The San Francisco 49ers are just one day away from the first round of what should be a very interesting 2026 NFL Draft. Without as many usual blue-chip prospects in this class, insiders and evaluators are treating the draft differently this year, considering three of the best prospects in the class play off-ball linebacker, safety, […]
Just three games for the San Francisco Giants Minor League Baseball affiliates on Tuesday, as AAA Sacramento once again saw their game postponed due to poor weather. It’s already the fifth time this year that the River Cats have lost a game due to rain, and they’ll try to get it back on Saturday with […]
The 49ers’ secondary has some questions heading into 2026. Not so much the cornerbacks as Renardo Green, Deommodore Lenoir, and slot corner Upton Stout are all but set for the season. The two safety spots manned by Ji’Ayir Brown and Malik Mustapha are where the questions begin and end. Mustapha returned from his ACL injury […]
Having won the first two games of this series against the Seattle Mariners, the first-place Athletics enter this afternoon’s matchup at T-Mobile Park seeking to complete the series sweep and extend their road winning streak to eight games.

The back-to-back NL MVP has three starts on the year, completing exactly six innings in each of them […]
We’re a day away from the NFL Draft. The San Francisco 49ers are in a position where they’ll need to be open to selecting a player they don’t view as a “need.” When you’re selecting at the end of the 1st round, anything is possible. In fact, it’s more likely there will be a wrench […]
NFL Insiders are doing their best to tell us which teams are leaning in certain directions a day ahead of the NFL Draft. But when we’re talking about the San Francisco 49ers picking at No. 27, endless scenarios exist. All it takes is one team to trade up, and that’ll ruin most mock drafts and […]
The A’s announced on Wednesday afternoon mere hours before their series finale against the Mariners that they were placing center fielder Denzel Clarke on the IL with a right foot bone bruise, with fellow outfielder Colby Thomas taking his spot: It’s a disappointing development for Clarke, who has gotten off to a brutal start at […]
We’ve been getting a late push from national reporters saying the San Francisco 49ers are looking to trade out with their eyes on an offensive lineman. History has proven that this regime drafts for need rather than for the future. Trent Williams will be around for a couple of more seasons. That decision to extend […]
The past couple of days, we’ve looked at the possibility of the San Francisco 49ers addressing either side of the trenches with its first pick of Thursday’s NFL Draft. Let’s repeat the same exercise at a position that isn’t necessarily a need for 2026, but it wouldn’t hurt the 49ers to add to this position, […]
Happy Wednesday A’s fans! Today the team vies for the sweep against the Seattle Mariners, aiming to extend its road winning streak to eight games.

Good morning everyone! The Mariners fell yet again to the A’s last night, dropping the contest 6-2 as the offense struggles to find its footing. Where is your level of concern as we enter the late stages of April? Do you still think the team can turn it around and return to the caliber of […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The San Francisco Giants are back in action at Oracle Park this week. I’m actually going to be attending a game this weekend, too. And I will be taking one of my best friends to her very first game at Oracle Park. So that got me thinking about what the most […]

The San Francisco Giants have not developed a reputation for intelligence early this season, but on Tuesday they did something very, very smart. They jumped on Yoshinobu Yamamoto early. You’re familiar with Yamamoto. You hoped he was as good as everyone said he was when the Giants appeared determined to not be outbid for his […]
