The St. Louis Cardinals will have a hard time topping their come-from-behind thriller Monday night when they scored 4 ninth inning runs to beat Pittsburgh 4-2. However, maybe they can score some runs before the 9th inning Tuesday night when Kyle Leahy gets the start for St. Louis. Braxton Ashcraft will take the mound for […]

Tonight begins the third series in a row in which the O’s face a team currently sitting in last place in its division. It’s unusual to find the Astros resembling that remark, as they’ve been consistently good for the better part of a decade, making the playoffs eight times in the last ten years. The […]
After recent news broke that a British heavyweight fight between Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury had finally been signed, it was a bit curious that the announcement came without a specific date or venue. In an interview with Fight Hype, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn confirms that they have actually put pen to paper for a […]
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Giants: Let’s talk about.
The Houston Astros (11-18) begin a 6-game road trip tonight with the first game of a 3-game series against the Baltimore Orioles (13-15) at Camden Yards.

The Colorado Rockies are surely feeling good about life since they are coming off a three-game sweep of the New York Mets at Citi Field. Worth noting, Colorado sits at 13-16 on the season, their best start through 29 games since 2022, when they got off to a 16-13 start. In addition, the Rockies are […]
The Mets hadn’t officially listed who their starting pitcher would be for the second game of their series against the Nationals until this afternoon, but it’s official now: David Peterson is getting the start. The 30-year-old lefty had lost his rotation spot after a string of very bad outings, but he’s fared better working multiple […]
Justin Steele had Tommy John surgery just about a year ago. So, most were hoping he could come back to the Cubs rotation sometime in late May or early June. That, apparently, will not be happening: We don’t really know anything beyond this, yet. A “setback” could be a few days, or a few weeks, […]
In addition to mentioning that Juan Soto is dealing with forearm tightness in his pregame press availability, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that fellow outfielder Luis Robert Jr. is dealing with lower back tightness. The team considers him day-to-day at the moment. The perpetually-injured Robert is in his age-28 season, his first in Queens as […]
Hoo boy, we got an absolute litany of updates from Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss during his usual pre-game press conference. It was as if the skipper just decided to take this opportunity to clear the air about the handful of Braves players who are in various stages of working their way back onto the […]
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Juan Soto experienced forearm tightness after throwing on Friday, and the team is hoping he can get back to playing the field in the next few days. For now, Soto is in the Mets’ lineup as the team’s designated hitter for their series opener against the Nationals tonight at […]
From Boston on down, several Red Sox pitching prospects have stood out in the early stages of the 2026 season. One name that may be flying under the radar, though, is Dylan Brown. Brown made this week’s Baseball America Hot Sheet as a prospect with “helium” after his most recent start for Low-A Salem last … Continue reading "Red Sox pitching prospect Dylan Brown off to promising start with Low-A Salem"
Let’s start with the important part of this story: Luis Arraez is having a great season right now. Do all the people who never doubted the front office’s commitment to signing a singles hitter who hadn’t played second base in some time to play second base want to serve crow to those of us who […]
The San Francisco 49ers announced a pair of signings on Tuesday afternoon. Running back Sincere McCormick and safety Patrick McMorris agreed to one-year deals. McCormick spent time on the 49ers’ practice squad last season. McMorris is a new name, unless you watch college football in the Bay Area. He was selected by the Giants in […]
The A’s announced on Tuesday afternoon that the team was placing third baseman Max Muncy on the IL with a broken bone in his left hand. The team recalled fellow third baseman Brett Harris from Triple-A to take his roster spot. It’s a tough break for Muncy after his solid start to the season. The […]
We don’t know exactly when, but Anthony Volpe is nearing a return to the Yankees. Once the team ends his rehab assignment and brings him back to the big leagues, the expectation is that Volpe will resume his duties as the starting shortstop or, at the very least, play the majority of games there going […]
Ahead of their series opener against the Nationals on Tuesday, the Mets placed Kodai Senga on the 15-day injured list with lumbar spine inflammation and recalled Christian Scott from Triple-A Syracuse. Senga came out of the gate strong this season. In his first two starts, the 33-year-old pitched 11.2 innings, allowing four runs (3.09 ERA) […]
Oregon baseball stays at home for their midweek game before traveling to Seattle for a series against the Huskies. The #13 Ducks (32-11, 15-6 Big-10) host the Gonzaga Bulldogs (27-14, 15-3 WCC). The Bulldogs are a dangerous team, especially in a midweek game. They are on a 14-game win streak, and while the WCC isn’t […]
The Atlanta Braves and their league leading offense are facing the Detroit Tigers having just won twenty games before the month of May for the first time in franchise history. The Braves lead MLB with 5.72 runs scored per game. To put that in perspective, if they continue to score this many runs per game […]
