This summer we’ll be exploring the top 10 offensive and defensive players Mizzou football is slated to face this fall. We’re not ranking them 1-10, it’s much more scientific then that (or linguistic since we are just ordering them alphabetically.) We’re halfway through the TTOP exercise for 2026 and we’ve finally hit a former Tiger […]
The last Farm Fortnight served as something of a first-half overview, the main theme of which was that the White Sox farm system had largely done a good job of supplying the major league roster with reinforcements, which is the main point of one. That said, I was still surprised to see Baseball America say… The post White Sox Minor Keys: June 24, 2026 appeared first on Sox Machine .

Atlanta’s minor league affiliates went .500 on Wednesday with bookend wins at the triple-A and low-A levels. There was plenty of action from Augusta’s 19 runs, to a nice day at the plate for the Stripers. Let’s get into all of Wednesday’s action. (39-37) Gwinnett Stripers 8, (44-33) Nashville Sounds 5 Box Score The Stripers […]
Happy Thursday everyone! Can you make it to the weekend? The A’s have avoided a worst-case scenario with second baseman/third baseman/outfielder Zack Gelof after he suffered what looked like a gruesome hand injury on Tuesday night in the series opener against the Giants. From the looks of things it seemed to all of us who […]
Thanks to two homers from Paul Goldschmidt and a go-ahead shot from Jasson Domínguez, the Yankees maintained their cushion atop the AL and East Division standings with a 4-2 win on Wednesday night. While the Tigers aren’t the same playoff team that they’ve been the past two years, winning a road series over a team […]
Hello everyone! The M’s got their doors blown off last night in the middle game against the Pirates, falling 11-1. The Mariners lineup continued to sputter with their 10th game in a row failing to score at least 4 runs. Which hitter’s struggles are most concerning to you during this prolonged slump? In Mariners news… […]

Another tough night for the Phillies’ minor league teams, with Clearwater the only team able to emerge victorious. There were plenty of shaky pitching performances across the board, and a demotion to the minors has seemingly not cured whatever ails Tanner Banks. Syracuse 5, Lehigh Valley 4 Things started off well for the IronPigs on […]
The 2026 San Diego Padres are the most confusing team in baseball. They are a bottom-five offense in most major categories, have one of the thinnest rotations, have a -8 run differential, and are 17-21 against teams above .500. Yet somehow, at 41-37, they are tied with the Cubs for the final wild-card spot. Still, […] The post The Padres Are Taking Roster Risks That Just Aren’t Working appeared first on Just Baseball .
A reader sent over this clip, which made me laugh. The background is that Bill Colarulo called out Spike Eskin earlier in the week after Eskin labeled Bryce Harper a “selfish” player. That was in response to Harper telling reporters that he didn’t care what people thought about his baserunning. Mind you, Harper had just […] The post RADIO WARS: Bill Colarulo Issues Formal Challenge to Spike Eskin After Being Blocked on Twitter appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Trade season kicked off on Wednesday with the Cubs landing lefty David Peterson from the Mets. It’s not exactly a blockbuster, but it could signal the organizational direction for both sides. Speaking of trades… 1. Top 35 Trade Candidates article drops today We’re publishing a full breakdown of the most interesting trade pieces heading into […]
This series has exposed the Washington Nationals fatal flaw. They cannot close out games to save their life. Nationals pitchers who come in the game in the 9th inning of a close game feel like fish out of water. The Nationals have already blown 23 saves as a team, while no other team has blown […]
The A’s have dropped the first two games of this mid-week series against our old Bay Area rivals the Giants. That’s extended the losing streak to four games, dropping the team to 38-42 and into third place in the AL West. Can’t think about that though. Gotta flush the bad vibes and that starts today. […]
1903 It was a tale of two games. The first nine innings, played to a tie, was full of hitting and sloppy fielding (12 errors, six per team). The second nine, also played to a tie, featured a pitcher’s duel that ended in the dark. The White Sox and Highlanders (Yankees) played the longest game […]
The Milwaukee Brewers are 49-29 on the season following their thrilling 6-5 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday night. Now 20 games over .500 for the first time this season, the Brewers continue to climb in the overall standings and own the second-best record in all Major League Baseball. The win on Wednesday completed [...]
Coming into the season, the Braves rotation was a significant concern, especially after the injuries to Spencer Schwellenbach and Hurston Waldrep. They were able to hide those glaring issues over the first couple of months, but the warts are out in the open now. As currently constructed, this is among the worst rotations in baseball, […]
Feelings of deja vu in Triple-A and Double-A as the Comets and Drillers experienced similar results to those of the previous day. Player of the day Chase Harlan had been one of the standout performers not only with the Tower Buzzers but across the whole Dodger minor league system when he got promoted to High-A […]
JP Sears was called up to the majors to take the start for the San Diego Padres against the Atlanta Braves in their series finale at Petco Park in place of Lucas Giolito who landed on the injured list with right elbow inflammation earlier in the week. Sears might have been one of the few […]
