The Mariners will try to extend their win streak to four games (on fields without standing water). The Mariners send out their “we’re facing a righty” lineup against Joe Ryan, who’s the Twins best starting pitcher this year with a 3.22 FIP. The Mariners will likely see a heavy dose of fastballs and sinkers, with […]
After four straight trips to the playoffs, including a World Series appearance in 2022, the 9-19 Philadelphia Phillies fired manager Rob Thomson Tuesday morning. The move was made for a number of reasons but we can safely conclude that the timing of the firing was inspired by abject fear of facing a red-hot San Francisco […]
PHILADELPHIA — All Rob Thomson knows is accountability. If there was anyone to blame for the Phillies’ 9-19 start, place the blame on Thomson. That’s how Thomson carried himself to the end. Even though Thomson was let go on Tuesday, he felt it was important to speak to the people that treated him fairly over […]
The White Sox are coming off a wild, late-night win on Monday, defeating the Angels after a long three-hour rain delay, with the game not ending until the wee hours of this morning. Ideally, for today, we can hope that the weather is much better, the game ends at a normal time, and that there’s […]
The Atlanta Braves look to continue as the only team in MLB to not lose a series after going 10-3 after thirteen straight games in their own division. The Tigers have been good in their own right being in first place in their division while sporting one of the best top three rotation arms in […]

Today’s Lineups MARINERS TWINS J.P. Crawford […]
Yesavage is back. Yay. And we are facing a lefty, for the second day in a row. It went so well yesterday. The lineup is much the same as yesterday, but Andres Gimenez is in after missing a couple of games. George Springer faced live pitching in batting practice again. He must be close to […]
In a battle of potential young studs on the mound, Payton Tolle is set to take on Trey Yesavage. Tolle is coming off an electric outing against the Yankees, which Over The Monster’s own Jake Roy went into detail about earlier this morning. If you haven’t read that piece, go do it right now because […]
The Nats are headed to Queens to face a Mets team that has fallen on their face so far this season. They are 9-19, which is tied for the worst record in baseball. With Alex Cora and Rob Thomson having been fired, Carlos Mendoza’s seat is red hot. However, a wounded animal can be the […]
The San Diego Padres nearly let this one slip. After a devastating 12-7 loss that included the Arizona Diamondbacks scoring 11 unanswered runs on Sunday, the Friars quickly got back in the win column with a 9-7 victory over the red-hot Chicago Cubs. Both starters were tagged for five runs, but the Friars had the […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will have a hard time topping their come-from-behind thriller Monday night when they scored 4 ninth inning runs to beat Pittsburgh 4-2. However, maybe they can score some runs before the 9th inning Tuesday night when Kyle Leahy gets the start for St. Louis. Braxton Ashcraft will take the mound for […]
After breaking a four-game losing streak on Sunday, the Brewers are back tonight to continue their homestand. Next up are the Arizona Diamondbacks, who are in for a three-game series. For the Brewers, Chad Patrick is on the mound tonight. He’s coming off a rough appearance in Detroit, where he allowed four runs in four […]
The San Francisco Giants head east today to begin a three-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies.

His last start was in the Giants’ 3-0 […]

Tonight begins the third series in a row in which the O’s face a team currently sitting in last place in its division. It’s unusual to find the Astros resembling that remark, as they’ve been consistently good for the better part of a decade, making the playoffs eight times in the last ten years. The […]
After recent news broke that a British heavyweight fight between Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury had finally been signed, it was a bit curious that the announcement came without a specific date or venue. In an interview with Fight Hype, Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn confirms that they have actually put pen to paper for a […]
Here are the lineups. For the Phillies: For the Giants: Let’s talk about.
The Houston Astros (11-18) begin a 6-game road trip tonight with the first game of a 3-game series against the Baltimore Orioles (13-15) at Camden Yards. RHP Kai-Wei Teng (1-1, 2.16 ERA) will make his first start and 12th appearance of the season as he takes on Orioles starter RHP Shane Baz (0-2, 5.08 ERA). […]
The Cincinnati Reds open up a midweek series against the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday in Great American Ball Park, and do so with righty Chase Burns on the mound to start. The Rockies, meanwhile, will roll out veteran lefty Kyle Freeland – fresh off an IL stint – and the Reds have made the requisite […]

The Colorado Rockies are surely feeling good about life since they are coming off a three-game sweep of the New York Mets at Citi Field. Worth noting, Colorado sits at 13-16 on the season, their best start through 29 games since 2022, when they got off to a 16-13 start. In addition, the Rockies are […]
The Mets hadn’t officially listed who their starting pitcher would be for the second game of their series against the Nationals until this afternoon, but it’s official now: David Peterson is getting the start. The 30-year-old lefty had lost his rotation spot after a string of very bad outings, but he’s fared better working multiple […]
