The SMU Mustangs had never lost a conference matchup since joining the ACC, entering Saturday a spotless 10-0. But the Mustangs weren’t completely spotless against their peers in the new league.

NJ.com | Adam Zagoria: In case you were in a coma Friday night or decided to do an ayahuasca retreat or were for some other reason not watching the Dodgers game, Shohei Ohtani went nuts. Three montstrous home runs and 10 strikeouts over six innings. It’s inarguably on the short list for the greatest single-game […]

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs played through an illness last weekend, stating that he threw up before and during the team’s win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Cardinals are entering what could be a multi-year rebuilding period where they focus more on strengthening their farm system and player development apparatus than winning games at the major league level. That’s a pivot that started last winter, but a number of key veteran players with no-trade clauses wanted to stick with the organization…

Clemson hosted SMU today in a rematch of last year’s ACC Championship game. The Tigers came in favored but had to rely on Christopher Vizzina at QB since Cade Klubnik couldn’t play because of an ankle injury suffered last week. Poor offensive line play made things difficult for the Tigers and the defense gave up […]

Green Bay Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon was given an illness status on the team’s injury report adjustment on Saturday. He’s now listed as questionable for the game, as is cornerback Nate Hobbs (knee), who apparently got injured during Friday’s practice.

Earlier today, the Giants made waves when it was reported that the club is “closing in on hiring” University of Tennessee coach Tony Vitello as their next manager. While no deal is in place at this point, the news still came as a surprise. That’s not only because Vitello has no experience in professional baseball but…

The road has been very unkind to Arizona of late, with its previous four away games all losses by 20-plus points. Down two touchdowns entering the fourth quarter, another lopsided road defeat looked possible. Instead, the UA rallied to tie it with less than five minutes to go but never got the ball back. Ethan […]

If Andrew Baggarly isn’t as close to an unimpeachable source when it comes to Giants rumors and breaking or near-breaking news, then no beat writer is. He mentioned Tennessee Volunteers coach Tony Vitello as a possible replacement for Bob Melvin when this whole search began, and just moments ago on The Athletic, he, Brittany Ghiroli, […]

Is there anything to discuss today besides Shohei Ohtani? Talk about waking a sleeping giant. Ohtani almost makes this look easy, and it’s hard to remember that this incredible skill didn’t happen by chance—Ohtani built himself this way over years and years of single-minded dedication. Makes you wonder what you can do if you really […]

It has been my belief for a while that the baseball season does not “need” to be 162 games long. A far shorter season is more than sufficient to determine who are the best teams, with everything after that largely being limited to the re-arranging of playoff spots. In April this year, I looked at […]

The Athletic’s Andrew Baggarly, Brittany Ghiroli, and Ken Rosenthal report that “the Giants are closing in on hiring” University of Tennessee head coach Tony Vitello as their next skipper. Vitello told The Athletic by text that…

While I wince at the missed opportunity, let’s take some of your questions and address some admittedly more relevant baseball topics! Ca$hman Does Trent Grisham get a qualifying offer? Does he accept it if…

I always wonder what I would have done. I think, I would have brought Hoffman in and tell him “you have six outs to get, I’m not going to take you out no matter what. This is why you are here.” The worry would have been that he has given up a lot of home […]
