The players each year vote in a handful of awards for their peers in the Major League Baseball Players Association. No active Chicago Cubs were honored this time around, but I still wanted to share the results, which did include a couple former players with Cubs ties:

The Washington Nationals have a new manager! According to multiple reports, the team has decided to hire Blake Butera, a former minor league manager and player development guru with the Tampa Bay Rays. My first reaction was ‘who is that guy’ and I am sure I am not alone. We will dive into who Blake […]
2025 In A Discarded-On-The-Dugout-Floor Nutshell After a fantastic and endearing start to his career as starting first baseman of the Red Sox, Triston Casas struggled both offensively and defensively before rupturing his patella a month into the season, and is now a question mark going forward. The Good There is no better example of a […]
The Kentucky Wildcats were unable to end their SEC losing skid in last week’s blowout loss to Tennessee. Now, the Wildcats get one of their most winnable games left on the schedule on Saturday when they travel to The Plains to face the Auburn Tigers. Ironically, this will be a battle of two head coaches […]

Liverpool are a club on the precipice of crisis as October reaches its end, with the defending Premier League champions having now lost six of their last seven games in all competitions and with four straight defeats in the league plummeting the Reds to seventh, level with Aston Villa. Things have been especially difficult for […]
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers need to win or the season is over, adding clarity and immediacy of purpose after two home losses that followed frustratingly similar patterns. A winnable start through six innings goes south in the seventh inning with a shaky handoff to a struggling bullpen, and an offense not performing anywhere close […]
The first thing my wife said to me this morning was, ‘It wasn’t a dream.‘ She knows me. One of my first thoughts this morning was ‘That was the sort of World Series start we should have had from Roy Halladay”. If, you know, we had a front office that could have surrounded him with […]
The Arizona Cardinals are coming off their bye week and the Dallas Cowboys are coming off a game in which they played as if it was their bye week. Despite the embarrassing loss to the Denver Broncos last week, the Cowboys are still favored at home in this Week 9 matchup with the Cardinals. This […]
Rolddy Muñoz rolled into town for a rollicking good time. A whole whopping three innings. The right-handed relief prospect has relish-worthy velocity on his fastball and rolls a lot of grounders, but he also walks too many. How acquired Muñoz signed during the 2019 international free agency period for a whole $20,000. What were the […]
The 2015 draft was an all time great for the Astros as they nailed their first two picks in the first round, and found some good talent late. Here is a look back at the first 5 rounds of picks and some other notables. Round 1, Pick 2 – Alex Bregman, INF The Astros were awarded […]
Arizona Fall League Updates Harrison covered the eight Brewers prospects participating in this year’s Arizona Fall League in an article published early last week. Now that we’re closer to the end of the AFL than the beginning, here’s some updates on a few standout prospects. Josh Adamczewski (No. 13) Adamczewski had one of the biggest […]
Over the weekend, the LSU Tigers opted to fire Brian Kelly after a 49-25 loss to Texas A&M dropped them to 5-3 on the season. The LSU opening is now considered one of the biggest head coach vacancies in college football, and many are speculating on the best candidates to fill the job. Given the […]
So far, the reviews for the new Broadway production, The New York Rangers, are getting panned by critics. With a new director (Stanley Cup champion coach Mike Sullivan) and a disgruntled leading man (Artemi Panarin), when will this production finally find its rhythm? These dress rehearsals are getting a thumbs-down from Siskel and Ebert. Winless at…
In failure and in success, the Dodgers have gotten used to the burden of expectation, routinely taking on the role of Goliath, so to speak. Seldom has there been a moment in which you could realistically claim this team is outmatched, even in past eliminations. Now, as they go down 3-2 in the World Series […]
Rafael Marchán tends to fly under the radar. He’s not a three-time All-Star like J.T. Realmuto, and he’s not a beloved master of locker room ceremonies like Garrett Stubbs. He stepped into a larger role this year for the Phillies, but still occupied only a small part of the Phillies faithful’s collective consciousness. Those of […]
When the Mets signed AJ Minter in January, the hope was that he would become a key member of the bullpen they had been missing: an effective lefty reliever. He had been great in Atlanta for his entire career up to this point, holding a 3.28 ERA with 422 strikeouts in 348 2/3 innings since […]
With the completion of Mizzou’s second trimester of the 2025 season, I felt like it would be a good time to take a look at how the Tigers’ offense and defense ranks nationally. And not just in your standard stats like total rushing yards or whatever. No. We’re going deeper. Here’s what I got for […]
The Washington Nationals have hired their next manager, but it is not somebody whose name has been out there. Paul Toboni has decided to hire 33 year old Blake Butera to be the next manager of the Washington Nationals. He will be the youngest big league manager in over 50 years. This is a very […]
It’s fitting that in the year of the Big Dumper, the Blue Jays are on the verge of their first World Series win in more than 30 years. If they had to vanquish one spectacularly large ass to make the Fall Classic, it was made possible by a collection of more ‘donks that was more […]

We have a bit of a weird question for you today. The Dallas Cowboys play their next game on Monday night against the Arizona Cardinals and we all have some trepidation about it given Arizona’s recent success against the Cowboys. They have won seven of the last eight meetings between the team. Oh, and Cardinals […]
Do you ever feel like punishing yourself for no real reason? That’s not the feeling that led me to revisit the “Bold Predictions” I made about the 2025 White Sox heading into the season, but by the time I was done with them, it sure felt like an exercise in self-flagellation. That’s a bit of […]
