We kick off this year’s preview of the Atlanta Braves positional groups with possibly the strongest collection of catchers on a National League roster in the 2026, with one large question mark – health. Atlanta’s catching group features the reigning 2025 National League Rookie of the Year, a two different backstops who have an All-Star […]
Where were you when Tim Wakefield’s knuckleball drifted toward Aaron Boone, almost like a butterfly dancing in the wind? Every Yankees fan remembers that October night in 2003. The stage was set after New York completed its comeback to force extra innings. Wakefield’s pitch floated the way only his knuckleball could. The crack of the […]
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 starting pitcher Patrick Corbin. The Texas Rangers looked around in the middle […]
When we reach this point in spring training, finding stories is often hard to do. For teams like the Phillies, teams that have a rather full roster difficult to crack for most veterans, they are reduced having to slog through games that will have very little determination on the edges of that roster. While the […]
Baseball season is back, and spring training is in full swing. With that, there has been opportunities for prospects to play with the Major League club and show what they can do. While it’s still early, below are a few prospects that have stood out so far in Spring Training. Hitter – Walker Janek Janek was […]
It feels weird having a Spring without the Post or MASN telling us what's up. Having to go by Zuckerman's updates or official MLB news. Anyway Zack Littell signs with the Nats which is good for the Nats but a bit weird. Well maybe. Littell was a reliever that got coverted to a starter in 2023. He was pretty solid in his half season there and in 2024 and put up a good ERA in 2025. That masked a pretty mediocre pitching effort though. If you were to describe his pitching it wou...
The Cincinnati Reds made another wave of cuts from spring camp on Monday morning, and in doing so got the number of players still in camp down to 42. Both infielder Christian Encarnacion-Strand and right-hander Chase Petty were optioned to AAA Louisville, while catcher Michael Trautwein – in camp as a non-roster invitee – was […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Happy Monday and the beginning of the 2026 NFL Free Agency Legal Tampering Period! We are […]
The Nationals bolstered their rotation in a big way yesterday when they signed Zack Littell. Once Littell is built up, he should slot in as the Nats number two starter behind Cade Cavalli. This is an exciting addition, and one of the best free agents the Nats have signed in the past few years, but […]
After weeks of hype, the trade deadline came and went with far less drama than expected. We break down the few real winners, the many losers, and why the Rangers’ deadline is still incomplete.
A surprise pitcher of the spring so far hasn’t been any of the known starters, or even a member of the Padres dominant bullpen. Left-handed starter Jackson Wolf, who pitched for El Paso and San Antonio in 2025 with a combined ERA of 5.04, has appeared in five games and seven innings pitched with a […]
As noted in the position player roster battle article earlier today, the first couple weeks of camp does less to change teams’ opinions of their options than outside observers tend to expect. With the rotation set, and at least five spots, and probably more like seven, in the eight-man bullpen already spoken for, it’s only […]
By the technical definition of a “rookie”, as outlined by Major League Baseball’s eligibility requirements, Nolan McLean enters 2026 as a rookie, in so far as he’s thrown fewer than 50 major league innings in his career (48 innings, to be exact). By way of his performance, composure, and talent level, McLean is anything but […]
With a little bit more than two weeks of Spring Training down, we’ve got a little bit less than two weeks of Spring Training left before they break camp and begin the slow journey to Opening Day. They’re in Arizona, and it’s enduring an unseasonable heat wave, so everyone is literally hot, but it’s time […]
Sunday, as you know, the Cubs made their first Spring Training roster cuts. There are now 53 players remaining in camp, and that number’s likely to remain fairly large until the World Baseball Classic ends. There are still eight members of the Cubs’ 40-man roster off at the WBC, as well as several minor leaguers. […]
Good morning! The Mariners fell to the Milwaukee Brewers 3-6 yesterday, with their three runs coming from big homers by Leo Rivas and Brennen Davis. Starter George Kirby had many good moments but wasn’t completely satisfied with his outing, specifically the movement on his sliders. Kate highlighted yesterday that Kirby is now calling some of […]
Bullpens are funny things. They can be invisible when everything is working and painfully obvious when they’re not. Over the course of a long season, though, they quietly shape the outcome of dozens of games. And for a rebuilding team like the Colorado Rockies, they matter more than ever. The Rockies’ bullpen in 2025 was… not great. […]
Team news [Arizona Sports] Brandon Pfaadt: Staying aggressive on defense is ‘the ultimate game plan’ for 2026 season – “One of the interesting things (Torey Lovullo) told us was when we’re on defense, we’re on offense,” Pfaadt said on Arizona Sports’ Wolf & Luke. “I think that kind of stood out to me, and spring […]
Baseball @ Purdue An early start (9AM Pacific) let the Ducks recover from a disappointing Saturday performance at the plate. Oregon’s offense run-ruled the Boilermakers in the 8th inning 15-4 to take the rubber match in their first conference series of the season. The first two games had been tight affairs, and in the first […]
We’re about two and a half weeks into the Dodgers’ Cactus League schedule, with another roughly two and a half weeks of exhibition games to go. It’s the first year that an automated ball-strike challenge system will be used in real, actual major league games, and thus far the Dodgers have been quite unsuccessful in […]
This is the second installment in analyzing team trends as we move towards the regular season. It’s still early and the exact numbers matter less than the trends they point toward – especially when compared to the same measurements from the 2025 season. The underlying data from Rays outfielders has stood out the most so […]
Texas A&M stayed perfect at home (12-0 #branding) and cruised to a three-game sweep of Oakland this weekend. Mother Nature was the #22 Aggies’ friend this weekend, allowing the Maroon and White to play all three games, albeit with a Friday doubleheader and Saturday morning first pitch. In their final tune-up series before conference play, […]
