If you’ve watched even a second of a Mets game so far, you know that there aren’t many teams -- or many teams' fans -- having more fun than the Mets right now. (Sunday afternoon’s implosion against the Nationals obviously excepted!) Their spot atop the NL East is their ultimate

SAN FRANCISCO -- Bob Melvin has managed in the Majors for 22 seasons. He’s never seen an ending quite like the one that unfolded on Sunday afternoon at Oracle Park. For the second straight day, the Giants came back to beat the Rangers in the bottom of the ninth inning,

The season is a month old, and the National League West, as expected, is proving to be the most competitive division in baseball. A roundtable of NL West beat reporters gathered to examine where things stand as we inch toward May: Four teams in the NL West are above .500,

LOS ANGELES -- For the second straight outing, Tyler Glasnow was removed from his start early due to an injury. After allowing back-to-back homers in the first inning of Sunday's series-clinching 9-2 victory over the Pirates, Glasnow returned to the mound to make his warmup throws in the second but

NEW YORK -- Happy Birthday, Aaron Judge!

CLEVELAND -- A strong weekend from Jarren Duran ended on a sour note in Cleveland on Sunday when he was involved in an incident with a fan in the middle of the seventh inning of Boston’s 13-3 win. It occurred after the top of the inning, when the Red Sox

WASHINGTON -- Down six runs early, the Nationals rallied in dramatic fashion to stun the first-place Mets for an 8-7 victory on Sunday at Nationals Park after a Pete Alonso throwing error at first base. Luis García Jr.’s grounder to first was backhanded by Alonso, but his throw to Ryne

Could the AL East have five teams finish .500 or better? Is the NL East a two-way tussle between the Mets and Phillies or will the Braves find a way to make it a three-legged race? And in the NL West, the Dodgers are the favorites to win the division,

NEW YORK -- Right-hander Devin Williams is out as the Yankees’ closer -- for now. The job belongs to Luke Weaver, who had the role during the final two months of last year, including the postseason. The decision to remove Williams as the ninth-inning guy came two days after Williams

DETROIT -- Most No. 1 starters will use every chance in Spring Training to stay close to their home camp. That goes especially in Florida, where traffic on the highways can be unpredictable, doubly so around Lakeland. Which is why Tarik Skubal’s decision to hit the road for Sarasota and

The Dodgers have pretty much had the National League West on lock for over a decade, with 11 division titles since 2013. The AL Central has been dominated by Cleveland and Minnesota, the NL East by the Phillies and Braves, and the NL Central by the Brewers and Cardinals. Now

Over the first month of the 2025 season, we’ve seen an interesting trend in the home run rankings. Reigning American League MVP and MLB home run champion Aaron Judge is off to a sensational start at the plate, hitting over .400 with seven homers on the young campaign. Other prominent

SEATTLE -- Agustín Ramírez had enough slumping after just one game. The Marlins’ No. 4 prospect, whose big league career got off to the kind of start not seen in at least 125 years, had his first off night at the plate Saturday, going 0-for-4 in Miami’s ugly 14-0 loss

PHOENIX -- You can never have enough pitching, especially when playing at Coors Field. So, as the Braves prepare to begin a three-game series in Denver on Monday, they’ll reintroduce themselves to Ian Anderson a little more than a month after choosing to trade him to the Angels instead of

PHOENIX -- Eugenio Suárez had a lot to smile about this weekend. But when the third baseman -- who, on Saturday, became just the 19th player in MLB history to record a four-homer game -- saw reporters sauntering toward Corbin Carroll’s locker after the D-backs' 6-4 victory in Sunday’s series

KANSAS CITY -- The stars were out for the Astros on Sunday. With right-hander Hunter Brown continuing his masterful pitching and designated hitter Yordan Alvarez finding his vaunted stroke with a majestic three-run homer, it was a day of celebration for Houston all the way around.

NEW YORK – Patience is the key to success when one is in the batter’s box. In the first game of Sunday’s doubleheader at Yankee Stadium, the Yankees made it a grind for right-hander Kevin Gausman in an 11-2 victory over the Blue Jays. During the first two innings, Gausman

PHOENIX -- A homestand that opened with six solid innings of one-run ball from Brandon Pfaadt to secure a win ended in similar fashion. It was the days in between that got wild, historic and well, just plain extra.

SAN DIEGO -- The Rays needed that one. They needed the last two, really. After going 5-8 in their most recent homestand against the Angels, Braves, Red Sox and Yankees, the Rays found a way to turn it around on their NL West road trip, notching back-to-back series wins against

SEATTLE -- Maybe it’s a good thing that Logan Evans was invited to T-Mobile Park to soak in the jitters of his MLB debut one day early, because when he finally took the mound on Sunday, the promising right-hander looked cool, calm and collected.

MINNEAPOLIS -- As baseball has evolved in recent years, extreme velocity has become one of the defining traits of the era. That doesn’t mean it’s the only way to succeed. One of the best fastballs in baseball clocked in at about 94 mph on Sunday, and it belongs to Joe

SAN DIEGO -- As Fernando Tatis Jr. makes his early MVP case, he seems to be doing something spectacular on a nightly basis. One night it’s with his bat. The next night it’s with his legs. On Sunday afternoon, it was his cannon of a right arm.

Every MLB season is a marathon of ebbs and flows, peaks and valleys. Through it all, players and teams just hope to find some positive consistency. Hot starts, as promising as they seem, often fade after a couple of weeks as the season hits its stride. But when a player

CHICAGO -- Aaron Nola has been a steady, reliable presence in the Phillies’ rotation for the majority of his big league career. With the 31-year-old right-hander’s durability -- only two injured list stints since the start of 2017 -- and reliability over nearly the last decade, he’d earned his status
