To be honest, I had not been paying particular attention to the “OMG! ALEX BREGMAN TO THE D-BACKS!!!” reports doing the rounds. It seemed like too much of a budgetary stretch, for a team frequently reported to be looking to reduce payroll. Even in the wake of a Ketel Marte trade, there simply did not […]

The Cleveland Browns future could depend on what happens in Week 17 of the 2025 NFL season. The Pittsburgh Steelers may have nothing to play for when the two AFC North teams matchup, while the Las Vegas Raiders and New York Giants, two teams ahead of the Browns in the 2026 NFL draft order currently, […]
The Cubs had struggled early in 2018, but a 16-7 run from May 27 to June 20 had put them into a first-place tie with the Brewers at 42-29. Then they went on a disastrous road trip to Cincinnati and Los Angeles where they lost six of eight. The third of those games was against […]
The Las Vegas Raiders informed defensive end Maxx Crosby that they are shutting him down and he won’t play in the Raiders’ final two regular-season games against the New York Giants and Kansas City Chiefs, according to Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer. Reportedly, that caused a disagreement between Crosby and the club, leading to the Pro […]
There is a race for the No. 1 overall draft pick in the 2026 NFL draft with just three games remaining in the regular season and the Las Vegas Raiders are in the thick of the mix. Let’s take a closer look of where things stand: New York Giants, 1 spot, 2-13 record: Remaining schedule: […]
Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our bi-weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com. The idiot that said, “Harper is coming” asks: Who do you think will be the biggest name player the Yankees […]
As we await some more signings to go down, and specifically await a couple key postings from Japan to resolve, I got to thinking about Chicago Cubs starting pitching prospect Jaxon Wiggins. If all goes well for him in the first half of 2026, there’s a very good chance he could impact the big league team in the second half, much like Cade Horton did in 2025 ( I’ll be realistic and not dream on THAT much impact, but still – doesn’t even have to be that much to be significant! ). And that’s all r...
The Jets make the aggressive swing everyone has been waiting for, jumping up to No. 1 overall in a rare intra-city, intra-stadium trade with the Giants to secure their quarterback of the future to open this NFL Mock Draft . From there, the draft unfolds with familiar themes — quarterback desperation, wide receiver premium, and edge-rusher scarcity — but with some surprising twists. The Raiders dive back into QB roulette. The Browns pivot from their typical trench profile to a wide receive...

One interesting and underdiscussed storyline from this offseason is the future of Luis Garcia Jr. in DC. Despite some speculating that Garcia would be non-tendered, Paul Toboni decided to bring the 25 year old back into the fold. Now that he is back, the biggest question now is how he will be deployed. Down the […]

It was announced earlier in December that Aaron Harang would be inducted into the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame during the summer of 2026. His spate of brilliance came during the mid-aughts era of Reds history, a time when he became both the first pitcher in National League history to lead the league in both […]
Considering the Las Vegas Raiders have already lost to the Tennessee Titans and the Cleveland Browns this season, one could argue that those were the Divisional and Conference Championship rounds for the No. 1 overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft. And now that the two worst teams in the NFL, the Raiders and the […]
There are definitely a lot of questions that this regime needs to answer, one of which is about injuries and why they are so downplayed. Yet, they do not control the concussion protocol, so I guess we can push that onto someone else, but the reality is we need to know more about why Budda […]
There are a couple of massive bullpen meltdowns in this group of losses. There are also a couple of games in which the opposition would simply not stop hitting home runs. I promise you there will be a “5 best Cubs games of 2025” article coming up next week, but I thought we’d start this […]
Over the next six games, the team heads west for a five-game road trip against sub-.500 teams (Pacers, Trail Blazers, Jazz, Kings, and Clippers) and come home to host the Bulls. The first place Pistons have a similar stretch (Jazz, Clippers, Lakers, Heat, and Cavaliers) and the Knicks take on some playoff contenders (Hawks twice, […]
Recent reports indicate that FanDuel Sports Network, one of the biggest regional sports networks remaining in the traditional media market, is at serious risk of bankruptcy.

With postings for righty Tatsuya Imai and corner infielder Kazuma Okamoto coming just after the calendar flips to 2026, and with the Chicago Cubs still popping up in what thin rumors and speculation we see on these two guys, I said something off the cuff for fun. Get ’em both: Maybe the math won't work in the end, but it'd sure be fun as heck if the Cubs landed both Tatsuya Imai and Kazuma Okamoto. — Brett Taylor (@Brett_A_Taylor) December 23, 2025 I hadn’t really put any ...
