Who will return kicks and punts for the 49ers in 2026?

It does not appear that the San Francisco 49ers are bringing back their returners from 2025. Once Skyy Moore was brought into the fold and the team realized Isaac Guerendo wasn’t the answer, Brian Robinson Jr. began to return kicks. Moore finished 15th in kickoff return average and 10th in punt return average. He had […]

Sean Manaea looks to bounce back in 2026

Had we written about Sean Manaea’s upcoming season earlier in spring training, the premise would’ve been a bit more straightforward. Coming off a season that saw him spend more time on the injured list than on the mound, Manaea would be looking to be healthy and bounce back from a 2025 season that saw him […]

Why are there still Opening Night tickets available when there are new food options at Oracle Park?

Are Giants fans okay? I’m compelled to ask because of the last line in Susan Slusser’s report from Thursday about San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds joining the Netflix stream for Opening Night this coming Wednesday (which Steven discusses in more detail here). It goes, “Tickets remain available at the Oracle Park box office and […]

Monday Morning Fly By: California dreamin’

*Your Philadelphia Flyers took a road trip to California and absolutely killed it? Against all odds? They wrapped things up on Saturday by taking it to the San Jose Sharks for a full 60; RECAP ! *Particularly good game for Travis Konecny, as evidenced by the fact that Sharks players were whining about him after the game had ended. [ BSH ] *Going back to that win in L.A. over the Kings, Matvei Michkov absolutely rocked in that game. You love to see it. [ BSH ] *But yeah this was ...

Golden Nuggets: Another Monday without 49ers football

Explosive playmaker falls to 49ers in 7-round 2026 NFL mock draft“I’m truly fascinated by where San Francisco would turn here,” Randall wrote. “Do they opt for other pass-catchers in the form of receivers Omar Cooper Jr., KC Concepcion, or Denzel Boston? Or maybe it’s an offensive tackle in the form of Blake Miller or Max […]

A’s beat Brewers in Spring Breakout!

The Brewers were able to kick things off pretty early against touted lefty Jamie Arnold. Luis Pena singled to score Brewers top prospect Jesus Made. Blake Burke’s single made it 2-0 and a third run would be tacked on against Arnold via passed ball. In the bottom of the 2nd, the A’s tied it right […]

3 Offseason Trade Destinations for Rangers' Braden Schneider

New York Rangers defenseman Braden Schneider will be a trade candidate to watch during the offseason. With the Rangers retooling, Schneider stands out as a prime trade chip for them to dangle.  Because of this, let's look at three teams that could look to acquire Schneider this offseason. San Jose Sharks  The Sharks were heavily linked to Schneider leading up to the 2026 NHL trade deadline, and it is easy to understand why.

Flyers’ Travis Konecny gets called ‘a dirty player’ by Sharks defenseman

Philadelphia Flyers winger Travis Konecny rubs a whole lot of people the wrong way, and now it has led to some name-calling by a San Jose Sharks defenseman. During the 4-1 win in San Jose, Konecny was just playing his game. While being one of the more offensively charged forwards in the Flyers lineup, he was also jawing at opponents, getting involved in the post-whistle scrums, and just being a general nuisance. All 5-foot-10 of him was, and has always been, committed to creating a whole ...

Remembering Larry Stahl

The name Larry Stahl won’t ring with any younger baseball fans, but older fans will remember Stahl for a couple of key events in Kansas City and baseball history.  The Kansas City Athletics signed the 19-year-old Stahl as a free agent shortly after his high school graduation. He spent the first four seasons of his […]

Clutch Opportunities—The Week in Green

The Celtics went 4-0 since my last column, notching a solid win over the Warriors, and some uneven performances against the Wizards, Suns, and Grizzlies. The negative way of looking at this is that the C’s really shouldn’t have struggled against the Grizzlies (24-45), and probably shouldn’t have had such a hard time with the […]

49ers News: 25 more Sundays until NFL football is back

49ers schedule visit with KC Concepcion, first-round wide receiver prospect (paywall)“Listed at 5-foot-11 and 190 pounds, Concepcion showcased elite speed and separation ability during his college career. His main flaw was drops. He dropped seven passes a season ago and 19 total across his stints at NC State and Texas A&M. While the 49ers recently […]

Giants sign reliever Ryan Borucki 4 days before Opening Day

It’s been an offseason of unexpected moves for the San Francisco Giants. No one expected them to pursue Luis Arráez as the answer to their second base conundrum, and adding a catcher (Daniel Susac) in the Rule 5 Draft wasn’t an obvious move. They addressed their rotation, as was necessary, but not the way that […]
