Jets Fans Cheer Rookie Who Says He'd Prefer To Die On The Field
The Jets held a forum at training camp today in which a group of about 150 fans got to ask questions of players.

The NL East played a little role-player musical chairs Friday: the Phillies, owners of the worst record in all of baseball, sent outfielder Howie Kendrick to the Nationals for 21-year-old lefty pitching prospect McKenzie Mills; and the Mets, currently 13.5 games back of the Nationals in the division...
Here Come The Cubs, Ready To Murder The Brewers
Fresh off being tagged by a record-tying number of dingers Thursday against the Nationals, the Milwaukee Brewers—losers in nine of their last 11 games—return home hoping to avoid a serious ass-kicking at the hands of the red-hot Chicago Cubs, who come into town leading the division for the first tim...

Kristaps Porzingis's Workouts Have Become Slightly Less Relatable, Have Made Him Slightly More Swole
Kristaps Porzingis, despite being the centerpiece of one of the world’s most visible sports franchises and a superstar in utero, spent this summer’s gym trips looking an awful lot like what he is: a skinny-ass 21-year-old trying to put some weight on. It was comforting to see....

Yankees Produce Rare Run-Scoring Triple Play With Didi Gregorius Base-Running Goof
Todd Frazier’s first home plate appearance at Yankee Stadium was one to remember.

Gregorius, who was on second base to start the play, got...
