Latest blog entries from Phoenix teams across every league
With free agency into day three, which means a lull as teams are now being a little more judicious with their remaining cap space, we have an idea of what the Arizona Cardinals are doing. They have hit all their needs in free agency, maybe not at high level players, but with solid veterans who […]
The Jacksonville Jaguars were one of just three NFL teams, joining Seattle and Denver, to not add an outside player during the legal negotiating window. Now that the new league year has begun and free agency has officially started, the Jags shouldn’t be inactive for much longer. Bookmark this page for roster updates throughout the […]
Diamondbacks news (Arizona Sports) Projecting the Diamondbacks’ Opening Day lineup with 2 weeks until games count While there is still plenty to sort through in the rotation and bullpen, notably the decision of whether or not Kelly will start on the injured list, the D-backs’ position player group has cleared up to a degree with […]
The Kansas City Chiefs have signed former Arizona Cardinals running back and TCU standout Emari Demercado to a one-year deal. Demercado, who will likely work behind newly-signed running back Kenneth Walker III, spent three seasons with the Cardinals. The 5-foot-9, 215-pounder posted 126 carries for 819 yards (6.5 yards per carry) and three touchdowns over […]
When an NFL franchise loses 26 games in the past two seasons, there are obvious problems and issues. No wonder the head coach was fired. Plenty of holes to fill and new bodies to bring in and compete. That is the advantage of the free agency period. Next month, the NFL draft will take care […]
Something expected happened. Just as Kyler Murray was finally released by the Arizona Cardinals, the Minnesota Vikings signed him to a one-year deal during the free agency period. He signed for the $1.3 million veteran minimum. Murray will compete for the starting job against J.J. McCarthy who has disappointed since he was selected 10th overall […]
Introduction It’s easy to dismiss Spring Training statistics. There are legitimate excuses about pitchers experimenting with different grips, situations, or just not concentrating as hard as they might during the regular season. If you layer those reasons on top of the typically ridiculously small sample sizes, I can understand why fans might wave away both […]
A dangerous quarterback has just let the NFC West. Kyler Murray was released by the Arizona Cardinals and signed with the Minnesota Vikings. Many NFL fans have their complaints with Murray. His career started off with a bang before he and Kliff Kingsbury ran out of steam. Kingsbury was fired two years ago. Since Murray […]
Record 8-12. Change on 2025: -1.5. 5-inning record: 4-14-2. Another day, another spring-worst margin of defeat. After losing by ten runs yesterday, the D-backs went one better (or worse?) this afternoon at Salt River Fields. It was an ugly afternoon for the Arizona pitchers, who handed out a dozen free passes to Colorado hitters, thanks […]
Another quarterback option for the Pittsburgh Steelers is now off the table. Former Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray is signing a one-year deal with the Minnesota Vikings, per Adam Schefter. The former No. 1 overall pick was officially released by the Cardinals on Wednesday at the official start of the new league year. It now […]
The Miami Dolphins are adding another veteran player in the NFL’s 2026 free agency period. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Miami has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with wide receiver Tutu Atwell. Who is Tutu Atwell? A Miami native who attended Miami Northwestern High School, Atwell played college football at Louisville. He was […]
Happy Thursday one and all. The Arizona Cardinals are doing their best to create a competitive team in 2026, and today they announced signings of six free agents. We knew about four of the players, running back Tyler Allgeier, quarterback Gardner Minshew II, long snapper Casey Kreiter, and offensive lineman Matt Pryor, but two more […]
Roster moves The Arizona Diamondbacks made the following roster moves and have 40 players in camp. Reassigned to Minor League camp: No major surprises here. The best known name is probably Jarvis, who has appeared 67 times for the D-backs over the past three seasons. However, he was designated for assignment in December, and subsequently […]
As the Arizona Cardinals continue to fill out their 2026 NFL roster, they are doing so with some familiar names. Today, the team announced they are bringing back running back Zonovan “Bam” Knight and cornerback Starling Thomas V. From the team: Knight (5-11, 210) played in a career-high 12 games (eight starts) last season with the […]
The Arizona Cardinals have several positions that need quality bodies, and other rooms that, on the surface, appear to be good. Like tight end. Or cornerback. And maybe receiver? Or, maybe not. The Cardinals’ receivers have two really good ones in Michael Wilson and Marv Harrison. But, after that? Everyone knows a good offense needs […]
In March the sun rises in Arizona just before 7:00 a.m. It varies slightly from team to team but, for decades spring training work has generally been expected to start around that time. Just last month the Arizona Diamondbacks social team showed off their players arriving to camp in darkness: This schedule is widely disliked […]
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Diamondbacks fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. It looks as if, once again, the Diamondbacks will be going into the season without a […]
Record 8-11. Change on 2025: -0.5. 5-inning record: 4-13-2. A new record-holder for the worst margin of defeat this spring, the Arizona pitching staff giving up 14 hits and two walks. To be fair, there were four unearned runs, resulting from errors by Pavin Smith and Kevin Ginkel. But even nine earned runs… is not […]
Happy opening day of free agency one and all. The Arizona Cardinals heading into the 2026 Free Agency period have the following that should become official today when allowed: Along with the moves that we know are official because they were re-signings for the team: All of that and we are looking at the Cardinals […]
Insert GIF of The Rock yelling, “It doesn’t matter who you want to start Opening Day!”. Because, despite fans on the SnakePit being behind Ryne Nelson, by almost a 3-1 margin, we will instead be getting Zac Gallen on Opening Day, against the Dodgers in Los Angeles on March 26. This will be the fourth […]
The big news in today’s line-up sits right at the top, where Corbin Carroll is back in the line-up. It’s an amazingly quick return, just one month and a day after he suffered the injury on a swing during live batting practice on February 10. Given that when we looked at previous hamate-afflicted players, the […]
The moves came in quick and fast this week. One player the Dallas Cowboys agreed to terms with during the legal tampering period was former Cardinals safety Jalen Thompson on a three-year deal worth up to $36 million. It reunites Thompson with Cowboys secondary coach Ryan Smith, who previously coached him in Arizona. Thompson is […]
This afternoon, the Athletics will look to make it five Cactus League wins in a row as they play the Arizona Diamondbacks for the second time this spring. A week ago, the Diamondbacks defeated the A’s 3-1. Since then, the A’s offense has woken up in full force, seemingly scoring runs at will during this […]
Daulton Varsho is a 29-year-old, left handed hitting, center fielder. The Jays picked him up in a trade with the Diamondbacks, in December 2022, for Lourdes Gurriel and Gabriel Moreno when they were trying to remake the team. I don’t know that we were extremely excited about the trade. Daulton didn’t have the best year […]
After losing 26 games in the past two seasons, the Arizona Cardinals had a ton of holes to fill. Some of it would come in April’s NFL draft, while the remainder would become solid in this year’s free agency. And now, here it is: 2026 NFL free agency tampering period. Cardinals GM Monti Ossenfort has […]
