Latest blog entries from Pittsburgh teams across every league
Cincinnati Reds righty Chase Burns is fresh off a brilliant outing Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. In it he pitched through a career-best 7.0 IP, held the Bucs scoreless, and lowered his season ERA to a tiny 2.20. He owns a 201 ERA+, 1.024 WHIP, and is striking out a wonderful 10.1 batters per 9 […]
Like all good sequels, the Aaron Rodgers-Pittsburgh Steelers melodrama has had a few decent twists and turns that would make Randy from Scream proud. A rarely used contract tender after weeks of promised deadlines coming and going without any sort of direction or answers? How exciting. Now, a new door has opened in this weird […]
It’s been a little more than a week now since the 2026 NFL Draft. We spent much of last week analyzing and discussing the Steelers’ draft class, and as we enter the quietest period of the NFL calendar, there will be plenty more opportunities to do so. However, just because the news cycle will slow […]
Whatever decision that Kyle Dubas and the Penguins make about the status of Evgeni Malkin could be the most important or telling one of the whole offseason. Bring back the 40-year old player and that sets a pretty clear course to try and make the 2026-27 season look a lot like this past year where […]
The Steelers’ offseason roster is almost complete, and the team will be in training camp before we know it. It’s almost time for an NFL tradition not far off from the endless mock drafts that punctuate the spring: summer 53-man roster predictions. There are still plenty of question marks that will be answered in the […]
If you haven’t already, now is the perfect time to switch into offseason mode as the Pittsburgh Penguins have a busy summer ahead as they look to continue to retool and build off the success of the 2025-26 season that saw them return to the playoffs for the first time in four years. There is […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates have on paper one of the best rotations in baseball, but they cannot expect to maximize that talent if they continue to limit their ace, Paul Skenes. In 2026, Skenes has seven starts under his belt with a 4-2 record and a 3.18 ERA. When he’s on the mound, he’s mostly been […]
Aaron Rodgers is close friends with Cardinals offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett. As the Steelers grow impatient with the 42-year-old quarterback and Arizona’s starting job remains uncertain as Jacoby Brissett avoids the team for more money, speculation arose on Monday that a Rodgers-Hackett reunion could make a lot of sense. And let’s not forget that the […]
Former first-round safety Darnell Savage was set to sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers during NFL free agency on March 10, insiders reported. And now, over a month later, he has yet to put pen to paper. However, while speaking with Steelers radio show SNR Drive on April 30, The Athletic’s Mike DeFabo said that the […]
Lovullo is an idiot. “Why don’t the diamondbacks dfa lovulululu. He’s an idiot.” Such a thoughtful phrase might have come from a nowadays philosopher. Something like Kant, but reflectioning on baseball instead of economics. But, no, it was Zekedos2 on mlbtraderumors.com, commenting on the article that Aramis García was DFAd by the Diamondbacks after reinstating […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed tight end Jaheim Bell to a one-year contract, the team announced Monday.

He had a tremendous showing in the preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars going 20-of-28 for 233 yards and three touchdowns. Prior to joining the Steelers, Thompson was […]
There has been a lot of discussion about what the Pittsburgh Steelers will do as it pertains to their group of edge rushers. T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith combine for over $62 million against the cap in 2026, and rising star Nick Herbig is due for an extension or the Steelers will have to watch […]
The schedule release is the next tentpole date on the NFL calendar, with the schedule set to release between May 12 and 14 with leaks all but certainly happening in the days before that. Ahead of the full schedule release, though, Warren Sharp released his projected strength of schedule rankings. In his 1-32 ranking from […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers continue to wait on Aaron Rodgers and his decision on whether or not he will join them for the 2026 season. This comes after both Team President Art Rooney II and General Manager Omar Khan began the offseason reassuring both media and fans that they don’t expect Rodgers to drag this decision […]

The Philadelphia Eagles trading up with the Dallas Cowboys to jump the Pittsburgh Steelers for […]
The 2025-26 season is officially in the books for the Pittsburgh Penguins, and it was mostly an unexpected success in a couple of different ways. On a team level, they exceeded every possible expectation anybody had for them in the preseason and snapped the franchise’s three-year playoff drought. The postseason run was brief and ended […]
The NHL couldn’t pass up a Saturday night time slot on ABC and started the Philadelphia/Carolina series before the first round ended. (Sidenote, there goes conspiracy theories about leagues tinkering in results: a Pittsburgh/Philadelphia Game 7 would have filled that spot really nicely, but alas). We went 3-1 on the East in the first round, […]
Here are your Pens Points for this Monday morning… As the Pittsburgh Penguins and their fans begin the off-season, two of the franchise’s biggest stars are in something of a “wait-and-see” mode regarding their future. Captain Sidney Crosby hasn’t decided whether he’ll continue playing beyond the 2026-27 season when his contract expires. He could sign […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates are coming off a series sweep of the rival Cincinnati Reds, but they still find themselves at the bottom of what’s been a tightly contested National League Central division all season long. Despite the last place distinction that the Pirates hold, they still have a record over .500, as they are currently […]
The Cincinnati Reds did not have a position player pitch on Sunday in Pittsburgh. They did not get shelled 9-1, or walk seven consecutive batters in a 17-7 drubbing. The Reds instead watched their brightest young star turn in precisely the kind of outing they needed after their starters and bullpen had been torched the […]
The Cincinnati Reds turn to Chase Burns on Sunday in Pittsburgh as they attempt to salvage a game in their series against the Pirates, who have absolutely unloaded on them in the first two games of the series. Cincinnati starters Brady Singer and Rhett Lowder have been crushed in short starts so far this series, […]
Two things have proven true so far for the Cincinnati Reds in this weekend’s series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The first, of course, is that walks will haunt. Cincinnati pitchers walked seven straight batters in Saturday’s 17-7 drubbing by the Buccos, the strike zone simply as hard to find as ships in the Bermuda Triangle. […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers addressed multiple positions of need in the NFL Draft, selecting two offensive linemen, a wide receiver, and a quarterback within the first 100 picks. The one position they (surprisingly) didn’t address, though, was inside linebacker. With Patrick Queen entering the final year of his deal, and Payton Wilson having yet to show […]
