Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, happy holidays to those who don’t, and the rule of thirds dictates that I have a third point here, but I kind of covered it. Do you perhaps wish for the Cardinals to make a big signing in free agency? And perhaps this signing can come from abroad, from […]
Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! It’s a time for family and celebration, or at least reflection for those of us who don’t have anywhere to go during the holiday season. Every family has its dysfunction, of course, and sometimes that dysfunction boils over. Such was the case for Nolan Arenado and the Colorado Rockies […]
We still have almost two months until pitchers and catchers report in mid-February, and plenty more signings and trades are still coming around the league. On the other hand, just about every notable free agent reliever is now accounted for with Tuesday’s signing of RHP Pete Fairbanks by the Miami Marlins. There are still plenty […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters, and Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. For Orioles fans, it feels like Christmas has come early. For the first offseason in what feels like forever, the O’s have acted aggressively and decisively — and spent a boatload of money — to improve their team. Pete Alonso, of course, was the […]
Another lost season. Geez. Not the Christmas gift Arizona Cardinals fans were looking for. Remember back in the mid-teens when Bruce Arians had the Cardinals going through winning seasons and in the playoffs for several years? Those were exciting times to be a Cardinals fan. Being a good team during the regular season, then winning […]
Merry Christmas, everyone! On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
Coming into the offseason, the Twins had three major needs to fill. First base has been, at least temporarily, filled after Josh Bell agreed to take his talents to the Twin Cities. They started to shore up the bullpen by acquiring Eric Orze from the Rays last month, but could still use 2-3 reliable arms […]
Good morning everyone! We hope you’re having a merry Christmas and a happy holiday. Madison had the overnight news roundup, but the rest of the staff is otherwise understandably off today. If you’re spending time with friends and family today, then great! If you’re trying to escape some for whatever reason or just hanging out, […]
The Falcons have won two games in a row against a freefalling Buccaneers team and lousy Cardinals squad, but their last great challenge of the 2025 season is ahead. The Los Angeles Rams are one of the best teams in football, quarterbacked by a still-excellent Matthew Stafford, who is throwing the ball to all-world receiver […]
Lamine Yamal is the king of dribbling – FC BarcelonaLamine Yamal is already, at just 18 years old, one of the key members of the current Barça squad and one of the top players in world football after a spectacular 2025. The calendar year has seen the teenager establish himself as a fundamental pillar of […]
Gameweek 17 delivered several standout Fantasy Premier League performances, with players across all positions producing significant returns. From defenders contributing goals to goalkeepers producing match-winning displays, this gameweek had a major impact on overall rankings — and offered clear signals for FPL managers heading into Gameweek 18. Kelleher (Brentford) Kelleher was one of the standout […]
Let’s start with a Merry Christmas from everyone at Battery Power. We hope you have a wonderful day with your loved ones whether and/or however you celebrate! Well the dam hasn’t quite broken yet on the bulk of the offseason free agent and trade markets, as this has been a uniquely slow year so far. […]
NY Post | Matt Ehalt: The Yankees have had their top priorities set for a while, but they’re still out there waiting to find a new team. In case things don’t end up falling their way and they need to pivot midway through the offseason, a Plan B has to be in place. For the […]
Earlier this week, Baseball America published the following graphic: So I pose the question to you: Heading into 2026, how hopeful are you about the Colorado Rockies? Please keep in mind our Purple Row Community Guidelines when you’re commenting. Thanks!
This round was more of the customary tight battle, given the smaller pool of votes. Emerging victorious from a late, dead tie was outfielder Christian Gonzalez, earning 13 of 60 (22%) votes: Gonzalez has completed just two short seasons in the White Sox system, thus this is his first taste of our Prospect Vote. It […]
It’s not often that the two worst teams in the league square off this late in the season. So, the Las Vegas Raiders and New York Giants are set up for a big matchup in Week 17, as this game has appropriately been nicknamed ‘The Tank Bowl’! Also, we have just two weeks left in […]
1927 Nellie Fox — the second-best second baseman, fourth-best hitter, and 11th-best player in White Sox history by WAR (47.4) — was born in St. Thomas, Pa. Although certainly more in line with players of his time, Fox was an undersized 5´9´´, achieving his stardom with the grit that came to personify the Go-Go White […]
Barcelona were expected to have a quiet January transfer window but those plans may have changed after center-back Andreas Christensen was ruled out for several months with an ACL injury. “I’ll talk to Deco,” was the message from Hansi Flick about the situation, meaning the rumor mill has been quick to churn out a host […]
President of Baseball Operations Chaim Bloom has already made moves to finally kickstart the St. Louis Cardinals rebuild moving Sonny Gray and Willson Contreras, but his next move might be to bring a right-handed power bat into the fold based on what he said earlier this week. The question is whether that bat will come […]
