2026 Cubs Heroes and Goats: Game 33

Keep stacking. One after another, the Cubs have been able to keep stacking wins. 10 straight home wins now. This is getting into some pretty rare air. I feel like a broken record. This is not an all-time great Cub team. But somehow, some way they just keep on winning. If anything, that’s the best […]

Minor league update for 5/2/26

Hickory starter A.J. Russell struck out five and walked two in two innings, allowing two runs. Moises Morales struck out nine and walked two in five innings, allowing two runs. Paulino Santana was 4 for 5 with two doubles. Marcos Torres had a pair of hits, a walk and a stolen base. Daniel Flames had […]

Braves Minor League Recap: FCL Season Opens

Saturday was full of action, with six games in the system thanks to a Columbus doubleheader and the start of FCL play. Unfortunately the teams in the Atlanta Braves system dropped each one of the six games on the slate. Despite it being a bad day in the results column, we got to witness Owen […]

Sunday morning Rangers things

Good morning, folks… The Texas Rangers fell to the Detroit Tigers by a score of 5-1 last night. The DMN writes that Kumar Rocker’s performance was a reminder of the non-linearity of progress. It could be worse, though…the Cincinnati Reds tied a major league record by walking seven straight batters against the Pirates yesterday. Brandon […]

Is Anthony Molina an interesting reliever?

I didn’t really know (or care to know) anything about Anthony Molina before this week. The only really notable thing about him is that he pitched in the Colorado Rockies organization. The Braves have a thing for Rockies relievers. He doesn’t really strikeout anybody (career 15% K rate), had a 6.82 career ERA, and didn’t […]

Dodgers notes: Roki Sasaki’s improvements, slumping offense

Dodgers fans have received more of the same experience they had last year with Roki Sasaki to begin this season, but there are some signs of growth that are starting to appear. Sasaki has shown flashes of dominance early in games, as characterized by his 0.75 ERA over the first two innings of his six […]

Sunday BP: Third day of Mays-mas

Good morning, baseball fans! We are in the middle of a new feature for May that I’m calling the “12 Days of Mays-mas” because I won’t be around for the next week or so, and I want to leave you guys with some fun things to watch while I’m gone. For the third day of […]

Chicago Cubs news and notes, — Palencia, Counsell, Hoerner

Today’s Reflection The fact that the Chicago Cubs have kept a run a going with all the obstacles in their way (like the Dodgers) is quite the blessing! What the heck is going on? The Cubs won 10 in a row, then they showed that they were human in Los Angeles. Then they pull off […]

Reactions to the Yankees’ AL East foes’ first month of play

Pinstripe Alley readers are well accustomed to our traditional end-of-month check-ins around the other five divisions. With that in mind, we’ve decided to take this opportunity in early May to cover one specific aspect that stands out about the journeys of the Yankees’ adversaries in the AL East. It’s been a weird start to the […]

One unexpected bright spot in an ugly week for the Red Sox

Alex Cora’s termination ended the short-lived tenure of the painfully awful hit celebration that the Red Sox began the 2026 season with. No matter what else comes out of the managerial and coaching changes, I’m truly appreciative of the ripple effect they had on this weirdly weak and unoriginal celebration. As I wrote earlier, the […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 5/3/26: Austin arrives

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (17-14) LEHIGH VALLEY 9, SYRACUSE 6 (BOX) Not a great game here. Yes, Jonah Tong had a strong six inning start, but continues to struggle with his breaking ball shape under the hood. The bullpen then blew it in the late innings, giving up seven runs from the seventh and onwards. Ryan Lambert was […]

Orioles news: Trey Gibson’s MLB debut coming today

Hello, friends. As is often referenced in GIF form, “Oh no, we suck again!” Two days of playing the Yankees has made it feel as if the list of Orioles problems is proving insurmountable, that nothing is going to go right this year, that the theory of the case that Mike Elias had for this […]
