It wasn’t a great week to be a pitcher in the Yankees’ organization. Several highly touted pitching prospects scuffled across all levels in some of their worst outings of the season, but they were picked up by some strong hitting performances up and down the system. Dax Kilby made his season debut, George Lombard Jr. […]
White Sox fans, you’ve been hurt, and don’t I know it. You hesitate to recognize the 2026 White Sox as postseason contenders, which, based on the trauma of the 2024 season alone, is valid. You don’t trust the front office or the organization as a whole, and may harbor anger towards the team. You’re exhausted […]
It needs to be asked: Is Manny Machado elite anymore? The San Diego Padres’ third baseman has had a great career, making seven All-Star teams, winning three Silver Slugger awards, two Gold Gloves, and four finishes in the top five of MVP voting. But at age 33, it seems like he may no longer be […]
It goes without saying that the Twins’ bullpen is in need of some juice. They have seemingly found a few strong building blocks, including Yoendrys Gomez, who has been a revelation for this team after the Twins pulled him out of thin air. Others have done enough to keep the team afloat, but the bullpen […]
Next up at No. 13 on the BSH Community Draft Board is Ethan Belchetz, a new-age power forward who turned heads with his play with the Windsor Spitfires in the OHL. Belchetz combines size, capable hands, and a dogged work ethic to complete a tantalizing package of potential, one that has him ranked either inside, or just outside this year’s top 10. Pre-draft rankings Ranked #7 by Elite Prospects Ranked #13 by The Athletic (Corey Pronman) Ranked #14 by Sportsnet (Jason Bukala) Ra...
The Texas Rangers are in the middle of a rather up and down season. They have the potential to compete, but injuries have been a concern for the Rangers.

The Atlanta Braves, who lead the NL East by 9.5 games and are leading the league in designating Carlos Carrasco for assignment, have made a roster move before tonight’s game with the Toronto Blue Jays. Lookie lookie lookie, here comes Cookie. I don’t quite understand why MLB doesn’t just allow teams to hold 14 pitchers […]
The Cleveland Guardians are in first place in the American League Central standings. The Boston Red Sox are in last place in the American League East. Cleveland is just 20th in total runs scored and home runs and 27th in slugging percentage.

The Jays finally got a day off after finishing 17 straight games with a 10-7 record. But back at it tonight, they are facing the team with the best record in all of baseball: Atlanta Braves. The Braves have gone 40-20 so far this season, burying their closest competitors at 9.5 games back out of […]
Jazz Chisholm Jr, second baseman for the New York Yankees, made a bold prediction on the Jimmy Fallon Show, and it left MLB fans wondering. Jazz Chisholm claims the Yankees are going all the way and getting back to the…
The New York Giants announced the release of a veteran kicker, which amounts to a huge roster upset at OTAs.
Ty Langenberg didn’t think he’d be at Triple-A this early in the season. But with constant turnover on the Minnesota Twins’ major league roster due to injuries or players being DFA’d, someone has had to step up and fill the open spots left on the St. Paul Saints roster. Langenberg has been one of those someones.
If Keith Hernandez wasn’t part of the best booth in baseball, maybe he would have been busy trying to create the best office in politics. Hernandez joined the latest episode of Sources Tell Jeff Passan, where the New York Mets Hall of Famer admitted he never dreamed of having a second career in baseball as…
Last week, I had recap duties for the Mets’ series opener against the Reds. After the Mets suffered another in a long line of hapless losses, I chose to mostly write about the New York Knicks, who at that time were one win away from the NBA Finals. A dereliction of duty? Perhaps, but in […]
It was quite a bloodletting for seeded teams in the tournament this weekend. Seven of the sixteen seeded were wiped away in the first weekend, including the top two seeds in UCLA and Georgia Tech. There were some great performances in the tournament though. It’s possible some of these players that we’re tracking were able […]
The Royals have lost 16 of 20 games, and are now just a half game from having the worst record in baseball in early June. The season has been a huge disappointment for a team that largely returned a roster coming off back-to-back winning seasons and was expecting to contend for a post-season spot. When […]
It’s not every day where you get to see a team live up to the expectations of the conference and potentially win the Mountain West regular season title. And Nevada did just that…nearly. Even with their former head coach Jake McKinley leaving to take a job on the Seattle Mariners coaching staff two and a […]
TCU sophomore pitcher Tyler Phenow has declared for the transfer portal after two years with the Horned Frogs. The 6-foot-6, 210-pounder from Champlin, Minnesota made 13 appearances during the 2026 season, posting an 11.70 ERA with six strikeouts and seven walks over 10 innings pitched. Phenow made one appearances during his freshman season, throwing a […]
With a .301/.416/.634 slash line through his first 60 games of the season, it’s not a question of whether Yordan Alvarez will be selected to his fourth American League All-Star team. The question is whether he’ll be traveling to Philadelphia alone. It’s been 12 years since the Astros were limited to a single All-Star, and […]
Detroit Tigers infielder Gleyber Torres has been recovering from an oblique injury. Torres has been trending in the right direction, and it seems as if he will return on Tuesday. “Gleyber Torres will be activated from injured list tonight and be in Tigers lineup against Rays LHP Steven Matz, manager A.J. Hinch told @MLBNetworkRadio,” Jason […] The post Tigers set to make huge Gleyber Torres move for Rays game appeared first on ClutchPoints .
