Dodgers Blue Jays Game 3: Boo Birds for some Jays

And so now, the World Series moves back to the US, back to the West Coast, back to Los Angeles, for a pivotal Game 3. After an abysmal Game 1, where the offense couldn’t get going, and the bullpen couldn’t get out of its own way, the Dodgers did much better in both respects in […]

Can we just stop with this Bryce Harper nonsense?

Alright, this is getting a little out of hand. Let’s acknowledge the biggest elephant in the room, which were the comments made by Dave Dombrowski about Bryce Harper at his end of season press conference. The comments “hurt” Harper. Those comments that were made were as follows: “Of course, he’s still a quality player,” Dombrowski […]

The Dodgers and Blue Jays are currently squaring off in the Fall Classic, each in the top five in MLB in payroll spending.

The Top 50 MLB Free Agents at The Athletic Feature Plenty of Cubs Mentions

Over at The Athletic today , Jim Bowden ranks the top 50 MLB free agents, together with contract comps, predictions, and potential fits. I will offer my usual caveat: these types of articles can be interesting and informative in a broad sense – giving you a look at the landscape, overviews on players, very rough ideas on contract expectations, etc. You don’t want to take too much away from the specific Cubs mentions, for example, even if it’s interesting to see. To that end, I will say th...

Reflecting on the Last Yankee Dynasty

Several years back, Buster Olney, the former Yankees beat writer for the New York Times and a professor emeritus of baseball journalism, wrote a book called The Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty. If you haven’t already, you should read it. In his telling, the Yankee dynasty ended in the Arizona desert in 2001, when […]

Week 10 Opening Odds: Tigers lick their wounds into the bye week

If you’re in Missouri this Sunday, the weather matches the mood. Mizzou is coming off a heartbreaking loss — literally by inches — to Vanderbilt, which effectively puts them in do-or-die territory for their fledgling College Football Playoff hopes. Even then, the Tigers may have lost starting QB Beau Pribula for the season after a […]

2025 player review: Garrett Stubbs

The team always knew that Garrett Stubbs would be with the Phillies in some capacity. His minor league option that he had available, couple with the one that Rafael Marchan did not, meant that he was going to the minor leagues for the season outside of a possible injury. But was there a higher purpose […]

The Ask For Rangers' Prospect Othmann Revealed

The New York Rangers are likely going to trade Brennan Othmann this year. He is a 22-year-old former first-round pick by the Rangers with just 26 games of NHL experience. He also didn't make the team out of training camp and has only been alright in the AHL. But the Rangers just called him up and slotted him into the third line after one assist in four games for the Hartford Wolf Pack. That move seems like much more of a showcase rather than a deserving call-up, as interest has risen for the R...
