Welcome to game 36 on this young season. Can you imagine? Thirty-six games? I feel like it just started yesterday. In any case, the big news for today’s game is Noah Cameron’s start being skipped. The press crew talked to Cameron and Matt Quatraro before the game, and it doesn’t seem that big of a […]
The Braves have been good so far, but they’re also keeping it interesting as they navigate injuries and the inexorable grind of the season. Tonight’s bit of intrigue: Michael Harris II is back, but… he’s in left field! I guess that gives his ailing quad muscle a bit of a break relative to center field, […]
It has been a disaster of an offseason for the Astros GM, now does he have what it takes to fix it? Every season in MLB is essentially a new project, with additions and subtractions to the active roster, to the 40 man roster, to the minor league system. It is a new puzzle each […]
Didn’t we just do this? There’s a big feeling of deja vu in the air in The Bronx tonight, as the Yankees take on the Rangers for the second time in the last week after taking two out of three at Globe Life Field in Arlington last week. That will give rookie starter Elmer Rodríguez […]

A few hours before the game, the team announced that right-handed starter Trevor McDonald had been optioned to AAA Sacramento, while right-handed reliever Joel Peguero had been activated off the 15-Day Injured List. It might seem like […]
Go Rays!
Some runs would be nice. Please note the term runs is plural. . There is a little bit of news, Jose Berrios is feeling soreness, which, since he has a stress fracture, isn’t a huge surprise. Shane Bieber is close to being ready to face live batters. It is like he’s at the start of […]
The Nats have a bad home record at 4-12. However, part of that is due to the teams they have played. They have already faced the Dodgers, Braves and Brewers at Nats Park. Now, they will get a lighter touch against the Twins. They need to take advantage of this and boost their home record. […]
First, the good news. The Red Sox got a slew of cautiously optimistic injury updates this afternoon from Comerica Park in Detroit. First up, Roman Anthony: He won’t be available these last couple of games in Detroit, but in the grand scheme of things, this is far from the worst update we could have gotten […]

The Rangers are guaranteed a top-five pick, with an 11.5 percent shot at first overall. If McKenna or Stenberg are off the board, the choice gets a lot more interesting—here's how to think about it.

The Athletics head back to the City of Brotherly Love today to start a three-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizen Bank Park. Less than a week ago You’d say these two teams were headed in opposite directions with the A’s leading the American League West, and the Phillies at the bottom of the […]
PHILADELPHIA — Chase Shugart let the cat out of the bag in Miami over the weekend, admitting on the NBC Sports Philadelphia broadcast Tim Mayza was known as “The Sheriff.” The nickname has gotten around the clubhouse, enough where Mayza is “Sheriff” by default. Mayza isn’t the oldest player in the Phillies bullpen at 34 […]

On the surface, just about everything that Cincinnati Reds lefty Andrew Abbott has been throwing this year is the same as it was during his All Star campaign in 2025. His fastball, never a true heater, is within 0.4 mph of last year’s average, and obviously he’s been pitching in the cooler weather of April. […]
For so many reasons, the San Diego Padres should have won. The San Francisco Giants were coming off a road trip in which they lost all six games, the Friars had one of their aces on the mound in Randy Vásquez and San Francisco had the rookie Trevor McDonald making his 2026 debut. It all […]

The Houston Astros have announced the following moves to the active roster: Alexander will slide into a bullpen desperate for fresh arms. He last pitched April 30th, so he is capable of giving the team multiple relief innings if needed. Harris was 7×31 (.226) with the Astros with a .286 OBP and .576 OPS. Weiss, […]

Tuesday notes… Cubs lineup: Reds lineup: Jameson Taillon, RHP vs. Andrew Abbott, LHP Jameson Taillon has had some good starts this year, some bad, some middling.
