MIAMI, Fla. - The Tampa Bay Rays have owned the''Citrus Series'' for years, and this year is no different. The Rays are 3-0 so far this year against the Miami Marlins, and they'll go for the sweep in Wednesday night.

The Major League Baseball season was shortened to 60 games from 162 in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but it still felt like an eternity for the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates started 4-17 under first-year manager Derek Shelton and finished with the worst record in the major leagues at 19-41. That extrapolates to 51-111 in a normal year.…

Thankfully, we have baseball. No more wait, no more uncertainty. This Thursday the Pittsburgh Pirates will be in Missouri taking on the St. Louis Cardinals and the world will be a better place for it. As that day approaches there will be plenty of predictions to go around, so I've decided to share some of my own. Though the Pittsburgh Pirates are…

While the Pittsburgh Pirates were not super active last offseason, one position that saw multiple roster moves be made was catcher. After trading away Gold Glove Award winner Jacob Stallings, the Bucs would then dive into free agency to address the catcher position. This led to the Pittsburgh Pirates signing veteran Roberto Pérez to a one-year deal…

With Opening Day right around the corner, it's important to get ahead of as many predictions as possible. At least, it's more fun that way. Think about it like this: Just a few weeks ago, we weren't sure when we might watch Major League Baseball again. Here we are after every major free-agent signing and plenty of marquee trades, with a decent look…

When you look at the Pittsburgh Pirates you're probably not thinking the best of teams. They finished with 101 losses last year, making them the 4th worst team in 2021. But there is light on the horizon. Many predict that in 2023, we could see a team that could conceivably compete for a Wild Card spot. But could we see that come to fruition a year…

Few positions in baseball are more important for catcher. From Russell Martin to Francisco Cervelli, to Jacob Stallings and then Roberto Pérez to begin this season, the Pittsburgh Pirates have been spoiled with their catching situation for the better part of a decade. However, once Pérez was lost for the season to a hamstring injury that all…

LAS VEGAS - Perhaps the biggest question facing the Blue Jays this off-season is whether they'll trade from their enviable catching depth to address other needs. Thanks to Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk and Gabriel Moreno, Blue Jays catchers generated an MLB-best 7.3 WAR in 2022. They combined to lead MLB in batting average (.273) and on-base…

We have no idea when, and based on what has been made public essentially no progress has been achieved, but eventually this lockout will end and baseball will resume. When that happens, we can expect a frenzy of activity as teams try to get their rosters set for camp and then the regular season. For the Boston Red Sox, they did a fair amount of…
