The Boston Red Sox have a ton of depth defensively, but not necessarily at first base. The Red Sox are expecting a powerful season at the plate from their 25-year-old stud first baseman Triston Casas, but in the unfortunate event that Casas misses time, Romy González is Boston’s only experienced first baseman behind Casas. Are…
As baseball is gearing up for the new season, ESPN’s Buster Olney has published the names of top 10 shortstops for this coming campaign, and according to him, Baltimore Orioles star Gunnar Henderson is the third-best player at the position. The Orioles are aiming to make it to the playoffs for a third straight season, and the 23-year-old will be an…
With spring training starting up for the Baltimore Orioles, there is still one key area that is a concern for the team. For the last two years, no team in the American League has won more games than the Orioles in the regular season. Unfortunately, that hasn’t resulted in postseason success. Last winter, Baltimore pulled off…
The Atlanta Braves could still add another starting pitcher before the end of March. But the Braves seem content to see how their young pitchers perform with an opportunity early in 2025. That doesn’t mean, though, that the team couldn’t then circle back to make a starting pitcher addition mid-season. Bleacher Report’s Zachary D. Rymer suggested the…
At some point during the 2025 season, the Atlanta Braves are going to make their move. It was a quiet offseason for the Braves, though their one big signing (outfielder Jurickson Profar) has the potential to pay off handsomely. Based on his track record, president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos has to simply be biding…
Through two seasons, Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken has not only met expectations, but surpassed them. Monken, 59, replaced the much-maligned Greg Roman following the 2022 season, and his balanced offense proved to be a perfect fit for Baltimore. Yes, the Ravens are still very much a run-first team, but their offense has far more…
Last offseason, the Carolina Panthers swung a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers to acquire wide receiver Diontae Johnson, hoping to provide quarterback Bryce Young with a dependable weapon. Well, the move obviously backfired, as Johnson logged just 30 catches for 357 yards and three touchdowns in seven games before being dealt to the Baltimore Ravens. It didn’t take long for…
Ben Johnson has said he wants to rip the Chicago Bears offense “down to the studs” and rebuild it around quarterback Caleb Williams for the 2025 season. Could his process include asking the team to trade away one of its highest-paid offensive starters, though — as the Detroit Lions once did during his tenure? Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton recently pitched seven NFL trades that would “shake up”…
The Cleveland Browns entered the offseason with news just as bad as the 3-14 season that preceded it. Edge rusher Myles Garrett has publicly requested a trade, hoping to chase a championship in the second half of his career. For a front office tasked with turning the team around, Garrett’s request is abominable. It represents a full rebuild and…
Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson had an up-and-down 2024 season as he looked to continue the giant strides he made in 2023. Coming off a 761-yard, five-touchdown season, the “big biscuit” was expected to further develop into one of the better tight ends in the NFL. But the football gods intervened. Ferguson suffered a knee…
After a rookie season where he set multiple records, Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta was the first tight end off the board in many 2024 fantasy football drafts. Fully justifying that ADP with a repeat finish as the TE1 felt unlikely from the get-go, and that’s what happened. Over his first six games last season, LaPorta had…
The Green Bay Packers will have a whole lot of key decisions to make this offseason in order to load up for a potential Super Bowl run next season. The Packers already have a nice chunk of cap space to swing some moves in free agency, but they could open up more money. One of…
