Carlos Tejera is the rare international prospect to hit his way to a U.S. league as a 17-year-old. The Pirates are bought in on his upside. The post Pirates’ Carlos Tejera Hits His Way To U.S. As 17-Year-Old appeared first on College Baseball, MLB Draft, Prospects - Baseball America .
Tuesday night against Utah was the first time in roughly nine games that I felt like the Oilers gave us a glimpse of their “A” game. We really haven’t seen them reach that level since their win over the Vancouver Canucks back on October 11. Since then, they’ve had three other victories, but none of…
A few weeks ago, we detailed the case for the Phillies to pursue Nippon Professional Baseball star Munetaka Murakami. The lefty slugger is sure to be the biggest name looking to make the jump from Japan to the Major Leagues, but he won’t be the only Japanese star to be posted this winter. In the […]
The Steelers are trying to get back in the win column after two straight losses. To do so, they’ll have to beat one of the hottest teams in footbal in the 7-1 Colts. I spoke with Chris Shepherd of Stampede Blue ahead of the contest. 1. The Colts are one of the biggest surprises of the […]
Rafael Louzán, the president of the RFEF, has played down the clash between Dani Carvajal and Lamine Yamal during El Clasico. The Real Madrid captain confronted 18-year-old Yamal, his international team-mate, at the end of the game after being riled by some pre-match banter from the youngster. Angry scenes followed as both sets of players become […]
The first “half” of the season couldn’t have gone much better for the Los Angeles Rams. They sit at 5-2 and were competitive in both of their close losses. While there were significant questions about the health of Matthew Stafford and the offensive line in the early going of the season, those uncertainties have been […]
It’s Week 9 and the New Orleans Saints (1-7) find themselves on the road to face the Los Angeles Rams (5-2) at SoFi Stadium on Sunday. It all started for these two teams back on September 17, 1967, which saw the Rams defeat the Saints 27-13 in Tulane Stadium. Sunday will be the 80th time […]
On Sunday night, the Green Bay Packers got one of their more complete games of the season in their 35-25 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. But it was hardly perfect, as the team had plenty of issues in the first half that required a big second half performance to overcome. Three three-and-outs before halftime were […]
When the Calgary Flames are ready to trade Nazem Kadri, there won't be a shortage of suitors to take a run at him. Plenty of teams are searching for a top-6 center and Kadri could absolutely fill the void. In Calgary, he is the go-to, but when he takes a little bit of a lesser role, his game elevates to an even higher level. Darren Dreger said, "There are other Canadian markets, namely the Canadiens, Canucks, maybe the Leafs, that could absolutely envision a #2 experienced center like Nazem Ka...
This Boise State RB helped Fresno own the Milk Can. He wants BSU to get it back It’s not every day that a player has experienced both sides of a rivalry, but that’s the case for Boise State, and former Fresno State running back Malik Sherrod. The Broncos host the Bulldogs this Saturday at 1:30 […]
Here we go again… Recently, in discussions over cigars, cognac and counting the billions we all make writing about the Houston Texans, the BRB masthead tossed around the idea of the team doing poorly vs teams with a top notch pass rush. Currently, the 3 teams considered to have the best pass rush in the […]
The first half of the 2025 NFL season has gone about as expected for the Cleveland Browns. That is to say, it has been like far too many seasons before it. A combination of a tough schedule, an ineffective offense, and a defense that has a knack for coming up short at just the wrong […]
With the bye week now in the rearview mirror, the Detroit Lions are back in action in Week 9, hosting the Minnesota Vikings for the first of their two games this season. To break things down ahead of Sunday, Meko and Morgan (me) are back with another episode of “Before the Roar,” where we discuss […]
By now, entering the halfway point of the 2025 NFL season, we have a pretty good idea where exactly the Dallas Cowboys are ranked around the league. Offensively they have one of the best units in league, but on the flipside, they are no doubt among the worst defensive units in the league, if not […]
Teams: Syracuse Orange (3-5, 1-4) vs North Carolina Tar Heels (2-4, 0-3) Day & Time: Friday, October 31, 7:30 pm Location: JMA Wireless Dome, Syracuse, NY Line: It’s as close as you can get, but Syracuse is just a favorite, getting -2.5 points according to Fanduel’s odds. TV/Streaming: ESPN, WatchESPN Radio: Cuse.com, TK 99/105, WAER […]
Here’s why I’m NOT worried about Saturday afternoon when the red and black meet the ugly orange with a wildly mismatched blue: 1. Florida really doesn’t have a rushing game; they’ve only had 3 running plays greater than 20 yards all season (and none greater than 30). This adds up to only 4 yards a […]
Fortunately, the Gophers return home for a week. How to WatchTV: BTNTime: 2:30Stream: FoxSports.com I know that Michigan State is 0-5 in the Big Ten and the Gophers are undefeated at home this season. But the Spartans have played a fairly rigorous conference schedule facing four teams who have been ranked at one point this […]
The last time UNC Football played on a Friday night, it was the first time all season that they put up a fight against a Power Four opponent — the first sign we’d seen all season of a semblance of progress. Two weeks later, they’ll be looking to take that next step and find an […]
The history of baseball is littered with players that, while not stars, managed to leave an indelible mark on a season, a team, or even the sport at large. While Brandon Young has not yet made it to that level of cult hero, he was certainly responsible for some of the most memorable moments of […]
Game Eleven: Dallas Stars (6-3-1) at Tampa Bay Lightning (4-4-2) Time: 7:00 PM EST Location: Amalie Arena, City of Lightning TV/Stream/Radio: TNT, TruTV, HBO Max 102.5 FM, Lightning App (radio broadcast) Odds: Lightning -145 Know the Opponents: Defending Big D It seems like the Tampa Bay Lightning have shaken off some of their early-season struggles as they’ve pulled off wins in their last three games. Is it enough to say that they are definitively “back”? Well, l...
Sure would be nice if baseball current event-y stuff happened to fuel these, but I guess the World Series has to end before that. Anyway, see the title. I’m not asking about the best logo, just the worst. Nor is it limited to baseball. Once upon a time, there was a website called LogoServer, which […]
Dan Lanning Bye Week Availability Jackson Shelstad seeing steady progress, return date still to be determined Week 8 Ducks vs Them Coast to Coast Episode 1 Highlight of the Day: Big man Touchdown to Gernorris Wilson
Duke (4-3, 3-1) travels to Death Valley on Saturday to face Clemson (3-4, 2-3) at 12:00 pm with television coverage provided by the ACC Network. Clemson is a 3.5 points favorite. Clemson started the season with National Title aspirations ranked number four in the AP Poll but the season has been a struggle to date […]
After beating Sassuolo in a difficult 1-0 match on Sunday, Gian Piero Gasperini and the Giallorossi immediately turned the page to their next opponent, Parma. With only two days of rest between games and tough fixtures against AC Milan and Rangers looming next week, Roma might have been forgiven if they played a bit flat […]
Morning, all! Jacob deGrom has been named the American League Comeback Player of the Year on the strength of a 2.97 ERA in 172 innings. Catching prospect Malcolm Moore hasn’t been able to carry forward his momentum from the start of the Arizona Fall League season, with his performance both at and behind the plate. […]
The Virginia Tech football program was built on defense under Frank Beamer and Bud Foster. The defense has fallen off after the Beamer regime ended, and the Hokies’ identity doesn’t seem to have the same blue-collar mentality Beamer built in Blacksburg. Brent Pry went with an NFL hire for his new defensive coordinator this year, […]
