The Yankees expected a great start from Cam Schlittler. They really did not get one. If they do not get strong starts from their starting pitchers, they will struggle to score runs. In this game, in the fifth inning, Randal Grichuk grounded out to Richie Palacios. He made a great play, which summarized the Yanks’…
The baseball world lost a giant on April 11, 2026, when Phil Garner passed away at the age of 76 after a courageous two-year battle with pancreatic cancer. He wasn’t just a player or a manager; he was the heartbeat of every dugout he stepped into. Garner didn’t just play the game. He wrestled with…
The Yankees are terrible offensively. It is a wonder how a team that led MLB last year in runs scored could be so offensively anemic. They need to get great starts from their starting pitchers. They got one in this game as ace Max Fried pitched well, and the Yankees still lost this game 5-4…
Baltimore Orioles Shortstop Gunnar Henderson has been one of the best hitters in the league so far this season and one of the most consistent RBI producers in the early MLB season, thus far, as he has knocked in 11 RBIs so far this season. He has also tied for the most home runs right…
The pressure of taking the mound against the Philadelphia Phillies in front of a raucous Saturday afternoon crowd is enough to make any starting pitcher sweat.

Instead of relying strictly…
The Yankees had not scored a run in 17 innings heading into this game. They broke that streak early, but lost this game 5-3. This game was played at Tropicana Field. It has been rebuilt after being destroyed by Hurricane Milton. The Rays did not play there last season; they played at the Yankees’ spring…
Arizona Diamondbacks Starting Pitcher Michael Soroka came to the “City of Brotherly Love” in great form. What he got was a rude awakening in Philadelphia at Citizens Bank Park. The bottom of the 1st inning went about as poorly as it could have. He surrendered four earned runs in the frame. Bryce Harper notched an…
The San Diego Padres possess the most electric weapon in baseball. Since arriving in Southern California last summer, closer Mason Miller has redefined sheer dominance on the mound. He enters the 2026 season not just picking up where he left off, but elevating his game to truly historic heights. Following a spectacular finish to 2025…
On Tuesday night, the Los Angeles Angels played the Atlanta Braves. That is probably not news to most Angels fans, but something unexpected went down that night. It appears that some of the players forgot it was a baseball game and started boxing. Just kidding. Kind of. The Escalation So what should have been an…
The Yankees split the first two games of the home series with the Athletics. They were hoping for a win but did not get it. Ryan Weathers was the starting pitcher for them. He had two previous starts for the Yankees before this one. Neither of them was good, though he did strike out 7…
