The Yankees have already locked up the series win, but Thursday evening presents a bigger opportunity.

The formula through the first two games has been simple and effective: dominant […]
For the Nats big name players, today was a productive game. However, it did not come in a winning effort, with the Nats dropping this one 7-2. In a surprise to absolutely nobody, the bullpen could not hold down the fort. Cionel Perez and Gus Varland did not have it in a damaging 7th inning […]

Boston will roll out yet another interesting lineup in the series finale, as they remain without Roman Anthony (back soreness). Jarren […]
A four-game series within the division on the road is always interesting. It was especially interesting considering that the Washington Nationals were heading into this series having scored the third-most runs in the National League (fourth overall) with a MLB-leading 22 of those runs coming in the first inning of their games played so far. […]
Texas Rangers lineup for April 23, 2026 against the Pittsburgh Pirates: starting pitchers are Jacob deGrom for the Rangers and Bubba Chandler for the Pirates. It is the rubber game of the series, and the Rangers are looking to bounce back from yesterday’s unpleasantness to take the series. Alejandro Osuna makes his season debut. The […]
Michael Harris II has had a fantastic series as he has absolutely feasted upon the pitching that the Washington Nationals have served up for him. Hopefully, he’ll be able to take that with him back to Atlanta instead of the IL, as Harris has been removed from Thursday afternoon’s game ahead of the bottom of […]
Box Score The Brewers nearly won a pitching duel between Tarik Skubal and Brandon Sproat, but the bullpen couldn’t hold the lead.

The Mets have placed Francisco Lindor on the 10-day injured list with a left calf strain, the team has announced.

The year is 1997. Liván Hernández takes the mound for the Marlins in Game 5 of the NLCS against the Braves. Little did the Braves, the fans in attendance, and those tuning in know that they were about to witness one of the most outrageous displays of home plate umpiring in MLB history. Granted, Greg […]
It’s our second early game of the week, but thankfully this one wasn’t so early we needed coffee to get through it. The Tigers were hoping to come away with a series win, and with Tarik Skubal on the mound, that could only help their case. They had a great game on Wednesday night, and […]
JR Ritchie’s major league debut couldn’t have started much worse. He gave up a home run on very his first pitch. From there, though, he certainly looked like he belonged. The 2022 first-round pick, called up to close out the Braves’ road trip in Washington Thursday afternoon, didn’t just excel in his debut. He set […]
Dodgers offense has nowhere to go but up in this series. Thursday game info
Whether or not the Los Angeles Rams could trade up for running back Jeremiyah Love rests entirely in the hands of a division rival. If the Cardinals want Love, then he’s going to be drafted by Arizona at three. And if another team wants to trade up to three for Love, a spot that the […]
The San Francisco Giants wrap up this three-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers this afternoon from Oracle Park.

Every draft cycle has a surprise story — a player who slipped through the cracks, defied expectations, and made evaluators question what they missed. In 2026, that story belongs to Jordan van den Berg, a name most draft rooms weren’t tracking until very recently. A native of Johannesburg, South Africa, van den Berg’s path to […]
If you are a MLB team, you’ll have fallow stretches. Let’s consider the 2025 season: The World Series winning Los Angeles Dodgers went 10-14 in the month of July, but still secured their division with a 93-69 record en route to MLB’s first repeat title winner in 25 years. April 10-May 7 saw the Toronto […]
The wagon keeps on rolling for the second-ranked Diamond Heels, who followed up a huge series win against Georgia Tech by dispatching a legitimately decent High Point team.

It’s rubber match time in the Battle of the Bats between two teams that have scored 34 runs, walloped 12 homers, and — most amazing — sped to six triples in the first two games of the series. On the White Sox side, Munetaka Murakami has homered in five games in a row, tying team […]
