The Rays are weighing their 2026 shortstop options: Taylor Walls, Carson Williams, or an external stopgap to buy Williams more development time. I don’t think an outside addition is necessary. Williams is ready for a full-time MLB role, and his 2025 season showed he has outgrown Triple-A and begun adjusting to major-league pitching. Proved Himself […]

The Yankees’ offseason has gotten off to a quiet start. That fact, in and of itself, is not particularly alarming. The baseball offseason, despite the popular ‘hot stove’ term, rarely moves all that quickly at first. But when a rival team makes aggressive moves early on, fans start to get antsy. The Blue Jays, who […]

When Indiana men’s basketball’s 2025-26 schedule was released earlier this year, one date jumped off the page immediately: December 6. No matter what, the Hoosiers would take on Louisville for a semi-home game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. It makes sense, the program makes efforts to get to the state’s capital most seasons and has […]

The Mets enter the Winter Meetings already having added a significant free agent in Devin Williams, and pulled off a swap of two veteran players when they received Marcus Semien from the Rangers in exchange for Brandon Nimmo.

Ranger Suarez Rumors — I know there’s a whole lot of exciting Cubs/Alex Bregman talk out there lately , but don’t let that distract you from the publicly stated and more logical offseason objective: Pitching, pitching, and more pitching. Last we heard, the Cubs were in on Dylan Cease until his bidding approached $200 million, and that they remain involved in the markets for Michael King and Tatsuya Imai . We also learned that the Cubs can add upwards of $50 million to the 2026 payroll , w...

The New York Rangers suffered a big blow to their defense corps last week as Adam Fox was placed on LTIR with a left shoulder injury. He's expected to miss multiple weeks. That leaves the Blueshirts in a lurch on the blueline. They have a serious lack of puck-moving d-men, and in particular, they will be hurt on the power play. Insider Elliotte Friedman reported on his 32 Thoughts podcast that they are scouring the market for help in those areas, and seem to be zeroing in on ...

The Royals head into the 2025 Winter Meetings in Orlando next week knowing exactly what stands between them and a postseason berth: a more potent offense. An 82–80 season showed progress from key players, but also exposed how often the lineup ran out of firepower when it mattered. The Winter Meetings are typically where executives […]
