Aaron Watson has yet to throw a competitive pitch as a professional, but his big frame and big potential was good enough for the Cincinnati Reds to use their 2nd round pick in the 2025 MLB Draft to select him out of high school in Florida – and it was good enough to land him […]

Today’s question: Which trade, in Jays history, still bothers you the most? Well, the question was supposed to be “Is this team actually trying to contend or are they just pretending?“ but I didn’t think that would give us much to talk about. This is an easy one for me, the trade that still pisses […]

With the Super Bowl tonight, I got to thinking. Which Washington Nationals players could be NFL players? There are a lot of really good athletes on this team, so I had plenty of options. However, I settled on four players. Three of them are currently in the organization, while one is no longer with the […]

Good morning, folks… It is a quiet morning on the baseball front. Former major leaguer Terrance Gore passed away at age 34 due to complications from surgery. There’s a football game happening this evening, I think. I could be wrong, it hasn’t gotten much publicity. David Laurila has his Sunday Notes column up at Fangraphs.

Last December, we took a look back at Jared Young’s 2025. It was an uneven affair, particularly at the major league level, but much of what made him an exciting minor league signing remained true.

With the trade of Brendan Donovan, who it looked like […]
