Well, Angels fans. I guess there is some hope after all. MLB.com writer Will Leitch decided to have some fun, and predict who would win the next 10 World Series. And, what was probably a surprise to many, the Angels did in fact make the list. Not even just as a World Series participant, but as a winner. And the best news of all, it's before Mike…

The MLB Hot Stove's recent days have brought us both the feel-good and feel-bad stories of this offseason. The feel-bad story, of course, involves the possibility of Trevor Bauer being signed by some desperate team, so let's forget that and consider for a moment Andrew McCutchen "returning home" to the Pittsburgh Pirates. As Kevin Henry notes,…

The New York Mets travel to Citizens Bank for the second time this season as they take on the Philadelphia Phillies with a four-game series that continues Sunday.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Carlos Baerga always had time for reporters when he played for the Indians. Now he's become one. Baerga, who spent 14 years in the big leagues, hosts a popular podcast in Puerto Rico called "I Love Sports with Carlos Baerga and Friends." During the winter meetings in December, Baerga was first with the news that Cy Young winner…

LOS ANGELES - Both the Yankees and Mets will look into a trade for suddenly available superstar Juan Soto, sources tell The Post.

In stretching out Trea Turner's $300 million contract over 11 years, the Phillies diluted the average annual salary for luxury-tax purposes and payroll flexibility. It's the approach they took four years ago in signing Bryce Harper. The length of Turner's deal, like Harper's 13-year pact, was predicated on economics, not baseball. But the Phillies…

We are less than two weeks into the 2023 calendar year, but we've got bold predictions of a litany of things that will go down in Major League Baseball over the course of the next 11.5 months.

Garrett Stubbs was an unlikely hero. At 5-foot-10, 170 pounds, he doesn't look like a ballplayer, and is constantly reminded of that by spectators who call him a Little Leaguer and a bat boy and a clubhouse attendant. He says he hears this just about every time he's on the field but has gotten used to it by now. He's always been undersized, but he…

On Monday, the Phillies completed a trade with the Giants to acquire Yunior Marte. The addition of Marte to the Phillies bullpen brought yet another fireballer to the team. Marte averages 97.7 MPH on his 4-seamer and peaked at 99 MPH in 2022. He joins a laundry list of hard-throwing relievers on the Phillies. Between the Phillies' 10 top relieving…

MLB.com writer Will Leitch used his crystal ball to predict the next ten World Series champions. It's a very strange list comprised of ten different World Series winners. It's a list that could bring some laughs and tears of joy to Los Angeles Angels fans. In 2023 he has the Dodgers somehow winning the World Series defeating the Blue Jays. The same…

For all the talk about how division races supposedly don't matter as much as they used to -- and I can think of a couple No. 1 and No. 2 seeds who would very much disagree with you -- it still means something to be able to call yourself a champion. I guarantee you there are Guardians fans who have 2022 AL Central champs shirts. It might not be the…

The trend of dominant pitching and well-rounded teams in MLB continued this year as the NL East went on a great run with the Phillies, Mets, and Braves all making a long streak at the end of the season. With Sandy Alcantara pitching at the rate that he was, and Max Fried and Kyle Wright both most likely making their individual Cy Young pushes this…

On its own, the Toronto Blue Jays signing a 34-year-old infielder to a one-year deal is not the kind of thing that will cause fans to wonder what brand of ski googles the players will wear in their Champagne-soaked clubhouse. Brandon Belt? Nice hitter, when healthy. Strong beard. Excellent name with many headline-pun possibilities. But also a guy…

The San Francisco Giants (27-22) will visit the Miami Marlins (20-28), Thursday at 6:40 PM ET, in the first game of a four-game series.

It isn't a secret. Not after more than three decades of building major-league rosters. When it comes to pitching, Dave Dombrowski has a type. "I've always believed in power arms," he said two years ago after getting hired to head up the Phillies' baseball operations. "That's something I grew up with in the White Sox organization. We had a lot of…

We're still over a month away from pitchers and catchers reporting to camp in Florida and Arizona, but it's not much more than that.

The Philadelphia Phillies are one win away from the World Series. They will try to win the pennant in front of their home fans on Sunday in NLCS Game 5 against the San Diego Padres. The Padres are unlikely to go without a fight, however. They've already knocked two 100-win teams from the playoffs and have shown resilience throughout their run. Just…

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The Guardians still need a catcher. Manager Terry Francona said patience is required and that executives Chris Antonetti and Mike Chernoff will deliver a backstop. That is a good thing because as Casey Stengel said a long time ago, "If you don't have a catcher, you're going to have a lot of passed balls." The winter meetings…

You'll be hard pressed to find a more lopsided matchup than the Nationals (36-73, 19-33 away) and Phillies (59-48, 29-25 home) has been over the past year. Philadelphia has taken 17 of the past 19 games versus its NL East rival, including nine of 11 this year. Pennsylvania sportsbooks expect that trend to continue on Sunday, as the two close out a…

Most Philly sports fans were probably watching the 76ers or the Phillies on Monday night. Only the diehards were viewing the Philadelphia Flyers, whose season lost its meaning months ago. Here's what most of you missed: The Flyers' attempt at their second three-game winning streak of the season fell short at the United Center. They allowed two…

The Phillies will head to San Diego to finish their long road trip. The Phillies have gone 4-3 on the trip but are coming into play on a three game losing streak.

SAN DIEGO -- "What does it mean?" That is a question the Giants asked themselves over and over again for the last month, through endless rumors, eye-popping quotes in a magazine article, a misspelled and misinformed tweet, and a 13-second video that rocked the baseball world a few days before Thanksgiving. For months, the Giants had prepared to…

SAN DIEGO - Here's one thing that is not a secret: The Tigers, for way too long, struggled in the realm of player development. They did not produce enough international hitters. They did not find and develop international talent. When their rebuild began around 2017, the farm system was largely barren. And as has been well-documented, the Tigers…

On January 24th, the Baseball Writers' Association of America will unveil what players they've chosen for Cooperstown.
