World Series Is Over: Now the Offseason Gets Weird

In this episode of the Royals Rundown podcast, hosts Jacob Milham and Jeremy “Hokius” Greco dive into the aftermath of the World Series and what it means for the Kansas City Royals. With Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s breakout postseason, the Dodgers’ bullpen masterclass, and the Blue Jays’ gritty run, there’s plenty to unpack before the hot stove […]

2025 Phillies Player Review: Alec Bohm

In 2024, Alec Bohm put together the best season of his career, made the All-Star Game, and then struggled in the second half. He was benched in game two of the National League Division Series against the New York Mets and faced dozens of different trade rumors throughout the winter. Given Dave Dombrowski’s history of […]

Blast from the past: Ted Turner transforms Braves franchise into “America’s Team”

Before we jump into the transformation in 1976, when Ted Turner signed a deal to broadcast Braves baseball nationally, it’s important to first understand how it all started. Beginning in 1966, the Milwaukee Braves franchise was transferred to Atlanta. Although the franchise initially thrived after moving from Boston to Wisconsin, attendance began to decline around […]

Reviewing the Rule 5 eligibles

With the Dodgers having finished off the Blue Jays in an appropriately epic Game 7 to conclude one of the all time great World Series, the offseason is officially here and underway. And in just 15 — count ‘em, 15 — days, we have the deadline for teams to add players to the 40 man […]

Hey, Chicago Cubs Prospect Pedro Ramirez Also Won a Gold Glove!

The big league Chicago Cubs won an MLB-leading three Gold Gloves last night, with each of Nico Hoerner, Pete Crow-Armstrong, and Ian Happ taking home the deserved honors .

Congrats to Pedro Ramirez: Pedro Ramirez has been name...

Happy Birthday Paul Quantrill and Ryan Tepera

Former Blue Jays reliever Paul Quantrill turns 57 today. He spent six seasons with the Jays and pitched in 386 games, sixth in team history for games (and no one will be passing him soon). His best season with the Jays was 1997, when he had a 1.94 ERA in 77 relief appearances. He had […]

Van Dijk: “Trent Was Very Important for Us — But Now He’s the Opponent”

Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has spoken about the emotional return of former teammate Trent Alexander-Arnold to Anfield, as the right-back prepares to face his old club in Real Madrid colors in tomorrow night’s Champions League clash — though, due to his health, may not appear in the match at all. Alexander-Arnold, who joined Real […]

Washington Nationals MacKenzie Gore on the top of trade boards

One of the biggest discussions this offseason will be whether the Washington Nationals trade MacKenzie Gore. After not being dealt despite his name being in the rumor mill, MacKenzie Gore’s name is at the center of trade discussions again. MLB Trade Rumors put Gore at number 1 on their list of 40 potential trade candidates. […]

Cubs free agent target: Kyle Tucker

I’m going to preface this by saying that you know it as well as I do: The Cubs aren’t going to retain Kyle Tucker. That seems completely obvious to anyone who’s followed Tucker’s saga from being traded to the Cubs last winter, to becoming a free agent the day after the World Series ended. Why […]

The Detroit Tigers entered the 2025 season with an opening day payroll of $145,318,033 (17), according to Cot’s Contracts. By season’s end, that number was up to $161.4 million, which ranked 16th in the major leagues out of 30 teams. Those numbers were up significantly from opening day, 2024, when the club had an Opening Day total […]

2025 Season in Review: Michael Lorenzen

Biceps Biceps Biceps. Seriously. When Michael Lorenzen walks off the mound and gets a close-up on the broadcast, that’s all I can see. The man’s got muscles upon muscles in those arms. I assume that’s why he’s still pumping mid-90s heat as he enters his mid-30s. The Royals acquired Lorenzen from the Texas Rangers in […]

Ceddanne Rafaela wins Gold Glove Award, duh

There’s a nagging paradox at the heart of baseball — or any sport, really — and it’s this: The goal of every single player is to play the game perfectly; but if they ever did, there would no longer be any reason for us to watch. To the fans, perfection is not only boring, it’s […]

49ers once again win despite meddling from officiating crew

It was not a good day for John Hussey’s officiating crew. One of the more noticeable things from the 49ers’ 34–24 win over the New York Giants on Sunday was how baffling some of the calls that fell on Hussey’s watch. The 49ers got away with a couple of things, too—notably a false start on […]
