The Packers’ win over the Cardinals has spawned no end of takes. It was a very Rorschach test of a game — people see what they want to see. Without weighing in on the overall quality of the game or the win, here’s my perspective: this was a game where the Packers’ best players made […]

While the Nationals bullpen was disastrous in 2025, Clayton Beeter was a bright spot for the unit down the stretch. After arriving in a deadline deal that sent Amed Rosario to the Bronx, Beeter quickly went from a prospect to a trusted bullpen arm. He brought swing and miss stuff to a bullpen that desperately […]

After defensive miscues played a major role in the Yankees’ defeat in the 2024 World Series, the Yankees clearly made it a priority to strengthen their performance with the glove in 2025, as they brought in a trio of Gold Glovers in Cody Bellinger, Max Fried, and Paul Goldschmidt during the winter, shifted Jazz Chisholm […]

This is the first in a short series about potential contract extensions for young Cubs players. Let me preface all of these by saying that it’s unlikely any of them will happen. Because of a potential lockout after the 2026 season and uncertainty about what’s going to happen beyond Dec. 1, 2026, when the MLB/MLBPA […]

I’m winding down this series on great hitting seasons. Only one more installment to go. With the passing of the years, it’s easy to forget just how good a hitter Henry Aaron was. His Baseball Reference page is filled with bold black and blue entries. He was a 25-time All-Star. That alone is a staggering […]

Your Los Angeles Dodgers are going back to the World Series, and they only are because of what we the fans do -all the crazy, kooky things we do to make it happen. Well, maybe the team has a little bit to do with it. But they obviously can’t do it without the fans and […]

The pennants have been captured, and the Fall Classic awaits. Adding insult to injury, the Series not only fails to feature our Phillies, but instead includes two clubs who are not particularly fondly remembered in the City of Brotherly Love: the Blue Jays, whose last title in 1993 came at the hands of Joe Carter […]

Jorge Mateo has always been a player who is easy to dream on. He’s athletic and fast and a defensive whiz. When he gets on base, fun things happen. His offense has never really come together, but he has had enough hot stretches that you can just imagine the player he could be. At the […]

One year ago today, the Jays hired David Popkins as their new hitting coach. At the end of the post about the signing, I wrote “Hopefully, he’ll find a way to get our guys scoring more.” Well, he did. In 2024, the Jays hit .241/.313/.389, scoring 4.14 runs per game. In 2025, the Jays hit […]
