I’d say “stop me if you heard this one before,” but you can’t stop me, because I have a recap to write. The Braves fell behind early, and didn’t hit any homers, losing a close-ish game on the margins to the Twins. When you don’t hit homers, you need BABIP, and when you don’t get […]
All season long, Milwaukee Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski has been among the most-talked about players in all Major League Baseball. Already this season, he has set the MLB record for most 100 mph pitches thrown by a starter, and shows no sign of slowing down. Indeed, Misiorowski’s velocity is what put him on the radar, [...]

Dominant from the get-go, the Dodgers cruised through an 11-5 win over the Rockies. And fair or not, too many times this season, particularly as of late, it has felt as though this team didn’t live up to the expectations of dominating a starting pitcher in a matchup they should handle. While the end product […]
PHILADELPHIA — Marlins manager Clayton McCullough walked onto the field with his arms outstretched and was thrown out by third-base umpire Todd Tichenor for arguing after a replay review.

Jake Haener and Chandler Martin signed, Dante Miller waived with a groin injury, Sam Webb retired and Najee Harris visited: the Giants' roster moves of Aug. 17.
A king can get knocked around. It can lose three straight games at home. It can even trail by two runs in the seventh inning with a four-game sweep creeping closer. But, as D’Angelo Barksdale once explained on The Wire, “The king stay the king, aight.” Jonny DeLuca helped the Rays remain atop the American […]
The Mariners are signing utility player Andy Ibáñez to a minor league contract, reports Francys Romero. He’ll presumably go to Triple-A Tacoma once the deal is finalized.

Record: 66-60. Pace: 85-77. Change on 2025: +6. Well, this was ugly in every conceivable way. However, the Diamondbacks can perhaps be forgiven for being “off” this evening in Boston, as matters off the field took center stage. Face of the franchise Ketel Marte no-showed at Fenway Park this afternoon, forcing a roster change with […]

The Athletics began the week with a Monday night matchup against the Kansas City Royals in the first game of this four-game series.

The Milwaukee Brewers enjoyed an off day on Monday following their series victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Their victory on Sunday, which saw Logan Henderson outduel Tarik Skubal, gave them a 3-1 series win and gave them a 10-7 record during their stretch of 17 games in 17 days. Indeed, it was not an [...]
BOSTON — The pending storyline ahead of the Arizona Diamondbacks’ game against the Boston Red Sox suddenly shifted away from the matchup itself and toward where second baseman Ketel Marte was.

Early in the season, and even right up to mid-year, Milwaukee Brewers fans were pretty fed up with starting shortstop Joey Ortiz. One could hardly blame them. In March/April, Ortiz hit just .197/.284/.197 with no home runs and six RBI. He was even worse in May, hitting a woeful .177/.290/.275 with a home run and [...]

Maria Menounos is a cancer survivor. The Medford native was the third or fourth scheduled Jimmy Fund-supported appearance on tonight’s broadcast/telethon, the scheduling of which was impeccable. The Sox pulled ahead and away early and never let up, and the appearance of Menounos and other affected families was more conspicuous on the broadcast than ever, […]
