As a fan of the Chicago Cubs, I never really had the opportunity to enjoy the wonder and the splendor of former Red Sox/Yankees OF Johnny Damon. He was a symbol of the AL East for quite some time back in the day, as he helped the 2004 Boston Red Sox and the 2009 New… read more

The Chicago Cubs’ offense has been a bit of a travesty over the past number of months. Hell, the entire team has been a shell of what it once was; going 5-5 in their last 10, and 10-10 in their last 20. This mediocre stretch has done a number on this team’s place in the… read more

Tanner Bibee walked to the mound in the bottom of the first inning with a 5-0 lead. That’s usually a recipe for success, and the Cleveland Guardians cruised to a 9-5 win over the Chicago White Sox last night at Rate Field. The Guardians have won four straight games. Bibee stuck around until the sixth… read more

Before the game, Texas activated 1st baseman Jake Burger from the 10-day IL, where he spent time with a left quad strain. To make room for Burger, Alejandro Osuna was optioned… read more

The Colorado Rockies are expected to call up their No. 5 prospect, third baseman Kyle Karros, from Triple-A Albuquerque to make his Major League debut on Friday night against the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to a report from MLB.com’s Thomas Harding. Drafted in the fifth round from UCLA in 2023, Karros, 23, is the son of… read more

Chase Burns 7+ Strikeouts and Reds Win (+126) There is a recipe here. Two not so great offenses, but the pitching does lean into the Reds’ favor. Burns is a strikeout menace and the Pirates are a strikeout machine of a team. The Reds winning should be doable, but Keller is still a solid threat… read more
