Royce Lewis Could Be On Justin Morneau’s Path to Redemption

Royce Lewis has entered a crossroads in his tenure with the Minnesota Twins. The former No. 1 overall pick, who looked like a franchise cornerstone during the 2023 postseason, looked lost. He was flailing at pitches out of the zone. The trademark confidence that allowed him to proclaim he “doesn’t do that slump thing” was gone.

Orioles news: A sour ending to the road trip

Good morning, Camden Chatters. The Orioles’ six-game road trip through two AL East cities went…fine, I guess. They broke even at 3-3 on the trip to remain four games under .500, as they were when they started. They’re 1.5 games out of the third wild card, if looking at the wild card standings this early […]

Phillies news: Andrew Painter, Brad Keller, Max Kepler

The playoff odds are climbing for the Phillies. They’re over 70% on Fangraphs, 52% on Baseball Reference and over 80% on Baseball Prospectus.

How should the Yankees align their outfield without Aaron Judge?

When the Yankees announced Aaron Judge would miss significant time with a right rib fracture, the most immediate concerns centered on the team’s offense. They’ve often struggled to score on the occasions when Judge has missed time, and with a number of bats playing below their standards to start the year, there was an understandable […]
