It is the ninth year of Top Prospect voting at South Side Sox! First, let us review past years: To make sure we give the SSS readership a strong vote in our South Side Sox Top 100, we’re going to run five or 10 polls before kicking off our Top 100 Prospect countdown. Ideally, we […]
The PWHL's Toronto Sceptres already have a relatively complete roster and are bringing in nine invites to training camp.
Good morning. Tonight’s Game 3 of the World Series will feature 2023 Game 3 starter Max Scherzer, now with the Toronto Blue Jays. On that night two years ago, Max tossed three scoreless innings at Chase Field against the Arizona Diamondbacks as the Texas Rangers scored three early runs on their way to a 3-1 […]
Ten games in, the Rangers are already testing everyone’s patience—inconsistent effort, patchwork lines, and a familiar lack of scoring leave more questions than answers.
Good morning, everyone, and a happy Monday to you all. As always, I’ve got a brand new mailbag ready to go after taking your questions and sending them to the crew for their take. This week, we’re discussing the Oilers’ scoring woes, Isaac Howard’s spot in the lineup, puck management, and more. If you’ve got…
The Minnesota Vikings are next up on the Detroit Lions’ schedule, and they are currently fighting through some adversity. They’ve lost three of their last four games, have a laundry list of injuries—particularly on their offensive line, where they’ve been missing both starting tackles and their starting center for much of the season. But there […]
The Orioles’ bullpen was the unit that underwent the most change throughout the 2025 season. Injuries and poor performance reshuffled the pen at the beginning of the season. It then became a patchwork relief corps when the Orioles traded away four key relievers as part of their July fire sale. The one pitcher there for […]
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 […]
You know the Green Bay Packers will be favored in their Week 9 game against the Carolina Panthers. Green Bay is 5-1-1, coming off a huge, emotional victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, and is playing at home. The Panthers just got drubbed 40-9 by the Buffalo Bills and may be starting Andy Dalton at quarterback […]
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 […]
Syracuse is suffering through a four-game slide after a 41-16 defeat at the hands of the Georgia Tech Yellowjackets on Saturday. The reeling Orange ran headlong into a Yellowjacket buzzsaw, as the 8th ranked Tech improved to 8-0 on the season. As painful as the losses have been, it is important to review them with […]
Newcastle United are set to change their approach to player contracts after the infamous Alexander Isak transfer saga, which has been described as “damaging” despite the record fee received for the striker, in The Athletic’s Chris Waugh words. Waugh explained that one of Ross Wilson’s first responsibilities as the new sporting director of the Magpies […]
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, […]
Sunday evening, we saw the New Orleans Saints fall to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 23-3 and to 1-7 on the season. We also saw Kellen Moore bench Spencer Rattler and put Tyler Shough in at quarterback late in the 3rd quarter. Moore told the media after the game that he made that decision because offense […]
Things don’t feel quite as bad a day or two after Saturday’s embarrassing loss. TMP doesn’t typically dwell on the past; we’re mostly ready to move on to Michigan State. But PJ Fleck is now 1-8 against Iowa and that is a trend we would like to see reversed. How does a loss like that […]
Compared to the chaos of the past few weeks, this Saturday was a relatively quiet one in college football. There were still some great games: Oklahoma-Ole Miss and Vanderbilt-Missouri both lived up to their billing as top-15 matchups, Memphis stunned then-#18 South Florida with a fourth-quarter rally, then-#22 Texas stunned Mississippi State with a fourth-quarter […]

It’s another week and another surprising result in a rollercoaster season for the Houston Texans. Your Texans defeated the San Francisco 49ers 26-15, but the performance was more dominating than that on both ends of the game. The numbers will likely tell us as much, but we look anyway for the cumulative effect. The more […]

The Edmonton Oilers goalie trade candidates conversation is back on the front burner, and Matt Larkin of Daily Faceoff just mapped the market in tiers. With Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in their prime and the window still open, Larkin argues Edmonton should explore upgrades even if Stuart Skinner steadies. His board ranges from low-risk veteran help to true franchise changers, giving general manager Stan Bowman multiple paths if he decides to act. Alex Lyon has been exceptional for ...
The first two weeks of the 2025-26 Pittsburgh Penguins season have gone way better than anybody expected, and this past week was no exception. I looked at the three games they were facing a week ago and realistically expected three or maybe four points out of it. They ended up getting five. The games against […]
