Stephen Jones: Cowboys have accomplished a lot this offseason

This offseason has been a busy one for the Dallas Cowboys. At the beginning of it they did a fair amount of reassessing in figuring out just what went wrong in 2025. Clearly there were a lot of contending options. Much of the focus since has been on the defensive side of the ball. Dallas […]

Red Sox News & Links: The strikeout that wasn’t

So Johan Oviedo’s Red Sox career hasn’t started the way anyone would’ve liked. Oviedo didn’t crack the rotation out of spring training and then was roughed up in his first relief appearance against the Astros on Monday, displaying a concerning dip in velocity. But Andrew Bailey and The Run Prevention Unit have some ideas as […]

Value of Things: Is the number two WR in house?

One of the talking points of the offseason is the improvement of the offense. We have focused most of our attention on the offensive line, running game, and the quarterback.

Colts GM and scouts are drafting for their jobs.

The draft will be in Pittsburgh in less than a month and the Colts have seven picks to try and address six varying degrees of need. Andrew Aziz gave us these six needs last week and I not only agree with the positions, but the order of importance as well. A quick recap of the […]

‘He’s got it’: Flyers react to Porter Martone’s eye-catching NHL debut

Tuesday night was a night that a 19-year-old waited his entire life for. It was an accomplishment that had thousands of hours of dedication behind it. Porter Martone made his NHL debut for the Philadelphia Flyers. The winger wrapped up his college career, having a one-and-done year at Michigan State and unfortunately falling short in the NCAA tournament but he proved to be one of the best players in the country this season and one of the best players in the last decade to play college the...

In The Lab: Astros Bullpen WAR Projections

As hopefully most of you have seen, I came in on the lower end of win projections for the staff this year. The labs are a great place to go into detail about how we arrive at such things. in short, it isn’t a random guess. The win projections are based on individual WAR projections […]

What worries you the most about the Red Sox shaky start?

Good morning! The Red Sox are bad (right now) but Garrett Crochet is good (almost always) and he pitches today. We are not yet at the point where we need to make vacation plans for October. Having said that, oof. What a frustrating start to the season. To kick off today’s discussion, let’s hear what […]

Bottom Six Minutes: Juraj Slafkovsky looks to be in playoff mode

Every year, as the calendar slowly turns into the month of April, you start to get some real previews of what the NHL playoffs will look like. Tuesday night was one of those previews, with the Montreal Canadiens taking on a likely first-round foe in the Tampa Bay Lightning. It had all the checking and intensity of a playoff game, as the players knew how important the game could be for the final standings, on top of wanting to set the tone for a potential seven-game series to start between them...

UNC Basketball: Sophomore Grades

As we continue our look through the classes, today we bring up the sophomore class. Now, unlike the freshmen yesterday, the sophomore class was pretty disappointing considering that it was mostly transfers. Jonathan Powell Powell easily had the best season amongst the sophomore class. Often finding himself in Coach Davis’s top seven, Powell was often […]

Bucks vs. Mavericks Player Grades: Rollins fuels a rare win

The Milwaukee Bucks got back in the win column, 123-99, against the Dallas Mavericks last night as several familiar faces (including Khris Middleton), were back in town. The Bucks were piping hot, and the Mavs were ice cold—that’s really the main story of the contest. Sometimes, the game really is just about a bucket. Read […]

What to make of some early struggles by Tyler Wells

Happy April Fools day, everyone! I don’t have a trick for you, although some may call any analysis after only five games a “joke.” We’ll call this one an “observation” from Baltimore’s first homestand just to be safe. The Orioles entered the season with plenty of uncertainty in the bullpen. New closer Ryan Helsley looks […]

Colt Keith is swinging harder than ever early this year

My love for Colt Keith knows no bounds. There’s no style of prospect I love more than a middle infielder with plus hit and power tools, which Keith was as he tore his way through the minor leagues. You know I love this guy: in the last month, I’ve written an article about how he […]

Marcus Rashford’s future at Barcelona appears to be growing more complicated amid conflicting speculation about the buy option in his loan deal with the Catalan giants. Cadena SER reported earlier today that Rashford’s €30 million purchase option expired at the end of March and is no longer valid. More updates have now followed which claim […]

The mysterious case of Sidd Finch

The origin of April Fool’s Day remains murky. It appears to have originated in the early to mid-1500s in France. Many people still partake today, pranking family, friends, and co-workers. It’s a bit of a remnant from a time when we didn’t take everything so seriously and could still laugh at ourselves and with others. […]

Maryland baseball steamrolls Richmond, 19-4, in 7 innings

Two weeks ago, Maryland began its six-game loss streak after falling 7-5 against Richmond. That streak ended after a 6-4 victory over No. 12 USC on Saturday.
