So the Craig Albernaz dreams died pretty quickly for the Washington Nationals. Just a day after it was reported that he interviewed for the job, Jeff Passan reported that he was taking the Baltimore Orioles job instead.

The Los Angeles Rams are tied for the best record in the NFC West with the Seattle Seahawks at 5-2, but they’re temporarily in a wild card spot as they approach midseason because L.A. has yet to win a conference game. However, if the Rams had tied the San Francisco 49ers two weeks ago, then […]

While the Las Vegas Raiders were on a bye during Week 8, they did get some help when it comes to their odds to get the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft. With the New York Jets pulling off a comeback against the Cincinnati Bengals, there are no more winless teams in […]
There are some persistent issues plaguing the Chicago Bears this season, but nothing more so than the penalties.

The Seattle Seahawks head into the bye week sitting at 5-2 — a record that looks impressive on paper, but one that leaves fans still searching for answers about what this team truly is.

Cody Bellinger was once a superstar; a Rookie of the Year-turned-MVP in his third season whose capabilities only seemed to be climbing higher and higher in LA.

It might be too early to consider a long-term contract for Cubs closer Daniel Palencia — and yes, I’m calling him “closer” because I have no doubt he’ll be back in that role in 2026.
