As trade deadline approaches... Let's make some deals!
The MLB trade deadline is this Friday, July 30 at 4 p.m. EST. Already we’ve seen big names like All-Stars Nelson Cruz and Adam Frazier get moved to contenders within the last week. There will certainly be several more moves before the deadline. Currently, there are 18 teams either in position to mak...
What’s the Story? With Yanks it’s a tale as old as time
The Yankees’ pursuit of Rockies shortstop Trevor Story, reported by ESPN’s Buster Olney, is apparently serious enough that Mark Feinsand of MLB.com, not the throw-it-against-the-wall-to-see-if-it-sticks type, speculated Friday about the implications that acquiring the All-Star would have on New York...
Hear me out: Tony La Russa… Manager of the Year?
Tony La Russa could shockingly be A.L. Manager of the Year for playoff-bound White Sox...
The HR Derby field is set so who’s going to take the crown?
Yesterday, the bracket for the 2021 Home Run Derby at Coors Field (the field Home Run Derbies were made for) was filled out when Washington’s young superstar Juan Soto and Texas Rangers slugger Joey Gallo announced that they’d be competing in the annual slugfest....
Pete Alonso has no problems with sticky stuff, but big problems with MLB
Break out your tin foil hats, because we’re diving into the Major League Baseball conspiracy well. All the talk around baseball’s proverbial water cooler lately has been about pitchers using sticky substances to increase their grip on the baseball. However, according to 2019 NL Rookie of the Year, P...
Brandon Crawford deserves more love than he’s been getting
When the 2021 MLB All-Star Game polls opened on June 3, I filled out five ballots. I’ve voted at least once every day since. And every time, I voted for pretty much the same team with a few minor adjustments. ...
What an actually good, consistent Rockies roster should look like
The timing of it made you wonder what exactly Jeff Bridich was fired for, or encouraged to step down, as it was. Make no mistake, Bridich deserved to be shitcanned for his job, and has for a couple years now. Maybe right after the ink dried on Ian Desmond’s or Wade Davis’ contract. But he was allowe...
McDonald lifts Arizona over UConn, will face Stanford in all-PAC-12 Final
Stanford vs. Arizona will be the matchup for the women’s national title, and the Pac-12 will have its first national champion since 1992, when the Cardinal — then, as now, coached by Tara VanDerveer — won its second title....
NL West Preview: The Rise of San Diego, the reign of L.A.
With Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado, the Padres have the best left side of the infield in baseball and two MVP candidates to lead their lineup....
Trevor Story Hit The Ball A Quarter-Mile
The NL West is good as hell right now. The Rockies won 5-3 and swept the Giants and are now 1.5 games up on the Dodgers and two on the D-Backs. But you’re not here for that divisional intrigue, are you? That’s not what you were promised, and that’s not why you clicked. You, my like-minded friend, ar...
Gerardo Parra Nabs Jay Bruce With A Laserbeam From The Wall
Gerardo Parra’s reputation as a defensive wizard might be a bit out ahead of his actual production since his historic 2013 season, but man, the Rockies outfielder’s still got plenty of highlights in him. Look at this throw, which wasn’t even perfectly on line but still got Bruce out at third fair an...
Noble Strongman Trevor Story Undone By His Own Dumb Stadium
The Colorado Rockies will try anything to not suck. They paid Mike Hampton something like a billion dollars, stuck their baseballs in a dang humidor, and even appealed to Jesus Christ. This year, they decided to try something new, and made the right-field fence about twice as high as it used to be. ...
Trevor Story Is Young And Strong And Keeps Hitting Dingers
The Rockies don’t have Troy Tulowitzki anymore. They do have Trevor Story, a 23-year-old rookie shortstop who just became the first player in MLB history to hit a homer in each his first three career games. He went deep twice in his first game, making him the only player in history to mash four tate...
