I don't understand this deal for #Portland. Are they close enough to winning the west for this to make sense?

Great deal for #Boston!

Brandon Woodruff completed a 60-pitch sim game today, next up is one more rehab assignment of ~80 pitches. The Brewers are still finalizing official plans, but after that start β€” knock on wood for no freak injuries this time β€” will be a return to the big league mound.

Clarification to the Carlos Rodriguez injury update: Rodriguez is currently throwing in Arizona and working his way back. There was no second opinion.

The Brewers offered a follow-up with more updated information after the manager’s pregame session.

Which Wisconsin 2026 offensive targets to watch after official visits The first wave of summer commitments have hit for the University of Wisconsin football program, but the Badgers are in waiting mode for a few key recruits.

The dead period has hit for college football, and the Badgers have seen 7 scholarship players announce commitments (plus 1 walk-on) since June 1. Here are a few other targets to keep tabs on as summer continues.

Converted Infielder Isaac Collins Might Be Baseball's Best Outfield Ball Hawk Isaac Collins doesn't know how his more seasoned teammates show such magnificent wall awareness. He also has to envy their arms. When it comes to gaining ground on the ball, though, no one is better.

Isaac Collinsβ€”mostly an infielder, before this yearβ€”is putting up the best Outfielder Jump numbers in Statcast history. How? He, literally, jumps. I’m excited about this piece @brewerfanatic.com. Hope you’ll give it a read. I think you’ll love it. brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/...

Which Packers Can Make 2nd Year Jumps?!?!
YouTube video by Pack-A-Day Podcast Which Packers Can Make 2nd Year Jumps?!?!

Around this time each year we usually look at which #Packers can make a "2nd year jump." But are 2nd year jumps even real?! On today's show I examined the entirety of Gutey's draft history to review if Packers ACTUALLY make a year 2 jump. Check it out!!!

Jacob Misiorowski's 100+ MPH Stuff Wows In Second Start Jacob Misiorowski's 100 mph fastball was impressive in his second MLB start, but his 96 mph slider may have been even better.

I had to write about what I saw tonight.

Can Brewers' Ground Attack Sustain Enough Run Production to Get Them to October? No team creates more of its offense on the ground than do the Brewers. They're zigging against an almost universal zag toward loft and seeking slug in the air. Can that work?

Horrible scene in Tampa, as Rays pitcher Hunter Bigge was hit in the face by a 105 mph foul ball while in the dugout.

He was stretchered off the field and gave a thumbs up as he exited.

In must-see moment, fan at Wrigley Field scales netting to retrieve Sal Frelick's bat β€” then gets it back A front-row fan became a momentary celebrity at Wrigley Field when he retrieved Sal Frelick's lodged bat from the stadium netting.

Really should finally just start a thread called "There's a good chance you'll see something you've never seen before at every MLB game."

MLB NEWS: There is a letter of intent for the Rays to sell to Jacksonville home builder Patrick Zapulski. One caveat: Such letters are non-binding and Rays owner Sternberg has come close but pulled out of deals in past. Sportico 1st reported advanced talks at $1.7B
