PHOENIX – The Arizona Diamondbacks are the definition of a team caught between promise and frustration, though what side will the D-backs end up on when it comes time for the trade deadline?

The Phillies announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander Lou Trivino. Fellow righty Chase Shugart was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley in the corresponding active roster move. The 40-man roster has had a vacancy since Bryse Wilson was designated for assignment last week, later going to the Cubs via waivers. Trivino fills that […]

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is in the worst slump of his career, but the underlying numbers make it surprisingly difficult to explain.
Yesterday, MLB Pipeline updated their top 100 list, which now features six Washington Nationals. The combination of depth and high end talent in the system is very impressive. While the depth is great, it is clear that Eli Willits is the crown jewel of the system, and is ranked as the third best prospect in […]
In last week’s fan survey, Brady asked which of these three Giants were most likely to be moved by this year’s August 3rd trade deadline: Rafael Devers, Matt Chapman, or Willy Adames? This was based on Buster Posey’s comments that the entire roster, save Logan Webb, could be had in trade. As Brady pointed out, […]

Why would you watch Germany face World Cup elimination in a penalty shootout when you could watch two teams slow-motion walking toward the top of their divisions in the American League? Of course, I’m talking about the Cleveland Guardians vs. Texas Rangers thumb-wrestling match. Now that's appointment television!
In Monday's marquee game, Cleveland's Parker Messick faced off against the Rangers' bullpen, with the bulk of the innings thrown by Chris Paddack, debuting with his third team this...
GLENDALE – For years, the Arizona Cardinals have faced an uphill battle in convincing star players that the franchise is worth investing in long-term. Winning changes perception, but before championships come commitment. Trey McBride may have delivered exactly that during his appearance on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast. Speaking with former NFL veterans Will Compton […]
Pride Night 2026 came and went with relatively little fanfare or drama, all things considered. It is easy to forget that this time last year, tensions in Los Angeles surrounding the Dodgers were elevated, partly because Clayton Kershaw decided to doodle on his cap (not the subject of today’s essay) and partly because the city […]

CC Sabathia remembers being able to take care of his family as soon as he signed his first MLB contract.
