What to know about Falcons – Saints in Week 12

This is the big week. The Falcons and Saints are squaring off, and that always brings out the burning bile from both fanbases. It’s just that both teams haven’t been quite this sorry in a long time. But there’s still plenty of invective to go around, and if the Falcons are dead in the water, […]

The Minnesota Twins Breakfast Club

Two days ago, I turned 40 years old. On one hand, my body is feeling it. Year #39 has been challenging from a health perspective. A severe noro-virus wiped me out at the beginning of the year, my 6’8” frame finally proved too much for my lower back (though strengthening PT has helped a lot!), […]

2025 MVBrewers #5: Christian Yelich

Yankees Potential Free Agent Target: Zac Gallen

With Gerrit Cole and Clarke Schmidt both recovering from Tommy John surgery to various degrees, Carlos Rodón out for at least the start of 2026, and the rest of the rotation bar Max Fried talented but inconsistent or still unproven, the Yankees could very well take a shot at a starting pitcher acquisition this winter. […]

Of prospect runways and when they take-off

I’m going to tell you a story about a young prospect.  An outfielder, no less.  Tall and rangy.  His most noticeable tool is his power, but he is not one-dimensional.  He isn’t the greatest right-fielder anyone has seen, but he is playable.  He was what the Cardinals needed, really had since Matt Holliday aged out.  […]

New Energy in Blacksburg? The Intangible Story Line of James Franklin’s Arrival Sets Stage for Massive Recruiting Weekend and a Shot at Miami Spoiler Redemption

What if opposing pitchers actually feared Rockies hitters again?

Maybe it’s Blake Street Bomber nostalgia.  Maybe it’s missing power hitters like Todd Helton, Carlos Gozález, prime Charlie Blackmon, Nolan Arenado and Trevor Story. Maybe it’s just wanting to have a fun, competitive baseball team again. But after each season, especially as Arenado and Story left town, I feel like it’s become my after-season tradition […]
