Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our bi-weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.

BROOKLYN — The Celtics could be without multiple starters when they face the Brooklyn Nets on Friday night. Derrick White (rest) has already been ruled out, and Neemias Queta was a Friday morning addition, listed as questionable to play as he deals with a non-COVID illness. In addition, Josh Minott (left ankle sprain) continues to […]
There is one player on the New York Rangers who is seemingly good as gone, and that's Artemi Panarin. While he has control over where he goes and will very likely be choosing a team with a chance to hoist the Stanley Cup, it will also likely reduce his return because of this. Panarin is in the final year of his deal at $11.6 million AAV and has 19 goals and 56 points in 50 games. The 34-year-old has been one of the best offensive players over the last decade and hasn't been able to win the Cup...

Joined by Skates at the Stakes’ AJ DeVito, we remember defenseman Robin Salo, who never seemed to get a real chance with the Islanders and then disappeared without a trace. Many sports fans have their favorite “pet prospects” that they root for to make it in the pros. Not only does AJ count Robin Salo […]
In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, Jeremy “Hokius” Greco breaks down one of the most intriguing moves of the MLB offseason: the New York Mets’ trade for Freddy Peralta. Using the Mets and Brewers as case studies, Jeremy examines how aggressive roster building contrasts with the growing risk aversion among mid-tier teams—including the […]
Will Watson inherited athletic genes from his father, Brad, who played football for Puget Sound University, and baseball skill from his stepfather, Pat, who played baseball at Pacific Lutheran University. He attended Burlington Edison High School in Burlington, Washington, where he played varsity baseball for three seasons, as well as basketball and cross-country track. He […]
The Yankees of the mid-2000s were a team that had grown long in the tooth, particularly in the rotation. A team already leaning heavy on veterans: namely Mike Mussina, well into his thirties, and Randy Johnson, who had already blown out 40 candles. Ahead of the 2007 season, Johnson returned to Arizona, but the Yankees […]

The Jets are searching for a new defensive coordinator. The team announced candidates for the job a week ago. One of those candidates, Mathieu Araujo, is off the market. He was hired as the defensive coordinator of the Jacksonville Jaguars this week. How do the other seven candidates rate? Here are my thoughts. The Best […]
The New York Rangers have had another poor season and as they're three games under .500 and falling quickly out of contention for a playoff spot, they are ready to retool. That could mean a lot of players are on their way out, including a couple of defensemen in Braden Schneider and Carson Soucy. David Pagnotta said, "Braden Schneider and Carson Soucy are believed to be trade candidates for the Rangers." While Vladislav Gavrikov and Adam Fox aren't expected to be going anywhere, the rest could...
The Islanders have emptied their suitcases, reacquainted themselves with family and hopefully got a good nap in as they returned from an epic but so-so seven-game road trip out west. They’ve got seven games left before the Olympic break, all fairly local (trips to D.C. and Philly are as far as they go), and the […]
It’s no secret that the Mets were looking for rotation help this winter. Mets’ starters posted a 4.13 ERA and a 3.95 FIP last season, which doesn’t look so terrible on the surface until you zoom into the latter half of the year. After June 13 (the day after Kodai Senga suffered the injury that […]

Wednesday was quite a baseball day in New York. The Yankees signed Cody Bellinger back to their squad for $162 million, and the Mets acquired Freddy Peralta from the Brewers in exchange for prospects Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat. This has ramifications for the Red Sox on a few fronts: First, the deal for Bellinger […]

Baseball, in many cases, can serve as a very effective microcosm for the world and the country it inhabits. From social progression, justice, or the dawn of the information age, baseball has often travelled right along with the world surrounding it. Looking back, that means we can find stories that are nearly impossible to imagine […]
Meet the Mets The Mets made yet another move yesterday, albeit a relatively minor one, as they acquired former top prospect Vidal Bruján from the Twins for cash considerations and designated left-handed reliever Richard Lovelady for assignment. Deesha Thosar writes that the Mets saved their offseason with a pivotal week. Fellow executives see the Mets’ […]
