We know the Los Angeles Dodgers are headed back to the World Series on the NL side after holding the Milwaukee Brewers to just four runs and 14 hits in four games. And, of course, that was punctuated by Shohei Ohtani’s once-in-a-lifetime 10-strikeout/three-homer game on Friday night to punch their ticket. Geno Suárez also hit […]

2025 stats: 65.2 IP, 21 G (10 GS), 4.80 ERA / 4.96 FIP, 1.492 WHIP, 22.8 K%, 12.4 BB%, 0.0 fWAR Some of us will spend most of this offseason wondering what happened to Hayden Birdsong. It’s not just that the 6’4” 23-year old who captured hearts and minds last season only to lay a […]
It is… close? The Arizona Cardinals offense looks fine but I guess between playing a good defense and having a backup quarterback it is pretty good to be winning 13-6 at halftime. The run game continues to be an issue, while the passing attack is getting yards when it matters. I got a text from […]
Being at the helm of a Major League Baseball franchise for an eternity is a special honor for an exclusive group of team executives. The average lifespan for a front office member is five-and-a-half years. A.J. Preller has outlasted some of the top business leaders in the United States, as he completed his 11th season […]
The qualifying offer is one of the key mechanisms of free agent season, as teams have until five days after the end of the World Series to decide whether or not to issue the one-year contract (this winter worth $22.025MM) to eligible free agents. If a player has played with his team throughout the entire…
It is an 8:00 Easter start time. Just win Jays. The good news is George Springer is playing. Hopefully he’ll be able to swing the bat and run the bases. I wouldn’t look for any stolen bases. But a home run or two would be a good thing. Tonight’s lineup: And, of course, Trey Yesavage […]
I’ve been thinking about how to start this article for two days, but all of my thoughts can succinctly be distilled into two words. That sucked. The 2025 regular season was filled with excitement and hope that the Brewers would finally return to the World Series for the first time since 1982. Those aspirations were […]

It was less than a year ago that the Cardinals made the decision to move three-time All-Star Willson Contreras to first base after the veteran slugger indicated he wasn’t interested in waiving his no-trade clause to leave St. Louis ahead of their impending rebuild. That decision was intended to open up the catcher position so…

On September 19, 2024, I had the luck and privilege to see what was easily the greatest offensive day in the history of the sport. Shohei Ohtani created the first 50/50 club with such aplomb, we were unlikely to ever see its like ever again. Never mind that he made another 50/50 club in 2025. […]
It is here. Well, after the game it is here, as the Arizona Cardinals have a two lane road heading into the bye week. On one side a playoff spot is virtually impossible as 2-5 would mean they would likely need to go 8-2 down the stretch. On the other side, it would be really […]
