Joe Morgan goes 6-for-6 at the plate

Joe Morgan goes 6-for-6 at the plate kkundahl Wed, 2026-07-08 10:54 A record-tying performance during his first full season proved “Little Joe” could produce in big ways.

The Season That Was: George Springer

2024 was George Springer’s fourth season with the Blue Jays, after signing a six-year $150 million contract. And, ummm, it wasn’t a very good season. Since 2022 his bWAR had been falling, from 4.2 to 2.0 to 1.1. I’m probably wasn’t alone in thinking that he was aging out of where he could be a […]

Flyers’ slow starts to games might be cause for concern

We’re close to the quarter-pole of the season, and already the Flyers are out of the gate a little bit better than some anticipated. It’s an extremely tight batch in the standings in the Eastern Conference, with a two-game winning streak possibly putting you into the top three of the Metropolitan. Or a two-game streak of regulation losses putting you near the cellar. Philadelphia has been good in some respects but needing to improve a lot in others. And while the Flyers are being praised for s...
