Good morning, baseball fans! I’ve been a little distracted over the last couple of weeks, so I completely missed the fact that the 2026 Hall of Fame ballots had been announced. The most notable name on the ballot for San Francisco Giants fans this year will be none other than former outfielder and current broadcaster […]
It all happened fast. A Sunday afternoon in May saw the Colorado Rockies pounding the San Diego Padres 9-3 and preparing to get on a plane to play the Texas Rangers. Bud Black was late to his post-game media scrum, and the air was weird. Something was going on, but no one was sure what. […]

We cover the coverage like PCA covers center field. It gets old, repeating the same non-news every day, or every other day. The nature of this team’s management group means that they’re frustrating to root for. But nonetheless we persist, and try to err on the positive side, if possible. Several sources report that Evan […]

As Skenes said after […]
MLB.com | Mike Petriello: Everyone was talking about the Toronto Blue Jays’ good old-fashioned contact approach in their pennant-winning season, even as the true strength of their offense was much more complicated than just getting the bat on the ball.

MLB RUMORS — Brett and I got into this a bit in our latest episode of the Bleacher Nation Cubs podcast (which is still going into the offseason!), but it bears repeating in writing: For however much we may want the Cubs to add an impact bat this offseason, and for however much adding that bat at third base makes the most sense, and for however much we ALSO believe the Cubs want to continue supporting their pipeline into the NPB and Japenese-player market, we do NOT think Munetaka Murakami is ...
