Wednesday BP: What’s the best Giants present you’ve received?

Good morning, baseball fans! And Merry Christmas Eve to those who celebrate! Today, I thought we could all share the best San Francisco Giants presents that we’ve received over the years. For some reason, I don’t tend to get given Giants related gifts despite, you know…writing about the team. But I do have a couple […]

Browns head coach search: Ranking the 8 available jobs

The Cleveland Browns are said to be the Arizona Cardinals without palm trees. Of course, that is meant to be mean. But when your roster doesn’t win and remains on the sidelines, rooting for NFL draft positioning, while each year’s playoffs get rolling, insults are going to be a part of life. Browns’ fans are […]

Dodgers claim Ryan Fitzgerald off waivers from Twins

The Dodgers added some infield depth on Friday by claiming Ryan Fitzgerald from the Minnesota Twins. He was designated for assignment by the Twins on January 2 when Minnesota traded for first baseman Eric Wagaman. Fitzgerald after seven seasons in the minors made his major league debut for the Twins, playing in 24 games, including […]

With decision makers from all 30 teams housed under one roof until Wednesday, there’s the potential for a […]

Orioles news: Tyler O’Neill opts in to rest of contract

Tyler O’Neill will officially be hanging around on the Orioles, or at least on the Orioles payroll, for another two years. The Baltimore Banner’s Andy Kostka reported on Monday afternoon that O’Neill has declined to exercise the opt-out in his contract, so he will stick around and make another $16.5 million per year for the […]

Yankees 2025 Roster Report Cards: Paul Goldschmidt

Since Mark Teixeira retired at the end of the 2016 season, the New York Yankees have tried — and failed — to find a long term first baseman. Despite a promising cup of coffee in 2015, Greg Bird was beset by injuries and was out of the picture completely after 2019. Luke Voit took the […]

Top 25 Mets Prospects for 2026: Brandon Sproat (5)

On January 21, 2026, Brandon Sproat was traded to the Milwaukee Brewers. This list, and Sproat’s place on it, was compiled back in late-November. For continuity’s sake, I decided upon including Sproat’s profile, but for all intents and purposes, every player on our list below Sproat can be considered to have moved up a spot […]

The most important Brewer you aren’t talking about: Jared Koenig

When Brewers fans talk about the bullpen, names like Trevor Megill or Abner Uribe usually dominate the conversation. That makes sense. Closers and flamethrowers tend to get the attention. But one of the most important arms in Milwaukee’s bullpen is not the one finishing games or lighting up the radar gun. It is Jared Koenig, […]

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. The idiot that said, “Harper is coming” asks: Now that Bellinger is officially back, what’s next? A) Nothing of note. B) […]

40 in 40: Leo Rivas, what are you Brewing

The Milwaukee Brewers play big. The zythophilian juggernauts of the NL Central have the same number of division titles as the Dodgers over the past half decade. They’ve been punching down on the incompetent and/or uncompetitive clubs in their division, while managing to outmaneuver the Chicago Cubs, and pushing the St. Louis Cardinals into their […]

Baseball America just announced their top 100 prospects in baseball heading into the 2026 season. Let’s take a look at which Brewers prospects made the cut: 4. SS Jesus Made I’ve written about Made a lot over the last year (and this offseason), so there isn’t a lot to say about him that hasn’t already […]

Mets get Vidal Bruján in trade with Twins, designate Richard Lovelady for assignment

The Mets have acquired utility player Vidal Bruján from the Twins for cash considerations, and to make room for him on their 40-man roster, they’ve also designated left-handed pitcher Richard Lovelady for assignment. Entering his age-28 season, Bruján has struggled pretty mightily at the plate in his major league career despite having been a consensus […]

Meet the Mets The Mets acquired Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from the Brewers in exchange for Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams. Peralta is the ace the team had been missing and might be the final piece in a busy offseason. Bo Bichette was formally introduced at Citi Field, and he is confident he can […]

Braves News: Andruw Jones, offseason options dwindling, more

Well options are beginning to dwindle for the Braves to add another impact player this offseason.
