Shough recorded the highest completion percentage among […]
The Nuggets lost to the Knicks in double OT. Can we get these two behemoths going at each other for seven games in June’s Finals already? Here’s some of what was said after yesterday’s seventh-straight dub. Mike Brown On Jalen Brunson’s MVP-level performance against Denver: “That’s what an MVP candidate does. On a big stage, […]
It’s been a little over a year since the Mets claimed right-handed relief pitcher Austin Warren off waivers from the Giants, and with today being Warren’s 30th birthday, it seems like as good a time as any to take a look at what might be in store for him in 2026. Taken by the Angels […]
Almost a century before Derek Jeter manned shortstop and held the captaincy for the New York Yankees, another athletic young player did the same. Roger Peckinpaugh, who came to the Yankees at the age of 20, never experienced the level of team success that Jeter did, nor could he boast a similar offensive profile. But […]
The Matchup: The New Jersey Devils (28-26-2) versus the New York Islanders (31-21-5) The Time: 7:00 PM EST The Broadcast: TV — MSGSN, Radio — Devils Hockey Network Reinforcements? Yesterday afternoon, the New Jersey Devils acquired Nick Bjugstad from the St. Louis Blues for AHLer Thomas Bordeleau and a fourth-round pick (expected to be the […]
Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we begin by expressing excitement that we officially have videos of pitchers throwing, which is the only thing […]
From a skyscraper climb to draft-pick math and cap-hit reality, the Ombudsman is back to clean up another week of Blueshirt Bandwidth.
Meet the Mets Newest Met Freddy Peralta is already in camp and said he will not pitch for the Dominican Republic in the upcoming World Baseball Classic. Nolan McLean also reported early and is looking forward to his first big league camp. Spring training officially starts next week and Anthony DiComo wrote an handy guide […]
Your morning round-up of the latest from Blueshirt Banter, Rangers News, and updates from around the NHL
Giancarlo Stanton sits 47 home runs away from 500 for his career, that nice round number that counts for quite a bit in Hall of Fame discussion. It does feel like that chase will come right down to the wire, with Stanton’s contract running through the 2027 season but with some kind of labor stoppage […]
This post is part of a series of daily questions that we’ll ask the community here at Amazin’ Avenue throughout the month of February.

The New York Jets officially ended the soul searching portion of their offseason today, announcing the hire of Frank Reich as their new offensive coordinator. In a move that feels both like a safe veteran play and a massive gamble, Head Coach Aaron Glenn has effectively handed Reich the keys to the kingdom. Glenn made […]
The Artemi Panarin trade didn’t just come down to cap math and a no-move clause. It came down to who the New York Rangers wanted back. Multiple reports indicate New York took a big swing in talks with the San Jose Sharks and Washington Capitals , pushing for elite young pieces before ultimately pivoting to a deal with the Los Angeles Kings right before the Olympic trade freeze. Artemi Panarin trade talks hit a wall with Will Smith and Ryan Leonard The Rangers’ stance was that if a ...
Good morning Gang Green Nation! The New York Jets made two key hires yesterday. They brought in Frank Reich as offensive coordinator and Karl Dunbar as defensive line coach. Given the current drawbacks to signing on with the Jets, these hirings likely represent the best scenario a Jets fan could reasonably hope for. Dunbar in […]
We have a trade! Leon Rose might not have had the midseason blockbuster up his sleeve (OG Anunoby) or added an impact bench player (Derrick Rose, Josh Hart), but he almost always makes a move. In his six seasons now as Knicks president of basketball operations, he has made a midseason move in all six: […]
So, the Yankees are running it back 2026. As frustrating as that will feel to many (cue the “getting Gerrit Cole back is like trading for an ace!” proclamations from Yankee brass), there is reason to be optimistic about the strategy. The team that they’re running went an MLB-best 32-12 down the stretch, and at […]
I don’t know nor care when the Olympics actually start (the men’s hockey games start in six days), but for our NHL-centric purposes they start tomorrow. Or rather, today is the last day before a long, cold break in the schedule, when we’ll just hope Bo Horvat and Ondrej Palat stay healthy while we hear […]
After a forgettable run in Chicago, Dalen Terry will have an opportunity for a career reset in the Big Apple. The Chicago Bulls have traded the former Arizona Wildcats guard to the New York Knicks, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Wednesday night. The Bulls received Guerschon Yabusele in return. Terry has appeared in 34 games this […]
MLB.com | Brian Murphy: The Yankees have a very similar team to the one that they ran in 2025, meaning that they have to be confident that they’ll see improvement in at least a few key areas to get them over the hump. They’re got a few candidates to step up, including ones that began […]
Tonight’s matchup at Madison Square Garden was destined to be a bruiser. Both teams played last night—the Knicks (32*-18) in a rout of Washington and Denver in a gutsy loss to Detroit. New York was riding a seven-game win streak. The Nuggets (33-18) had lost two in a row, but boast the league’s best offensive […]
This one was long and action-packed, so let’s just get to it. 1st Quarter The Knicks got off to a blistering start from three,…
The post Recap: Nuggets battle but fall in 2OT thriller appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
Earlier today, the New Jersey Devils announced that, prior to the NHL roster freeze for the 2026 Olympics, they acquired center Nick Bjugstad from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for Thomas Bordeleau and one of their two 2026 fourth-round picks (Dallas or Winnipeg), whichever is later (Dallas). My initial thought was: well, this would […]
Who is he and where did he come from? He’s Isiah Kiner-Falefa. The former Ranger also spent time with the Yankees before signing a 2-year, $15 million deal with the Blue Jays in 2024, who then traded him to the Pirates at that year’s trade deadline, only to take him back a year later after […]
The New York Knicks (32*-18) host the Denver Nuggets (33-18) tonight at Madison Square Garden. This game pits the second-place team in the East against the third-place team in the West for a potential playoff preview. Intrigued? During their current (…not five…not six…) seven-game winning streak, New York has clamped down at both ends of […]
The Los Angeles Kings have won the Artemi Panarin sweepstakes, but they certainly weren't the only team with interest in the scoring winger. Reports have surfaced stating the Washington Capitals were extremely interested in adding Panarin ahead of the Olympic roster freeze, and were willing to give him a contract extension to stick around. Panarin's agent made it known to New York Rangers' GM Chris Drury that his client was only interested in heading to Los Angeles not long ago, taking out the...
