After signing a record-breaking $765 million contract to join the New York Mets, Juan Soto has thanked new teammate Brett Baty for allowing him to wear No. 22 by gifting him a brand new Chevy Tahoe. The exchange took place during Mets spring training in Port St. Lucie, as Soto handed Baty the keys to […]
Thursday occasioned the first Major League Baseball game of the 2025 season. To be sure, it was an exhibition of the spring-training variety between the Chicago Cubs and reigning-champion Los Angeles Dodgers (CHC-LAD GameTracker), but it’s still actual baseball. Most notably, that game brought us for the first time ever use of the automated ball-strike […]
Free-agent left-handed starting pitcher Andrew Heaney has agreed to a one-year deal worth $5 million with the Pittsburgh Pirates, according to ESPN’s Alden González. Heaney, 33, was 5-14 with a 4.28 ERA (92 ERA+), 1.25 WHIP and 158 strikeouts against 40 unintentional walks in 160 innings last season for the Rangers, a season worth 0.8 […]
Last year, Thanasis was one of the most vocal members of Milwaukee’s bench unit. This season, he has been just as vocal from the sideline, but he’s seated among other fans with courtside seats and not on the Bucks bench. Was Thanasis waived by Milwaukee? Here is why Giannis’ older brother is no longer in […]
The Bucks have been the best team in the 2024 NBA Cup, holding an undefeated record and the largest point differential during the group stage. Can they end their impressive tournament run with a title celebration? Milwaukee has been quite the story this season, as the Bucks are 14-11 after starting just 2-8. Giannis Antetokounmpo […]
DiVincenzo was traded very late in the offseason, and it hasn’t led to him replicating the same production with the Timberwolves that he did with the New York Knicks last season. His scoring average has dropped from 15.5 points to 8.3, his shooting percentage from 44.3% to 35.3%, and his three-point shooting percentage from 40.1% […]
There is going to be plenty of star power in this game. Both Giannis Antetokounmpo and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander should finish in the top five in MVP voting at the end of the season. Damian Lillard has been one of the best offensive guards in the league and Jalen Williams is on track to make his […]
As Bleacher Report’s Greg Swartz noted on Monday, Atlanta doesn’t need to make a blockbuster trade (and shouldn’t). One move that could be sneakily beneficial, though, is to acquire a former Boston Celtics combo guard from the Washington Wizards. “The Atlanta Hawks have played excellent basketball over the past two weeks and shouldn’t be looking […]
“An uber-expensive roster won’t bring in any high-priced talent given all of the second-apron trade restrictions, so the Boston Celtics will need to go bargain hunting instead,” Swartz said. “(Javonte) Green is an athletic, versatile wing who could fill minutes when Jayson Tatum or Jaylen Brown miss a game or need a night off.” Green […]
