The first ever draft pick is now the all-time games player leader.
UPDATE: LeBron James will indeed make his season debut on Tuesday against the Jazz. After practicing with the team on Monday, LeBron went through shootaround in the morning. His body responded well to all of that, setting him up to suit up for the first time this season. LeBron missed the first 14 games of […]
I’m not even sure what to say about that game. Through the first six or seven minutes, things looked somewhat promising. After that, the train went off the tracks. Kentucky basketball managed to score just 27 points in the first half and trailed by 15 to Michigan State headed into the break. The Cats had […]
The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team is back in action from the JMA Wireless Dome, hosting the Monmouth Hawks. Syracuse is off to a strong start with the No. 1 scoring defense, field goal percentage defense and three point percentage defense in the country. JJ Starling will make his return to the court tonight, as […]
UConn men’s basketball’s gauntlet of a nonconference schedule continues Wednesday night, as the No. 3 Huskies welcome No. 4 Arizona to Gampel Pavilion for the second-ever top-five matchup in Storrs. After holding on late to beat then No. 7 BYU at TD Garden on Saturday, Dan Hurley and the Huskies will welcome a tough Arizona […]
Kentucky basketball’s already thin lineup took another major hit Tuesday night against Michigan State when starting forward Mo Dioubate suffered what appeared to be a rolled ankle with 5:03 left in the game. The injury occurred as Dioubate came down from a rebound attempt, and his leg became tangled with another player, causing him to […]
Well, Chicago’s bare-bones Rule 5 protection moves from earlier in the day make a lot of sense given the reports regarding their involvement in several trades late this afternoon. The wheels were turning in their front office, sending off two relievers and a minor-league catcher for a pitcher and two position players. According to Bob […]
The 2025 season was arguably the best in recent memory for the San Francisco Giants farm system, but most of the work has happened at lower levels. As such, the development hasn’t left too many players on the precipice of the Majors, and that was on display Tuesday, with a critical decision the Giants made. […]
Tuesday, November 18th stood as the deadline for Major League organizations to add players to their 40-man rosters. This is important to consider in accordance with the yearly Rule 5 Draft. Players who were signed to the club at 18 years old or younger and have been in the organization for five seasons, or players […]
Second baseman Gleyber Torres has accepted the Tigers qualifying offer and will return for the 2026 season at $22 million for the year. This was always the likely outcome, so hopefully the Tigers anticipated this and really wanted him back for 2026. The soon-to-be 29-year-old infielder is coming off a season that held a lot […]
Kansas, minus star freshman Darryn Peterson, takes on Duke in what should have been a great matchup on ESPN at 8pm Central Time. This one could get ugly. Feel free to overreact in real time in our open game thread. Rock Chalk!
The Dodgers added pitcher Ronan Kopp to the 40-man roster, ahead of Tuesday’s deadline to set rosters ahead of the Rule 5 Draft. Earlier this offseason, the Dodgers also added outfielder/first baseman Ryan Ward and pitcher Robinson Ortiz to the 40-man roster to keep them from reaching minor league free agency. Ortiz on Sunday was […]

With it being Rule 5 protection day, there was a flurry of minor moves around MLB and the Twins got involved as well. Reliever Eric Orze, a casualty of the Tampa Bay Rays’ roster crunch, was acquired for minor league pitcher Jacob Kisting. Addtionally, the Twins protected a slew of their own prospects from the […]
The Indianapolis Colts announced the signing of defensive end Viliami Fehoko Jr., safety George Odum, wide receiver Eli Pancol, and defensive tackle Chris Wormley to the practice squad, while also releasing defensive end Tanoh Kpassagnon, tight end Maximilian Mang, and cornerback Troy Pride Jr. in corresponding roster moves. It was reported yesterday by CBS Sports’ […]
The NBA has had an issue with keeping star players healthy the past several years, but especially so this season. Because of the increased injury risks and how losing a star player can change an entire season — like it has for the Boston Celtics and Indiana Pacers — teams are incentivized to lighten the […]
Barcelona’s ongoing financial tightrope was back in focus this week, with La Liga executive Javier Gómez outlining both the challenges the club faces and the broader concerns about competitive balance across Spanish football. Speaking at The College of Economists of Catalonia, during the presentation of the report The Finances of the Five Major European Leagues 2023/24, […]
The Utah Mammoth visit the Shark Tank tonight, getting ready to finish out the second night of a tough back-to-back series. Last night, the Mammoth fell in overtime to the Anaheim Ducks 3-2. Since its hot start, Utah has cooled off a bit. The Mammoth are 10-7-2 for the season, not as far ahead of the San Jose Sharks as the team once was. Utah has points in three straight games, but has lost its last two. Similarly, the Sharks are on a two-game losing streak after falling to the Calgary Fl...
Fansided’s Robert Murray reports that, according to his sources, the San Francisco Giants have hired Justin Meccage (pronounced “Message”) to be their pitching coach in 2025. Meccage is a 45-year old former Yankee farmhand with a diverse coaching and development background that probably stood out for the similarly well-traveled Tony Vitello. He was drafted by […]
It’s November 19th, and your Chicago Bears are in first place in the NFC North. I repeat, it’s November 19th, and your Chicago Bears are in first place in the NFC North. “They haven’t beaten anybody.” “They are the luckiest team in the league.” “Caleb Williams stinks.” Just let the hate wash over you like […]
The idea that the St. Louis Cardinals might be interested in signing a once-prolific free agent like Max Scherzer during a period of rebuild might seem insane, but I can at least make an argument that there could be some wisdom to a move like this. We know that Max Scherzer plans to pitch again […]
Well, all of us fans arrive at the bye week for our Miami Dolphins, now knowing that things have not gone to plan thus far, with maybe the exception of the last few weeks. We either didn’t expect to be a bad team with a bad roster, sitting here at 4-7, or we hoped or […]

Wolves fans know this. There’s trauma in […]
