Palmer breaks new ground with second Cy Young Award
On November 4, 1975, Orioles ace Jim Palmer becomes the first American League pitcher to win two outright Cy Young Awards, following his 1973 triumph. He posted a career‑high 23 wins, 10 shutouts and a 2.09 ERA, outpacing runner‑up Catfish Hunter by 24 voting points. Despite a rough 1974 injury‑plagued season, Palmer rebounded with a dominant 1975, earning AL Player of the Month and a rare 12‑inning, two‑run no‑decision win. The Hall of Fame piece highlights his historic achievement and sets up his third Cy Young win in 1976.

Yankees should give Marco Luciano a real shot this spring
The Yankees have added prospect Marco Luciano to their 40‑man roster after he posted a .293/.387/.545 line with 27 homers, 78 RBIs and 64 walks across Double‑A and Triple‑A in 2026. While his minor‑league power and patience merit a serious spring‑training look, the article argues he needs real reps at second base and the outfield to prove his defense, rather than being used as a mere bench filler. With only 41 MLB games for San Francisco (a .217 average), the Yankees must decide whether to test Luciano for a roster spot or stick with a proven utility option.
#CardCorner: 1975 Topps Rowland Office
Rowland Office, the 1975 Topps rookie highlighted in the Hall of Fame’s #CardCorner series, logged a 29‑game hitting streak in 1976—the closest any of his 11‑year MLB career (Braves, Expos, Yankees) came to joining the 30‑game club. Drafted by Atlanta in the fourth round of 1970, Office debuted at 19, became the youngest player in the majors that season, and later backed up Dusty Baker while taking over for Hank Aaron after the legend’s record‑breaking 715th homer on April 8, 1974. He finished 1974 with a .246 average in 131 games and finished his career batting .259. The article traces his rise from high‑school star to its most memorable streak and includes a Topps card photo.

(Lucy Raskin/MLB) by Cary Osborne Andy Pages was the accidental hero in Game 4 of the 2025 National League Division Series. In Game 4 of the 2026 NLDS, he was simply the hero. Pages’ two-out, two-run single with the bases loaded in the seventh inning unlocked a tie score and gave the Dodgers the lead for good in Atlanta. The Dodgers’ 4–1 win on Wednesday has sent them back to the Natio...
St. Louis Cardinals Minor League Update: Upper Levels
Sadly, we have reached the last minor league update of the 2026 season. These are a bit time-consuming, so I suppose it’s not that sad for me, but it’s just another reminder that there’s no more baseball to follow. Technically, the AFL is there, but it doesn’t scratch the same itch. At least this year […]
Will The “Bama Breeze” Days And Nights In Tiger Stadium Turn? Saturday May Be New Beginning | Glenn Guilbeau

Angel Reese Credits Kim Mulkey’s Coaching as She Makes WNBA Prediction About LSU Star Mikaylah Williams
Angel Reese credits Kim Mulkey’s rigorous coaching for her smooth transition to the WNBA, noting how the former LSU star’s intense practices make pro life feel easier. Reese praised LSU’s historic 131-22 win over Texas Southern – the biggest margin in Division I history – and highlighted teammate Mikaylah Williams’ senior breakout, a 20-point, 6‑rebounds, 5‑assist performance that impressed her.

Friday roundup: Election day fallout for Blazers, Stars arena plans, Rays stadium
Election‑day results ripple through several stadium stories. Sen. Ron Wyden, soon to chair the Senate Finance Committee, tells NBA Board chair Micky Arison he’s interested in Portland’s Blazers arena deal, hinting at possible tax scrutiny if the team seeks a public‑funded move. In Texas, voters reject a tax surcharge for a $700 million Dallas Stars arena, sending the project back to the drawing board. Florida’s property‑tax cut thwarts Tampa Bay Rays’ plan to fund a new stadium via a mixed‑use district. Las Vegas A’s face a $200 million parking‑garage financing gap, while Indiana’s push for stadium aid may be a ploy to pressure Illinois for a Bears facility. Lastly, a Tourism Economics report inflates Jacksonville Jaguars’ $21.7 billion impact, a claim Jaguars owner Shahid Khan disputes, and a note links the Brewers’ World Series win to the Rays’ sea‑level park.
TomS’s A Very White Sox Overspend
PREAMBLE Maybe it is because I try to balance what I think the White Sox will do with what I think they should do, but my plan overspends but keeps the “flexibility” that Jerry loves more than winning itself. I think they are all defensible moves, however. I balance going for it in 2027, and…

Jonathan Taylor’s future with the Indianapolis Colts hangs in the balance as trade rumors swirl ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline. In a candid TikTok, his wife Ayanna describes the family's anxiety, questioning whether they must pack up and miss their daughter’s first Halloween.

Sources say owner Carlie Irsay‑Gordon still views Taylor as a rebuild cornerstone, yet interest from Giants, Vikings, Seahawks and others keeps his fate uncertain.
Kelly Stafford Rips Into NFL Over Scheduling Issue
Kelly Stafford, wife of Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, publicly criticizes the NFL’s schedule that leaves Los Angeles with essentially no true bye week. The Rams play on Thanksgiving Eve against the Packers after a Week 10 game on Nov. 25, then face the Chiefs on Thursday night, totaling 10 days of consecutive play. With a 4‑4 record and a grueling travel load of 34,847 miles, the team eyes upcoming matchups versus Washington and Arizona.

Plane Flies a “Fire Novell” Banner Over Florida State, and Dabo Swinney Says Whoever Did It “Ought to Be Ashamed”
A banner reading “FSU: Fire Novell + Peter Collins” flies over Doak Campbell Stadium before Florida State’s 36-24 loss to Clemson on Nov. 1, 2026. The typo misspells head coach Mike Norvell’s name, prompting a sharp rebuke from opposing coach Dabo Swinney, who calls the stunt disrespectful and “shameful.” The defeat drops FSU to 3-5 overall, 1-4 in the ACC, and raises speculation about Norvell’s sizable $51 million buyout. The incident underscores the intense pressure on the Seminoles’ coaching staff.
Tense Scene Erupt as Benches Clear After Pitcher Hits Baseball Pro on His Body
In a chaotic Venezuelan league clash on Oct. 31, 2026, Magallanes manager and ex‑MLB star Yadier Molina is ejected after a hit‑by‑pitch on Caribes batter Gabriel González sparks a bench‑clearing brawl that ends with Magallanes losing 5‑6. The incident highlights Molina’s volatile temperament, which has previously led to ejections and suspensions in MLB. Amid Magallanes’ struggles this season, his fiery reputation could affect MLB teams’ interest in him for future managerial roles, despite recent GM Randy Flores of the Astros reportedly eyeing former Cardinals legends for the job.
Rangers To Select Aidan Curry
The Texas Rangers add right‑hander Aidan Curry to their 40‑man roster, preventing his minor‑league free agency. Curry, a 6‑ft‑5, 205‑lb former New York high‑school starter, signed as an undrafted free agent in 2020 and has spent seven seasons in the minors. He posted a 4.93 ERA over 104 innings this year, striking out 29% of batters while walking 12.4%, prompting speculation he may shift to the bullpen. Ranked as high as the organization's 25th prospect earlier, Curry’s addition brings the Rangers to 37 players on the 40‑man list amid roster uncertainty.
