Go Rays!
The Royals announced they have officially called up Luinder Avila to start tonight’s game against the Brewers, and have placed left-hander Bailey Falter on the 15-day Injured List with left elbow inflammation retroactive to yesterday. Falter faced six hitters on Wednesday night against the Twins and gave up three hits and two walks. Michael Wacha […]
For the first time in 2026, the Orioles head out on the road, but they don’t have to go too far. They will begin the six-game trip with a weekend in Pittsburgh. Thankfully, we won’t be seeing Paul Skenes since he just started on Wednesday. However, we will get the privilege of watching Konnor Griffin, […]

During the third inning of the home opener, the broadcast made the odd move to cut to the pregame/postgame crew instead of commercial. Scott Podsednik was on hand to make a mystery announcement: The White Sox are retiring Ozzie Guillén’s No. 13. Ozzie, sitting right next to Podsednik on the broadcast, interrupted Scott’s reading to […]
The first road trip is here, and the Phillies are starting out at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado. The starting pitching matchup is a reunion for Team Italy’s WBC rotation – Aaron Nola for the Phillies and Michael Lorenzen for the Rockies. Both are looking for their first win of the season. Here are the […]

The Rockies had an off-day on Thursday after capturing their first series win of the season on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays in a thrilling extra-innings victory. It has been an exciting opening week, filled with competitive games and intriguing storylines. Last year, the Colorado Rockies came into their home opener at 1-5 with a -15 run differential. This year, they […]

It’s fairly well-accepted that assigning wins and losses are a flawed metric. As we say earlier in the week, pitchers like Tarik Skubal can have an excellent game, but still get tagged with the L through no fault of their own, simply because the offense has a bad day. Worse, relief pitchers can vulture wins […]
Folks, I’m gonna say it. Seven games into the 2026 season, the vibes around the Atlanta Braves are getting dangerously high. Maybe it’s just PTSD from the marathon of pain that was the 2025 season, but Thursday night’s 17-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks was some serious catharsis — and whiplash from the strong pitching […]
The power bats showed out Thursday in a 14-8 pummeling that was actually a relatively close game for a while. Today, due to weather concerns Saturday, we’re playing two. Here’s Barczi Rescue with his third donger of the game, for instance: On the Mound Friday @ 2:00pm on SECN+ Vanderbilt #88 Fr. RHP Wyatt “Ice […]
Just in case… here’s the Cleveland-area weather radar. There’s a chance of storms there late this afternoon. Friday notes… Cubs lineup: Guardians lineup: Cade Horton, RHP vs. Joey Cantillo, LHP Cade Horton picked up where he left off in 2025 with his first 2026 start, a solid outing against the Nationals last Saturday. Last year […]
The numbers, they are ugly. Yep, it’s fair to say that, one week into the 2026 season, the “run-it-back gang” is misfiring on all cylinders. It has been frustrating to watch. As a team, the Phils are batting .220 with a .314 on-base percentage and a .360 slugging percentage. Those numbers are… not great. Turner’s […]
The Brewers play in the smallest metropolitan market in baseball, and yet have developed a sustainable model of success that is the envy of other teams. They have reached the playoffs in seven of the last eight years, and haven’t had a losing season since 2016. This year, the Brewers are off to a great […]
Guardians 4, Cubs 1: Cade Horton injured and Cubs lose. How was your Friday? Cubs vs. Guardians, Friday 4/3, 3:10 CT live! Chicago Cubs vs. Cleveland Guardians preview, Friday 4/3, 3:10 CT
The Philadelphia Flyers are making a playoff push that everyone is on board with — well, at this point they are. They’ve been too good to wish for losses to improve the draft pick by a significant amount, so they might as well try to win and get a possibly brief playoff appearance that would give one of the youngest teams in the NHL a beneficial experience. But, with the 4-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings on Friday night they are now in a place where Saturday night while hosting the New Yo...
The Jays start their first road trip with an afternoon game in Chicago. And we can see our old friend, Seranthony Dominguez. By we, I mean you. I’m in Maizuru, Japan today, if all goes the way it is supposed to. I very much enjoyed Chicago when I was there a few years ago. I […]
It’s been more than a year since we’ve seen live baseball on the South Side, and after a one-day Mother Nature day, there will be baseball. Unfortunately, the baseball being played will involved the lackadaisical, 1-5 White Sox hosting the defending AL champion Blue Jays. And look no further than today’s starter for Toronto to […]
College baseball has a 56 game regular season for everyone and the Big Ten recently expanded its conference slate from 24 to 30 games with 10 three-game series for each of the 17 baseball playing schools. With Illinois coming to Alexander Field this weekend it marks roughly the halfway point for the 2026 season, and […]
Well that’s one way to kick off a postseason run. The #2 LSU gymnastics team broke program and NCAA records Thursday night and advanced to the Baton Rouge Regional final. The Tigers set an NCAA record for highest score in a regional semifinal and a program record for highest score in a postseason meet with […]

Well, I lied to you. I hope you’ll forgive me. In yesterday’s roundup, I said that Thursday would finally bring the return of multiple-game days days for the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates. Turns out I was wrong, as AAA Sacramento had their game rained out and postponed. Actually, it apparently stopped raining, […]
