DRaysBay works best as a place for community and conversation. Accordingly, in the lead up to the new season, we are posting “Daily Questions” in the month of February. I look forward to seeing you in the comment section! What moment in this franchise history haunts you, keeps you up at night, barges into your […]
The Nationals figure to have an exciting lineup in 2026, with a combination of proven talent such as James Wood and CJ Abrams, youngsters who have flashed upside such as Daylen Lile and Dylan Crews, and still relatively unknown commodities such as Harry Ford and Brady House. While the lineup will certainly be worth watching […]
We finally have solid details of how the St. Louis Cardinals plan to make their games available for streaming for the upcoming season. The team says that Major League Baseball will produce and distribute all in-market St. Louis Cardinals games and they promise to do it with no regional blackout restrictions. Here are the exact […]
Although the lack of outfield depth at Triple-A Iowa has gotten the bulk of focus around here – and from the Cubs, who’ve added Justin Dean , Dylan Carlson , and Chas McCormick in the last few weeks – the Cubs were in a spot where they could use a little more depth at Double-A, as well. Consider that, although the Cubs have some very high-upside outfield prospects who’ll hopefully rise as high as Double-A later this year, the group currently at the level might lose Brett Bateman to Triple...
It’s officially February now, which means that we don’t have too much longer to wait until we start hearing the crack of the bat and baseballs hitting mitts under the Florida sun. Before that can happen and before even pitchers and catchers can report, all of the equipment needs to get down to the spring […]
Moises Chace may have lost some time to injury this year, but maybe it will hasten the time to putting him in his best spot: relief pitching Moises Chace – 53Matthew Fisher – 32Jean Cabrera – 12Cade Obermueller – 9Carson DeMartini – 8Keaton Anthony – 8Alex McFarlane – 5Griffin Burkholder – 4Mavis Graves – 1 […]
Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic Detroit had the scoop on Monday morning. The arbitration hearing between Detroit Tigers’ ace, Tarik Skubal, and the club will take place on Wednesday, February 4. The arbitration panel will have 24 hours to rule in favor on one party or the other. The Tigers filed for a one-year contract […]
The Twins kicked off the week with a surprising trade of former top prospect Edouard Julien and reliever Pierson Ohl for minor leaguer Jace Kaminski, who had missed all of 2025 with Tommy John surgery. They ended the week with a bombshell announcement that POB&BO Derek Falvey and the team were parting ways. While the […]
It’s now official. The Green Bay Packers formally announced on Monday that they have hired Jonathan Gannon as their new defensive coordinator, replacing Jeff Hafley, who left to take the job as head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Gannon was most recently the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals for the last three seasons. A […]
The Arizona Cardinals now have their new head coach in Mike LaFleur. Let’s take a look at what the Cardinals brass is saying: Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill: “We had the opportunity to speak with an outstanding group of candidates during this very thorough process and gathered tremendous insight from each of them. At the end of […]
Fail to prepare, prepare to fail — a Pride Night debacle in the UK’s Elite League shows capitulating to homophobes is never the right call. The post Pro hockey team bows to a homophobe, derails Pride Night and ignites backlash appeared first on Outsports .
The Braves are still looking for a television broadcast partner after moving on from Main Street Sports Group (aka the company that runs Fanduel Sports Network). However, six of other eight teams are not looking anymore for this season. The Brewers, Marlins, Rays, Royals, Cardinals, and the Reds are moving on over to MLB Media. […]
The Royals notified MLB that they will transfer their media rights to the league, rather than continue their relationship with Main Street Sports, the company that owns FanDuel Sports Kansas City. According to reporting from sports business reporter John Ourand at Puck, the Royals are one of six teams that notified the league they will […]
We’re trying a new series at Royals Review, a daily mid-day question of the day to hear about your opinions on a fun or pressing question affecting the Royals or baseball in general. Chime in and drop your answers below! Have the Royals done enough this offseason to upgrade the roster and get back to […]
It’s prospects week here at Bleed Cubbie Blue as today I’m starting the countdown of my top 25 Cubs prospects for 2026. Each day we’re going to look at five new prospects until we get down to the top five on Friday. The Cubs farm system is definitely down at the moment. It’s not the […]
This is something of a follow-up to yesterday’s question, where we asked you to tell us what you would consider a successful season for the 2026 Diamondbacks. There were a lot of thoughtful answers – and, it is clear, no real consensus as to what that means. For some it’s “The post-season or bust,” while […]
Welcome all to another year of Braves baseball, and with it comes one of our favorite things to do – our Top 30 rankings. After another strong draft that saw the Braves go heavy on position players, we are starting to see these players rise up the ranks and fill out what has been a […]
The past few seasons of Yankee baseball have produced a familiar pattern when it comes to closing games. The first option the team tabs to handle the ninth inning invariably falters, forcing Aaron Boone to thumb through his bullpen to find a suitable replacement, or for Brian Cashman to acquire one from elsewhere. In 2022, […]
For personal reasons, I have stopped being the regular every-day person on Cubs coverage on the weekends. Among other things, our youngest kiddo’s extra needs have continued to grow over the years, and it had become increasingly difficult to be as present in both places as I felt I needed to be. So, for the weekend, the family wins out. That said, it’s not as if I stop being a Cubs fan on the weekends, or stop obsessively following the news and rumors when I sneak peeks at my phone. I’ll ...
The story need not be repeated. You are already familiar with the tale of Alec Bohm’s irritated mutterings, and the camera that caught them, the ensuing apology and appreciative ovation that followed. This article is not going to be about that. It’s not going to be about the psychology of being an athlete in the […]
In this episode of the Royals Rundown Podcast, Jeremy “Hokius” Greco is joined by Royals Review Managing Editor Max Rieper to go over a hodgepodge of baseball news ahead of Spring Training. They touch on a few trade ideas for the Royals both before the season starts and perhaps at the deadline. They also remind […]
A native of Markham, Ontario, Canada, Jonah Tong grew up in a family of athletes. His skill at baseball quickly became apparent, but given that the family lived in Ontario, there was a distinct lack of opportunities for him to learn, grow, and highlight his skills to professional scouts and evaluators. A student at Bill […]
Mike and Dan look back at a packed week of trades, wins, a season sweep and one terrible loss that makes an already daunting upcoming week for the Islanders even more scary. For five days last week, Islanders fans were feeling good. Three wins, two over the Rangers in a humiliating season sweep complete with […]
Errors and strikeouts. If you’re a Red Sox fan you’re probably sick of seeing both of those things. The 2025 Red Sox led all of baseball in errors last year, after committing the second-most errors in 2024 and the fourth-most in 2023. The strikeout numbers don’t look much better, as Red Sox hitters finished with […]
With the Mariners’ announcement that Logan Evans will miss the entire 2026 season with UCL surgery, the Marinersphere is debating who will be the new sixth starter. Kade Anderson’s not ready, and Mariners fans are all too familiar with the flaws of Emerson Hancock and Dane Dunning. So a lot of eyes have turned to […]
