1919 White Sox center fielder Happy Felsch tied a 15-year-old record set by Harry Bay for most chances in a nine-inning game: 12. He had 11 putouts and one assist (Jack Graney, doubled off of first base) in the 3-2 loss to Cleveland at Comiskey Park. That record still stands in the American League, since […]

Injuries forced Sheets’ role to change However, injuries to Jake Cronenworth, Ramon Laureano, and Miquel Andujar forced the Padres to revamp their starting lineup. The biggest […]
Last week, we learned that Garrett Crochet had been cleared to throw weighted plyometric balls as he attempts to recover from two injuries: the initial shoulder inflammation that landed him on the IL, and the subsequent lat tightness that has kept him on it for much longer than anyone anticipated.

I haven’t seen any mocks sending Ruiz to the Phillies or any rumors reported on interest from the Phillies, but it’s hard to miss the similarities to picks during the Barber/Mattingly/Dombrowski regime. Ruiz is old for the class (turned 19 in March), is an up the middle defender, has a contact over power approach, but […]
Phillies fans, there’s good news and there’s bad news. The good news is, you’re killing it in your efforts to elect Brandon Marsh to a starting outfield spot on the National League All Star team.

The Cincinnati Reds snuck into the playoffs in 2025 after leaning heavily on their pitching staff and were quickly eliminated, as their offensive flaws were amplified.
