Seven years ago today, the Red Sox’ last World Series championship parade rolled through a Halloween riot of baseball fans. When will the next parade down Boylston be? We’ll have to wait at least a year. But either Dodgers or Blue Jays fans will be luckier than that. Will the Jays drop the curtain on […]

It’s still tough to truly wrap your head around the season that Tyler Stephenson just had for the Cincinnati Reds, as a dive into the numbers sends you the four corners of the planet. His strikeout rate spiked over 11% to a career worst 33.9%, just one year removed from it being a career best […]

Every year as a new season dawns, I do my best to come up with spur of the moment, lightly researched predictions for the upcoming season. I am not living completely under a rock, however, so these do tend to be hunches that accumulate over months of casual offseason observance of happenings around the league, […]

About four weeks ago, shortly after the Red Sox were eliminated, I wrote that I was rooting for the Blue Jays to win the World Series in one our Over The Monster group posts. There are several reasons for this, but one of which is I want another big spending team in the division not […]

There’s a reason why it’s so rare that teams win back-to-back World Series. It’s Not Easy! The New York Yankees were the last team to pull off a repeat (actually their most recent was a three-peat) in 1998-2000. The last National League team to do it was the Big Red Machine in 1975-76. Diehard A’s […]

Ex-Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov knows what it feels like to arrive with expectation, a reputation, and an immediate demand to deliver. He’s been there twice, in fact. First at Tottenham Hotspur, where he took time to adapt to English football’s pace and intensity, and later at Manchester United, where his languid brilliance sometimes disguised […] The post Dimitar Berbatov shares “world class” advice for Florian Wirtz amid critics for Liverpool star appeared first on Paisley Ga...

2025 In A Discarded-On-The-Dugout-Floor Nutshell I’m not going to put his season in a discarded nutshell, because that’s what his season was itself. You should not care about Jordan Hicks’ results in 2025. Someone reading this, or someone reading the headline and nothing else, is going to see that he finished the season with a […]

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death.

2025 stats w/SFG: 90 G, 395 PA, .236/.347/.460, .224 ISO, 29 K%, 14 BB%, 126 wRC+, 1.3 fWAR Phase 1 of the 9-phase master plan was a dud. Rafael Devers was not the quick download for a desperately needed offensive upgrade. At times, that rotating rainbow wait cursor seemed to spin endlessly next to his […]

Look, I know Shane Bieber is really good. I know that the Blue Jays, in general, are a really good team. They won the American League East! The same division with the Yankees, the Red Sox, and the ever-pesky Rays! And yet, it sort of feels like the series is over. The Dodgers lead 2-1, […]

Or maybe this is Game 5, since Game 3 went 18 innings. Shohei Ohtani goes up against Shane Bieber, and both teams are going to be needing their starters to go deep after the Jays pen had to throw 12+ innings yesterday and the Dodgers’ pen 13+ innings yesterday. 7:00 p.m. Central on Fox. Talk […]

Not so long ago, I found myself thinking about this AL MVP race, and particularly how, in pretty remarkable ways, the productions from both Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh transcend the usual standard for this award. Whoever misses out on the award will do so with a historic season, and while it won’t be the […]

Wow. So, where do they go from here? Last night’s game was epic in every way. All of us are exhausted. Personally, after going to be at 3:15 am Eastern, I’m surprised my brain is functioning enough to write this. That fatigue will be the story line for Game 4, starting most notably with the […]

We like Mookie Betts and want him to be happy and feel fulfilled as a human. We don’t really like the ownership class and want them to, like, constantly have acid reflux or something. So it’s pretty great that Mookie won yet another award, this one for things he does off the field. Betts was […]

By the time he was named player-manager of the Cincinnati Reds in 1984, Pete Rose was the proud owner of three World Series rings, 16 All-Star selections, and more than 4,000 hits. Yet, at the same time, Rose was — in his own words — “pushing toward disaster.” You know the rest of the story. […]

2025 was a strange year for Nathaniel Lowe. He was coming off 4 straight years averaging 2.8 bWAR per season with a .274/.359./.432 batting line. He was joining a new team — the Washington Nationals — who many believed to be something of a sleeper in the National League with young stars James Wood and […]
