• MLB Playoffs: American League Preview

Even in a relative down season, the Astros might very well extend their ALCS streak. Will any American League team make like the Rangers and topple them? During the decade-plus of MLB play from 2005-16, only two American League teams won at least 100 games. Outside of the 2008 Angels and 2009 Yankees, it was always a scramble of several good teams, but no true slam-dunk standouts (and even the ‘08...2024

• Interesting Prospect Call-Ups - April 17, 2024
Andy Pages The Dodgers promoted their number three prospect on Tuesday. Pages has a very strong offensive resume. The 23 year old is slashing .371/.452/.694 in 15 AAA games, and while the ballpark environment he was playing in is super hitter friendly, it's an impressive statline nonetheless. His 18/11 K/BB% is really solid, but we obviously expect those numbers to take hits on both sides of the r...2024
