Barry Bonds Still Belongs In The Hall Of Fame

In the past few weeks, there have been discussions about the New York Yankees trading for an outfielder to help supplement the deficiencies produced by Joey Gallo and Aaron Hicks. Both have struggled considerably on offense this season, with Gallo hitting .165 and Hicks recording a .209 average. Gallo also...

The 14-30 Cincinnati Reds are hosting the 24-19 San Francisco Giants for a Memorial Day weekend series at Great American Ball Park, but multiple headlines were made before the game's first pitch. Per The Associated Press (h/t ESPN), Reds outfielder Tommy Pham and Giants outfielder Joc Pederson were involved in...

A couple of weeks ago, I talked about a former Braves top prospect that fell out of favor with the organization, was traded, played in several different countries, and eventually made it back to the majors five years later. His name was Christian Bethancourt, who is now a member of the Athletics. That’s a name I never thought I would hear again when talking about Major League Baseball, and it’s what makes this game so amazing. There are stories like this in every organization, and I’ve found another involving another former top prospect for the Braves.

The New York Yankees were absolutely slaughtered this past week dealing with injuries. They lost several pitching contributors, notably Luis Gil and Chad Green, to Tommy John surgery. Jonathan Loaisiga and Aroldis Chapman were both placed on the injured list following shoulder discomfort and Achilles tendinitis. However, the outfield was...

After losing several bullpen pieces this past week, the New York Yankees needed to hit the free-agent market to pick up a few depth pieces. The Bombers signed former St. Louis Cardinals All-Star Matt Carpenter to supplement infield deficiencies. On Thursday, Carpenter made his first appearance against the Tampa Bay Rays, driving in a run after being hit by a pitch.

The fifth spot in the rotation has been a mess for the Braves so far this season, but there are a couple of reasons to believe that it will be just fine. First and foremost is Spencer Strider, who is more than deserving of a chance to start after the way he’s performed so far that season. However, down the road, another player could take over the role — former NL Cy Young candidate Mike Soroka.

Like many MLB teams, the Dodgers are all about bobblehead nights. Every season, the Dodgers roll out a promotional schedule chock full of bobblehead nights to help get fans in the seats for midweek games. Why? Because it works. Fans love filling up Chavez Ravine to get their hands on a new bobblehead.

The Baltimore Orioles haven’t been a complete trainwreck this year, as many of us expected them to be. However, they haven’t exactly been a good team either. The past couple of years have been rough ones in the Beltway area. It’s been since 2016 that they’ve made it...

Former St. Louis Cardinals star infielder Matt Carpenter is joining the New York Yankees on a Major League contract, the team announced Thursday afternoon. Carpenter, 36, made his MLB debut with the Cardinals in 2011 and spent 11 seasons with the team. He became a free agent for the first time in 2022 when St. Louis declined to pick up the option on his contract.

Tommy Pham did not play in Friday night’s game between his Cincinnati Reds and the San Francisco Giants after slapping one of his opponents. Pham got into an altercation with Joc Pederson during batting practice and slapped the Giants outfielder, according to reports. That may be crazy enough, but what’s even crazier is the reported reason for the altercation.

A former All-Star pitcher is facing a more difficult road back to an MLB roster. Carlos Martinez has been suspended 80 games by MLB, the league announced Friday. Martinez was suspended because he tested positive for the banned substance Ibutamoren. Martinez, 30, pitched for the St. Louis Cardinals from 2013...
