Traded for a CF who hits lefties well.

Facing a lefty, not in the lineup.

What are we doing here, people?

The Mets trailed for most of the night, but they kept chipping away and wound up with a walk-off win in the tenth inning of their series opener in Queens.

This should be the biggest story in baseball. The Red Sox have a long and disturbing history of cheating. Smh. When will Manfred step in and put a stop to this?
Angels reportedly accused Red Sox of stealing signs, leading to pregame shouting match Wednesday
Before the Red Sox and Angels had a chance to close out their three-game series at Fenway Park on Wednesday, the two teams got into a heated pre-game argument on the field.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.

Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Even if ESPN were to fire Pat McAfee it's not good enough. McAfee's track record of toxicity and lies, any of which could've and should've been a fireable offense, is well known to ESPN but it has never given a shit. Everything McAfee does should be imputed to the network as well.

Are you a baseball fan? Then you need to be aware of what Passan is talking about and how egregious it is. The Dept of Defense is trying to erase Jackie Robinson’s military service.

#WomensHistoryMonth salute to baseball exec Kim Ng, who in 2021 became the first female GM in Major League Baseball history. Won 84 games her final season leading the Marlins. Team plummeted to 62 wins without her. That’s 22 wins above replacement if you’re keeping score at home.

#MetsSky For those considering scenarios where Baty and Acuña both make the team on opening day, here's one. (Yes, there's still ample recovery time for Nimmo)
