Not many things went right with the 2025 Orioles season. One recurring problem was a lineup where a large chunk of the roster underperformed their expectations and almost nobody exceeded them.

But the outfield corps lost two-thirds of its starters when free agency began yesterday, with Cody Bellinger opting out of his […]

It would be different if the Tigers were getting their numbers up late in the recruiting trail with low-end three star recruits just to fill numbers. But that’s not what’s happening. In the past month, Mizzou has added its top four recruits according to 247Sports and On3, and have shown no signs of slowing down. […]

The pool of edge rush options for the 49ers at the trade deadline has decreased slightly.

Yet […]

Now that the fun begins, let’s put to bed one of the fallacies that is following the thriller that was Game 7: MLB doesn’t need a salary cap. That’s just crazy. MLB needs more owners to act like they want to do something other than create a tremendous profit for themselves. Not really a common […]

As expected, San Diego Padres starter Michael King exercised his option to opt-out of his deal with the team, making him a free agent. The Padres could, and should, extend a qualifying offer to King, which if accepted, would give him a one-year, $22.025 million contract for the 2026 season. If King declines the offer […]
