With Tyler Stephenson on the paternity list for now, the Reds selected the contract of journeyman catcher Austin Wynns, who had spent the entire season thus far in Triple-A Louisville. Wynns hadn’t precisely impressed in Triple-A so far this year. In 31 games and 114 plate appearances for the Bats,...

It’s officially halfway through the season, with the majority of MLB teams having completed at least 80 out of 162 games. Most teams have established roles within their teams, however in some situations teams are pulling guys up to assume places in their lineup. These exciting shiny new toys are thrust into action (yes, even Heston Kjerstad – though it took a second call-up) to sink or swim at the MLB level. Some will earn their keep (and an inflated FAAB bid) while others will flop and flounder in their first few weeks of action and make us all wish we had spent our budgets more wisely. With several exciting call-ups this week, it’s time to sort out the noise and find the right guys for our squads.

The Toronto Blue Jays, a team whose season is on the brink, could be selling some veteran pieces in the weeks leading up to the July 30 trade deadline.

Nightengale also wrote that the Blue Jays still want to make one last run with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Each week during the season I take a look at four players you should buy high or sell low based on their current value. The general idea is to buy (when their value is) high or sell (when their value is) low. Here are some players that have my attention.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

The Pitcher Edition of the Stash List highlights the 10 best-pitching prospects likely to make an impact during the 2024 season. Prospects are often thought of as only holding value in dynasty formats. However, knowing which prospects hold value for the current season can help set you apart in redraft leagues. Several have a 2024 ETA and getting ahead of the curve on rostering these prospects is a key part of roster management. Last year we saw more pitching prospects make their debut than ever before and there is no reason we should expect to see anything change in 2024. Keep reading to find out the top ten pitchers you should stash in your redraft leagues.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – We’ve reached the final day of a long road trip, one that saw the Nationals play nine games in three cities in three time zones. They’ve gone 3-5 to this point, so a winning record is out of the question. But a victory today over the Rays at least would seal two series wins to combat the unfortunate sweep in San Diego.

When the Colorado Rockies traded Nolan Arenado in 2021, they received five players from the St. Louis Cardinals in the deal. The next-to-last piece left in the trade, first baseman/designated hitter Elehuris Montero, was designated for assignment on Sunday. This leaves starting pitcher Austin Gomber as the only player left from the deal remaining with the Rockies organization.
