PHILADELPHIA — With the Phillies down by five in the ninth, star closer Jhoan Duran emerged from the bullpen. His music played without the usual theatrics of his entrance.

5:07PM: Speaking with MASN Sports and other media after today’s 5-2 win over the Astros, Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said Rutschman is day to day with some discomfort in his left wrist.

On one of the most beautiful Chicago afternoons of the entire summer — upper 70s, low humidity, light wind blowing in — the Cubs offense got going, led by another multi-hit game from Nico Hoerner and a home run by Alex Bregman. Those two were joined by multiple teammates in a 12-hit, six-walk offense in […]

Let’s be honest, were you even watching this game? With the World Cup final on most of the pregame shows available today, you’d be forgiven for not paying much attention to what the Phillies did. Not that you missed anything. Another Alan Rangel start, another example of how poor this teams starting pitching depth is. […]
Despite playing 11 innings on Saturday, Baltimore optioned reliever Cam Sanders and recalled third catcher Sam Huff. Samuel Basallo started today’s game behind the dish, but Huff’s presence indicated that Adley Rutschman was likely unavailable.

After a pre-All Star Break push and a nice victory over the Chicago Cubs on Friday night, the Minnesota Twins looked to take the series and continue their upward trajectory. Alas, that ascent was abandoned with a tough defeat on Saturday followed by this laugher loss today. The small Ursidaes made noise right away in […]
The San Diego Padres are desperate for a reset, which could mean trading All-Star closer Mason Miller. These teams can help San Diego get (indirect) revenge on the Dodgers.
The Mets won their first road series since early June by taking the rubber game against the Phillies today: Mets 6, Phillies 1. The offense had 14 hits and seven walks, and Nolan McLean only allowed two hits and two walks as he shut out the Phillies for six innings. At the top of the […]
It literally pains me to write this, because the idea of flushing an MVP season from Yordan is a sin, yet here we are. Where we are is literally with the finish line in sight.
