2025 Dodgers season review: Ryan Loutos

2025 Diamondbacks Player Reviews #61: Trevor Richards

Overview 2025 review I’m somewhat impressed that Getty Images had as many as two (2) pictures of Richards in a D-backs uniform, with which to illustrate this article. After all, he only appeared in two (2) games for Arizona, over a three-day span, both against the Houston Astros. Trevor did spend a total of eight […]

The Season That Was: José Berríos

Coming into 2025, José Berríos was three seasons into a seven-year, $131,000,000 contract. He does have an opt-out after next season, but then he has $6 million salary bump after next season, which I think will keep him satisfied. 2022 wasn’t good, but 2023 and 2024 were quite good, with a 2.5 bWAR and a […]

Xabi Alonso: “We’re still in November, there’s a long way to go”

Following the 0-0 draw with Rayo Vallecano, Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso spoke to the media and addressed criticism by saying, “I’m concerned about wanting to keep growing, wanting to keep improving, being positively self-critical, constructively self-critical”. He added that, “I think this is Real Madrid, we all know where we are and what we […]

After putting up 47 points on the road last week, what will the Chicago Bears do for the home fans today against the New York Giants?

2005 After a season that saw the White Sox win their first World Series title since 1917, the Baseball Writers Association of America named Ozzie Guillén Manager of the Year. Guillén, the former Sox All-Star shortstop, guided the team to a wire-to-wire Central Division title with 99 wins; they then went 11-1 in the postseason, capping […]

2025 Atlanta Braves Player Review: Jake Fraley

As a man with a long beard, I am really in love with Jake Fraley’s beard. We have a similar hair color, but mine doesn’t come in quite as full as his. It’s really a magnificent beard. I probably need to try rounding mine out a bit more and see if that helps. Oh, baseball. […]

2025 Dodgers season review: River Ryan

Given how strong and healthy the Dodgers starting pitching was over the final two months of the regular season and into the postseason, it’s easy to forget some of the previous contributors waiting in the wings to return.
