Trey Yesavage is a 22-year-old, right-handed pitcher. He was our first round draft pick (20th overall) in 2024. Trey got a $4,177,500 signing bonus (I’m trying to figure out how many beers I can get at the club at happy hour with 4.2 million, but let’s just say a lot. Of course, I would have […]

Has anyone else struggled to keep up with the spring training Yankees during the World Baseball Classic, or is it just me? There’s been some thrilling action across all four pools through Wednesday night, culminating in Italy, Canada, and the Dominican Republic’s pool-clinching victories yesterday, and allowing Mark DeRosa’s blunder to be forgiven as the […]
Is it on TV? Yes, thank Pedro. In a week when there has barely been any televised Red Sox baseball, this one is on NESN at 1:05 PM. That’s especially fortuitous since there’s no World Baseball Classic action today. What’s the lineup? What should we watch for? It’s all about Connelly Early today. With exactly […]
Here are the lineups, let’s discuss! For the Phillies: For the Blue Jays:
With the World Baseball Classic beginning quarterfinal play on Friday, let’s look back to see how all the Dodgers did during pool play in the tournament. Five Dodgers on the 40-man roster played during the opening round, as well as two minor leaguers. In all, nine Dodgers were active in the WBC, representing seven countries. […]

The majority of the core that won the 2023 World Series is still present on the Rangers roster three years later. The unrelenting passage of time and the fragile nature of the human body has meant that, even though many of the names are the same, the talent level on this roster is much less […]
There are only two weeks and a day left until the regular season starts and the prospective Atlanta Braves Opening Day roster is coming into focus — for better and for worse. Less than two weeks after the last roster projection, two more shoes dropped, adding more consternation to Opening Day roster. First, it was […]
The WBC is tightening up as more teams are eliminated. Yesterday’s big game featured Italy demolishing Mexico 9-1, tossing all concerns about tiebreaker scenarios involving Team USA out the window. Italy has all the momentum of a runaway train right now. Meanwhile, Team Canada defeated Cuba to earn their first-ever berth in the quarterfinals in […]

Erling Haaland’s Rafael Pimienta has spoken out about the Manchester City striker’s future after Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font claimed he was trying to secure a buy option on the Norway star. As expected, Pimienta has given the talk short shrift, insisting Haaland is perfectly happy where he is and that there’s been no contact […]
Batting Average on Balls in Play is a stat that’s about as objective mathematically as can be. The fine folks at FanGraphs provide this concise explanation of the metric. The basics are this: when a batter puts a bat on the ball and it ends up in the field of play, how often does said […]
You certainly won’t complain about two World Championships since 2017, but it feels like for the villain status the Houston Astros have accrued since that time that they would have more. The Dodgers may have eclipsed the Astros in 2025 as the chief bad guys of MLB, but I’ll always appreciate that Houston seemed to […]
With the 2025 Texas Rangers season having come to an end, we shall be, over the course of the offseason, taking a look at every player who appeared in a major league game for the Texas Rangers in 2025. Today we are looking at shortstop Corey Seager. Corey Seager had a great season for the […]
We have reached the endgame, friends. This will be the week where the cuts are made, where some options are picked up, where some decisions are made and the Phillies’ initial roster of 2026 is created. Some of these possibly logjams have been taken care of already thanks to decisions to ingest things against the […]
Let’s just get this right out of the way right out of the gate: As long as all five Opening Day starters don’t hit the 60-Day IL at some point during this season like they did during the 2025 season, this rotation should be fine and will be improved over what we saw last season. […]
The North Carolina Tar Heels take the court in the ACC Tournament for the first time tonight at 9:30 PM. Carolina takes on fellow charter ACC member Clemson in the quarterfinals. Last night, Clemson earned the 71-62 victory over Wake Forest. UNC defeated Clemson just nine days ago. As each team finished with the same […]
At this time last year, Brad Lord was one of the biggest stories of Nationals Spring Training. After working at Home Depot in the offseason, the former 18th round pick pitched his way on to the Nationals roster. Following a solid rookie season, Lord is flying much more under the radar. He is a lock […]
For various reasons, mostly to do with Duane’s continued poor health and the dismal state of the healthcare industry, he needs to step away from the virtual office and daily duties. And so, we are looking for a front page writer to take over Cub Tracks and Chicago Cubs/Baseball history unpacked. We are hoping that […]
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Tuesday night was fascinating for me as a sports fan. I started my night by watching my college’s depressingly bad basketball team lose to Northwestern to end its season in the Big Ten tournament, then switched the channel to watch Team USA lose in embarrassing fashion to Italy in the World Baseball Classic. At the […]
