Grant Wolfram did enough to stay in the bullpen mix moving forward

Building out a relief corps can often seem like an exercise in futility. Every major league team needs bullpen help. But one way to hedge your bets and give your club some wiggle room is to load up on fringy—and somewhat enticing—relief arms that you can plug and play from Triple-A. The results won’t always […]

Lessons learned from the 2025 Red Sox season

They say you learn more from losses than you do wins, or something like that. 29 of 30 teams end the season without hoisting a trophy, and therefore walk away more educated than the World Series Champion. While I can’t help Jarren Duran learn to catch better or Connor Wong to hit home runs, I […]

OTM Open Thread 10/21: The Stage is set

Happy Tuesday, Red Sox Nation! Last night, the Blue Jays defeated the Mariners to set up a World Series matchup with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Unfortunately, the series doesn’t start until Friday, so we’ve got three days with no baseball until the Fall Classic kicks off. Personally, I’ll be rooting for everyone to have a […]

Today in White Sox History: October 21

1887 Two minor players for the White Sox who just missed playing together on the same South Side squad were born on this day. Lefty outfielder Finners Quinlan, who played for the White Sox in 1915, was born in Scranton, Pa. Farther east in Indianapolis, 1911 shortstop Roy Corhan arrived. Corhan had the better career, […]

Tuesday BP: The World Series is set

And then there were two. The World Series field was officially set on Monday night, following a thrilling baseball game to conclude the ALCS. Thanks to a three-run home run by George Springer in the seventh inning, the Toronto Blue Jays completed their comeback (in both the game and in the series), winning 4-3 (in […]

Kansas City Royals news: A ballpark proposal in Kansas soon?

Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson expects a proposal for a Royals ballpark in the state at the next Legislative Coordinating Council meeting. Masterson chairs the LCC. It has set an end of the year calendar date for the team on whether they’re planning to move to the Sunflower State. “I am anticipating being presented with a proposal […]

Luis De León continues to shine in the Arizona Fall League

The Orioles system features several talented pitchers that could potentially debut in 2026 but cannot be counted as a sure thing quite yet. Michael Forret, Trey Gibson, and Levi Wells make for an intriguing bunch, and Juaron Watts-Brown made an impression after coming over at the trade deadline. Any one of those four could become […]

Chicago Cubs news and notes: Tucker, Imanaga, Shaw, Hoyer.

We cover the coverage like PCA covers center field. Life will be commencing shortly — the World Series will be over, and the Free Agency Freezer will open once again. MLB execs will be more close-mouthed than Edward Teller, or even Raymond Joseph Derickson Teller, and will probably shave their expectations closer than Penn Jillette […]

If I ran the zoo—a return to relevance plan for 2026

“But if I ran the zoo…I’d make a few changes…that’s just what I’d do” The last two months of the 2025 Twins season produced some of the most painful-to-watch baseball this side of 2011-2014 & 2016—if not the That Which Shall Not Be Named late-1990s. Assuming that no major reinforcements are on the way, I […]

Happy Birthday George Bell

George Bell turns 66 today. George Bell was born in San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic. His brother Juan Bell also made the majors as a utility infielder for several teams for seven seasons. He has two other brothers who played professional baseball. The Phillies signed George as an amateur free agent in 1978. The […]

Tuesday Bird Droppings: The World Series is set

Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! The final game of the ALCS was played last night, which means the Fall Classic is nearly upon us. The Toronto Blue Jays staged a dramatic comeback win in game seven to defeat the Mariners and move on to the last round of the postseason. Game one will be played in […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 10/21/25

The World Series matchup is now set. The Blue Jays edged out the Yankees for the AL East crown and then sent them packing for 2025 in a four-game ALDS. Now, they’re on their way to the Fall Classic for the first time in 32 years, as they came back from down 3-1 in the […]
