The American League East has been a bit of a mess so far this year. The Yankees squandered a strong opening week, but the rest of the division has similarly alternated between dominance and disaster. Entering Tuesday night, everybody is within four games of .500. It’s a perfect time to sprinkle a little rivalry into […]
The Braves stormed into DC and knocked off the Nats in game one of the series. Now, the Nats will look to even things up in their four game set with the division leaders. To do so, they need to tighten up defensively. The errors have been piling up for the Nats lately. This is […]
Can the Braves win seven in a row? Can Reynaldo Lopez have another good outing? Is Jake Irvin actually just Jose Urena in some kind of weird Face/Off thing? Stay tuned and find out. Maybe.

The San Francisco Giants made a roster move on Tuesday afternoon, a few hours before starting a series against their rivals, the Los Angeles Dodgers. And unfortunately, it’s a move that sees one of the best stories of the young season come to a halt … for a while, at least. San Francisco announced that […]
Freddie Freeman was activated off the paternity list ahead of Tuesday’s series opener against the San Francisco Giants at Oracle Park, after the Dodgers first baseman missed two games for the birth of his daughter. Freeman and wife Chelsea welcomed their fourth child on Sunday, London Rosemary Joy Freeman, they announced on Instagram. In the […]
Anytime the Yankees show up on the schedule, regardless of the standings, it presents an opportunity for either a dramatic shift in mood, or a dramatic amplification of whatever mood is already in place. Tonight is no different as the Red Sox and Yankees meet for the first time in 2026 with the Red Sox […]
Entering the 2026 season, the Pittsburgh Pirates starting rotation contained the reigning Cy Young winner, the No. 2 pitching prospect in baseball, and the former franchise leader in strikeouts by a right-handed pitcher. None of the three, or Braxton Ashcraft, have been the Pirates best starting pitcher this year. It’s the guy everyone, including myself, […]
The Seattle Mariners announced Tuesday afternoon that they have designated RHP Casey Legumina for assignment, recalling rookie RHP Alex Hoppe for additional bullpen depth. The move comes on the heels of a difficult outing for Legumina, but the righty had been reasonably effective in the early stages of the season prior to being tasked with […]
It is undeniable that the heartbeat of the Cincinnati Reds roster is their starting pitching. During the 2025 regular season, in particular, that group posted an impressive 19.4 fWAR combined, a mark that was good for third-best in all of Major League Baseball (behind only the big spending Philadelphia Phillies and Los Angeles Dodgers). That’s […]

The San Diego Padres’ offense met its match in Orange County this weekend. But the challenge did not seem to affect their starting arms. With a chance to win a road series against the Los Angeles Angels, Michael King had another strong start. He bolstered his claim to the No. 1 starter role by allowing […]
According to manager Carlos Mendoza, the Mets are calling up Christian Scott to start Thursday’s game with the Minnesota Twins. Kodai Senga will remain in the rotation for now, while David Peterson will be in the bullpen for at least this turn through the rotation. Due to that, it is likely that a reliever will […]
Clemson dropped its weekend series to UVA, 2-1. The Cavaliers took the Thursday and Saturday games, with the Tigers picking up Friday’s contest. Clemson drops to 25-16 on the season and continues to suck out loud in ACC play at 6-12. Here’s how it went down… Thursday: 4 – 6 – UVA Win: Zatkowski (6-0) […]
No worries, Ronald Acuña Jr. hasn’t gone anywhere. Also, Eli White returns to the starting lineup in an outfield corner. Usually, I do a batter-versus-pitcher thing, but there’s not much to do here. Foster Griffin made one MLB appearance in 2020 and six more in 2022, and then went to Japan. No one in this lineup […]
The Diamondbacks once again come out of another series taking 2 of 3 from the defending AL Champs. After just coming back from a road trip with a bunch of 2-1 series wins spilling out of their car onto the driveway, they continue their habit of trading a loss for two wins. One can only […]
Listen, there is no good introduction to this other than to just give you a trigger warning because if you read on, you will see the worst meter you have ever laid your eyes upon. And once you lay your eyes upon it, you will not be able to unsee it. I can’t. I don’t […]
After an 8-0 shellacking by the Los Angeles Angels in Game 1, the San Diego Padres wasted no time continuing their winning ways. They took Game 2 of the series, 4-1, and followed it up on Sunday with a narrow 2-1 victory in the series finale. Michael King looked his usually dominant self, pitching five […]

UPDATE: The Red Sox will call up Rivera ahead of Wednesday’s game against the Yankees, according to multiple reports.
