Chicago Cubs news and notes — Horton, Martin, Palencia, Wiggins

Sources say that Riley Martin is heading to Chicago. Colin Rea and Ben Brown are the leading candidates to sub for Cade Horton, with southpaw middle/long man Martin standing in for one of them in the ’pen. Horton’s headed to Chicago. More below. Maybe he’ll be good enough to see some volleyball. Game Results: Cubs […]

This Week in Purple: One Week In

The Colorado Rockies finished their first week and have scored 26 total runs. While that sounds like a good amount, 14 of those runs came in Monday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Otherwise, they’ve been held to 12 total runs and have been held to three or fewer runs in every other game. They’re […]

Orioles minor league recap 4/5: Keys pick up lone win

Triple-A: Norfolk Tides @ Memphis Redbirds – PPD Last night’s game was rained out and will be made up as part of a doubleheader today. Double-A: Hartford Yard Goats (COL) 4, Chesapeake Baysox 2 Luis De León’s 2026 season did not get off to a great start. The lefty was wild to start with walks […]

Sunday BP: Highlight of the week

Good morning, baseball fans! It’s another Sunday of San Francisco Giants baseball, which means it’s time to hear your favorite highlights of the week! I’ve given Willy Adames a ton of love this week, so I think I’m going to go with Jung Hoo Lee’s 2-RBI double from Tuesday’s 9-3 win over the San Diego […]

The Yankees can make it late early in April

Yes, it’s true that you can’t win a division in April. In the season’s first week and a bit, though, the Yankees have done their very best. Writing ahead of Saturday evening’s (ultimately successful) showdown with the Marlins, New York was a sterling 6-1, the best record in baseball behind a staff that’s been very […]

Mets Daily Prospect Report, 4/5/26: Tilly takes charge

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (4 – 4) SYRACUSE 9, TOLEDO 7 (BOX) Homers from Nick Morabito, Hayden Senger, and Jackson Cluff powered the Mets to a 9-7 win in a slugfest over the Mud Hens. Senger already has three homers on the season and is currently rocking a 1.474 OPS – not a real signal of anything, but […]

Orioles news: Early problems in need of solutions

Hello, friends. Once again, the Orioles find themselves in a funk. I’m not talking about the fun kind of funk. This isn’t Parliament-Funkadelic up in here. Tower of Power isn’t showing up to ask, What is hip? This is the stinky shoes kind of funk. The limburger. The durian fruit. Yeah, after losing yesterday, the […]

Today on Pinstripe Alley – 4/5/26

At the end of the season, all the wins count the same. Whether it involves a triple-grand-slam blowout with 22 runs, a 1-0 near-perfecto, or a game you never should’ve won but was handed to you with a last-second error, they’re generally all equal. Call last night’s Yankees win over the Marlins something closer to […]

Yankees news: Luis Gil’s 2026 Yankee debut set for Friday

MLB | Bryan Hoch: After beginning 2026 at Triple-A with a packed house in the rotation, 2024 AL Rookie of the Year Luis Gil is set to make his season debut this coming week. Gil is scheduled to start today for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (his first appearances this year) and will then pitch for the Yankees on […]

Arizona baseball outslugged by ASU in series finale

Arizona’s only scheduled game this season on linear television just happened to coincide with the men’s basketball team playing in its first Final Four in 25 years, which likely meant very few fans ended up tuning in (or showing up in person). That may have ended up being a blessed in disguise. Rival ASU scored […]

Mookie Betts leaves game with back pain, sent for MRI

The Dodgers got their second straight blowout win over the Washington Nationals on Saturday, but will be without shortstop Mookie Betts for a little bit. Betts left the game with lower right back pain in the first inning, and will be sent for an MRI exam to determine the severity. Betts walked and scored in […]

Holmes away from home

The Mets have been a little uneven to start the 2026 campaign, putting it on Paul Skenes on Opening Day but struggling to hit in the subsequent games; before last night’s ten run breakout that is. The Mets kept the momentum going tonight, winning 9-0 over the Giants, with a funky lineup that lacked Juan […]

Very bad!

Did you think Friday was tough? Well, let me introduce you to Saturday — it was so much worse! Bad defense, no offense, frustrated pitching. Sound familiar? Believe it or not, there was a point at the beginning of the Giants’ 9-0 loss to the Mets when things were actually going pretty swell.  Landen Roupp […]

Lightning clinch playoff spot, then beat Bruins, 3-1

Prior to the drop of the puck on Saturday evening, the Tampa Bay Lightning accomplished their season goal. Thanks to the Detroit Red Wings losing to the New York Rangers, the Lightning clinched a spot in the 2026 NHL playoffs. Then they went out and scored three third period goals to beat the Boston Bruins, 3-1. If you ever need a game that defines the 2025-26 Tampa Bay Lightning season, it was tonight’s. If you’re looking for a detailed recap of the game – here ya go – instead, we want t...

Jo Adell Shuts Out Mariners

Emerson Hancock gave up a home run to Zach Neto on the first batter he faced Saturday. It was the only run of the game. The home run was the first hit Hancock allowed in 2026. He threw six no-hit innings with nine strikeouts last week against the Guardians in his season debut. He looked […]

Report: Ravens signing punter Luke Elzinga

Of the Baltimore Ravens’ 10 lost free agents this offseason, one that has perhaps flown under the radar is punter Jordan Stout. After a breakout All-Pro season in 2025, the New York Giants offered Stout a contract making him the highest-paid punter in NFL history and the Ravens did not re-sign him. Now, for the […]

Braves News: Atlanta falls to Michael Soroka, Owen Murphy, more

The Braves are hitting the ball pretty hard this season, but have had a number of barreled outs and haven’t always seen results from hitting the ball well. It does seem like some of this might be due to the balls being further deadened, as has seemingly been a trend over recent years. Some of […]
