ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - The Los Angeles Angels played three miserable months without getting on the type of roll they've hit over the past week. The surge is probably too late to save the Halos' season, but any chance to shine means the world to Tucker Davidson and the other Angels playing for their futures. Davidson pitched six innings of four-hit…

Now that the 2022 MLB trade deadline has passed, it's worthwhile to check back in on the updated World Series odds.

After four straight years at the bottom of the National League Central, the Reds moved up to fourth in 2019, 16 games behind St. Louis and 14 games out of postseason contention.

Wednesday was an offday for American League Division Series action, so we only had the National League to watch. Both NLDS games at least made for compelling TV, and even better, both guaranteed at least one more playoff game in each series. The Dodgers and Phillies each had a chance to move up 2-0, but instead, the two NLDS sets are knotted up as…

ANAHEIM - When the MLB trade deadline passed and Shohei Ohtani remained in the Angels' clubhouse, it signaled that the club has no intention of rebuilding in 2023.

The Reds, last in the NL Central every year from 2015 to 2018, began pushing their chips to the middle of the table with the trade deadline acquisition of Trevor Bauer in 2019.

Since Trout entered the league in 2011, the Angels have made the playoffs only one time (2014) and have finished in the bottom half of their division eight times. Trout has performed exceptionally well on an individual standpoint, being named an All-Star nine times and…

The Atlanta Braves got so many contributions from a variety of sources. Dansby Swanson, Austin Riley, and Travis d'Arnaud put up some of the best numbers of their careers so far. William Contreras was the designated hitter in the NL All-Star despite not being the team's regular designated hitter. Kyle Wright and Max Fried were great all year long…

It's a doom and gloom forecast, but let's assume the Atlanta Braves will watch all eight of their free-agents-to-be move on. They'll waive goodbye to Dansby Swanson, Kenley Jansen and Adam Duvall. Robbie Grossman will sign elsewhere, Luke Jackson too, along with Jesse Chavez - actually, we'll see you back in a Braves uniform after next season's…

After acquiring outfielder Juan Soto (.274 AVG, 20 HRs, 59 RBIs) and first baseman Josh Bell (.301 AVG, 14 HRs, 57 RBIs) from the Nationals, FanDuel slashed the Padres' World Series odds from around+2200 down…

Just one season ago, the Atlanta Braves proved how important a team's bullpen can be in today's MLB during their World Series run. Postseason games can be won or lost by arms coming out of the back-end of the'pen and this year 11 of the 12 teams playing for the title finished the regular season with the top-14 bullpens by ERA. While some starters…
