since people are talking about sports gambling today, can I implore you to read this, in which recovered gambling addicts talk about how it changed their relationship to friends, family, fandom and themselves. I've thought about these conversations so much since reporting www.cnn.com/2026/02/01/s...
From a Yankees shortstop to, yes, a Rockies pitcher, I picked MLB players I can see leveling up in 2026.

Oh this is one of those observations that’s going to stick with me for a long time

My deeper cut breakout player picks + 5 skirmishes defining the World Baseball Classic.

Ridiculously good
I'll specifically call out José Caballero as a breakout I've become convinced of. The Yankees turned him from an out-in-front hitter to a stay-back hitter, to oversimplify.
That might just really work for him. bandwagon.ghost.io/preboarding-...

Gotta admit I’m pretty ready for someone ask Bryce Harper — who sat for most of the Italy loss in favor of Paul Goldschmidt — what he thinks of DeRosa.
I can def see the chin and a little bit of the mouth but I don't think it's an exact match for me.
Ahem ... jump about the Award Candidate Express now. bandwagon.ghost.io/bandwagon-pr...
Oh that single is good.
Don't call it a breakout player list.
I'm ramping up my look ahead to the 2026 MLB season by picking players to level up into MVP / Cy Young contenders. I'm calling it Bandwagon Preboarding. Because it's always fun to be early. bandwagon.ghost.io/bandwagon-pr...
Among the players I'm all in on in 2026: Blue Jays thumper / couch surfer / funny guy Addison Barger, who has some wild bat tracking data.
More "breakout" MVP/Cy Young candidates in today's Bandwagon. 👀 bandwagon.ghost.io/bandwagon-pr...
Come for the reasoning. Stay for my annual attempt to bring a music review staple to baseball. bandwagon.ghost.io/bandwagon-pr...

Now this is the journalism I need.
If there's media you care about, it's hard to overstate how important it is that you subscribe to it. Ad rates are garbage, and the changes to search mean fewer new folks discovering sites they didn't already visit.
Honestly, maybe the team that employs noted McDonald’s stan Zack Wheeler should tell him to eat more pie.
Starting with the Netherlands and hoping I have stomach room for more.
Even though it was very mean of them to name the hot dog after Decoy Ohtani's breed.
Geopolitics aside, what hot dog are you getting
I've been thinking about the Rangers' decision to display One Riot, One Ranger, and what it says about who this team is for. So I wrote about that. It's a big ol' bummer.

It's the best airport drink right?
It is a key distinction. Was paranoid throughout that I was going to write “slider” out of habit.

Not going to be news here but the Johnny Blue Skies (Sturgill Simpson) country-funk-protest-party record he dropped on YouTube is wild (positive). youtu.be/QKHGmFvzjJ4?...
