The San Francisco 49ers locked up arguably their most important free agent on Saturday by inking kicker Eddy Pineiro to an extension that is as team-friendly as it gets after the season he just had.

The Philadelphia Flyers scratched and clawed to a gutsy 4-3 shootout win over the archrival Pittsburgh Penguins Saturday afternoon. It was a game that ended up being full of firsts. Winger Alex Bump made his NHL debut and scored his first goal in a very successful game from the 22-year-old, and defenseman Jamie Drysdale dropped the gloves for the first time every in his hockey career. It was a beautiful sight. All game long, the Flyers and Penguins were getting into their typical extra cu...

The Phillies followed up Friday’s 14 run outburst by getting shut out on Saturday. Chances are, their offensive output on Sunday will fall somewhere in between when they travel to Fort Myers to take on the Minnesota Twins. Alan Rangel will get the ball for the Phillies. The righthander is vying to be considered for […]
The NHL draft represents the league’s casino for fans and franchises alike. Much like the table games and slot machines lining the floor of a casino, the rounds and pick slots all represent different risk and value propositions to the beholder. Amongst the litany of games where the house has an overwhelming advantage, there are a few opportunities for sharp bettors to capitalize when the odds are right. In this metaphor, a first round pick is blackjack. Statistically, blackjack is the tab...
Philadelphia Flyers winger Alex Bump played in his first National Hockey League game on Saturday. He took the traditional rookie lap in the pregame warm-up, then in the second scored his first NHL goal in a 4-3 shootout win over Pittsburgh. It was almost a fairytale beginning. But after the game, Bump revealed the happy ending initially could’ve turned into a nightmare of sorts. The Flyers made the news of Bump’s call-up official on their social media sites at 1 p.m. Eastern Saturday. How...
The Minnesota Wild’s acquisition of Bobby Brink from the Philadelphia Flyers is more than a feel-good homecoming story. It’s a calculated bet that a crafty, play-driving winger entering his prime can push this team closer to a deep playoff run. Adding Brink's skill set into a lineup that already fea...

Pregame There’s no Evgeni Malkin (suspension) or Sidney Crosby (injury) so the Penguins are working with this lineup today.

Jays 1 Phillies 0 The best part of this one was that Max Scherzer started and threw 4 no-hit innings, allowing just 1 walk with 1 strikeouts. He was helped out by some defensive play, but he got through the four innings on just 40 pitches (29 strikeouts). Max was terrific. I didn’t think he’d […]
Another trade deadline has come and passed, and the Philadelphia Flyers have subtracted from their roster. It’s a feeling that we’re all too familiar with. The departure of Bobby Brink and Nic Deslauriers, while not star players, signals a white flag– another season come and gone, threatening to extend the franchise-record playoff drought that hangs over the 2020’s like a storm cloud. Last season, we enjoyed the Matvei Michkov campaign for the Calder Trophy for the league’s best rookie, and wh...
After a busy deadline day, the Flyers are looking to refocus and hit their stride for the stretch run of the season. Their lineup is looking a little different, and they’re coming off of one of their rougher games of the season, but here’s hoping this next installment in the season series against those rival Penguins can give them a bit of a jumpstart.

On March 2nd in 1993, Mario Lemieux coined a hat trick when he started his day in Pittsburgh receiving radiation treatment for Hodgkin’s lymphoma and finished it with a goal and assist in Phildelphia, earning a rare ovation for an opponent in the rival rink during his first game back after a two month absence owing to the deadly disease. Despite losing 5-4 that night to the Flyers, Mario led his

The NHL trade deadline has come and gone, but the Flyers aren’t done yet making tweaks to the look of their roster. As of this morning, Alex Bump is on the Flyers’ roster , and an official announcement is expected before too long that they’ve recalled the winger from the Lehigh Valley Phantoms. He’s expected to make his NHL debut in short order. Bump, 22, was drafted by the Flyers in the fifth round of the 2022 draft, and after taking a steady developmental route — by way of the USHL...
The other day, I posted a short piece about how the Phillies not winning a World Series title does not mean they haven’t had a successful season. There was a short survey to ask your opinion, so here are those results. It’s interesting that the results are somewhat varied. Success can vary from person to […]
The Jays make the short drive to Clearwater to play the Phillies. We get out first look Max Scherzer this spring. He says he’ll be ready for opening day. I didn’t expect that he would be in the rotation to start the season. I think the odds of him being able to give us 30 […]
