NHL weekend rankings: Five surprising early stories I'm not buying quite yet

You have to love the early weeks of an NHL season. One week ago, in our first rankings of the year, we had the Panthers in the top spot because they were 3-0-0, were wondering if anyone could beat the Bruins, and were trying to figure out if the Sabres would ever score again.

Joe Whitt’s defense allowed a staggering 409 yards (6.6 yards per play). That same unit gave up 152 rushing yards. The secondary allowed Lamb and […]

Who takes Game 7?

Today’s question of the day is pretty simple: who wins tonight? The Mariners had a chance to move on to the World Series last night, but they started swinging at everything under God’s blue sky. Trey Yesavage was very good in his start, but the Mariners had him on the ropes a few times by […]

Will Vest rode a new angle to new heights in 2025

No Detroit Tiger broke out on the national stage this postseason as much as their closer, Will Vest. Tarik Skubal is a known star after his dominant, Cy Young-winning 2024 campaign, Kerry Carpenter’s ascent thanks in part to Aaron Judge’s hitting coach has been well covered, and everyone knew Javy Baez already. Meanwhile, the “pitching […]

Orioles season review: Dean Kremer

Imagine if, back in March, someone told you that Dean Kremer would spend most of the season as the #1 or #2 starting pitcher for the Orioles. You would know that if this person’s prediction was going to prove true, things would either have to go very, very well for Kremer himself, or very, very […]

The ACC adds a ranked team after top 25 upheaval

When your team struggles through a season, it can be easy to get caught up in that at the expense of enjoying some of the fun things happening elsewhere in the sport. That’s why I’m really hoping Carolina fans are able to zoom out from the mess unfolding in Chapel Hill enough to recognize that […]

Player review: Spencer Bivens

2025 stats: 81 IP, 54 G, 4.00 ERA, 3.70 FIP, 1.33 WHIP, 6.78 K/9, 2.78 BB/9, 0.4 fWAR In 2024, the 29-year old right-hander’s debut in the big leagues was the feel-good story of the year. He had spent a decade on a very long-and-winding road with no promise it would guide him anywhere. Still […]

Happy Birthday Dave Collins

Dave Collins turns 73 today. Unfortunately, we don’t have a picture of him in a Jays jersey. Dave (they called him Davey a lot back then. I think if I were a Dave, I’d punch anyone who called me Davey) was with the Blue Jays for two seasons of a 16-year MLB career. How we […]
