Blue Jays add Bo Bichette, Ty France to World Series roster

I figured Bo Bichette was going to be on the roster. Ty France was a surprise, but I guess they want him as a pitch hitter against the Dodgers left-hander pitchers. Joey Loperfido and Yariel Rodriguez. Rodriguez has had a tough time of it lately, giving up three earned and two home runs in one […]

2025 Season in Review: Kyle Isbel

I will admit that I’ve never been much of a Kyle Isbel guy. I’m generally not a huge fan of players who derive all of their value from fielding, which has been Isbel’s story in the majors. When I saw that I was writing about Isbel in our Season in Review series, however, I realized […]

Cubs contracts: An extension proposal for Cade Horton

A reminder that since the Cubs aren’t likely going to go beyond 2026 for these sorts of things, this is probably just a thought exercise. But let’s give it a shot anyway!

Quick bites: Sharks finally get a win

It was a struggle to get there and it wasn’t a pretty path, but the San Jose Sharks can finally say the team has a win this season.
