It has been a few days since the 2026 NHL Entry Draft, where the Buffalo Sabres added to the next generation of young future players to don the blue and…
Sebastian Walcott underwent successful internal brace surgery on his elbow last week, per the beats. This is good news, as Walcott’s damaged UCL did not need the full Tommy John replacement surgery, which would involve a longer recovery time than the internal brace surgery. With what the Rangers are indicating is an expected 5 to […]
Today we look at the Cubs’ right-handed sometime reliever. Gavin Ernest Hollowell was born in Somerset, NJ, 11/04/1997. He’s a 6’7”, 215 pounder, a sixth-round pick by the Rockies in the 2019 Amateur Draft, a graduate of St. John’s. Hollowell had some coffee in Colorado in 2022-23, appearing in 32 games during that span, throwing […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers enter 2026 with the eighth-most cap space in the NFL, sitting with approximately $44.7 million. That number can jump up to roughly $57.2 million if they were to part ways with Patrick Queen, who has been labeled as a cut candidate ahead of the new league year. General manager Omar Khan spoke […]
The Cleveland Browns are one of those franchises that are annually linked to every available quarterback on the market. Such is life in the NFL when you have gone through 42 different starting quarterbacks since 1999, a roster of names filled with draft picks both high (Baker Mayfield at No. 1 overall) and low (Spergon […]
The 2026 NFL Scouting Combine has kicked off. We will get some more data on these prospects over the next few days. The tape should be the biggest data point for prospects, but inevitably, there will be guys who move up and down based on the numbers they put up in Indianapolis. Mel Kiper has […]
The Royals won 82 games last year, five games out of a playoff spot and four games worse than they were in 2025. It was tantalizingly close, and the reason they fell short seemed easy enough to identify – outfield offensive production. Royals outfielders collectively hit .225/.285/.348, a 73 wRC+ mark that was easily the […]
Well, all the fun is over. The Stadium Series Game. The Olympics. The glorious Olympic Break. Now it’s time to get back to the grind of making the playoffs and competing for the Stanley Cup. The good news is that, standings-wise, the Tampa Bay Lightning are in pretty good shape. The bad news is that they can’t seem to shake the injury bug. As play is set to resume, the Lightning sit atop the Atlantic Division with 78 points, a six-point edge over second-place Montreal. More importantly, t...

The highest game total in the 2005 NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the Detroit Pistons was Game 5 with the Spurs winning 96-95.

Down at the NFL Combine, a pair of NFL general managers provided updates on two players many Detroit Lions fans were hoping to see come to Detroit this offseason.

There have been 250 big league hitters who have logged at least 650 plate appearances since the start of the 2024 season. Orlando Arcia, who somehow could not find a way to hit with the Colorado Rockies last season, ranks dead last among that group with a meager 62 wRC+ in that time. Ranking just […]
The Philadelphia Flyers aren't quite out of the playoff race in the East this season, but they aren't exactly in a great spot coming out of the Olympic break either. The team sits eight points back with one game in hand, but have only won three of their last 10 games, have five teams to jump, and there's interest in at least one of their players that the Flyers would be able to get a solid return for. Anthony Di Marco said, "I've heard five or six teams have checked in on Rasmus Ristolainen ov...

Happy Tuesday, TOC Nation. Welcome to this week’s survey. MSU Hoops has a big game this Thursday at Purdue. In addition to being a contest that will go a long way in the Big Ten’s battle for 2nd place, or at the very least a triple-bye (yes, “triple”!) in the newly formatted Big Ten Tournament, […]

Just two years ago, it felt like the San Francisco 49ers were set at wide receiver for the foreseeable future with Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel locked into long-term contracts. Well, the foreseeable future has already passed, and now it seems the 49ers are due for a hard reset at the position. Jauan Jennings, Kendrick […]
As we get closer and closer to Selection Sunday, which falls on March 15 this year, the biggest question Ohio State fans have been asking over the last few weeks is “How many games do we need to win to get in to the NCAA Tournament?” With at least five games remaining, the Ohio State […]
Ryan Hartman is an interesting player to keep an eye on ahead of the March 6th trade deadline. Every player or team we’ve looked at so far in this series has been on a team that will sell in the next couple of weeks. Hartman is not the case, as the Minnesota Wild are firmly…
