13+ min ago (486+ words) The Toronto Blue Jays have gotten bad news in their pursuit of Kyle Tucker. Toronto has been after Tucker, who's the top free agent available. Several teams are after Tucker, but the star slugger did visit the Blue Jays' spring training facility, which was a good sign. However, ESPN MLB insider Alden Gonzalez believes the Blue Jays may not get Tucker, as too many teams are after him and could drive up the price. "The Blue Jays ultimately might not land Tucker," Gonzalez wrote in a piece published on Friday. "The Dodgers " in search of an outfielder and also interested in Tucker, though only on a short-term deal " might not get Skubal. But their presence is stark at a time when so many big-market owners seem unwilling to spend." If Toronto doesn't land Tucker, the team would likely go all-in…...

Kent's Baseball Hall of Fame Election Was Unexpected by Former Mets Teammate When Jeff Kent was traded to the New York Mets in 1992, teammate Howard Johnson didn't figure him to be a future Hall of Famer.

28+ min ago (377+ words) The Detroit Tigers have been involved in several big rumors to begin the offseason, and it's clear they could look like a completely different team when they return to the field in 2026. Perhaps the most important rumors are revolving around superstar pitcher Tarik Skubal, who has emerged as a trade candidate ahead of his contract expiring next offseason. Whether or not Skubal gets traded will likely determine how the offseason is judged for Detroit. Other players could end up being on the move as well, and that's been the case for one of the team's former first-round picks, Matt Manning, as he is headed overseas in an attempt to revive his baseball career. Manning was selected by the Tigers with the No. 9 overall pick in the 2016 MLB Draft, and the team was hopeful that the tall right-handed hurler could eventually…...

From those many teams there are five local athletes that managed top seeds throughout the 14 weight classes. Starting things off at the lowest weight class is a returning champion, Randolph's Kamren Anderson, who won at 101 pounds last year and is the top seed at 103 today. After finishing in second place at 108 pounds last year, Southwestern's Adrian Torres returns as the top seed today at 110 pounds with Eden's Mason DellaPenta the No. 2 and Randolph's Tanner Patterson the No. 7.

36+ min ago (483+ words) Dec 12, 2025 | 10:18 AM EST But so far, the results haven't matched the talk. The team still hasn't landed Alex Bregman, and another big target, Pete Alonso, ended up signing with the Orioles. Now, that is enough for Red Sox podcaster Terry Cushman Jr. to suggest this might be Breslow's last run with the team. " Terry Cushman Jr. (@cushmanMLB) December 11, 2025 Cushman is certain that Breslow is on his last leg with the Red Sox and that owner John Henry would be forced to leave past him. But why is Breslow catching so much heat? Well, if you remember, last offseason actually went pretty well for the Red Sox. Breslow added Justin Wilson, who became a steady arm in the bullpen. Then, Aroldis Chapman turned in a dominant All-Star year as the closer. He also pulled off a trade for Garrett Crochet, who…...

43+ min ago (308+ words) The Chicago Cubs stunned the baseball world by acquiring superstar outfielder Kyle Tucker in a trade last winter, though they came up short on another one of their significant targets. The team had courted veteran third baseman Alex Bregman before he ultimately chose a contract offer from the Boston Red Sox. But with Bregman opting out of that contract and returning to free agency again this winter, the Cubs could be after him once again. Without Bregman in the fold this past season, the team promoted top prospect Matt Shaw to manage the hot corner and he had a solid rookie campaign. But if they are able to add Bregman this winter, Shaw could shift to a new position or return to the minors for some additional development. And it seems pretty clear that Bregman would be an offensive upgrade…...

48+ min ago (238+ words) President Donald Trump will honor the legendary "Miracle on Ice" U.S. men's hockey team, which defeated the Soviet Union in the 1980 Winter Olympics, on Friday. At least ten other players are expected to attend the ceremony, including defenseman Jack O'Callahan, backup goalie Steve Janaszak, and forward Rob McClanahan. The game between Team USA and the Soviets in Lake Placid, New York, wasn't just about hockey. This was the height of the Cold War, and the victory was also a symbol of our triumph over communism. These were days when Olympic teams weren't made up of professional NHL stars. We had a bunch of college kids and amateurs, many of whom went on to have normal careers outside the sport.

52+ min ago (828+ words) Toronto GM Ross Atkins made a big splash early signing Dylan Cease, but still appears to have holes to fill in team's lineup. When the Blue Jays snagged Dylan Cease as baseball's first major signing of the off-season, it set the stage for the rest of general manager Ross Atkins' winter work. So, if now we must wait for the next major move from the American League champs, it's part of the unpredictable script of the baseball's long, dragging months between the end of the World Series and the start of spring training. As the MLB world resets following this week's Winter Meetings in Orlando, the Jays are far from done in exploring ways to further improve. How much they get done, however, remains to be seen. After spending at the top end with the $210 million US given to Cease,…...

55+ min ago (880+ words) Of course, the Red Sox weren't going to sign Pete Alonso. Obviously, they weren't going to bring back Kyle Schwarber. The Red Sox don't operate that way anymore and haven't for a while. Anyone surprised or disappointed when the Red Sox didn't come home from the Winter Meetings with a stud free agent simply hasn't been paying attention. They've been trotting out similar versions of the same script for years now. The time is long overdue to reset some expectations. When reports come out that the Red Sox "are interested" or "in on" a primary free agent, that used to mean that there was a pretty good chance that when the auctioneer yelled "Sold!" Boston would have made the highest bid. In the 2020s, the Red Sox are making offers. But it's always for fewer years and less money than serious…...
