The Dodgers made a trade on their off day Thursday, acquiring right-handed pitcher Chayce McDermott from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for minor league pitcher Axel Perez. McDermott, 27, started this season in Triple-A Norfolk, where struck out nine of his 28 batters faced (a 32.1-percent strikeout rate), but also walked six and allowed four […]
The Los Angeles Rams made waves on Thursday by announcing changes to their uniforms and logos. The team is not done rolling out new uniforms this year. Buried in their video outlining the changes was a nod to two new alternate jerseys that are expected this summer. Here are the Rams’ current uniform options: The […]
Matthew Stafford might play three or four more years with the Los Angeles Rams, but that will never stop the content about what the Rams are going to do to replace him. Rich Eisen stepped in for the clicks this week, suggesting that the Rams have a fork in the road ahead between drafting Alabama […]
Unfortunately for the Lakers, there hasn’t been much positive injury news regarding their two biggest stars, Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves. Both missed the last five games of the regular season and have been ruled out indefinitely. Reaves is dealing with a Grade 2 oblique strain with a timetable of 4-6 weeks, and Dončić is […]
With the Lakers set to begin their playoff run, now is a perfect time as any to unpack a question that’s nearly as old as basketball itself… What matters more: offense or defense? There are clichés such as “offense wins games and defense wins championships” that have been used for ages, but what’s the actual […]
With the 2026 NFL draft quickly approaching, the Los Angeles Rams must be focused on drafting for the now, not the future. Right now, the future is secondary with the Super Bowl window gaping open. The Rams finished as the second-best team in the league last season. After falling short of a second crack at […]
For a position group often defined by brute strength and physical dominance, Rob Havenstein is making it clear that the Los Angeles Rams’ offensive line must be built on something far less visible—but just as critical: focus. In a recent clip shared by Rams Tapes, Havenstein emphasized that focus is not just a helpful quality […]
The minute both Luka Dončić and Austin Reaves were diagnosed with their respective grade-two muscle injuries, the Lakers immediately became the team every other Western Conference playoff entrant wanted to face. JJ Redick said as much at the end of the regular season and no amount of medical treatment – whether here or in Spain […]
After Monday night’s heavyweight fight, Tuesday’s dud, and Wednesday’s pull-a-“W”-out-of-the-hat magic trick, this wacky and often less-than-fun series with the Angels wraps up this afternoon. The Yankees get to hand the ball to their ace, Max Fried, while the Angels appear ready to take the opener approach in this getaway game. Both of New York’s […]
On April 15th in 2010, Canucks netminder Roberto Luongo lodged his goalie stick into the back of his pads after making a spectacular overtime save against the Kings' Jack Johnson in Game 1 of the Western Conference Quarter-finals.
After a 15 second struggle, Luongo untangled the lumber in time to stop a shot from Brad Richardson as play returned to his end. Vancouver went on to beat Los Angeles
There’s at least one bit of bright light at the end of the Lakers’ season. On Thursday, Shams Charania of ESPN reported that Luka Dončić, as well as Cade Cunningham, both would be eligible for awards after winning their respective Extraordinary Circumstances Challenge cases in regards to the 65-game rule. Luka’s case centered around him […]
The Los Angeles Rams debuted several uniform updates, what the team is calling a “refresh”, and announced two new uniforms to come in the summer. The press release is jam-packed with more buzzwords than a new flavor of Coke and the only thing missing is “synergy” and “A.I.”. The Los Angeles Rams today announced a […]
Although Coleman Shelton is locked in as the Los Angeles Rams starting center for 2026, this year’s draft has some interesting options looking ahead. There is no reason to think he’s on the chopping block, the L.A. braintrust loves his understanding of opposing defensive looks and command of the blocking calls. After seven seasons, he’s […]
The Yankees have played with fire this week with the Angels, twice heading to the bottom of the ninth trailing and twice able to find a way to win. Good thing, too, since the AL East, and the American League more broadly, has tightened up quite a bit after the Yankees’ fast 8-2 start. It […]
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … More Thoughts on the AJ Brown Situation – Iggles BlitzWe know there have been active negotiations with the Rams and Patriots. That doesn’t happen unless Howie is open to trading AJ. This is a complex financial situation because of the cap ramifications so this isn’t […]
A day after conceding 18 runs against Fresno, the Ontario Tower Buzzers nearly one-upped them in a blowout win at home, scoring a whopping 10 runs in a single half-inning, their most up-to-date this season, moving to a 6-4 record. Player of the day Two hits were all that Jaron Elkins needed to stand out […]

That’s it, we know who the Los Angeles Rams are drafting with their first two picks in next week’s NFL Draft because Mel Kiper said so. Kiper said the Rams will take Makai Lemon and follow that up with Josiah Trotter. So, it is written (by Kiper), so it is done. That’s the bottom line. […]
Since 2005, every April 15th has been designated as Jackie Robinson Day across all of MLB. It of course has special meaning to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the team for which he debuted in 1947. Since the statue of Jackie Robinson was installed in 2017, Manager Dav Roberts has held a moment of celebration and […]
Meet the Mets The Mets were swept by the Dodgers with the offense failing to show up once again. Clay Holmes was solid in his start but the bullpen collapsed to turn it into a blowout loss that is now the team’s eighth in a row. Choose your recap: Amazin’ Avenue, MLB.com, Newsday, NY Post […]
Monday night’s zany 11-10 walk-off win over the Angels will be remembered for the offensive heroics of both lineups far more than any pitching performance. However, there was a sequence from Will Warren right before his start got turned on its head that caught my eye. So, I’d like to share what I felt was […]
That's Wild
The Minnesota Wild were able to bully over the Anaheim Ducks by a score of 3-2 to get a win in their season finale. Getting a win in the last game before they truly matter, is at least worth something. Such as, Hunter Haight scoring his first NHL goal. [StarTribune]

The Mets had lost seven in a row, including the first two games of the series against the Dodgers. Clay Holmes was taking the mound against Shohei Ohtani, who had a 0.00 ERA up to that point in the season. The Mets needed to change that to change their own fortunes, as they had been […]
