In the daily links piece before, I mentioned how much I’ve enjoyed this World Series that has played out. The blow out and the pitching duel had something for everyone to enjoy as far as how the games, but I wondered about other people. There are lots of Phillies fans that check out of baseball […]
The Dallas Cowboys took a beating in their Week 8 matchup with the Denver Broncos. The 44-24 drubbing erased all the good vibes that had been building around Dallas after it seemed their defense was starting to come together just a bit. Turns out that was a false dawn. Injuries, just plain bad play, mixed […]
While all eyes are currently on the World Series, the offseason is looming right behind it. With that comes the knowledge that the Tigers are going to have to make some tough decisions if they plan to be really competitive next season. While the team has made the postseason for two years in a row, […]
After slogging through a horrifying 41-year-old season in which time once again remained undefeated, Max Scherzer somehow found a bit of his old self against the Mariners in the ALCS, logging 5.2 innings and keeping Seattle’s offense at bay. It was a hell of a way to cap off a Hall of Fame career. Except […]
Meet the Mets Mets assistant pitching coach Desi Druschel will be leaving New York (Queens) and returning to New York (Bronx) to take back his old role as an assistant to Yankees’ pitching coach Matt Blake. Around the National League East Federal Baseball wondered whether this is the year that the Nationals dip more than […]
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
Good morning, baseball fans! The 2025 World Series continues tonight between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers. The series moves to Los Angeles for Game 3 tonight. Taking the mound for the Blue Jays will be right-hander Max Scherzer, who is no stranger to World Series appearances. Scherzer ended the regular season […]
Nick Deeds at MLB Trade Rumors writes that the Royals’ pitching depth is ripe for a trade. Bubic dominated this season with a 2.55 ERA and 2.90 FIP in 20 starts that earned him an All-Star nod, and while a rotator cuff strain ended his 2025 campaign early he’s expected to have a normal offseason […]
Sunday’s Clasico was full of controversy as usual but one incident in particular caught the eye from a Barcelona perspective. Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajal pushed Ronald Araujo late on in the game in the penalty area in a collision that went unpunished by referee César Soto Grado. Even former ref Mateu Lahoz was surprised […]
When Aron Estrada’s 2024 season in review was posted here on Camden Chat, Mark Brown called him the best Orioles prospect you don’t know yet. One year later, Estrada has followed his good 2024 season with an even better 2025. I think it’s fair to say that, if you follow Orioles prospects at all, you […]
Last week, I tried to take a peek into what would be necessary to trade Nolan Arenado, and as expected, the conclusion was that the Cardinals would have to include more than half of his salary and also not really get anything back. I may revisit Arenado trade possibilities by looking into bad contract swaps […]
Happy Monday, everyone! We are officially in the final week of baseball for the 2025 season. The World Series continues tonight with Game 3, and presently the series is tied 1-1 between the Blue Jays and Dodgers, and by the end of the weekend, we will see which team is supreme, and we can turn […]
As the Milwaukee Brewers’ season retreats further into the rearview mirror, we are naturally starting to think about the offseason, which will begin in earnest at the Winter Meetings the week of December 7. The Brewers should have money to spend this offseason, and they certainly have the chips to make a trade if they […]
Three of the four NFC West Division teams had a bye this weekend: Arizona Cardinals, Los Angeles Rams, and Seattle Seahawks. The Rams, Seahawks, and San Francisco 49ers were in a three-way tie with identical 5-2-0 records going into Week 8. The Cardinals brought up the rear with a 2-5-0 record. RELATED: HATE WATCH GUIDE […]
Mizzou suffered their second loss of the season on the road by the final score of 17-10 to Vanderbilt. It was close, but no cigar (just like the loss to Alabama). In a competitive game on the road against a top-10 opponent, Mizzou had some contributors step up but couldn’t quite finish the deal. Let’s […]
The World Series is fully underway. While the rest of the baseball world focuses on the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays trading blows, fans of the Colorado Rockies are waiting for something else. The Rockies will hopefully hire their new head of baseball operations within the next two weeks. The two known finalists […]
1876 Some 24 years before the White Sox were even founded, a key member of the later-1900s Pale Hose was born on this day. Patrick “Patsy” Doughtery of Andover, N.Y. came to the White Sox during their 1906 World Series-winning season. The club purchased Doughterty from the New York Highlanders on June 6, when the […]

Good morning, Camden Chatters. We have major Orioles news! This is not a drill. The O’s apparently have made their decision on a new manager, reportedly finalizing a deal with Craig Albernaz to be their new skipper, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan. The Orioles have not yet made an announcement.’ This was kind of an unexpected […]
The World Series shifts to Los Angeles today and I have to say: been a pretty good series thus far. Watching the Dodgers get their doors blown off is always fun, but I’m also one of those pitching duel aficionados that actually prefers those types of games to a 12-10 homer fest. I enjoyed Game […]
Rabbit Maranville arrives in Chicago, and other stories. Happy birthday to Ralph Kiner* and other former Cubs. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, Bleed Cubbie Blue is pleased to present a light-hearted, Cubs-centric look at baseball’s colorful past. Here’s a handy Cubs timeline, to help you follow the various narrative paths. “Maybe I called it wrong, but it’s official.” — Tom […]
It’s a strange October: Montreal and Detroit lead the Atlantic, Utah leads the West, and the Rangers are last in the East. Their four-game winning streak stopped via shootout, the Islanders (currently still in the second wild card) are now preparing for tomorrow night in Boston. That’s before the road trip continues with a tough […]
Barcelona’s Clasico clash with Real Madrid on Sunday brought about plenty of chaos and controversy as is the norm when the two bitter rivals meet. VAR played its role in the game and the audios have now been released. Let’s take a look: The first audio relates to the early decision to rule out a […]
The Leafs likely will practice, though.
