Greetings, Brew Crew Ball community. The Brewers dropped their first two games in Atlanta over the weekend, but they bounced back nicely to win the series finale before sweeping the Reds in Cincinnati to extend their division lead. After a well-deserved off day yesterday, they’re now set to begin an 18-game gauntlet over the next […]
The Phillies are heading to Queens for the first time this season. There, they will find a reeling Mets squad that would surely love to rattle off a few victories over their hated foe as a mood-lifter. They will also find some really, really good Chinese food. I had a plate of rice rolls there […]

The Detroit Tigers officially reached the halfway mark of the 2026 regular-season schedule on Thursday night after dropping the opener of a four-game home series with the Houston Astros, 2-1. Troy Melton looked sharp, recording a career high six strikeouts, but the offense went AWOL until a solo homer in the ninth by Dillon Dingler. […]
Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (38-37/2-1) LEHIGH VALLEY 7, SYRACUSE 3 (BOX) Just nothing very interesting or exciting to talk about here. Ryan Clifford still isn’t really hitting. Ryan Lambert is still struggling. Oh well. Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (27-42/1-2) BINGHAMTON 10, ERIE 7 (BOX) Big offensive day for the Rumble Ponies. Homers for Jose Ramos and Nick Lorusso carried the […]
The Cardinals are in the midst of a fascinating rebuild. Unlike most rebuilds, this one does not involve tanking. Quite the opposite, the 2026 Cardinals find themselves in the #1 wild card slot at the time of writing. Some of you might rightfully argue that the rebuild really began at the trading deadline late in […]

MLB fans have made their voices heard. With the first round of all-star voting complete, let's take a look at the projected starting lineups for the 2026 mid-summer classic.
Mizzou’s 5-star freshman is a bit of a polarizing prospect for the early draftniks. Crowe’s best outlook so far comes from SI.com’s Kevin Sweeney where he ranked Crowe the 7th best prospect for next year. ESPN’s Jeremy Woo has Crowe 8th. After that things get dicey. Sam Vecenie from the Athletic, still had a mostly […]
The Yankees dropped their series opener against the Red Sox in a rather sloppy effort, with several errors culminating in Cam Schlittler allowing a four-run fifth inning capitalized by a big two-run home run off the bat of former Yankee prospect Caleb Durbin. That blew what was a 2-0 New York lead up until that […]
Toledo Mud Hens 3, Worcester Red Sox 2 (box) The Hens scored in the top of the tenth after a well pitched game, and reliever Jack Little slammed the door, striking out the side in the bottom half to win in Worcester on Thursday. Sawyer Gipson-Long has pitched better of late, and he turned in […]
