Chelsea have given Liam Rosenior as soft of a landing as possible, as his first game in charge will be an FA Cup match against lower-league opposition. Unfortunately for Liam, that lower league is only the Championship and Charlton aren’t the worst team in it, and did recently take points off league-leaders (Frank Lampard’s) Coventry […]

Moving like a shark, the Dodgers know only one way: to keep moving forward. The reigning back-to-back champs once again show themselves completely willing to keep improving by adding star-level talent to what’s already the greatest collection of talent in the big leagues. Two of the most notable free-agent hitters remain unsigned at the start […]

From the start of the offseason, one of the free agent predictions most folks have comfortably made is that Cody Bellinger will be returning to the New York Yankees eventually. He clearly thrived with that team and in that ballpark. He provides a whole lot that they need. And each side seemed to be quite happy with the fit. ( Yankees: the Cubs say you’re welcome for trading you Bellinger for essentially nothing .)
Yet, here we are on January 9, and Cody Bellinger’s free agency is playing ...

The Royals have been actively seeking to trade their starting pitching depth for a bat that can help their lineup, but have so far been unable to land a starting-caliber impact player. The Red Sox have been interested in Cole Ragans, but the Royals have been unwilling to trade away such a high-upside arm. Instead, […]

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred has had many ideas to shake up the game in his 11-year tenure leading the sport. Some of them have been good, like the pitch timer, larger bases and restrictions on defensive shifts. Others, like the placed runner (or, as it’s often called, the “Manfred Man”) have not been well-received by […]

Guys like Ralph Terry are kind of all over the history of baseball, and perhaps more specifically the history of the Yankees. Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, and Whitey Ford make all the headlines, but as we’ve seen with recent Yankee teams, the stars always need a supporting cast. Terry was never The Guy on the […]

One of the many disappointing aspects of the 2025 Orioles roster was the fact that no one hit more than 17 home runs for the team. Gunnar Henderson was one of the three players who tied with 17. After hitting 37 the year before, it was a big drop-off. Calling in to the Orioles Hot […]

Whew. Busy week, relatively speaking, for the Cubs. I was hoping this is how things would look in the first full week back from the holidays, but you never know with offseasons in the current era. I guess a lot of the activity was driven by a single Cubs trade , but the Cubs did also claim a pitcher on waivers, and signed another to a minor league deal. A relative bounty of activity in its own right. Plus renewed rumors on the positional side.
Good to see the Cubs got deals done for the...

We’ll have more coverage on this later, but it’s a Friday, so it’s low-effort question time. The Braves could renegotiate something with FanDuel. I’m not sure why they would, but they could.
