Behind the dish the Cincinnati Reds boast both Tyler Stephenson and Jose Trevino for the 2026 season, a quality combination of experience, defense, and even some timely offense sprinkled in. The starting rotation that will chuck baseballs their way is also mostly set, the only unknown precisely how the depth at its back-end gets shuffled […]

The Cardinals system is in a very good place. I don’t know how I personally feel about Brandon Clarke – I genuinely don’t know what my list will be at the end right now – but Clarke is a fringey but probably not actual top 100 prospect. You guys have ranked him 9th in the […]

Baseball will start this week but will it? The Nats are a team in limbo in every way. They have no home station. They have no home coverage. Under new leadership they have no direction (yet). They have an ownership as stable as the next rumor that they are trying to sell. They are a baseball team this year because they were a baseball team last year and baseball teams just don't go away. This Spring will be an exercise in finding the bright spots. In again looking for what mi...

14. Roc Riggio (294 points, 19 ballots) Riggio, who was the headline prospect in the Jake Bird trade with the Yankees near last year’s trade deadline, is a decent up-the-middle defender who has both power and patience at the plate, all in a compact 5’9” package. The 23-year-old lefty-hitting, righty-throwing second baseman had a breakout […]

I met Clete Boyer once. In his later years, Boyer spent summers in Cooperstown, and my family went to see the Hall of Fame once almost every summer in the mid-2000s. We had a running joke about Boyer because every time we went, there was a sign in the downtown that said “Clete Boyer: SIGNING […]

As you will recall, about a year ago MLB and ESPN jointly agreed to void the final three years of their deal. That would have been it between MLB and the “Worldwide Leader,” but later in 2025 the league and the channel put together another agreement that will keep baseball on ESPN this year, though […]

Baseball is all about probabilities, and that theorem also applies to prospects trying to become big leaguers. All players in professional ball have talent, of course; it’s just that the competition level is so high and the margin for error so thin that there is a chance of failure for just about everyone. So what […]

Earlier this winter, the Mets signed outfielder Cristian Pache to a minor league deal with an invite to spring training, a very standard offseason contract for a player looking to revitalize a stalled major league career. Pache, who last appeared in a major league game in 2024, will look to claim a roster spot after […]

Pitchers and catchers report to camp tomorrow, and the Washington Nationals roster still feels painfully incomplete. Even for a team that does not have serious playoff aspirations, there are still holes that need to be filled. The team lacks veteran leaders and proven commodities. Hopefully new President of Baseball Operations Paul Toboni can do something […]

I also write a regular feature over at Battle Red Blog. It is called “Value of Things” and that title fits fairly comfortably with this piece and what is ultimately behind the lab. There are two separate questions when it comes to major sports teams. The first question is whether they are reasonably investing everything […]

It’s time for some honest reflection here, friends. Raise your hand if you thought Mizzou’s first SEC win of the season would come against no. 2 Florida (who now is #5, by the way). Yeah…. that’s what I thought. And that’s okay; I didn’t think it would happen either and just wanted a good score!! […]
