After last night’s epic World Series game, I wanted to talk about a World Series legend in Stephen Strasburg. Yesterday, Strasburg’s alma mater, San Diego State announced that the former World Series MVP would be joining their coaching staff. After being out of the public eye since his forced retirement, Strasburg is starting the next […]

By the time he was named player-manager of the Cincinnati Reds in 1984, Pete Rose was the proud owner of three World Series rings, 16 All-Star selections, and more than 4,000 hits. Yet, at the same time, Rose was — in his own words — “pushing toward disaster.” You know the rest of the story. […]

Matt Shaw was the Cubs’ No. 1 pick in 2023 out of Maryland and raced through the system, making his MLB debut this past March in Tokyo. Unfortunately, Shaw didn’t hit well early in the season. He was batting .172/.294/.241 (10-for-58) in 18 games through April 14 when he was optioned to Triple-A Iowa for […]

There are certain […]

The World Series moved to Los Angeles for Game 3 last night. After the Jays took the lead in the top of the seventh, Shohei Ohtani tied it up in the bottom of the inning with his second homer of the night. It was a back-and-forth game that went to extra innings and continued until […]

The San Francisco 49ers being the favorites isn’t anything new. However, the New York Giants not being significant underdogs is eyebrow-raising. That’s the scenario we have heading into Week 9. As the Niners head to the dreaded MetLife Stadium, FanDuel Sportsbook has the road team as 2.5-point underdogs, with an obnoxiously high total of 48.5. […]

2025 was a strange year for Nathaniel Lowe. He was coming off 4 straight years averaging 2.8 bWAR per season with a .274/.359./.432 batting line. He was joining a new team — the Washington Nationals — who many believed to be something of a sleeper in the National League with young stars James Wood and […]

Getting woken up at 3 a.m. isn’t usually pleasant — unless you’re waking up to the sound of a roaring crowd and “I Love L.A.” blasting from the Dodger Stadium speakers. Ask me how I know. Dodgers Notes Never heard of Will Klein before yesterday? That’s ok — plenty of other Dodger fans hadn’t, either. […]

Good morning. Like six hours after former Texas Rangers World Series starting pitcher Max Scherzer exited his Game 3 start last night for the Toronto Blue Jays, the Los Angeles Dodgers earned a walk-off win in 18 innings to take a 2-1 series lead in this year’s Fall Classic. Notably, Shohei Ohtani had his second […]

I value sleep highly. Having multiple small children that are involved in travel sports and other competitions, my wife and I are on the go constantly. If we’re not going to one practice or game, we’re going to another. It means rest is valued quite a bit. So when I sit down to watch a […]

For Coby Mayo, the 2025 season got off to a rocky start. And not because of his play on the field. On March 18, the day the Orioles cut him from spring training and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk, Mayo attracted some unwanted attention with his comments to the media. “It’s kind of a lose-lose […]

Not only did I not make it the full double-length World Series game, but I woke up for the day when the game had only just ended three hours earlier! Any 18-inning game is going to be, by default, a relatively crazy affair, full of close calls, great plays, and dramatic moments. I don’t want to claim that this one will forever be seen as an all-timer, but it certainly had a lot of the hallmarks. Freddie Freeman sure loves hitting particularly dramatic walk-off homers i...

What is with the Dodgers and 18-inning World Series Game 3s? I admittedly turned it off before extras started. I woke up at about 2 am to find the game still going, but made the mature decision not to tune back in. Back at it again tonight for game 4. Use this thread to talk […]

1914 White Sox pitching star, executive and Comiskey-by-marriage Johnny Rigney was born in Oak Park. Rigney had a nondescript couple of years in the minors and 1937 majors debut before the talent-starved Sox thrust him into the starting rotation in 1938. There, he blossomed, with 4.6, 4.5, 6.7 WAR from 1938-40. Only seven pitchers in […]
