The Vegas Golden Knights showed this past season that they were true contenders, and they’ll be looking to finish the job next season. Unfortunately, some people won’t be able to go on the run with them, as contracts and other things get in the way. Pavel Dorofeyev recently getting traded to the New York Rangers […]

It took the Astros’ offense 7 innings to get into gear, but they were able to hit the gas when they needed to. The Houston Astros (42-44) climbed out of a 3-0 hole early to come back and defeat the Detroit Tigers (35-49) 7-5 in 10 innings today at Comerica Park. It is the the […]
Anthony Kay didn't have it, and the White Sox offense couldn't quite bring it.
Kay gave up runs in each of the four innings he started, immediately squandering a pair of early leads provided by the Sox offense. Five White Sox relievers kept the Royals scoreless to keep the game within reach, but five Royals relievers kept the White Sox scoreless, and so the 5-4 final score was frozen in place after 3½ innings.

When the Athletics traded their star closer Mason Miller last July, they knew they were doing so purely for the future. That future is not yet here, and nor is it close. But the present is making for some uncomfortable viewing. The San Diego Padres had landed one of the sport’s most electric pitchers, a […]

Despite carrying an expensive payroll, the New York Mets have been the most disappointing team in baseball, languishing in last place in the National League East. On Sunday, they showed exactly why they’re such a bad team as they continually let the Phillies off to hook. The Phillies offense did just enough – including yet […]
The Royals rallied early in a back-and-forth game, to beat the White Sox 5-4. It ends a 4-game losing streak and a 6-game losing streak to the White Sox. Lane Thomas led off the game with a single and stole second. He went to third on Bobby Witt Jr.’s deep flyout to center. Carter Jensen […]
The story of the Detroit Tigers disastrous 2026 season can be told via the injury list and the bullpen’s inability to hold leads with any consistency. The latter has been on display all season, despite no major injuries to core pieces, and they blew it again with a little help from a bad defensive play. […]
The Milwaukee Brewers have an argument that they are in as great a shape as any team heading into July. They hold the top spot in the National League Central with a 50-30 record, and could make some additions to bolster the roster. There are a few needs that Milwaukee has, but let’s take a [...]
We may be tracking toward seeing a bright blue glove back on the mound for the Atlanta Braves later this summer. In an interview with BravesVision, Braves president of baseball operations and GM Alex Anthopolous shared that AJ Smith-Shawver will make a start in Single-A with the Augusta GreenJackets to kick off his rehab assignment.

Tampa Bay Rays star Junior Caminero accomplished another wild feat on Sunday. This time, he did something that hadn’t been done for more than a decade. He joined Philadelphia Phillies star Bryce Harper on a very special list. “Junior Caminero has 7 homers in his last 6 games,” MLB reporter Sarah Langs posted to X, […]

After three demoralizing games in a row against the Phillies, it was back to business for the Washington Nationals. They grinded out yet another road series win, this time against the Orioles. Luis Garcia Jr. is the hottest hitter in all of baseball right now, and he carried the offense in this one. As mentioned, […]
After late-inning shenanigans in many of the Rockies’ recent games, the Colorado Rockies came into their Sunday afternoon rubber match against the Minnesota Twins looking for another series win. However, the Rockies’ bats went quiet against the Twins pitching staff, wasting a fairly well-pitched game by their own arms. Another quality start for Ryan Feltner […]

Kyle Schwarber leads the Phillies and MLB with 30 home runs.
The Rays signed infielder Nick Madrigal to a minor league contract, as per Madrigal’s MLB.com profile page. It was a short trip in free agency for Madrigal, who just returned to the open market a few days ago when he declined an outright assignment to the Angels’ Triple-A squad. After missing the entire 2025 season […]
The St. Louis Cardinals are going through a bit of turbulence. If their slide continues, Chaim Bloom could hit the reset button and trade these veterans.
Baltimore starter Kyle Bradish only allowed one hit today against the Nationals. If you’re looking for a positive story, you should probably stop reading now. The lack of hits did not bring the desired results. Bradish walked five hitters in only four innings of work, and Washington’s Luis García Jr. tortured Baltimore in a 6-4 […]

After being swept by the presiding World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers this past week, the Minnesota Twins were looking for a “get right” series this weekend with the Colorado Rockies. They got it–taking two-of-three from the Colorado kids and keeping their quest for .500 in the right direction. Twins SP Connor Prielipp’s afternoon did not […]
The Texas Rangers scored three runs while the Toronto Blue Jays scored two runs. We can start by noting that the Rangers scored in the first inning of every game in this series. For a club often victimized by first inning runs, striking first proved to be an invaluable weapon for Texas this weekend in […]

Six in a row, and what a stupid way to get there. The losing streak now stands at six. These last two series were important, as Houston and Texas are significant rivals for the third wildcard spot. It’s hard not to conclude that the Jays have shown that they can’t hang with even badly scuffling […]

It was always going to be a rough outing for the Diamondbacks today. The Rays were going for the series sweep that would keep them in possession of first place in the AL East. Tampa sent Drew Rasmussen to the mound, he of the 2.62 ERA. Rasmussen wasted no time in the first inning, getting […]
