Hello and happy Tuesday, folks. Happy World Baseball Classic title game day, too! Team USA will be going for their second WBC title in Miami this evening, while Venezuela is trying to become the fourth nation to win the tournament. It’s the culmination of what’s been a fantastic few days of baseball (well not if […]

If you want a subject to start, tell us about your favourite holiday you’ve had, or tell us about somewhere you would […]
Once again, Monday was a reminder that many parts of the Braves offense have been on fire so far this Spring. Drake Baldwin had another outstanding showing in the Braves Spring Training Victory over the Rays. Ronald Acuna Jr. was a big reason as to why team Venezuela will be facing Team USA in the […]
1901 The White Sox (and their American League counterparts), busy raiding National League teams to bolster talent for their first season in the majors, suffered a rare setback by losing their player-manager, second baseman Dick Padden. Padden cut against the trend lines and joined the NL’s St. Louis Cardinals, making him one of a handful […]
Opening Day is right around the corner the Tampa Bay Rays starting rotation plans have been made official. We already knew that Drew Rasmussen had been selected as the team’s Opening Day starter but we now know how the rest of the starting rotation will fill out. Here is the Rays plan every five days […]
Meet the Mets The Mets fell to the Nationals 12-6 as Washington erupted for six runs in the ninth to break a 6-6 tie. David Peterson allowed four runs in his four innings of work, while Christian Scott took the loss after allowing three earned runs in three-plus innings. Carson Benge went 2-for-2, Ronny Mauricio […]
The baseball world is in the throes of the World Baseball Classic, with the final game Tuesday night featuring Team USA against. Will Smith is the only Dodger still playing in the WBC.

Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
The Arizona Cardinals had plenty of holes after the final game of the 2025 season. Through free agency, Monti Ossenfort has been busy signed new guys to fill the positions of the players who have departed, or weren’t asked to return. On Monday, Ossenfort filled a huge need when he inked veteran safety Andrew Wingard […]
Vinnie Pasquantino incorrectly noted which teams were in the WBC final four and apologized. Oops. It’s ok – he’s highly caffeinated and we all make mistakes when we’re W I R E D. “It’s amazing,” Pasquantino said. “I don’t know how many people would’ve picked the Dominican Republic, Japan, the United States and Italy in […]
Game result: Cubs 5, Cleveland 2. Cade Horton looked damn good, throwing 10 Ks in five innings of work. The Cubs that were willing to ride the bus or unable not to did a good job, with Scott Kingery swatting a two-run homer and Matt Shaw making good contact. Brett Bateman made good contact as […]
Results In the 2001-2002 offseason, the Minnesota Twins franchise was nearly extinguished. The harebrained and somewhat nefarious contraction scheme hatched by MLB Commissioner Bud Selig—and seemingly fully endorsed by Twins owner Carl Pohlad—put MN on the brink of being baseball-less. Fortunately, Hennepin County Judge Harry Crump’s ironclad interpretation of stadium lease laws kept the team […]
Ethan Holliday (No. 2 PuRP) made his debut with the Colorado Rockies big league club on Saturday against the Chicago Cubs at Salt River Fields. The shortstop – who was drafted fourth-overall in the 2025 MLB Draft – played six innings and went 0-for-2 with two strikeouts at the plate, but also made a spectacular […]
My brain refuses to wrap itself around the fact of Taylor Ward being on the Orioles. I’m well aware that they traded for him since I wrote about that here on Camden Chat when it happened. It’s just not real yet. Spring training hasn’t done enough for the idea to sink in that the O’s […]
Good morning, baseball fans! Also, Happy St. Patrick’s Day! The San Francisco Giants do not play today, so instead I thought we’d take another look at Sunday’s game. Spring Training games aren’t usually ones that stand out in the memory hole, but Sunday’s game is definitely going to be an outlier. Not only did the […]
With the World Baseball Classic stealing the show this spring training, the spotlight in Yankees camp has turned to the team’s young prospects. Namely, manager Aaron Boone has been able to give plenty of looks to the up-and-coming trio of Jasson Domínguez, Spencer Jones, and George Lombard Jr. Lombard, who was named New York’s new […]

Earlier in the spring, I took a swing at predicting how the final roster was going to be constructed for opening day, and it’s important to note that the roster on March 26th could wind up looking a lot different on May 1st or even August 3rd. This exercise is intended to take a snapshot […]
Desperately Seeking Season. Phillies News: MLB News:
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Hoops and Mark Mitchell Missouri Basketball begins their NCAA Tournament run on Friday night vs Miami (FL). The Tigers received a favorable draw by the selection committee by being placed in the St. Louis region as a No. 10 seed. I think it’s fair to […]

The World Baseball Classic comes to an end tonight, as Venezuela ended Italy’s magical run to join the United States in the Championship Game. Despite an impressive pedigree of players from the past 20 years — Miguel Cabrera, Bobby Abreu, Magglio Ordóñez, Miguel Cabrera, Jose Altuve, Johan Santana, Félix Hernández, Francisco Rodriguez, etc. — this […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates are making their way through the Spring Training roster cuts, and among those players is one of their top prospects, Termarr Johnson. Johnson was reassigned to the Pirates’ Minor League spring camp after having a strong stint in Bradenton as a non-roster invitee. In 19 appearances, Johnson had a strong .368 batting […]
MLB.com | Bryan Hoch: As spring training nears an end, these are some interesting observations or storylines to follow. Due to a minor setback, Cam Schlittler’s buildup time was pushed back a little, so while he’ll probably only be able to throw 70 or so pitches come Opening Day, the Yankees can leverage a piggyback […]
