Latest blog entries from New York teams across every league
I promise this is the last time for a while I’ll write about Cody Bellinger, but he really is a good use case for a particular proposal that I’ve been considering. All the way back in December, we knew the Yankees had offered the former MVP a five-year deal worth around $150 million dollars, and […]
We’re less than one week away from the NHL’s pre-Olympic trade freeze, which means there’s a lot of trade buzz around the NHL. But trades aren’t the only pieces of news around the league right now that are worth considering. Patrick Kane had a huge moment on Tuesday. The Canucks’ sprint to the bottom of the standings got another accelerant. The New York Islanders went shopping — in their own market. And the blue line continues to make news, both via trade rumors and a couple notable exten...
Over the next few months, we’ll be taking an in-depth look at some of the late season signings who are under contract for 2026, and futures signings after the end of the season. We continue today with edge defender Paschal Ekeji, who was added to the practice squad late last year and signed a futures […]
The Colorado Rockies announced they have agreed to a deal with the New York Yankees, sending right-handed reliever Angel Chivilli to the Bronx in exchange for minor league first baseman T.J. RumField. Chivilli, 23, looked like he could be a staple of a fresh Rockies bullpen when he debuted with the team in 2024. After […]
The Jets’ search for a new defensive coordinator is over. The team is hiring Brian Duker per Tom Pelissero. The 36 year old Duker worked under Glenn with the Lions for three years. He went from defensive assistant in 2021 to safeties coach in 2022 to defensive backs coach in 2023. The last two years […]
“Shorty you’re my Angel, you’re my darling Angel” No doubt somewhere in the Bronx or Tampa, Matt Blake is quietly singing Shaggy’s popular refrain to himself while watching video. YES Network’s Jack Curry reported that the Yankees landed Angel Chivilli, a right-handed reliever, from the Colorado Rockies, sending Triple-A first baseman T.J. Rumfield in return […]
From mid-December until just last week, the Knicks played the worst stretch of basketball they’ve played since 2022. So naturally, it’ll take more than a three-game winning streak, with two of the wins coming against the Nets and Kings, to win back the trust of the fanbase and the belief of the national media. But […]
By the mid-to-late-2000s, it was readily apparent the dynasty years were over. The Yankees hadn’t reached a World Series since 2003. Perhaps worse, they’d allowed the Red Sox to break The Curse, with one of sport’s wildest combacks in the ALCS That Shall Not Be Talked About. Despite those setbacks, however, the Yankees continued to […]
With the hiring of a new general manager — Jon-Eric Sullivan — and new head coach — Jeff Hafley — the Miami Dolphins are in the midst of a major staffing overhaul. While that means new faces are appearing in Miami Gardens, that also means familiar faces will be departing. On Wednesday morning, it was […]
A multi-sport athlete who also played football as well as baseball at Springboro High School in Springboro Ohio, Andrew Joseph “A.J.” Ewing really stood out on the diamond. A natural right-hander whose father had him learn how to swing from the left side as a kid, Ewing quickly began standing out not just as compared […]
Like any number of baseball nerds across the globe, Amazin’ Avenue Managing Editor Chris McShane and I often play Immaculate Grid. We try to top each other’s rarity score and we, as you might expect, only allow ourselves to use Mets and former Mets. The best players to use are the ones who either logged […]
These are the Knicks, so obviously they lost a thousand games only so they could then win another thousand straight. Best of all (for us fans)? It’s the second leg of a home-road back-to-back, so we get to enjoy New York Basketball once again today! Here’s what was said after the third consecutive dub. Mike […]
Time to add another name to the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive coordinator search: Denver Broncos offensive pass game coordinator/quarterbacks coach Davis Webb. The Eagles, New York Giants, and Baltimore Ravens have all requested to interview him for their OC openings, according to a report from NFL insider Adam Schefter. It doesn’t seem like Webb is realistically […]
If I were to name every championship team from Yankee history and ask you to name some players from that year, any fan worth their salt could probably get at least a couple. The lore of the likes of Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, and plenty others is large enough that their […]
For starters, let me preface this by saying that much of what follows is conjecture. In all my years following this team, I can’t remember a time with this level of secrecy and confusion. It genuinely feels like no one outside the Jets’ day-to-day operations has any real idea what’s going on. We’ve seen beat […]

With trade chatter heating up fast, Media Bytes breaks down the latest on Panarin’s sweepstakes, Minnesota’s interest in Trocheck, and the growing vitriol for J.T. Miller.
Early in the Eagles’ search for a new OC, it was reported that the team considered Brian Daboll one of their top candidates. The former Giants head coach has worked with Nick Sirianni, and had coached Jalen Hurts at Alabama, plus he’s a veteran play-caller. Shortly after he interviewed for the Eagles offensive coordinator position, […]
Meet the Mets Ben Clemens at FanGraphs wrote about the Mets fantastic offseason to this point. MLB.com writer Mark Feinsand listed seven teams that won the offseason, and one of them is the new-look Mets. David Adler put together a list of 10 players who could be this year’s versions of last year’s breakout stars, […]
The Rising Stars Challenge draft took place on Tuesday and the top picks spoke volumes: Carmelo Anthony took Cooper Flagg #1 while Tracy McGrady selected Kon Knueppel #2. Unable to pick a Dukie, Vince Carter had to settle for VJ Edgecombe. You can see the full teams here. The teams will compete with a G-League […]
Things change quickly in the NBA. Just over a week ago, the Toronto Raptors started their five-game road trip by conceding 25 points and 13 rebounds to DeAndre Ayton in a 110-93 defeat to the Los Angeles Lakers. It was Toronto’s fourth loss in six games and considering the franchise’s history with west coast trips, […]
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
If you arrived from the future to tell Yankees fans after the team’s embarrassing elimination in the ALDS last October that the only major external acquisition the team made was Ryan Weathers, you’d probably be burned at the stake. It seemed inconceivable after the team regressed from a more competitive-than-it-appeared World Series defeat to getting […]
For all of us wondering if Islanders GM Mathieu Darche was going to invest in his currently-playoff-position team or commence with a selloff, the last two days gave us a clear answer. The first-year GM is not going big-game hunting, but he is managing assets (and spending a little cap space) to bring in veteran […]
Here are your links for today: Devils Links A trade! John MacLean to the New Jersey Devils Ring of Honor: The Jets scored three second-period goals, and the Devils made a push to get things tied but couldn’t find the equalizer and dropped Tuesday’s game, 4-3. [Devils NHL] A look at how the addition of […]
