From Salvador Perez’s contract extension to bold predictions in free agency, the duo tackles what’s next for a franchise finally showing signs of life — and […]
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the Atlanta Braves and their organizational loyalty. On one hand, loyalty is generally a good thing. Loyalty requires commitment, and it means sticking with someone even through some hard times. It means being there to offer a helping hand when they need it, and in return, they do […]
Edmundo Sosa is the ultimate utility player. Whether he’s at second base, shortstop, third, or even in the outfield, he’s going to give 100% effort every night. There’s a reason why the bitches love Sosa. 2025 stats: 261 PA, .276/.307/.469, 11 HR, 39 RBI, 21.5 K%, 3.8 BB%, 111 wRC+, 1.6 fWAR What went right: […]
It has been a while since I felt this good on a Friday. Let’s keep the good vibes going! When the Chicago Bears and New York Giants square off this weekend, it will be a classic uniform matchup with the G-Men rocking these fits: Old school fits pic.twitter.com/tDZ9WyGrkz — New York Giants (@Giants) November 5, 2025 We have seen the return of some classic uniform combos this season around the NFL.

Like, immediately soon: News, free at ESPN: Munetaka Murakami, who owns the single-season NPB home run record for a Japanese-born player, will be posted today and will sign with an MLB team by Dec. 22.

The Seattle Seahawks have tweaked their practice squad a bit ahead of their Week 10 game with the Arizona Cardinals. Undrafted rookie free agent tight end Marshall Lang, who was brought in this offseason alongside current 53-man roster player Nick Kallerup, has been added to the practice squad as of Thursday. Starting tight end A.J. […]
Welcome to the 2025 edition of Ranking the Rockies, where we take a look back at every player to log playing time for the Rockies in 2025. The purpose of this list is to provide a snapshot of the player in context. The “Ranking” is an organizing principle that’s drawn from Baseball Reference’s WAR (rWAR). […]
Thanks to a 2024 season that saw him post a 1.07 ERA in 25.1 innings with High-A Brooklyn, a 2.45 ERA in 62.1 innings with Double-A Binghamton, and a 7.53 ERA in 28.2 innings with Triple-A Syracuse, Amazin’ Avenue ranked Brandon Sproat the Mets top prospect coming into the 2025 season. Far from a slam […]
Good morning friends, and happy Friday! To the links! In Mariners news… Around the league…
Perhaps some of you would view a Cubs signing of Dylan Cease as something that would “right a wrong” — that is, Cease was a major part of the deal that brought José Quintana to the Cubs, and Quintana generally wasn’t very good on the North Side, while Cease went on to have some very […]
Heading into the 2025 season, most people who followed the Kansas City Royals’ minor leagues expected that the team would call up Noah Cameron at some point. The 2024 Royals starting rotation was extremely healthy, and there was bound to be some negative regression on the injury front. Cameron, a native of St. Joe, had […]
Happy Friday everyone! Later today the league will announce the Silver Slugger winners for the American League, one day after announcing the NL winners. This year the A’s are one of a handful of teams to have multiple nominees, with the Royals and Yankees leading the AL with four apiece. Catcher Shea Langeliers, designated hitter […]
Good morning, LSB. Kennedi Landry writes that Joc Pederson has exercised his player option for 2026 to stay with the Rangers. The Rangers released start times for their 2026 home schedule. Fangraphs’ Ben Clemens dropped his lost of the top 50 MLB free agents of the offseason. Evan Grant spent a day in the life […]

Leaves. So many leaves. Everywhere leaves. You look so pretty on the trees, but, on the ground, I could not hate you more. Some praise for Colin Rea, and for the Cubs for retaining him for 2026 with the option of 2027 . This is not a guy who turns many heads, but that’s not his job. Instead, Rea is a steady swing-man who can fill in at the back of the rotation if needed – which he was for most of the year – and he put up a 3.95 ERA in the process. It doesn’t stand out as being ...
The Royals have outrighted pitchers Kyle Wright and Sam Long to the Omaha Storm Chasers, according to their transaction log. Long struggled this year with a 5.36 ERA in 39 relief outings. Wright was placed on outright waivers earlier this week, but the moves remove Long from the 40-man roster, bringing it to 35. Update: […]
Kyle Schwarber had a historic season at a perfect time, as the 2025 MVP finalist is hitting the open market in free agency as arguably the second best available hitter behind Kyle Tucker. Most insiders agree that a reunion with the Phillies seems likely, but as we discussed yesterday with J.T. Realmuto, that is not […]
When Jeremiah Jackson arrived in the Orioles organization as a minor league signing around this time last year, there was not much fanfare. At that point, he was a 24-year-old who had never made it above the Double-A level and his most recent season with the Mets did not suggest he was on the way […]
In Today’s Links: adjustments our in-division rivals have been making, where does the Seattle Seahawks O stand at this point amongst the league, more on the Rashid Shaheed trade, injury reports, Sam Darnold talk, and much more! Thanks for being here. Happy Friday! #np Black Bag Seahawks News The Cardinals upgraded at QB in the […]
Junior Caminero, Yandy Díaz and Brandon Lowe have been named American League (AL) finalists for Silver Slugger Awards at third base, designated hitter and second base, respectively. None won the award. Junior Caminero Caminero, 22, was named a finalist alongside Boston’s Alex Bregman and Cleveland’s José Ramírez. The native of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic slashed .264/.311/.535 […]
(This is not a Big Board question, though it could be. I think right now, any guesses to that effect would not even be educated, and that seems like the wrong thing for the Big Board.) Back before the 2025 season, I wrote an article that the 2025 bullpen could look a bit different than […]
Happy Friday, everyone, and now that the free agency market is open following the end of the qualifying offer window, things are about to get very exciting around baseball over the coming months. It should be interesting to see what teams make an effort to compete next year (will the Dodgers try to make a […]
We’re into November and while the current Orange don’t have a lot to play for, let’s look back at the former Orange on NFL rosters: Arizona Cardinals: Garrett Williams Williams returned to Arizona’s line-up and made three tackles in the win at Dallas. Atlanta Falcons: Matthew Bergeron Bergeron played just three snaps against New England […]
Throughout his first full campaign in pinstripes, Jazz Chisholm Jr. built on the success he enjoyed with the Yankees after his midseason arrival from the Marlins in 2024. The 2025 season saw the flashy infielder finally settle back into his natural second base position, represent the Bombers in the All-Star Game and Home Run Derby, […]
It is the beginning of the offseason, and the blockbuster signings of the winter are steaming and brewing. But, for now, we wait and wonder what the Dodgers will do this time around after two exorbitant offseason spending sprees. Old friend Kenta Maeda, who spent four seasons with the Dodgers from 2016-19, won’t be on […]
