Diamondbacks turned around season at Giants’ expense

Maybe Indiana Jones was right about snakes. The Arizona Diamondbacks have won nine of their last 10 games and climbed into the second wild-card spot in the National League. Their secret? Going 5-0 against the San Francisco Giants in that stretch. It happened again Tuesday night. Arizona took a 6-2 lead after seven innings after […]

Shohei Ohtani carries on a dominant campaign

What is there to say about Shohei Ohtani, the pitcher, that hasn’t already been brought up many times? In the season marked by some periods of frustration with the bat, at least early on, Ohtani has managed to exceed even the loftiest expectations of his ability on the mound—so much so that the five scoreless […]

LSU to host 5-star DL Jalen Brewster

Five-star defensive lineman Jalen Brewster is headed to Baton Rouge for an official visit with Lane Kiffin this weekend. While one of the top defensive players in the country had already committed to Texas Tech back on October 4, 2025, that hasn’t stopped other programs from attempting to flip Brewster. Florida, Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas […]

What to do with baseball….and other sports. Next steps?

Rutgers Baseball bowed out of the Big Ten Baseball Tournament early, with two consecutive losses. That followed a must-win series win over Northwestern just to get in. The team earned the 10-seed, but left Omaha quickly. The short time in Nebraska led to a few comments on various sites, including here, as to whether this […]

Braves endeavor to earn series win in Elder-Early encounter

The quirks of MLB scheduling are, well, quirky. The Braves only play the Red Sox six times over the course of the 2026 regular season, but because those games are 11 days apart, the pitching matchups can feel a bit repetitive. Bryce Elder and Connelly Early didn’t square off against one another two weekends ago […]

The numbers behind the Cubs’ 10-game losing streak

Without commentary, I present all the numbers the Chicago Cubs have posted during their 10-game losing streak. They have been outscored 65-25 during the streak, so the average loss has been by four runs. The team has batted .185/.288/.293 (60-for-324) with 11 doubles, eight home runs and 87 strikeouts. The pitchers have a 6.18 ERA, […]

How have Red Sox managers debuted in the John Henry era?

Chad Tracy isn’t the first Red Sox manager, although he is the first to take over mid-season in a while. He’s also the first mid-season replacement since the ownership group led by John Henry purchased the team. Through 26 games, Tracy is sitting on a record of 12-14 after Alex Cora took the team to […]
