Tuesday notes… Cubs lineup: Padres lineup: Edward Cabrera, RHP vs. Walker Buehler, RHP Edward Cabrera’s Cubs career has started out well. He’s allowed no more than three earned runs in any of his five starts (two unearned runs last Thursday helped force extras), and he’s allowed just two home runs in 29.2 innings. His K […]
Welcome, Calum McFarlane’s Blue and White Army to the FA Cup semifinal. Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to dispatch one of the weaker teams in the Premier League and reach the final against Manchester City. Recently, this team have chosen not to accept the challenge. Can we change that today? João […]
Meet the Mets Yesterday’s game between the Mets and Rockies at Citi Field was postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up as part of a single-admission doubleheader today with first pitch of Game 1 scheduled for 1:40pm ET. Nolan McLean will pitch the first game and Kodai Senga, yesterday’s scheduled starter, […]
The tone in Kris Knoblauch’s voice signals to me he’s toying with the idea. When questioned after Edmonton Oilers practice, he sounded like he’s leaning toward the decision, but won’t say it yet. If he had a dog to walk around his hotel, he’d do the Don Cherry trick and ask Blue who he should…
One thing that is absolutely, undeniably true about sports is that all winning streaks must end, sometime. Thus we knew that eventually, the Cubs would lose another game after going on their longest winning streak since the World Series year of 2016. It’s not always pretty when winning streaks end and that was the case […]
The Los Angeles Rams’ 2026 NFL Draft class wasn’t defined as much by who they added as it was by who they didn’t address. General manager Les Snead and head coach Sean McVay once again leaned into a selective, value-based approach rather than aggressively filling every perceived need. That philosophy has paid off in the […]
When the Arizona Cardinals took Miami QB Carson Beck with the first spot in the third round, was this something that was supposed to happen? Were the Cardinals actually looking to take a signalcaller in this year’s draft, or wait until next year? The QB room was already full with Jacoby Brissett, Gardner Minshew, and […]
Saturday saw the Yankees extend their win streak as they picked up another fairly comfortable win over the Astros. Trent Grisham, José Caballero, and Austin Wells all homered as the Yankees picked up the win to take their eighth consecutive game. The win streak has seen the Yankees vault towards the top of the standings […]
We are now far enough into the college baseball season that we’re not that far away from starting to seriously start thinking about seeds and hosting for the NCAA Tournament. North Carolina is in pretty good position on that front, especially having won a series last weekend over Georgia Tech, with both teams ranked #2 […]
It’s a tale as old as time. You read about the NFL Draft for months, do some mock drafts, and maybe even watch some YouTube cutups of guys you want to learn more about. You feel prepared, and then inevitably, your team picks a player on Day 3 you didn’t even know existed. The Pittsburgh […]

The team’s Ace returned to the mound last night in Atlanta and had a solid season debut. Wheeler was coming back from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery and what to expect of him was something of a mystery. His velocity vacillated between good and concerning during his rehab starts, but on Saturday, he mostly maintained it […]
Like the rest of the NL Central, the St. Louis Cardinals have been at or above .500 for the majority of the season, but despite outperforming expectations, they find themselves in the middle of the way-too-early division race. Thanks to Jordan Walker, rookie JJ Wetherholt, and a new hero each win, the Cardinals have been […]
The 2026 draft is in the books. The Cowboys started off strong – their trade-up in the first may have been the highlight of this draft – and continued to add a lot of speed, athleticism, and football IQ to the team over the last three days. The crew at the Dallas Morning News gets […]
The Colorado Avalanche have battled through three tightly contested games thus far in their first-round series, emerging victorious despite, among other things, the stifling defensive tactics employed by the Los Angeles Kings. With a victory today, the Avalanche can be the first team in the Western Conference to advance to the second round of the […]
One of the best stories of the end of Barcelona’s season is the return of Gavi. After a true injury nightmare that included two different surgeries on the same knee that cost him two years of his career, The Warrior is back in the lineup and playing at a very high level. Gavi looks in […]
The 2026 NFL Draft completed without any of last year’s Syracuse Orange team members hearing their name called as a draft pick. However, those players can look to Justin Barron, Alijah Clark, Jackson Meeks, Marlowe Wax and Savion Washington last season as hope to make teams via the undrafted free agency route. Let’s see where […]
Obviously the NFL draft is about adding players. But what if you already added a player via draft? Then the NFL draft becomes a time to evaluate the trade based on opportunity cost. The Kansas City Chiefs picked up pass rusher Joshua Uche in 2024 at the trade deadline in exchange for a 2026 NFL […]
A lot of things went right for the Penguins in their Game 4 win over the Flyers. A handful of them: Add it all up and it’s enough to earn another game. There are still some problem areas, Anthony Mantha looks like he’s at half-speed at times and is a shell of the player who […]
Everton were the hosts at Goodison Park today but they didn’t get where they’re currently at by trying to boil the ocean. Instead the extremely conservative side were comfortable with sitting back and cushioning Chelsea Women’s heavy pressure as the Blues looked extremely keen on beating Everton to a pulp. Their strategy almost went fully […]
The end of the 7th round is not the end of the scramble for players for the 32 NFL franchises. As soon as Mr. Irrelevant is picked at #257, another round of recruiting begins as general managers pick up the phones to invite hundreds of undrafted players to sign free agent contracts, basically offering them […]
Who is he and where did he come from? He’s Chad Samuel Tracy and he comes from the land of baseball lifers. While he is decidedly not the Chad Tracy who spent the bulk of a mid-sized career with the Diamondbacks in the early part of this century, this Chad Tracy has spent his entire […]
The Cleveland Browns completed last year in good shape with the defensive backfield group. But Ronnie Hickman wasn’t re-signed before the year ended, then was given a restricted free agent tender on March 26. Will he return? Will he end up with another club? Hickman did show up for the start of offseason programming. Veteran […]

The 2026 NFL Draft is over, and now has come the time when everyone picks apart every team’s draft. Who won? What grade did they get? Why did that team reach, or how did that general manager get another steal? All of this is speculation, and all of it is extremely premature. But we indulge, […]
