadium on the back of strong solid pitching from Carlos Rodón, shutdown bullpen work, and some clutch hitting by Ryan McMahon. With the win, the Yankees climb to within a half-game of the Rays, who had the day off. […]
Over the past week, the San Diego Padres lost five of the six games played. The Philadelphia Phillies just swept the season series 6-0, while the Padres have only won four of their last 15 games; losing five in a row. Some of those losses were by one run, but a loss is a loss. […]

Another good night for Clearwater was the only saving grace among the Phillies system last night, as the Threshers were the only one of the Phillies’ affiliates to win their game. Even still, there were some standout performances in those other losses. Rochester 7, Lehigh Valley 1 The Iron Pigs managed just one run on […]
