Nick Deeds at MLB Trade Rumors writes that the Royals’ pitching depth is ripe for a trade. Bubic dominated this season with a 2.55 ERA and 2.90 FIP in 20 starts that earned him an All-Star nod, and while a rotator cuff strain ended his 2025 campaign early he’s expected to have a normal offseason […]

Sunday’s Clasico was full of controversy as usual but one incident in particular caught the eye from a Barcelona perspective. Real Madrid captain Dani Carvajal pushed Ronald Araujo late on in the game in the penalty area in a collision that went unpunished by referee César Soto Grado. Even former ref Mateu Lahoz was surprised […]

When Aron Estrada’s 2024 season in review was posted here on Camden Chat, Mark Brown called him the best Orioles prospect you don’t know yet. One year later, Estrada has followed his good 2024 season with an even better 2025. I think it’s fair to say that, if you follow Orioles prospects at all, you […]

Last week, I tried to take a peek into what would be necessary to trade Nolan Arenado, and as expected, the conclusion was that the Cardinals would have to include more than half of his salary and also not really get anything back. I may revisit Arenado trade possibilities by looking into bad contract swaps […]

As the Milwaukee Brewers’ season retreats further into the rearview mirror, we are naturally starting to think about the offseason, which will begin in earnest at the Winter Meetings the week of December 7. The Brewers should have money to spend this offseason, and they certainly have the chips to make a trade if they […]

The Rams, Seahawks, and San Francisco 49ers were in a three-way tie with identical 5-2-0 records going into Week 8. The Cardinals brought up the rear with a 2-5-0 record.

Mizzou suffered their second loss of the season on the road by the final score of 17-10 to Vanderbilt. It was close, but no cigar (just like the loss to Alabama). In a competitive game on the road against a top-10 opponent, Mizzou had some contributors step up but couldn’t quite finish the deal. Let’s […]

The World Series is fully underway. While the rest of the baseball world focuses on the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays trading blows, fans of the Colorado Rockies are waiting for something else. The Rockies will hopefully hire their new head of baseball operations within the next two weeks. The two known finalists […]

1876 Some 24 years before the White Sox were even founded, a key member of the later-1900s Pale Hose was born on this day. Patrick “Patsy” Doughtery of Andover, N.Y. came to the White Sox during their 1906 World Series-winning season. The club purchased Doughterty from the New York Highlanders on June 6, when the […]

Good morning, Camden Chatters. We have major Orioles news! This is not a drill. The O’s apparently have made their decision on a new manager, reportedly finalizing a deal with Craig Albernaz to be their new skipper, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan. The Orioles have not yet made an announcement.’ This was kind of an unexpected […]

The World Series shifts to Los Angeles today and I have to say: been a pretty good series thus far. Watching the Dodgers get their doors blown off is always fun, but I’m also one of those pitching duel aficionados that actually prefers those types of games to a 12-10 homer fest. I enjoyed Game […]

It’s a strange October: Montreal and Detroit lead the Atlantic, Utah leads the West, and the Rangers are last in the East. Their four-game winning streak stopped via shootout, the Islanders (currently still in the second wild card) are now preparing for tomorrow night in Boston. That’s before the road trip continues with a tough […]

Barcelona’s Clasico clash with Real Madrid on Sunday brought about plenty of chaos and controversy as is the norm when the two bitter rivals meet. VAR played its role in the game and the audios have now been released. Let’s take a look: The first audio relates to the early decision to rule out a […]

Before the Boston Red Sox won the 2004 World Series, they had a long and pretty amazing history of futility known as the curse, or, more fully, the Curse of the Bambino, so-called because the Red Sox traded Babe Ruth to New York in 1919 (it was formally announced shortly after New Year’s Day). The […]

In the lead up to Week 8, I felt like the Philadelphia Eagles needed to make a statement against the New York Giants. The Birds needed to get back at the team that embarrassed them on a national stage in Week 6. My stance on the Eagles needing to score style points softened once we […]

Last week, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett said that Green Bay Packers fans making the trip out west forced the Cardinals’ offense to have to use their silent count at home. This isn’t anything new for the Packers, one of the bigger fan bases in the league, but it does seem to be a recurring […]

After four years of experimentation in the minor leagues, MLB will allow teams to challenge umpires’ ball-strike calls based on the results of an automated system. The challenges are limited in number, but presumably this will allow teams to overturn the most egregious errors by the plate umpire. The exact format has not been specified, […]
