The San Diego Padres’ minor league system has done a terrific job of developing top bullpen prospects. Last season, David Morgan provided outstanding appearances as a bridge-gap reliever. They may have another quality arm on the horizon, as Bradgley Rodriguez could have a meaningful role in the 2026 bullpen. Rodriguez’s rise to greatness The Padres […]

It has been a while since the Nats have made a move, but that should change before too long. There are some obvious moves that could occur, like signing a first baseman or trading MacKenzie Gore. However, one move that is not as obvious is trading Jacob Young. It is far from a certainty, but […]

It’s a new year, but the Yankees still resemble their same old selves with minimal moves made thus far in the offseason. That may finally be changing, as there’s noise of a potential deal for Miami’s Edward Cabrera in the works, but for now we’ll have to wait and see if that gets completed. Even […]

The Pittsburgh Pirates are hoping to improve their infield in 2026. While they have made some moves to already help with that by trading for Tampa Bay Rays second baseman Brandon Lowe, there is more that can be done. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reporter Jason Mackey is reporting that the Pirates are interested in signing Seattle Mariners […]

Well, it wasn’t like it wasn’t expected. The Cardinals set a franchise record for the most losses in a season with 14 by getting thumped by the Los Angeles Rams 37-20 in a game that the Rams had nothing to gain by winning. Today, on “Black Monday,” Gannon was fired. He finished his tenure in […]

The turning of the calendar from 2025 to 2026 has come and gone, which makes this as perfect of a time as any to start to take a bit of an inventory of sorts when it comes to how the 2026 Atlanta Braves are shaping up. It also gives us an excuse to really start […]

NFL Black Monday is upon us. There’s a lot of news about firings (see: Jonathan Gannon axed) … but there’s also news about who’s being retained. On that subject, the Philadelphia Eagles are likely happy to see that the New York Giants are not parting ways with general manager Joe Schoen. The G-Men are 22-45-1 […]

Paul Toboni has made his first move of 2026. The Nats claimed Joey Wiemer off of waivers from the San Francisco Giants. Wiemer was a former top 100 prospect in the Brewers system, but his unrefined offensive game has led to him struggling to lock down an MLB role. The Nats appear to be giving […]

It was in the third round of the 2025 MLB Draft when East Tennessee State University junior Cody Miller received the call that he’d been selected by the Atlanta Braves—his favorite team, a fandom passed down from his father.

Taylor Davis had become a folk hero to Cubs fans when he hit a game-tying grand slam against the Cardinals in a game in May 2019. That’s always fun to re-watch, so here it is [VIDEO]. Your browser does not support the video tag. Davis played in just 20 games over parts of three seasons […]

It’s that time again, we’d like you to pick out your Reading player of the month, this time for December 2025. A reminder that this vote doesn’t cover the Royals’ last two games – home wins over Burton Albion and Stockport County – so for the purposes of this voting, pretend they haven’t happened yet. […]

It’s a huge bummer that things simply did not work out for Caleb Kilian with the Chicago Cubs. He was a modest prospect at the time he was acquired in the 2021 Kris Bryant trade, but pretty quickly saw his stuff take a step forward. He blew up in the Arizona Fall League, and made it to the big leagues the following year. He dominated for a little bit of one game, the hopes got very high, and then it all kinda fell apart. Over the next few years, Kilian made it back to the big leagues a co...

If you can believe it, Spring Training is right around the corner. Which means we’d better get cracking on the Willie McCovey Memorial Community Prospect List, because we have to rank 44 San Francisco Giants prospects, and we’re only just past the halfway mark! Our latest name is one that has been all over the […]

Not Jacob Misiorowski. Not Paul Skenes. No, not even Stephen Strasburg. The best starting pitcher debut this century belongs to none other than Bryce Miller. In the first five starts of his career, way back in 2023, Miller threw 31.1 innings, allowed four runs on 13 hits, walked three, and struck out 28. By Game […]

There was a bit of a stir during the holiday week when Tatsuya Imai put pen to paper and agreed to a deal with the Houston Astros. The deal that he signed contained multiple opt-out clauses in it, one after each season to be exact. It’s interesting that the opt-outs exist since that type of […]

The Twins started 2026 with a pair of moves, trading for Marlins first baseman Eric Wagaman and signing infielder Orlando Arcia. Neither is (hopefully) likely to play a significant role for the Twins in 2026, but will serve as veteran bench bats for a team that hopes to usher in a youth movement. The Past […]

The Arizona Cardinals are parting ways with head coach Jonathan Gannon after three seasons.

Gannon is expected to garner some interest around the league as a defensive coordinator […]

I probably fall somewhere in the middle on the Cynical Scale when it comes to “Team X is interested in Play A” rumors, knowing that there is typically a minimal measure of truth to them, but also that there is almost always an agenda behind (1) the rumor getting out and (2) how the rumor is framed by the originating source. For that reason, I try to walk myself – and you – through a report in a way that contemplates a number of layers, without simply buying or dismissing it whole cloth. ...
