The Baltimore Orioles are a beautiful mess that makes absolutely zero sense
The Orioles are not a good team. They haven’t been a consistently great team since the late ’90s. Sure they had that one season in 2014 where they got swept in the ALCS after winning their first division title in 17 years, but were only good for that one season. The Orioles have finished either 4th ...
Not sure if you’ve noticed, but it’s July and the Giants are still In first place

No, you don’t fix the Yankees by trading Aaron Judge
Trade season is underway in baseball, with the Blue Jays acquiring Adam Cimber and Corey Dickerson from the Marlins, while the White Sox pursue Diamondbacks infielder Eduardo Escobar. The deadline is back to its usual date of July 31 this year, and over the next month, plenty of teams will try to pa...

Hey Cardinals fans, would you still rather have Arenado, or Arozarena and Garcia?
First off, I want everyone to know that I know that neither Randy Arozarena nor Adolis Garcia were pieces in St. Louis’s trade for the former Rockies’ third baseman. This is merely a hypothetical question. Both of the young up-and-comers started their professional baseball careers within the St. Lou...

Is this like when LeBron James opted out of the dunk contest early on in his career? Maybe....
The new MLB All-Star jerseys are not great
I don’t usually get too worked up about uniforms. That’s probably because the teams I grew up supporting never strayed from their usual colors. I can say “Big Blue” and “pinstripes” and you’ll probably know who I’m talking about....
Driving pitchers crazy is the point — you can tell from Rob Manfred’s grin
You can be forgiven if you thought the MLBPA had figured out Rob Manfred’s game. The way they left him completely naked over last year’s 60-game season, or refused to move the season back a month this time around which would have opened up the CBA again, the union seemed to have finally figured out ...

It’s always neat when a European sporting event comes along and provides some games to watch during the daytime hours here in North America. Right now, it’s the pandemic-delayed Euro 2020 soccer tournament, and while the teams involved are national sides, part of the nature of soccer is that there’s...
