The 2026 NBA Trade Deadline passed last week with barely a blip from the Portland Trail Blazers.

With the final whistle blown on the 2025–26 NFL season, we have reached one of my favorite times of the year: Mock draft season has officially arrived.

The Cubs are adding some starting pitching depth: Kyle Wright was the Braves’ first-round pick (seventh overall) in 2017 out of Vanderbilt and was a Top 100 prospect three years in a row (2018, 2019, 2020). He made his MLB debut with the Braves in 2019 and joined their rotation full-time in 2022, when he […]

Do y’all remember the time when Baseball Prospectus would drop their annual PECOTA projections and there would be gnashing of teeth and rending of garments on the Braves Country corner of the internet?

Other than 2014 and 2015, when Levine Toilolo and Jacob Tamme were starters, they have made the necessary investments to ensure the starting tight end is a difference maker. Kyle Pitts has received many labels in his career. No […]
