Walker Janek, the Astros first round pick from 2024, if off to a tremendous start. He’s played in 7 games and leads the Arizona Fall League with 18 runs batted in. He’s also connected on 3 doubles and 3 home runs. This included a ridiculous 7 RBI last Friday. Great start for Janek. Joseph Sullivan had […]

With the Detroit Tigers’ season officially over at the hands of the Seattle Mariners, it’s time to take a slightly too early look at some upcoming roster situations. Our very own Patrick covered the offseason timeline as a whole here, so I won’t be getting into too much detail there. Instead, I’ll skip straight to […]

Game 7 of the 2025 ALCS gave us an instant classic. I hope the World Series can match that energy because nothing says autumn like checking in on high-drama baseball in the moments when I’m not obsessing about the Chicago Bears. Episode V of The Bleacher Nation Bears podcast is HERE! You can listen wherever you get your podcasts. Sure, that means Apple and Spotify for many of you. But you can also subscribe and follow on YouTube . In this week’s episode, we tackle Caleb Williams’ ba...

The question as one kicks off any Kyle Schwarber, Cubs-related post: can I get through this without relitigating the financially-motivated decision to non-tender Schwarber after the 2020 season? We all know the story by now, I think I can avoid some redundancy, save for the mention that, since the Cubs almost certainly would’ve traded Schwarber during the 2021 sell-off anyway, it’s probable that everything else would’ve played out as it did even if the Cubs had initially kept Schwarber. I...

Artemi Panarin is in a familiar place at the top of the New York Rangers scoring stats through eight games. But how much longer will he be in the familiar confines of Madison Square Garden? That's the big question surrounding the Blueshirts' perennial leading scorer. Panarin, 34 next week, is in the final season of his 7-year, $81.5 million contract ($11.6M AAV), and is a pending unrestricted free agent next July. We've already heard that he refused the Rangers' request for him to take a...

Another Sabres star might be getting restless, and if history’s about to repeat itself, the Rangers might just be in position to write a better ending this time.

The actual season that Weston Wilson played is totally fine: bland, average, fungible. He’s a bench player and no more. There is honor in that as teams are always looking for bench bats that can produce. His path was marred by injury, but his actual place on the roster brings up some questions about how […]

So the World Series matchup is finally set. The mighty Los Angeles Dodgers will be facing off against the pride of Canada, the Toronto Blue Jays. We expected the Dodgers to be here, but that was not the case for the Jays. The Jays won 74 games last year and had longer odds to win […]

We have five days to talk about last night’s game (and I won’t get tired of doing that). The Mariners had their own bullpen usage controversy. Seventh inning. Bryan Woo has given up a walk and a single. With the addition (I spelled that addison at first) of a bunt, the Jays had the tying […]

Annie Potts usually isn't in a hockey story, but this image seemed perfect considering the line she delivered while standing in a firehouse in New York City. One could make the case that Madison Square Garden needed a fire lit in it for tonight's game as the New York Rangers hosted the Minnesota Wild while looking to reqrite the histroy books when it came to scoring goals at home. As you may recall, the Rangers hadn't done that yet , and they stood 7:19 away from breaking the NHL's all-time re...

Bread is served—but not much else. Artemi Panarin snapped the home goose egg, yet the Rangers couldn’t build on it as Minnesota controlled nearly everything else.

Josh covered this topic in After Dark last week but I thought I’d weigh in on Shōta Imanaga’s deal myself, as we don’t have much Cubs news these days and are awaiting the World Series to begin three days from now, Friday evening in Toronto. The Cubs left-hander from Japan signed a complicated deal with […]

I have a lot to say about this season, but for now, I will just say thank you to everyone who stuck with us during this long ride and never gave up. This is the best Mariners team I have ever witnessed in my 22 years of existence and I am forever grateful to share […]

As we all know, the National League Champion was a done deal last week. Some may say even before that, but that’s a different discussion. But last night the two greatest words in baseball were uttered and played out for us all to witness, ‘Game Seven’. There’s nothing like it. And we had a GAME […]

The Mets used 66 players in 2025, with 46 of those appearing on a pitching mound at some point in their 162 games. While some 2025 performances are not soon to be forgotten (Juan Soto’s 43 home runs, Nolan McLean’s phenomenal second half), there are a fair number of players who, if you haven’t already […]

The 2025 season has come and gone for the Yankees. There were plenty of highlights, as Jeremy showed yesterday, but there were also plenty of lowlights. Today, we will, unfortunately, look at those lowlights in Pinstripe Alley’s annual installment of the worst moments of the 2025 season. (Dis)honorable mentions 5. Gerrit Cole goes under the […]

The Royals have typically treated Double-A as the extended last stop for top prospects. This year, Carter Jensen played 68 games for the Naturals, Ben Kudrna pitched in 20 games, but Jac Caglianone spent just over a month in Northwest Arkansas. Other former first round picks like outfielder Gavin Cross and left-hander Frank Mozzicato also […]
