MLB Rumors — Man, the GM Meetings are absolutely ripping with MLB rumors this year. Much more than usual. That doesn’t mean there’ll be a ton of early movement (I think it’ll just be a normal offseason in that respect). But I had about 50 tabs open this morning with reports and rumors out of Las Vegas.
For your convenience, I’ve collected some of the highlights from those stories, alongside my own perspective, below. Let’s dive in!
Starting Pitcher Trade Market
No surprises here...
Things keep progressing positively for LeBron James as he prepares for his return to the basketball court. LeBron will now reportedly be practicing with the South Bay Lakers. There appear to be no restrictions on James, as this practice also includes 5-on-5 action. LeBron has yet to make his season debut with the Lakers. He […]
The Cleveland Browns have officially signed WR Kaden Davis to the active roster from the practice squad today ahead of their game against the Baltimore Ravens this weekend. Davis, officially in his fourth season after signing with the Denver Broncos as a UDFA in 2022, has been a fan favorite in Cleveland throughout the 2025 […]
The New York Giants are shaking things up again — this time at quarterback. Interim head coach Mike Kafka announced Wednesday that Jameis Winston will start Sunday against the Green Bay Packers while rookie Jaxson Dart remains in concussion protocol.
Around the NFL: Giants Turn to Jameis Winston,
The move pushes veteran Russell Wilson down the depth chart to QB3 and comes just days after the team dismissed head coach Brian Daboll following a fourth straight loss.
Dart suffered a...
Ohio State basketball finally feels like it has a clear identity again, and that starts with Bruce Thornton. Now in his third season as a Buckeye, the 6-foot-2 point guard has transformed from a talented young prospect into the unquestioned heartbeat of the program. Under Jake Diebler’s leadership, Thornton has become not just Ohio State’s […]

A season that looked very dead and on life support the first couple of months has now regained life as the Kentucky Wildcats cruised past the Florida Gators 38-7 to improve to 4-5 (2-5) this past Saturday night. They’ve not only won back-to-back games for the first time this season, which put them in striking […]
The Washington Spirit are back in the semifinals, and their home match at Audi Field sold out in record time—just three days. Last year, the Spirit sold out “Rowdy Audi” for the semifinals in just 72 hours. This year, it took only 64 hours, breaking the club record. The match is the club’s fourth consecutive […]
Last week, at the NFL trade deadline, the Las Vegas Raiders only made one trade as they sent starting wide receiver Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars for fourth and sixth-round picks in 2026. New general manager John Spytek didn’t pull off any other trades. There had been some chatter that centered around tight end […]
At the moment, the Raiders have 17 pending free agents after this season (in addition to 2 ERFA and 4 RFA). At roughly the halfway point the compensatory pick values for pending free agents is starting to come into picture with being able to project future contracts and the snap counts as well. For the […]
How Acquired Jesús was acquired via a trade from the Houston Astros for cash considerations on August 7th. What Were Expectations? There were not any expectations for Jesús, given the fact that he was acquired during the season! He was acquired for depth in the organization due to multiple injuries in the organization at the […]
Here’s the latest evidence that the Dallas Mavericks (3-8) need to chuck the two-timeline nonsense out the window and focus on the team’s young core of players. Amid all the torment and injury struggle, all the insincere win-now rhetoric and the roster construction favoring tall men with long arms, one of the only effective offensive […]
The Wisconsin Badgers had a big 86-55 win over the Ball State Cardinals on Tuesday, starting off fast for the second consecutive game and never trailing from there. It was Wisconsin’s most consistent game to date, as they played clean basketball for 30 minutes, with the end of the first half being the lone gaffe […]
Will the Knicks ever lose a game again? Will New Yorkers ever watch their team drop one inside MSG? We don’t know about that, but we surely heard the protagonist of yet another home win talk a bunch in the past few hours. Mike Brown On Ja Morant and the Grizzlies: “[The Grizzlies are] really […]
Heading into the final day before the trade deadline this season, the 2025 Yankees had a lot of question marks, but none loomed larger than the bullpen, both for 2025 and beyond. And so, Brian Cashman had himself a busy day at the deadline, pulling in David Bednar from the Pittsburgh Pirates, Jake Bird from […]
That was cool, I guess. If you like your team beating other teams at football and your team is the Dolphins, then that worked out great. We can’t say that often this year, so let’s appreciate it while we can. Happy Random Sunday, everyone! There was not much hope coming in Heading into Week 10 […]
Cue the sounds of shattering glass, or perhaps the whomp whomp of a sad trombone. The dreams of a College Football Playoff berth are now down the drain for Mizzou. After a 38-17 loss at home to Texas A&M last weekend, the Tigers’ season has reached a turning point. A season that began with championship […]
The Tar Heels came back to Earth a little bit on Tuesday night against Radford, fighting through a sloppy, heavily-whistled game to come out with a 15-point win. They’ll hope their next game against a mid-major program goes a little more smoothly as they host friend of the program Levelle Moton and his N.C. Central […]
We are back for another week discussing bowl teams. Our team at Mountain West Connection will be releasing our bowl projections each week. This week’s round of projections can be seen below and will likely change as the season progresses. Read our projections below and leave your own in the comments. Mike Los Angeles Bowl: […]
Look, I understand. You lose your starting QB to a broken leg, and it’s really easy to fold up for the rest of the season. A lot of the season aspirations have either been accomplished already or dashed. Now, it’s all about everyone else staying healthy and making it to a bowl game. Except rolling […]
André Burakovsky was not at the Blackhawks’ morning skate on Wednesday. Head coach Jeff Blashill indicated he’s a game-time decision.
With that in mind — and both Jason Dickinson (who did skate Wednesday morning but isn’t ready to return yet) and Frank Nazar out of the lineup, the Blackhawks need another forward body to fill a lineup.
Blashill said after the morning skate that Landon Slaggert will be recalled and go if Burakovsky cannot.
Blashill also said Slaggert’s time in Roc...
The reinforcements have arrived. With the Tampa Bay Lightning ailing a bit, the team recalled a couple of veterans from the Syracuse Crunch. Forwards Boris Katchouk and Scott Sabourin caught the plane ride down from the bitter cold to the chilly, but much nicer Tampa weather to help bolster a squad that is a little down right now.
With Dominic James definitely missing tonight’s action, and Pontus Holmberg probably out as well, the Bolts needed to add some depth to their bottom-six. Ryan M...
Three big players have recently announced they will leave their clubs as free agents. Defender Kaleigh Kurtz will part ways with the NC Courage as a free agent. She has played eight seasons with the Courage since signing in 2018, and has been an integral part of the team. During her years with the Courage, […]
The NBA has announced a change to February’s All-Star format, pitting the best from the US against the world’s top international talent. In the 2026 NBA All-Star Game, two teams of U.S. players and one team of international players (known as the World team) will compete in a round-robin tournament featuring four 12-minute games. The […]
