Red Sox slugger Rafael Devers’ 2025 season is off to a historic start, but not in the way the three-time All-Star might have hoped. After going 0-for-4 with three strikeouts against the Rangers on Saturday, Devers is now 0-for-12 with 10 K’s on the year. He’s the first MLB player

TAMPA -- The best way to measure the effectiveness of the Rockies’ defense in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field is to hold starting pitcher Antonio Senzatela's stats up against Rockies and MLB history. Senzatela yielded nine hits and had no strikeouts in 4 1/3

KANSAS CITY -- José Ramírez was not in the Guardians’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Royals due to a right wrist sprain, but Cleveland appears to have avoided a worst-case scenario with its All-Star third baseman. “He passed all the tests [and the] imaging was negative,” manager

PHOENIX -- The ball left Corbin Carroll’s bat at just 46 mph -- the high fastball from Ryan Pressly having gotten in on his hands -- and the ball floated over the mound and struck the grass just shy of the dirt at shortstop. As soon as the ball hit

LOS ANGELES -- Jackson Jobe finished a Major League game before he started one, having pitched the ninth inning in his debut last September against the Rays. He pitched in two tight games last postseason as a not-so-secret weapon of the Tigers’ pitching chaos strategy. “He pitched in the playoffs

ARLINGTON -- The connection Kristian Campbell made for his first Major League homer on Saturday night at Globe Life Field was obvious both due to the loud crack of the bat and how joyous MLB Pipeline’s No. 7 prospect became as he rounded the bases. At 22 years old, less

NEW YORK – It was a rough homecoming for Nestor Cortes on Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium.

CINCINNATI -- Left fielder Austin Hays is showing improvement with his strained left calf, but the Reds will be without their cleanup hitter a little longer than the original projection. “It’s not necessarily fair to him to put a timetable, but I think the goal is when we come back

You know you’re getting older, becoming a real grown-up, when you realize you’re the same age as Major League Baseball players. Then it dawns on you that players your age are considered “grizzled veterans.” And then, eventually, there’s no one your age who is still active in MLB. Then you
