When the famed first Elvis Presley Christmas Album came out in October 1957, White Sox fans already had plenty to cheer about. The team had just finished its seventh straight winning season, part of a streak that would continue for another decade. The 90-win total wasn’t enough to challenge the dreaded Yankees, but the Sox […]
Barcelona are back on top of the La Liga table for at least 24 hours thanks to a 4-0 win over Athletic Club on their historic return to the Spotify Camp Nou on Saturday afternoon. The Catalans weren’t exactly at their best but still played well enough and were clinical in front of goal it […]

The Seattle Seahawks’ loss against the Los Angeles Rams needs to generate lessons learned, but it can’t reverberate forever. The focus needs to be on the Tennessee Titans. The Tennessee team has only one win this season, against the Arizona Cardinals, in a bizarre game. The last 8 Seahawks-Tennessee games have been decided by one […]
It is no secret that the Atlanta Braves struggled at the shortstop position for most of the season. Nick Allen had an elite glove but could not hit. They also struggled with health in the infield, with Austin Riley and Ozzie Albies both missing chunks of time with injuries. The Braves needed some depth, and […]

Brusdar Graterol has been a high-leverage reliever for the bulk of his time with the Dodgers, but he did not pitch at all this year after shoulder surgery to repair a torn labrum last November. Among the 324 pitchers with at least 150 innings from 2020-23, Graterol ranked 18th in ERA (2.69) and 25th in […]
Friday was the deadline for teams to tender a contract for the 2026 season to players on their roster that were arbitration eligible. Whenever this deadline hits, there are several surprise players that are cut loose, but most of the time, it’s a chance for teams to move on from players that are projected to […]
The Lions have now dropped three of their last five games—more than they lost in the entire 2024 regular season—after hitting an unwelcome offensive rock bottom against the Eagles, producing their first single-digit performance (9 points) since that forgettable Week 7, 2023 loss to the Ravens. Sitting third in the NFC North, Detroit once again […]
This is an early photo of Cubs Hall of Fame outfielder Billy Williams, and with the scoreboard matchups here it was pretty easy to sleuth this one.

But according to another former All-Star Russian player, Alexei Kovalev, Panarin may actually...

The Washington Nationals new regime is continuing their youth movement. While no hitting coach has been named yet, the Nats have hired an assistant hitting coach.

The early Saturday kick-off, especially after an international break, is rarely the game that gifts us flowing, entertaining football, and that was certainly the case here, especially early on. Chelsea could hardly string together a couple passes or hit an accurate long ball, let alone pose any danger on the opposition goal. Burnley weren’t much […]
