The Dodgers will turn to Yoshinobu Yamamoto on Saturday in hopes to end their seven-game losing streak, a stretch in which nothing really seems to match up properly. Yamamoto pitched quite well last Saturday at home, allowing three runs in eight innings to the Boston Red Sox, but that was a game in which the […]
The Los Angeles Dodgers have reached their 2026 low after dropping seven consecutive games. Still, the skid carries a historical parallel that offers perspective amid the club’s slide. Los Angeles lost 4-3 to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday after Ryan Waldschmidt hit a two-run walk-off home run at Chase Field. The defeat gave the Dodgers […] The post Dodgers’ 7-game losing streak comes with familiar silver lining appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Jaxson Dart got the ball out against pressure at Giants camp and made the first-team offense look more settled.
Despite playing excellent baseball as of late, the Chicago Cubs remain 5.5 games back of the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central. In order to make a push at them, the Cubs need to sweep their upcoming series against bad teams.
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Cubs fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. The Cubs made three major acquisitions before Monday’s MLB Trade Deadline: starting pitchers Kevin Gausman and Clay Holmes, and […]
At last Monday’s Trade Deadline, the Yankees had an opportunity to augment a bullpen that, despite ranking second in MLB in both ERA and xERA, seemingly had room for another high-end arm. Instead, GM Brian Cashman traded away Camilo Doval, Jake Bird, and Yovanny Cruz. The most charitable interpretation here is addition by subtraction. Doval […]
Good morning! When Munetaka Murakami went off for 6 RBI against Houston on his bobblehead day , he cemented a franchise first: four separate players, in their first 140 games, to log at least five RBI in a game in the same season. Are there a few qualifiers in there to make it a first? Sure. At the same time, though, only two other iterations managed three instances: 1991 (the same player each time), and 1921 (three different players). This has been a fun season thus far, likely continues to...
Monday’s trade deadline action didn’t exactly go on-script for the Cincinnati Reds. At least, it sure didn’t follow the script most everyone across the nation expected to see play out. The Reds, mired in last place and with a New Jersey Turnpike full of teams ahead of them in the Wild Card race, looked like […]

Despite the Boston Red Sox' recent surge up the standings over the past month, New York Yankees play-by-play announcer Michael Kay is standing by comments he made back in June.
Seven consecutive losses demand more than a shrug from the Los Angeles Dodgers. Their offense has stalled, their pitching depth has been exposed, and their bullpen has struggled to finish games. The skid has also cost Los Angeles control of a first-round postseason bye. Concern is warranted. Panic is not. The Dodgers have played poorly […] The post Why Dodgers shouldn’t panic despite sudden 7-game losing streak appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Austin Wells has had a rough season, but his ninth-inning double was a major moment in the Yankees' extra-inning win.
The Cleveland Guardians spent the trade deadline behaving like a team confident in where they were headed, but only if several changes were addressed. The offense had stalled. The rotation needed another reliable arm. Several players who had been given extended opportunities were no longer producing enough to justify the patience, and the American League […] The post Will the Guardians’ Aggressive Deadline Vault Them in the AL Central? appeared first on Just Baseball .
With the Chicago Cubs clashing with the Kansas City Royals this weekend, Friday’s 6-4 win displayed the debut of starting pitcher Kevin Gausman, who was traded to the team from the Toronto Blue Jays.

Spurs have been handed a boost in their chase for a new forward.
15 Years Ago Brandon Morrow pitched 8.2 no-hit innings, leading the Blue Jays to a 1-0 victory. It was likely the best pitching performance I have ever witnessed.

Commanders Commanders first-round LB Sonny Styles has been one of the highlights of Washington’s training camp so far, so much so that HC Dan Quinn has some interesting feedback for him — make more mistakes.
