Alexander Usyk vs Deontay Wilder is a fight that early in the year was mentioned but then it was gone, now, it is back again. Wilder had a fight with Derek Chisora at heavyweight in the UK earlier this year and it was an entertaining scrap between two faded over the hill stars of boxing. […] The post Alexander Usyk vs Deontay Wilder Fight Resurrected appeared first on Boxing News and Views .
The St. Louis Cardinals will celebrate the 4th of July weekend against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field this weekend. The Cardinals archrivals are nearly as hot as the weather the past two weeks and it will present a challenging weekend for St. Louis to be successful. The last 10 games tell a completely opposite […]
It was an interesting poll this week, me asking you which player should get a contract extension first were the Phillies to offer someone one. Here are the results: That’s about as close to a 50/50 split as you can get. If we’re focusing in on Jhoan Duran, I see why the team would want […]
There’s really no way to sugarcoat the way the Yankees are playing right now. The offense is impotent, the starting pitching has been suspect, and the defense unacceptable. It’s all added up to a season-high seven-game losing streak and a plummeting from 3.5 games up in the standings to four games behind the Rays for […]
This is the third update of Mike Bianco’s off-season shopping and boy, has he done some shopping. As we know, the returning position players consist of Hayden Federico in the outfield, Owen Paino and Dom Decker in the middle infield and Austin Fawley (if he doesn’t get drafted) behind the dish. Trey Hawsey comes in […]

Conventional wisdom is telling the Minnesota Twins to sell at the trade deadline, but Tom Pohlad sees it differently for a couple reasons.
On Wednesday, Just Baseball released its American League and National League Players of the Month for June, and it should come as no surprise that the Tampa Bay Rays swept the AL honors. Third baseman Junior Caminero was named Just Baseball’s American League Player of the Month, while right-hander Drew Rasmussen earned American League Pitcher […] The post Drew Rasmussen Continues To Be MLB’s Most Underrated Starter appeared first on Just Baseball .
With their NL East hopes fading, Atlanta might be forced to turn to an arch rival for help at the deadline.
The Cubs are expected to select the contract of veteran reliever Drew Pomeranz, according to multiple reports, including from Bruce Levine of 670 The Score. The team optioned left-hander Jordan Wicks to the minors yesterday. Chicago has an opening on the 40-man roster, so no additional move will be needed. Pomeranz opened the year with […]
It’s been close to two decades since the San Francisco Giants have had a system with the amount of upside it currently holds. Through the draft, deadline deals, and international finds, they’ve found a handful of prospects looking to shape the next era of Giants baseball. The system is headlined by a trio of uber-talented […] The post Bo Davidson Is Cementing Himself As One of Baseball’s Best Outfield Prospects appeared first on Just Baseball .
Worcester Red Sox 7, Syracuse Mets 5 (BOX) It was bombs away for the Woo Sox on Thursday, hitting four home runs on the day, two of which came off the bat of Nathan Hickey. Hickey’s first home run, as well as Mickey Gasper’s, were off of Mets prospect Jonah Tong. Tong (5.90 ERA) has […]
Clemson looks very different coming off a successful season and we're diving into some new faces and why Cole Certa just might be the most vital if the Tigers will dance again.
1901 With a 4-3 win in 11 innings at Cleveland, the White Sox won their 10th straight game, which remains one of only 15 double-figure win streaks in franchise history. The club was swept in an Independence Day doubleheader the next day. In this, their first year in the major leagues, the White Sox won […]
Let’s take a stroll down memory lane to 11 months ago: the Braves — expected sellers at the trade deadline — decided to essentially stand pat. In fact, they actually added just as much as they sent away, acquiring reliever Tyler Kinley in a trade with the Rockies. The only player they traded was Rafael […]
St. Paul – Minor League free agency can be a daunting time, especially for those who are experiencing it for the first time. That was the case for one of the newest St. Paul Saints, Cody Morissette, whom the Miami Marlins released a month ago. Morissette was Miami’s second-round pick in the 2021 MLB Draft out of Boston College.
The Twins have obvious trade candidates if they sell, such as Joe Ryan, Ryan Jeffers and Josh Bell, but there are also other Twins players who could be dealt at the deadline and may not expect it.
Justin Bruihl put his disastrous debut with the St. Louis Cardinals in the rearview mirror, delivering a dominant June performance.
George Steinbrenner was many things. Above all, he was passionate. Passionate about his Yankees and, according to those who knew him as a Thoroughbred owner, equally passionate about horse racing. So it was no surprise that when he met a horse breeder and future Harness Racing Hall of Famer named John Cashman, the two hit […]
Your 2026 New York Mets: There is no more darkness. “Despite all of our efforts, Mendy’s included, we haven’t been able to get this going this year and I take responsibility for that. These are very difficult decisions. I have a ton of respect for him. At the same time, this is my job and […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Earlier this week, we asked who bore the most blame for the Royals becoming the “proud” owners of […]
In yesterday’s SB Nation Reacts survey, Brady posed the question, “Who will return more when they’re invariably traded? Robbie Ray or Luis Arraez?” I have to say that after going through the comments section I was a surprised by the fan responses even before knowing the poll results. Most seem to think that Robbie Ray […]
Sister Roma, the legendary San Francisco drag queen and activist, says the Giants organization failed after three players defaced Pride Night caps. She has long been involved with the team to build its Pride Night tradition.
Newcastle United lost its second member of last season’s XI with Sandro Tonali going to Tottenham less than three weeks into the summer transfer window. The deal is worth up to £100 million, roughly €117 million, and will become a club-record signing for Tottenham if completed. Now that he’s a Spur and part of NUFC […]
The Cubs are the hottest team in MLB, having won 15 of their last 19, and the Cardinals, as you’ll see below, are on a skid. Here’s hoping the Cubs keep that skid going. Standings update: The Reds did the Cubs a favor Thursday by defeating the Brewers, so the Cubs enter Friday’s action five […]
