Latest blog entries from Tampa Bay teams across every league
Bucs News: Jalen McMillan Outshines Egbuka at OTAs, but Context Matters Before Investing Jalen McMillan is back on the practice field, healthy, and making a statement. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver outperformed teammate Emeka Egbuka at OTAs this past week, according to Scott Reynolds of PewterReport.com, a development worth monitoring, even if one week [...]
This was the 8th week of full minor league play (stats are entering play on Sunday, May 31st). According to FanGraphs (which factors in age and proximity to the big leagues), 22-year old Caden Bodine has regained his spot as the top hitter spot in the Rays system. The backstop was recently added to Baseball […]
The Detroit Tigers ended May in a most miserable fashion, falling to the Chicago White Sox on the road, 2-1, to complete the sweep while finishing the month with just six wins in 28 tries. I have nothing further to say on the matter. On Monday, the team heads to Florida to take on the […]
Noah Steen has had a magnificent World Championship tournament. He entered the bronze medal game against Canada with six goals. His tournament-leading seventh goal gave Norway something they have never had in the history of their hockey program – a medal in an IIHF major series tournament.

June is here, and with it a summer filled with baseball is about to start. The Yankees are in the thick of a division race that promises to go down to the wire as always, sitting 1.5 games behind the Rays but a comfortable 7.5 games ahead of the rest of Toronto, Boston, and Baltimore. […]
Already trailing 3-1 in the third inning, the Los Angeles Angels appeared to be in deep trouble during their Sunday matchup against the Tampa Bay Rays. But then outfielder Jose Siri decided to play hero ball. With the bases loaded, Taylor Walls smashed a ball to left field. Siri tracked it down and went over […] The post Angels’ Jose Siri saves Rays’ delicious buffet spread with grand-slam robbery appeared first on ClutchPoints .
With the Tampa Bay Rays adding pitcher Craig Kimbrel to boost the team’s pitching staff as the ball club looks to make major noise in the AL East, that impact will have to take a backseat for now. As the Rays pitcher was just signed under a week ago, he has sustained a wrist injury […] The post Rays’ Craig Kimbrel signing immediately backfires with injury update appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Go Rays!
The Rays have placed right-hander Craig Kimbrel on the 15-day injured list with a right wrist strain, per a team announcement. The move is retroactive to May 28th. The club is also recalling lefty Cam Booser and righty Trevor Martin from Triple-A. In addition, righty Andrew Wantz is being designated for assignment, removing him from […]
Hello, friends. We were right on the verge of the Orioles really kicking us in the teeth there, weren’t we? If they followed up on sweeping the Rays by losing the first three games to the Blue Jays all in extremely excruciating fashion, that would have started to feel like the season was over again. […]
The ebbs and flows of a long, long baseball season can totally change your mood in a matter of days. Just six days ago, the Yankees had lost three consecutive games against division rivals and had fallen to 5.5 games back of the first-place Rays. Six days later, they have a chance to pull within […]
Drew Rasmussen put in one of his worst performances of the year, getting through just four innings while giving up five runs. Four of those runs came in the first, an uncharacteristically poor inning from the Rays righty. He gave up a single and then two walks — this is a guy who had, before […]
What John Sterling always said was true. You can’t predict baseball, Suzyn. Except sometimes you can have a pretty fair guess. The expected outcomes for the American League’s top two teams came to pass last night because both the Yankees and Rays are better than the A’s and Angels. If you’ll forgive getting blue from […]
It’s good to be home. The Rays came back home Friday night needing something that felt a little less like the last few days in Baltimore and a lot more like the team that had made Tropicana Field a very uncomfortable place for visitors. After four straight losses, a sweep they would like to forget, […]
Go Rays!
The Tampa Bay Lightning accelerated the timeline of one of their more intriguing prospects. On Friday, they announced that they signed Benjamin Rautiainen to a three-year entry-level contract. The 20-year-old is now set to start next season in North America with either the Syracuse Crunch or the Tampa Bay Lightning. While this wasn’t entirely unexpected, the Lightning did have to buy out the final season of his contract with Tappara in order to facilitate the deal. With the signing, Rauti...
Rautiainen had 25 goals and 52 assists with Tappara Tampere of the SM-liiga this season.
Happy Friday, everyone. It’s been a rough week to be a Tigers fan, and with the two upcoming series against the White Sox and Rays the Tigers are going to need to fight for every potential win. I never thought I’d say that about the White Sox, but they’ve just had their first winning month […]
Lots of state legislative sessions are wrapping up this week, but it’s been oddly quiet around actual stadium news, leaving room for lots of spin doctoring and other questionable takes: Turns out today’s conclusion of the Florida legislature’s special budget session won’t be a deadline for a Tampa Bay Rays stadium deal, as everything appears […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. The good vibes of the Orioles’ sweep of the first-place Rays did not carry into their next series, at least not for the opener. The O’s slipped back to five games under .500 with their 2-1 loss to the Blue Jays, as their offense, which had plated 26 runs in three […]
There are 29 teams that have already started their offseason preparations, and all of them have some work to do to reach a championship level.
Las Vegas Raiders star tight end Brock Bowers says he feels "100 percent" after a knee injury limited him to 12 games last season and affected him throughout.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are the only team in the NFL with two running backs who topped 1,000 scrimmage yards in 2025. Jaylen Warren finished last season with 1,291 yards from scrimmage and eight touchdowns. After letting 2025 team MVP Kenneth Gainwell walk in free agency and seeing him land with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Pittsburgh […]
Hello, friends. How ‘bout dem O’s? They have pulled off a similar trick towards the end of the month that they did towards the beginning. After getting miserably swept by a division opponent, they went on to play a much better series the second time around. They did this to the Yankees after losing four […]
The O’s scored five runs in the 1st inning and never looked back, completing a sweep of the Rays with an 11-2 pummeling of the American League’s top team. The Orioles came into Wednesday’s bottom of the 1st ranked 27th in 1st inning runs and 26th in 1st inning average. But just as we saw […]
