It’s me, ISH95, your Entertainment Manager for AZ Snakepit! I will be commissioner of the Minor League for Fantasy Baseball, for what I believe is the 20th season of the Snakepit leagues. Getting started a little late this season, so without further ado, let’s jump right into the specifics! That’s all there is to it! […]
As first reported by Steve Gilbert, Zac Gallen is returning to the D-backs on a one-year deal. The amount involved is $22 million, which is basically the same amount as the qualifying offer Gallen declined at the start of the winter. However, Ken Rosenthal reports that approximately $14 million of that is deferred. It’s a […]
The Cubs have reportedly agreed to a two-year deal with veteran right-handed reliever Shelby Miller. Fansided’s Robert Murray was reportedly first with the news. Miller, 35, pitched quite effectively last year with the Diamondbacks, posting a 1.98 ERA and ten saves in 37 games before he was traded to the Brewers at the trade deadline, […]
Dylan Ray might be ahead only of Jose Fernandez, in terms of being the least well-known player on the 40-man roster. Ray was a fourth-round pick in 2022, after barely thirty collegiate innings, and it has been an up-and-down struggle since. Of the four “real” levels at which he has played, High-A ball is the […]
The Seattle Seahawks are on the search for a new offensive coordinator (again), only this time it’s because Klint Kubiak was so good that it netted him a head coaching job. One candidate being looked at comes from the Arizona Cardinals. NFL insider Ian Rapoport wrote on Friday that the Seahawks will meet with 30-year-old […]
The Arizona Cardinals now have all of their coordinators in place, and most of their offensive coaching staff. What remains to be seen is how defensive coordinator Nick Rallis fills out the remainder of his defensive staff over the next several weeks. Here is what the staff for Mike LaFleur looks like. Offensive Coordinator – […]
Happy Friday everybody! Spring Training is truly underway. Next week will be the first full week of practice leading up to the first preseason games a week from today. In the early days of camp, teams often limit their starters to a few innings every other day to avoid injury or burnout before the 162-game […]
The Arizona Cardinals need another safety. Why? Budda Baker was just named to his fifth Pro Bowl. His running mate, Jalen Thompson, is a very good safety. So, what’s the deal? Thompson is a free agent. Yeah, bummer. RELATED: OG DAVID EDWARDS FREE AGENT PROFILE In 2019, the Cardinals drafted Thompson in the fifth-round. […]
To no one’s surprise, Cooper Flagg was officially named a “Rising Star” by the NBA and was tapped to compete in the “Rising Stars Challenge” during the 2026 All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles before suffering a foot injury in Tuesday’s 120-111 loss at the Phoenix Suns. It got us thinking: What other Mavericks have been […]
The Arizona Cardinals are running it back with a couple of their coaches. After we just found out that Nick Rallis will be returning as the Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator, there are now also reports that the Cardinals will bring Justin Frye back as offensive line coach. This is an interesting move, and while the […]
The NFL, a schedule filled with triumph and heartbreak, sees a new champion crowned each February. Yet, as of 2024, there are twelve teams that have yet to claim a Super Bowl title. Their stories, filled with near misses and dashed hopes, add their own unique chapter to the ever-growing tale of the league. Each […] The post The Uncrowned Dozen: 12 NFL Teams Without a Super Bowl Victory appeared first on The Sports Bank .
While the Arizona Cardinals continued their search for a defensive coordinator, there was always some who believed they may already have him. Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports is reporting that the Cardinals will retain Nick Rallis as defensive coordinator. This would be fun, since the beginning of the offseason there have been murmurs that the […]
When Jonathan Gannon took over as the Green Bay Packers’ defensive coordinator, after a stint as the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, many tabbed Cardinals defensive coordinator Nick Rallis to be a potential linebackers coach candidate in Green Bay. Rallis was not only Gannon’s DC in Arizona, but he was the one on-field coach […]
The Miami Dolphins are still struggling to fill their quarterbacks coach position. They originally hired former Denver Broncos head coach and former New York Jets offensive coordinator Nathanial Hackett for the role, but he left within a week to be the offensive coordinator for the Arizona Cardinals. On Thursday night, they lost out on another […]
The news on Monday that the team had lost reliever Andrew Saalfrank for the season, after shoulder surgery, was not exactly the way the Diamondbacks wanted the week of pitchers and catchers reporting to start. Since debuting as a September call-up in 2023, Saalfrank has posted a 1.79 ERA, and was better even than that […]
The Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator position has been a question since they decided to move on from Jonathan Gannon. While we still have not heard anything on what is happening with Nick Rallis, the team has interviewed a number of potential candidates… including having just interviewed recent Super Bowl LX Champion Karl Scott, the Seahawks […]
Well, this is certainly something. Former D-backs’ closer Paul Sewald, an integral part of the bullpen which reached the 2023 World Series, is apparently coming back to the team. Steve Gilbert was the first to report the deal, confirming it is a major-league contract, rather than a minor-league one with an invite to spring training. […]
The Seattle Seahawks have already lost offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak to the Las Vegas Raiders, and it won’t be a surprise if they lose more assistant coaches following their Super Bowl victory. One name to watch is defensive backs coach and passing game coordinator Karl Scott, who’s been with the team since Pete Carroll was […]
It has long been speculated that Rams tight end Tyler Higbee could retire this year, but one thing for certain is that his contract will expire next week. Higbee’s contract officially voids on February 16th. Higbee had 91 yards in the season finale against the Cardinals and was still a part of the offense in […]
Morning, all! Wyatt Langford is being considered as an injury replacement for outfielder Corbin Carroll for Team USA, which would make him the fifth Ranger playing in the World Baseball Classic.

The Hall of Very Good has announced their Class of 2026, and a Cardinals familiar face was included: kicker Jim Bakken. He will join nine other pro football players. Bakken was a roster member of the St. Louis Cardinals from 1962 to 1978 and played 17 years before hanging up his cleats. Today, he is […]
Happy Thursday one and all. The Arizona Cardinals and the rest of the NFL are now chasing the Seattle Seahawks, which is even more of a problem for the Cardinals when you consider the Seahawks are in their division and have owned the Cardinals for nearly a decade. So, how do the Cardinals get back […]
The Arizona Cardinals are hiring their new wide receivers coach, because according to Peter Schrager they are hiring Tony Sorrentino the assistant wide receivers coach for the Minnesota Vikings. Sorrentino has worked previously at Northern Illinois University and Kent State before making the leap to the NFL and helping out the Vikings passing attack under […]
This is the final batch of right-handed pitchers. I’d not be surprised if one or more of these ended up in our Opening Day bullpen, and there is a non-zero chance every one we talk about here, sees some MLB action over the course of the 2026 campaign… Jonathan Loaisiga (43) With eight years of […]
