Biceps Biceps Biceps. Seriously. When Michael Lorenzen walks off the mound and gets a close-up on the broadcast, that’s all I can see. The man’s got muscles upon muscles in those arms. I assume that’s why he’s still pumping mid-90s heat as he enters his mid-30s. The Royals acquired Lorenzen from the Texas Rangers in […]

There’s a nagging paradox at the heart of baseball — or any sport, really — and it’s this: The goal of every single player is to play the game perfectly; but if they ever did, there would no longer be any reason for us to watch. To the fans, perfection is not only boring, it’s […]
Morning everyone, and happy Monday! The Athletics had a pair of players nominated as finalists for the Gold Glove at their respective positions. It was a slight surprise but one welcomed by the fan base. Unfortunately neither was able to reel in the prestigious award but being a finalist is still something to be proud […]

It was not a good day for John Hussey’s officiating crew. One of the more noticeable things from the 49ers’ 34–24 win over the New York Giants on Sunday was how baffling some of the calls that fell on Hussey’s watch. The 49ers got away with a couple of things, too—notably a false start on […]

Before tonight’s game kicks off in Arlington, here’s a look at some First TD odds, game lines, and other props for the matchup.

Mandatory Credi...
The Los Angeles Rams had a nice win over the New Orleans Saints, the San Francisco 49ers beat up a New York Giants team, but the NFC West win of the weekend (the Arizona Cardinals will play on Monday Night Football) has to be the Seattle Seahawks blasting the Washington Commanders. Full disclosure, I was […]
Monday is a day to replace the suffering of the weekend with the suffering of the workweek. Let’s think about something other than suffering. On Saturday, Mark Bowman helpfully reiterated the list of key dates for this offseason. Combine that with the Braves needing to make a managerial hire and potentially reshuffling their coaching staff, […]
Please tell me you watched the Bears game yesterday. That was UNREAL . One of the wildest games in years, with the Bears blowing a huge lead late – in large part because of a brutally bogus call on a should-have-been-game-ending-pick-6 – and then somehow summoning the moxy to turn it right back around into a last-minute win. The MLB offseason has officially arrived, and this is the slate of dates and deadlines if you missed it or want to brush up. The first wave of deadlines comes on Th...
Good morning. Evan Grant offers up an early offseason projection which sees the Texas Rangers moving on from Marcus Semien. Speaking of Semien, Kennedi Landry notes that the veteran claimed the first ever Gold Glove award for a second baseman in franchise history. It was Semien’s second Gold Glove award, but first with Texas. Jeff […]
While the biggest news of the weekend is no doubt the conclusion of the World Series, with the Los Angeles Dodgers winning their second championship in as many years in an 11-inning nail-biter, there was a more exciting bit of news on the Tigers’ front. Tigers’ catcher Dillon Dingler, who had an incredible breakout season […]
Instant takes about how great a World Series is is the new norm. We live in an age where everything has to be ranked, from sports teams to Halloween candy. Nothing can simply exist any longer. It needs to be placed in some kind of strange pantheon among all other subjects that are tangentially related. […]
Baltimore faced plenty of adversity on the mound last season. Zach Eflin provided less than 75 innings, Charlie Morton fell off a cliff, and Grayson Rodriguez never made an appearance for the Orioles. Kyle Gibson failed to rediscover his 2023 magic, and both Kyle Bradish and Tyler Wells returned far too late to make an […]
Team News [Burn City Sports] Corbin Carroll falls short of Gold Glove but makes defensive statement – Carroll’s emergence showcased his adaptability and growth into a multidimensional player. Already known for his bat and speed, the Diamondbacks outfielder led National League right fielders with +9 Outs Above Average and posted +7 Defensive Runs Saved, tied […]
With recent news of Gervonta “Tank” Davis facing a civil lawsuit for violence against a former partner, MVP has officially issued a statement saying that they are currently investigating the issue as it pertains to his scheduled exhibition with Jake Paul, which appears to have to potential to get shut down before it ever happens. […]
Meet the Mets David Peterson and Luis Torrens were not selected as National League Gold Glovers, extending the Mets’ winless streak to 11 seasons since Juan Lagares’ win in 2014. Eight different Mets are officially free agents including Starling Marte, Ryan Helsley, and Cedric Mullins. Around the National League East Matt Olson won his third […]
The Dallas Cowboys are basically in a must-win situation this Monday night when they host the Arizona Cardinals. Dallas is 3-4-1 and have a bye week coming up. If they want to stay at all relevant in the playoff chase, they have to beat a struggling 2-5 Cardinals team. If Dallas can get to the […]
The BVB jet will be feeling the miles with another away day, this time abroad. Dortmund are travelling to England this week to face off against Manchester City after their weekend victory in Bavaria against FC Augsburg. The matches keep coming for BVB, but fortunately, the squad seems to be keeping mostly fit. Dortmund are […]
The World Series has given baseball fans from all walks of life memories for life. From Bill Mazeroski’s walk-off home run in 1960, the catch by Willie Mays in 1954, Luis Gonzalez’s walk-off against Mariano Rivera to thwart the New York Yankees’ chances of winning four straight championships in 2001, and more recently, the Chicago […]
