It was a quiet Rule 5 draft for the Mets, who did not make a selection nor have a player selected in the major league phase. In the Triple-A phase, the Mets lost three pitchers but made three selections of their own. After choosing to add Nick Morabito to the 40-man roster, the Mets did […]

The San Francisco 49ers continue to make changes to their practice squad. After recently opening the practice window for quarterback Kurtis Rourke, the team released Adrian Martinez from the practice squad. Martinez returned to the New York Jets on Wednesday. Eddy Pineiro is back practicing, which also means there is no need for kicker Matt […]
Tough blow for the fourth line with Edstrom sidelined, but Rempe’s return to practice gives the Rangers a much-needed jolt of size, chaos, and vibes.

The New York Knicks have reinvented themselves as a possession-winning machine, with a winning record and stats to back it up. What was once a middle-of-the-pack rebounding team is now one of the league’s elite. Fred Katz explains why in his latest Athletic article. Also below, an NBA insider gives an update on the Giannis […]
43 degrees at MetLife Stadium in December taint so bad. Were the Dolphins? The Fins’ offense has figured out a formula Sure; it’s the Jets (and a Jets team with a boatload of injuries, to boot). But being up 21-0 with 3:39 left in the 1st quarter is a pretty solid opening salvo. Heavy sets, […]
Okay, so we’ve all had a couple days to put the ugly weekend in the rearview mirror and move forward. The Blackhawks made the decision on their off day to sent a couple young guys to Rockford to get some work and called up just one forward, which means they’ll be skating a “normal” 12-6 lineup. The great news for all of us is tonight’s nationally broadcast game is actually an early game! Love me a 6:30 start on a weeknight. Let’s see if the Blackhawks show up on time and get back to what ...
Pete Alonso has agreed to terms with the Baltimore Orioles, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan on Tuesday afternoon. The deal is reportedly worth five years and $155 million. Alonso was drafted by the Mets in the second round in 2016. In just seven seasons at the major league level, the Polar Bear placed himself among […]
MLB Rumors: Pete Alonso and the Baltimore Orioles have agreed to terms on a 5 year, $155 million deal, per multiple reports. This is a very surprising move on a few levels. First of all, it seemed unlikely that the New York Mets would let Alonso leave. A homegrown hero, Alonso explored the free agent […]
The Orlando Magic and New York Knicks have started a fledgling rivalry in the NBA’s Eastern Conference this year. From hard-fought games to Magic wing Desmond Bane throwing a basketball at Knicks forward OG Anunoby, sparks have flown. The teams will write another chapter this coming Saturday as both have advanced to the semi-final round […]
The Chicago Blackhawks welcome the New York Rangers to the United Center on Wednesday night, kicking off the first of their two matchups this season and with both teams looking to get back in the win column. The Rangers’ season so far has been defined by uneven stretches and a standings picture that changes every other night. They’re currently on the outside looking in when it comes to the playoff race, but the Eastern Conference is so tightly packed that one good run — or one poorly time...
Two weeks ago when we did this exercise, the New York Jets were effectively tied with the New Orleans Saints for the third-highest draft odds and were projected to pick right around fourth overall. Since then, the Jets played two games, both as slight underdogs. They beat the Atlanta Falcons and then got blown out […]
Major League Baseball is set to hold the Rule 5 draft at 2 PM EST today, and the Mets will be making the eighteenth pick in it thanks to their 83-79 record during the 2025 season. The complete order of the draft is as follows: Teams that select a player in that phase must pay […]
Dan Quinn spoke to the media before Washington Commanders practice. He said that Jayden Daniels won’t play on Sunday when the team visits the New York Giants. He aggravated the left elbow injury that cause him to missed three games. He was chasing down a Vikings defender who had just intercepted him, when he was […]
The most significant and boisterous agent in baseball, Scott Boras, held his annual Winter Meetings press conference yesterday, and was quick to draw various witty connections between star free agent slugger Pete Alonso (nicknamed the Polar Bear by former Mets third baseman Todd Frazier) and his hometown team, the Tampa Bay Rays: The two-time Home […]
Believe it or not, the Knicks decided they’re cool with gambling. New York won’t host a game on Saturday, as it’d be Vegas instead welcoming the Knicks to the Strip as the boys try to punch their tickets for Game 83 next week. Here’s what we heard before and after yesterday’s potentially historic victory. Mike […]
As the end of spring training drew to a close, the Yankees were in desperate need for pitching depth, particularly at the back of the bullpen. Suddenly, Ryan Yarbrough, the veteran lefty who spent five years with the Tampa Bay Rays and had signed a minor league deal with the Toronto Blue Jays during the […]
With Edwin Díaz having signed a three-year deal with the Dodgers, the Mets have lost perhaps the best reliever to have ever pitched for the franchise. Let’s take a look at how his time in Queens compares to that of the Mets’ other best relievers, a group that isn’t nearly as strong as the franchise’s […]
The 2026 Yankees project to have what might be called a fairly high variance group of outfielders. In one locked-in spot, there’s Aaron Judge, a generationally great baseball player who is not going anywhere, or seemingly regressing, any time soon. There’s Trent Grisham, who’s coming off of a surprise career year and an acceptance of […]
Soucy went from disaster to defensive anchor under Mike Sullivan, and with no internal replacements coming, the Rangers suddenly can’t afford to lose him.
Hunter Pence would be next on the list, but I don’t think many people, who aren’t related to him, would vote for him to make the Hall of Fame. He played for 14 seasons, had a 30.9 bWAR. Hit .279/.334/.461 with 244 home runs and 120 steals. He got MVP votes four times, finishing as […]
The trade winds are starting to blow in the NHL, and with the New Jersey Devils recent skid, cries have started coming out from all corners of the internet and the Devils fanbase for GM Tom Fitzgerald to do something before these recent struggles derails the season.

The winter meetings are already in full swing, and the Dodgers have secured their first major splash of the offseason in former New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz.
