Last night will go down as one of the most storied in the Seattle Mariners’ franchise history: not only did catcher Cal Raleigh add to his MVP campaign with a pair of homers to become the first catcher, switch-hitter, and Mariner to hit 60 in a single season, they also claimed their first division title […]

Cooper Kupp had one of the greatest receiver seasons ever in 2021, when he won the Triple Crown and the Offensive Player of the Year award, so although he’d since been passed in the Los Angeles Rams’ pecking order by Puka Nacua, it was somewhat of a surprise that the Rams opted to release Kupp […]

The impossible has happened in one of the most stunning collapses in baseball history. The Cleveland Guardians trailed the Detroit Tigers by 15.5 games early in July and now lead the Tigers by one game with the series finale between the teams yet to begin at 6:40 p.m. ET. If Cleveland wins, it will effectively […]

After entering the final few weeks of the regular season with a real chance at making the postseason, the Texas Rangers suffered a complete collapse, and an eight-game losing streak sealed their playoff fate on Tuesday night. The finale of their penultimate series against the Minnesota Twins is completely meaningless. But the game will be […]

In the third year of a battle for touches in the Seattle Seahawks backfield, it seems as if one player has taken a decisive edge. Kenneth Walker III has taken 39 carries this season and thrived, turning them into 163 yards and three touchdowns, while Zach Charbonnet has only gotten 27 carries for 57 yards […]

Last season, the Denver Broncos’ running back rotation arguably held them back from being more dangerous contenders. The combination of Javonte Williams and Jaleel McLaughlin was relatively ineffective, and it was hardly a surprise when the Broncos addressed the position in the second round of the NFL Draft by taking UCF running back RJ Harvey […]

For the Los Angeles Dodgers, last night was a recurring nightmare: after Shohei Ohtani pitched six sterling innings against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the bullpen gave up five runs in three innings to lose as Tanner Scott blew his 10th game of the season. Combined with the San Diego Padres’ win over the Milwaukee Brewers, Los […]

With just five games remaining, it’s now or never for both the St. Louis Cardinals and the San Francisco Giants. Both teams are 77-80 and trail the Cincinnati Reds by 3.5 games for the final NL Wild Card spot, so barring one team sweeping and several teams above them imploding, it seems like it’s more […]

Rightfully, Travis Hunter and Tetairoa McMillan attracted all the attention among the 2025 wide receiver class, with late riser Emeka Egbuka ultimately becoming the third receiver selected. The hype surrounding all three of those was fair, and all three have delivered so far, though Hunter has been better as a cornerback than a wide receiver. […]

For most of the 2025 season, the Houston Astros have held a playoff position, and for most of the last couple of months, they’ve had a greater than 90% chance of appearing in October, per FanGraphs. Now, though, the Astros’ position is precarious: they’ve been passed by the Cleveland Guardians after getting swept by the […]

Houston, we have a problem. Through the first three weeks of the season, the Houston Texans, winners of the AFC South in six of the last 10 seasons, have dropped to 0-3. Third-year quarterback C.J. Stroud has been poor, and the run game has been virtually nonexistent. DeMeco Ryans’ seat isn’t hot just yet, but […]
