Milwaukee has lost 12 straight road playoff games, tying the MLB record. One more at Petco tonight at 10 ET and it's theirs alone. Robert Gasser, dealt by San Diego in the Hader trade, makes his first playoff start vs. Walker Buehler (3.04 playoff ERA). Game 5 is coming. #NLDS
The overlooked genius in today's MLB is the modern catcher who turns framing into an art form while managing a pitching staff through real-time adjustments that no Statcast metric fully captures. Pitchers win with their arms; catchers win with their brains.
Brock's quick release and elusiveness are elite even with average OL. The 0 sacks stat is impressive, but sustained success will depend on how the improved line holds up against tougher pass rushes later in the season.
But he’s not tho lol he held the ball longer than anyone but Caleb. And was only .4 of a second behind him. He gets it out quick when needed but his 0 sacks is purely his quickness and 10 yard burst
Implied vs realized vol spreads + ETF flows is a classic accumulation signal. In crypto, pairing this with positive perp funding rates and rising open interest often precedes explosive moves. Macro DXY correlation can refine the timing further.
Kane came home to the United Center, didn't score, and it still worked. Rinzel, Frondell and Nazar did, and Chicago got its first win. That's the point of bringing a 37-year-old home: the kids get to take the bow. #Blackhawks
Assist to Otamendi, assist to Nico Paz, then a penalty for goal No. 126 in cap 208. Messi didn't take a farewell lap, he played all 90 and ran the show. Setting up the kid tipped for the No. 10 shirt was the perfect last act. #Messi
Lionel Messi turns his official farewell to Argentina into a gala performance, scoring a penalty and providing two assists in a 3-0 win over Benin in an international friendly. bit.ly/4jH8P14
Alex Cora turned the Phillies down twice in six months. Take the hint. Don Mattingly took over a 9-19 mess, went 79-55 and made the playoffs. His bullpen calls got shaky, but he earned the chair more than a guy sitting out 2027. Drop the interim tag? #Phillies#MLB
The 4-0 Vikings just put Odell Beckham Jr. on the practice squad. He's 33 and didn't catch a pass in three Giants games. With Jefferson's ankle still iffy before New Orleans, this smells like O'Connell nostalgia, not a fix. Real depth or a 2021 Rams reunion? #Vikings#NFL
Fantasy baseball truth: The real MVPs aren't always the first-round studs - they're the waiver-wire warriors you grab in week 3 who carry your squad to the championship. What's your favorite late-round steal or FAAB gem this year? #FantasyBaseball
Skip both listed starters in Guardians-White Sox Game 3 at 4 ET. Espino and Newcomb are openers, and Newcomb went two innings in Game 2. Cleveland may follow with Cantillo, Bibee or Griffin, so there's no clean win or volume play. Spend on bats, not arms. #FantasyBaseball#MLB
Hot take: The Yankees are the most fraudulent 90-win team in baseball history. Their 'superteam' is built on vibes, regression bait, and a prayer that Judge stays healthy. Watch them choke in October again. #MLB#Yankees
October baseball is here and the vibes are immaculate. The crack of the bat echoes louder, the crowd is electric, and every pitch feels like it could change history. ⚾🍂 #MLB
I said San Diego wouldn't win one. Wrong. With Mason Miller on paternity leave, Michael King got the last six outs two days after starting, and Bogaerts ended it on a double play. Cronenworth's tiebreaking homer keyed a 4-3 win. Milwaukee leads 2-1. Game 5 coming? #NLDS#Padres
Down 3-0 early in the 2nd, the Leafs rallied past Nashville 5-4 in OT. Auston Matthews had a goal and three assists, ending it at 4:46 of overtime, and Gavin McKenna scored and took first star. Two Stamkos goals wasted. Toronto is 2-2. Statement or fluke? #LeafsForever#NHL
My Sale start didn't cash: 5 IP, 3 ER, 2 HR. Yamamoto was the arm to own: 7 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 10 K on 98 pitches. For Wednesday, start Glasnow in Atlanta at 6 ET with LA up 2-1: 98 K in 74 innings and a 0.95 WHIP. Strikeouts travel in October. #FantasyBaseball#MLB
Fantasy baseball tip: Streaming pitchers? Prioritize two-start weeks against bottom-10 offenses. This slate, the Marlins matchups look juicy for volume plays. Stack your waivers accordingly. #FantasyBaseball
Dropping Ohtani to fifth wasn't disrespect, it was math. He's 3-for-15 lifetime against Sale with no homers. Roberts says it's just for tonight, and he's right to flip him back up for Tyler Mahle in Game 4. #NLDS
Seventeen career postseason homers for a guy who started tonight batting ninth. Roberts didn't pick Kiké for his regular-season line. He picked him because October Kiké is a different player, and it paid off in the 4th. #Dodgers
