Lions DC Kelvin Sheppard shuts down talk of LSU head coach job

Over the weekend, the LSU Tigers opted to fire Brian Kelly after a 49-25 loss to Texas A&M dropped them to 5-3 on the season.

2025 Player Review: Rafael Marchán

Rafael Marchán tends to fly under the radar. He’s not a three-time All-Star like J.T. Realmuto, and he’s not a beloved master of locker room ceremonies like Garrett Stubbs. He stepped into a larger role this year for the Phillies, but still occupied only a small part of the Phillies faithful’s collective consciousness. Those of […]

AJ Minter’s absence loomed large this season

When the Mets signed AJ Minter in January, the hope was that he would become a key member of the bullpen they had been missing: an effective lefty reliever. He had been great in Atlanta for his entire career up to this point, holding a 3.28 ERA with 422 strikeouts in 348 2/3 innings since […]

The Toronto Blue Jays are big back

It’s fitting that in the year of the Big Dumper, the Blue Jays are on the verge of their first World Series win in more than 30 years. If they had to vanquish one spectacularly large ass to make the Fall Classic, it was made possible by a collection of more ‘donks that was more […]

Was the Royals’ high walk rate in the second half for real?

The Royals have never been a team to walk much, but they did improve their patience in the second half of the season. They had a 6.4 percent walk rate in the first half – dead last in baseball – and an 8.5 percent walk rate after the All-Star break, 13th-best in baseball. I wanted […]

Cubs contracts: An extension proposal for Nico Hoerner

Finally, I think I’ve got one here that all of us can agree on. Nico Hoerner was one of the top players in the National League this year. He might have received an All-Star nod if he’d hit somewhat better in the first half. Overall his year was worth 6.1 bWAR, which ranked tied for […]

Yankees 2025 Roster Report Cards: Luke Weaver

Luke Weaver entered this season with high expectations.
