• The Brewers are rolling the dice in the infield

Dave Kallmann / Milwaukee Journal Sentinel / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Is someone going to step up? When Paul DeJong and Brendan Rodgers signed deals this week, all illusions that the Brewers would bring in a free agent to shore up their infield ended. Barring a trade—which seems unlikely—the Brewers will very likely enter the season with one of Oliver Dunn, Andruw Monasterio, or ...2025

• Preseason Draft Prep - February 20, 2025
Mariners Starting Rotation The Mariners' starting rotation is fascinating.

In fact, every other Seattle starter is 27 years old or younger. The youth-infused rotation is buoyed by a pitcher-friendly ballpark an...2025

He was a lefty with the heart of a lion. My father used to regale me with stories about old baseball players and teams. I suppose that’s the reason I’m more interested in the old times than the modern game.
