MLB playoffs 2021: How the Boston Red Sox overcame a COVID outbreak and made it to the ALCS

“Alex never took me out,” Xander Bogaerts told ESPN in an interview last week. Bogaerts knew something was wrong. And with a COVID outbreak sweeping through the team’s clubhouse, it didn’t take long to figure out what it was. “I knew immediately,” he said. “‘F—, I got COVID.’” The loss of Bogaerts dealt a big […]

After ‘a good ride,’ Toronto Blue Jays close out stint in Buffalo with loss, eye return to Rogers Centre

After not hosting a Major League Baseball game since its days as a Federal League outpost in 1915, Buffalo made the most of its opportunity, hosting the Toronto Blue Jays over two seasons because of coronavirus concerns.

June MLB delivers D.C. thunder, a mysterious Arizona phone number and a walk-off triple play in Bronx

There was no June swoon for weird, wacky and wonderful in baseball. The greatest game provided another load of strikeouts, including immaculate ones, home runs and unusual name connections, led by a threesome of Santanas on one play, and Griffin Jax and Skye Bolt in one week.

Fast forward two months and New York is looking up in the standings at three teams — the Toronto Blue Jays, Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays. The Yankees’ […]

Fantasy baseball daily notes: Pitcher and hitter rankings for Monday

Stacking isn’t generally used in traditional fantasy, save for desperate situations in head-to-head formats when you’re behind and need to make up points in bunches.

Elsewhere, Corbin Burnes hopes to snake his elusive third, as the Brewers host the Diamondbacks, while Trevor Bauer seeks his seventh win when the Dodgers visit the Braves. Good luck securing the win in head-to-head formats. Those playing in rotisserie leagues take heed: There are only three games on Monday, so use Sunday to pad […]
