My favorite player of all time is taking the ball tonight for Game 7 of the World Series. That of course is Max Scherzer. I am nervous for him because he obviously is not what he once was at 41 years old. However, he still has that competitive hunger that made him my favorite player […]
Whatever happens tonight, this has been a great ride. I’m thinking that the Jays will win tonight. Paul Molitor and Jack Morris throw out the first pitch (pitches?) tonight. Morris is an interesting choice. I’ve never been a fan of his, and his work in the booth hasn’t helped my opinion of him. I think […]
The calm before the storm. The Dallas Cowboys have got to find a way to get a win versus the Arizona Cardinals this week. The Cowboys have battled injuries all season, and it has taken a toll on their performance on the field. The expectation is that the Cowboys will be healthier this week with […]
Last time out, we looked at the results of the pre-season bets people were invited to place on the position players who were part of the 2025 D-backs, as well as some other lines like wins, Lovullo ejections and MLB debuts. Now, it’s the turn of the pitchers – and, more importantly, we will also […]
The Dodgers are sticking with the same lineup for the winner-take-all Game 7 that they ran out there in Friday night’s Game 6 win over the Blue Jays in Toronto, with one minor change in the order. Max Muncy bats fifth in Game 7 and Teoscar Hernández hits sixth, swapping spots from Friday night. Dodgers […]
It’s hard to imagine an NFL game without referees wearing headsets, a practice that started in 2014 after testing the technology for two years. Major League Soccer has them, the National Hockey League has them, and even Major League Baseball began using them in 2022. Additionally, this technology has been in widespread use in EuroBasket […]

LET’S GO BLUE JAYS! The post BLUE JAYS – BRING IT HOME – OPEN THREAD appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
Atlético Madrid coach Diego Simeone spoke to the media after watching his team cruise to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Sevilla with goals from Julián Alvarez, Thiago Almada and Antoine Griezmann. After the victory, Simeone was quizzed on whether he was excited about how this season could end for Atlético in light of the recent […]
Bryce Eldridge’s mid-September call-up was billed as a desperate search for an offensive boost in a desperate and flailing push for the postseason. Admittedly, a big ask for a 20 year old, and somewhat unsurprisingly, the team’s young top-prospect did not provide the much-needed kick in the pants. The Giants pulled at October’s push-door and […]
How was he acquired? The Braves signed Jhancarlos Lara back in 2021 as an international free agent. The team was still dealing with their international sanctions from the John Coppolella era at the time, significantly limiting what they could spend. So getting a real prospect in this time would require finding a diamond in the […]
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts during postgame interviews and during his media availability after Game 6 of the World Series at Rogers Centre in Toronto was noncommittal about his starting pitcher for Game 7. But it looks like Shohei Ohtani, who makes the most sense, will get the ball first in the winner-take-all game against the […]
The Arizona Cardinals will start Jacoby Brissett in their Monday Night Football showdown with the Dallas Cowboys. The team on Friday once again listed Kyler Murray as limited in practice, did not give a quarterback availability for the press, and waited until the weekend to make the call. After it was reported that it would […]
There isn’t all that much to talk about. They just have to win today. Shohei Ohtani is starting for the Dodgers, on short rest. Max Scherzer goes for the Jays. But we will see a lot of pitchers tonight. It is a Johnny Wholestaff day. I was looking at the Athletic’s 2025 predictions for the […]
Game 7 of the World Series will feature a starting pitching matchup involving a pair of future Hall of Famers, as the Los Angeles Dodgers have announced that Shohei Ohtani will be starting for them. The Toronto Blue Jays had previously announced Max Scherzer as their Game 7 starter. Ohtani will be starting on three […]
The San Francisco 49ers will take on the New York Giants in Week 9, looking to bounce back from a 26-15 loss to the Houston Texans last weekend. The 49ers had one of their worst defensive performances of the year, as they couldn’t get any pressure on C.J. Stroud, who had his best day of […]
How was he acquired? The Braves selected Miami lefty Herick Hernandez in the fourth round of the 2024 MLB Draft. It was a slight surprise at the time for a kid who put up a 6.14 ERA and 1.58 WHIP in his lone season with the Hurricanes, but the team believed in his fastball – […]
Our latest Reacts survey took on another daunting question related to last week’s: With many holes to fill looking ahead to the 2026 White Sox roster, where should the front office concentrate its efforts to improve? The answers were a bit surprising. If you believe that the more robust offense of the second half quells […]
11 Years Ago Alex Anthopoulos traded Adam Lind to the Brewers for Marco Estrada. I wasn’t overly thrilled about the trade. He appeared to be a mediocre 5th starter/long reliever/swingman type. I expected a little more for Lind. I worried about Estrada’s tendency to give up home runs. The AL East seemed the wrong place […]
See a picture multiple times, try looking at it from a different angle, and you might find something that you missed. As the Dodgers prepare to play a winner-take-all game for the chance at repeating as World Series champs, one aspect of this game stands out. To truly grasp why, we mustn’t simply look at […]
The New York Rangers are in an interesting position where they should still be at the top of the standings with the talent on their team, but have once again struggled and are 5-5-2 on the season. An injury to Vincent Trocheck hasn't helped them, but this is a team that may need to go through a bit of a transformation to get back to the top of the mountain. To this point, David Pagnotta said, "Braden Schneider is another guy that a lot of teams were poking around on. He's an RFA next summer, a...
The Dallas Cowboys will host the Arizona Cardinals on Monday Night Football this week, but they won’t face Kyler Murray. The game at AT&T Stadium, where Murray has a pristine 9-0 record, will now be Dak Prescott versus Jacoby Brissett. Murray, who is now missing his third straight game, had seemed on track to return […]
The Yankees season ended far sooner than all those involved would have hoped, but that does not mean the season was a total loss. One of the most encouraging developments of the last year was the emergence of Cam Schlittler, Ben Rice, and Will Warren from relatively unheralded prospect status into legitimate contributors at the […]
