NEWBURY: The moon and back

The comparison isn't nearly as far-fetched as it may seem at first blush. In many ways, though, the Texas Rangers' unlikely mastery of the 2023 baseball World Series resembles the Apollo 11 Space Mission. Huh?

Garrett Stubbs bat-spiked and DJ’d his way to fan favorite status in 2022. He’s ready for ‘new memories’ in 2023

With Kyle Schwarber - the June version, no less - on deck, Stubbs' goal was to simply extend the game. Technically, he failed. And thus, the bat spike was born. "It was an original move right when I did it, and it was fun and a genuine reaction of just as much excitement as possible," Stubbs said, a few minutes after hitting a single while wearing…

Chicago Cubs Add Another Power Threat By Signing Trey Mancini

They don't want to be "lovable losers" anymore. The Chicago Cubs, who ended a 108-year world championship drought in 2016, continue to stockpile sluggers who could spur a quick return to the playoffs. The Cubs have missed post-season play two years in a row and have not won a pennant in seven years. The latest to sign on is Trey Mancini, a cancer…

Trey Mancini has had colon cancer, left a city in which his connection to the fanbase was undeniable, headed south to Houston and won a World Series, so it is safe to say the free-agency process and a potential move north to Wrigley Field and the Chicago Cubs will not rattle the outfielder. The report on the veteran is just one at the forefront of…

Cubs going all-in on Matt Mervis would be wildly irresponsible

The Cubs definitely have a hole to fill at the first base position, but relying solely on Matt Mervis would not be an intelligent baseball decision. There are multiple first base free agents the team can sign that would make an impact in the lineup - including José Abreu, Josh Bell and Trey Mancini. Before going into that, let's take a look at Matt…
