87 hitters have taken 100 PA so far in AA leagues so far this season. The best batting line among them belongs to the Blue Jays’ 2024 fourth round draft pick, Sean Keys. Keys played his college ball at Bucknell, putting up ridiculous numbers against pretty pedestrian Patriot League competition. He popped a bit with […]
Roma bounced back from consecutive defeats by beating Sassuolo 1-0 at the Mapei Stadium on Sunday. It wasn’t the most eye-catching performance for the Giallorossi, but another three points moves Roma joint top of the table with Napoli. Listen along as we break down Roma’s latest win and discuss much more, including: -Defense covering for […]
Arsenal have to be feeling like this could be their year. They’re top of the Premier League table right now, and looking good so far in both of the tournaments that they’ve started competing in. Up next is a Wednesday night visit from Brighton & Hove Albion, in the League Cup’s fourth round. Both sides […] The post Arsenal vs Brighton Predicted Starting XIs (League Cup 4th Round) appeared first on The Sports Bank .
JJ McCarthy is set to return to the Minnesota Vikings’ starting lineup as their QB1. However, it comes at a painful price with fellow quarterback Carson Wentz heading to injured reserve after it was announced that he will have season-ending shoulder surgery: NEWS: Vikings QB Carson Wentz is undergoing season-ending surgery on his left shoulder, sources tell me and @aleclewis.bsky.social. He will be placed on IR. Wentz played multiple games with the injury. J.J. McCarthy is in line t...
Happy Monday, everyone. I was having a good Monday. That is, until Shannon Dawson addressed the media today. No witty quips here. Let’s get to it. 1) Yeah, I’m not happy after Dawson addressed the media on Monday. Here’s why (Dawson starts at the 29-minute mark; I’m not going to transcribe all of it): Ok, […]
Amidst all the online craziness that was the fad of the popular reality TV show “Love Island” this summer (it still feels like a fever dream to me), there was one phrase I never seemed to forget: “early days.” Still finding their footing, everyone in the show would constantly bring up how it was still […]
2025 World Series — Tonight, the Los Angeles Dodgers will host the Toronto Blue Jays for Game Three of the World Series, with the teams having split the first two games in Toronto. You can do this dance with pretty much every game early in a seven-game series, but, yes, Game Three is often a swing game. From Sarah Langs : “In the history of best-of-seven postseason series with the current 2-3-2 format, teams that have split the first two games at home still have gone on to win the ...
The final standard elevation is now in the rearview for Terrell Jennings. A move to the 53-man roster of the New England Patriots is ahead. It just didn’t become official to begin the week. The running back reverted to the practice squad along with safety Richie Grant, a recent signing, on Monday. Both served as […]
The Los Angeles Rams added reinforcements to the cornerback room one week ahead of the NFL’s trade deadline. They acquired CB Roger McCreary from the Tennessee Titans in a late-round pick swap. This was a low risk acquisition from LA’s perspective. If McCreary can play above the relatively low expectations set for Cobie Durant, Darious […]
Well, that didn’t go well at all. The San Francisco 49ers were dominated on both sides of the ball and sustained even more injuries across their defensive line. There was a point on Sunday afternoon where the 49ers were down one possession. The Texans won by 11 points, but the game within the game belonged […]
Sunday in Denver was a litmus test for the Dallas Cowboys. They set out to take on one of the NFL’s better teams in the Broncos, and while they are an AFC team and therefore a loss to them is the most minimal kind of defeat Dallas could ever suffer from a tie-breaking standpoint, the […]
In our “Let’s Argue” series, our Mark Gunnels considers the hot takes, wacky predictions and unpopular opinions of Kansas City Chiefs fans from all over the world. The Chiefs have the NFL’s best wide receiver corps This take isn’t as crazy as it sounds. With the Rice back in the fold, the Chiefs have a […]

Arsenal stayed top of the table yesterday, beating Crystal Palace 1-0 in a Sunday London derby. However, the victory came at an injury cost, as four players are now doubtful for the next match. William Saliba (unspecified issue) did not return for the second half while Declan Rice (ankle) and Riccardo Calafiori (knock) had to […] The post Arsenal Team News vs Brighton: William Saliba, Declan Rice, Gabriel Martinelli, Riccardo Calafiori appeared first on The Sports Bank .
While the Las Vegas Raiders were on a bye during Week 8, let’s check in on a few old friends: Josh Jacobs, Keisean Nixon and Robert Spillane, and see how they performed on Sunday. Josh Jacobs Surprisingly, Jacobs wasn’t the Packers’ leading rusher. Emmanuel Wilson had 11 carries for 61 yards to nearly double up […]
The Minnesota Vikings placed quarterback Carson Wentz on the injured reserve on Monday, due to a shoulder surgery that will end his 2025 campaign. Without Wentz, the 3-4 Vikings are left with just J.J. McCarthy, who is coming off “an ankle injury,” and undrafted rookie Max Brosmer at the position. With the open roster spot […]
Only four teams are undefeated after the first six days of the NBA season: The Oklahoma City Thunder, San Antonio Spurs, Philadelphia 76ers, and the Chicago Bulls. One is the defending NBA champions. One has a player like we’ve never seen before. One has a former MVP. And the other has a slightly above-average starting point guard! I think most would say the Chicago Bulls have had a surprising start to the 2025-26 season. Facing off against two projected playoff teams with former No. 1 pi...
The Buffalo Bills received bad news regarding defensive tackle Ed Oliver’s injury. Oliver is expected to miss significant time, with head coach Sean McDermott stating the torn biceps will require surgery. As of publishing, Oliver has not been placed on Injured Reserve, but McDermott said that he will be “out indefinitely” per Bills reporter Sal […]
The bye week is always an opportunity for an NFL team to self-scout, finding ways they’ve been predictable or underwhelming in several aspects of the game. While Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell sent the coaching staff home early last week (with some homework), he even admitted that he wasn’t fully out of work mode when […]
Indiana football head coach Curt Cignetti addressed the media during his usual weekly press conference on Monday following the Hoosiers’ 56-6 win over UCLA and ahead of their matchup at Maryland next Saturday. Here’s what he had to say: CIGNETTI: A 3:30 homecoming game. Good football team. Coach Locksley and his staff have done a […]
There has been an interesting phenomenon that has stretched all the way from articles, to social media, to the comments on my podcast: Some Wisconsin Badgers fans are back on the Fick Train seemingly because of a closer-than-expected 21-7 loss in the wind and rain against the No. 6 Oregon Ducks. While I was impressed with the […]

Colts Trade Deadline – Booger in 2006 might be blueprint! IU’s Aiden Fisher PROBABLE! Pacers wounded!
From day one of Captain Skates in early September, the Oilers talked about their goal of getting off to a good start. It hasn’t happened. The team went 4-4-2 and sits tied for 10th in the Western Conference. It’s not an awful start, but it isn’t close to a good start either. Edmonton had one…
Arizona got a much needed week off after back-to-back heartbreaking losses to BYU and Houston, teams that have kept on winning and are a combined 15-1 this season. The focus has fully shifted to this week’s opponent, Colorado, but during the bye the lingering effects of those previous games was still being felt. “They’re pissed […]
Welcome to Monday evening, folks! The last one in October, too. November looms. Get your cranberry sauce in order. Anyways, the Bruins will both start and end a brief road trip tonight with a match-up against the Senators. I don’t know if it’s even a road trip if it’s just one game. Maybe a road […]
