Latest blog entries from Phoenix teams across every league
The Arizona Cardinals may or may not need to bring in and develop a young quarterback. Or perhaps, they may wait until next year’s college draft. This year’s crop is top-heavy, and then it is a quagmire of developmental guys. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort may not want to develop a young signalcaller, and instead draft […]
Recaps [AZ Central] Nelson rocked, Carroll exits early in Toronto rout – Nelson’s outing unraveled almost instantaneously. Each of the first seven Blue Jays hitters recorded hits, doing so after just 20 pitches. At that point, it was 4-0, and only three of those first seven hits were well-struck. After walking No. 8 hitter Myles […]
The Arizona Cardinals are in need of another safety. Jalen Thompson unfortunately left in free agency and the team signed Andrew Wingard away from the Philadelphia Eagles. But every defensive backfield needs three capable safeties. Currently in the safety room are Pro Bowler Budda Baker, Kitan Crawford, Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, and Joey Blount. RELATED: SAFETY BUD […]
The San Diego Padres (5-1) and Arizona Diamondbacks (4-2) had strong weeks to keep pace in the National League West, but the big news of the week was the Padres about to be sold for the staggering price of $3.9 billion. The sale price shatters the previous record of $2.475 billion, which is what Steve […]
The latest Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs engage in Trade Talks for No. 3 Pick in NFL Draft | PHNX With the NFL Draft just five days away, Monti Ossenfort and the Arizona Cardinals appear poised to make a deal. Sources tell PHNX Cardinals that Ossenfort has already engaged in early trade discussions with GM Brett Veach and the Kansas City […]
DBACKS 4, BLUE JAYS 10: So you had a bad day (Guest recap)
Game three of three with the Diamondbacks. I’m putting the GameThreads together before leaving on holiday, which seemed like a better idea before I started doing it. Normally, a GameThread is pretty quick and easy, but when you are doing 20-some in a row, it loses some of the fun. Thankfully, I’m near the end. […]

Team News Corbin in the clutch! Carroll belts 4th career slam to lift D-backs to series win Since April 4, the bullpen has allowed 12 earned runs in 46 innings, that’s a 2.35 ERA. “They’ve been really good,” Carroll said. “It seems like whoever comes out of that gate is ready to go from pitch […]
For the past two weeks, it has been rumored that Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys has his sights on either RB Jeremyiah Love out of Notre Dame, or EDGE rusher David Bailey of Texas Tech, a local kid. And so, here at Revenge of the Birds, we took that thought and made an article […]
You never know what you’re going to see when you go to a ballgame, both good and bad. Sometimes both in the same night. One of the greatest individual pitching performances in program history ended up being for naught in Arizona’s 11-1, 8-inning loss to Kansas State on Saturday night at Hi Corbett Field. Smith […]
Another Saturday game, another Zac Gallen start, another swirling bit of anxiety in the gullet as we waited to see which Zac we were going to get today. I remember the heyday of Gallen’s good times, when he really was the unquestioned ace of the rotation, rather than simply being the guy who happens to […]
Game two of three with the Diamondbacks. I was looking at ‘attractions in Phoenix’. Camelback Mountain, which does look nice for hike (for other people, not for me, I’ve hiked enough to know I don’t enjoy it, and adding climbing doesn’t enhance the appeal). It is one of the “New 7 Wonders of Nature”. There […]
The Miami Heat entered Friday with the possibility of moving up to No. 12 in odds for the 2026 NBA Draft lottery. But that open door has now been slammed shut. As a result of the Phoenix Suns’ 111-96 win over the Golden State Warriors, the Heat officially own the 13th-best lottery odds ahead of […] The post Heat will have 13th best lottery odds ahead of 2026 NBA Draft appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .
What is the status of the Arizona Cardinals’ safety room? Budda Baker is one of the league’s best. His partner in crime was Jalen Thompson, who played well but was on the free agent list and found a new home very quickly. So far in free agency, the franchise inked Andrew Wingard from the Philadelphia […]
Weekend Link Dump CNN talks about the wild week that was in the stock market How are Native Americans responding to the new Washington Commanders logo? Because the Cardinals are a mess, of course Jacoby Brissett is looking for a massive pay raise I haven’t read this, but it’s probably a good read if you’re […]
Arizona baseball had won five of its last seven games, which included three road wins, entering Friday evening’s matchup with Kansas State. In the first game of the series, Arizona (14-23, 5-11 Big 12) battled in a low-scoring affair but fell short in a 2-1 loss to Kansas State (24-12, 8-8 Big 12). The Wildcats […]
Game Summary After a long and successful road trip, the Diamondbacks kicked off this six game homestand with a nearly drama-free victory over the defending AL Champs. It felt like a downright walk in the park to have a 3-run lead going into the 9th inning. What sorcery is this?! The Snakes didn’t play mistake-free […]
The Jays are in beautiful, downtown Phoenix, Arizona (well, I don’t know if it is beautiful or not), for three games against the Diamondbacks. Yet another park with a retractable roof. I remember how strange it was when the Jays had the retractable roof, all those years ago. They had real grass in Phoenix until […]

The NBA Play-In Tournament concludes tonight with two exciting matchups! Thankfully, the Portland Trail Blazers don’t have to compete in either of them. After beating the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, they’re waiting for Game 1 of the NBA Playoffs on Sunday. But we’re still tossing up a GameDay Discussion Thread for any fans who want […]
The Diamondbacks come into this series as one of the hottest teams in baseball. They’ve won seven out of their last ten, have only lost one series this season. They’re on fire. Unfortunately, they are exactly the third hottest team in baseball. The other two are directly in front of them in the NL West […]
The Arizona Cardinals offseason is going swimmingly, in the sense that they are drowning. After moving on from the head coach, quarterback, but somehow retaining the GM and defensive coordinator, they also seemingly were going to stay with the quarterback who led them to that 1-11 finish after the starter was “lost to injury”. Well, […]
Diamondbacks News (SI.com) Diamondbacks Trade Hard-Throwing Reliever to Brewers Fernandez was signed by the D-backs to a minor league contract and given an invite to spring training. At the time he was part of an effort by the team to bring in a number of “high-octane” arms, hoping to find a Diamondback in the rough. (Yahoo! Sports) […]
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones always seems focused on his legacy. Certainly, one part is the fact that the ‘Boys won three Super Bowls during the heyday of Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin, and Troy Aikman. But those titles were when? The final one was Super Bowl XXX, played on January 28, 1996, at the conclusion […]
