Aroldis Chapman is going to be a handsomely-paid setup man when he returns. Yankees manager Aaron Boone said the hard-throwing southpaw is close to coming off the injured list. And while Boone didn’t come out and say it directly, all indications are Chapman will not be getting his closer job back. “A big-time arm in … Continued
Pete Alonso was hit for the seventh time this season in Tuesday night’s game vs. the Padres.
As NBA publications pump out mock drafts, there are bound to be differences of opinion on what the Knicks are going to do. Best player available or fill a position of need? Guard, wing, or big man? We could even break those designations into specific positions like point guard, small forward, etc., but we won’t. … Continued
Remember when Gio Urshela became a Yankees fan favorite out of nowhere? An injury to Miguel Andujar and his ensuing career season in 2019 made it so. Urshela’s slick plays in the field and friendship with Gleyber Torres made him all the more popular. Fast forward to today. Urshela is on the Twins thanks to … Continued
Kevin Durant is one of the greatest players in NBA history. We don’t necessarily understand why he chose to join the Nets, or how he thinks it’s a good idea to keep Kyrie Irving around, but to each his own. But this? This is a bridge too far. Steve can’t beat up on max Kellerman … Continued
Mark Sanchez thought the Chargers would be a “crazy” Super Bowl opponent for the Jets back in 2009…
So much for the Nets standing up to Kyrie Irving. The Post reports “all indications strongly point toward a reunion” between Irving and the Nets. And the industry belief is the Nets will give the mercurial guard a contract extension this summer. Buzz about a blockbuster deal that would send Irving to the Lakers for … Continued
The Yankees are hoping San Francisco is not in Aaron Judge’s heart come winter.

In hindsight, it is a bit remarkable how long they stuck with Sanchez. How much tolerance there was for his poor defense and lack of … Continued
If there is a Game 7 at the Garden, there is going to be tension. And not just on the ice. If the Rangers and Lightning go the distance, the series will end on June 14 at MSG. The same night Justin Bieber is booked for a concert. The drama. But not really. It’s not … Continued
The Rangers tend to be good enough to get your hopes up, only to rip your heart out. That’s how you end up with fewer championships than the rest of the Original Six, plus others. If you’re a fan, you’ve seen them lift the Stanley Cup once — if you’re lucky. Well, maybe not for … Continued
Some random Giants thoughts as the team’s offseason program continues.
First things first: The Knicks aren’t trading for either Rudy Gobert or Donovan Mitchell this offseason. Especially Mitchell. The Jazz will cater to every one of his desires in an attempt to keep him happy (and on the roster). They don’t want to host the 2023 NBA all-star game in Salt Lake City without him. … Continued
The Mets were socking the ball all around Petco Park on Monday night (they rolled the Padres, 11-5, for their third straight win). Er, stroking. We’ll let SNY’s Gary Cohen and Keith Hernandez explain. It's 11:45pm on the east coast and we've lost all control in the booth 😂 pic.twitter.com/hceBsq4fpU — SNY (@SNYtv) June 7, 2022 … Continued

Twenty-year-old Francisco Alvarez has put together a great 2022 season in Double-A thus far.
When Max Scherzer signed last November, the Mets were sitting calm, cool and collected at the blackjack table. They had been dealt a pair of aces – first Jacob deGrom, now Scherzer — and a postseason run felt very possible. The Scherzer addition gave them their best preseason chance at a World Series in over a … Continued
The concept of Joe Judge calling the Patriots’ offensive plays never made much sense. Which is why a report from The Athletic does. The former Giants coach is not on track to be New England’s de facto offensive coordinator, according to national reporter Jeff Howe. Instead, Bill Belichick is expected to hand those duties to … Continued
The voice of the Yankees is going to ease up a bit during the second half of the season. John Sterling is only going to call select road games the rest of the way, according to The Post’s Andrew Marchand. He will be behind the microphone for WFAN at all home games and for divisional … Continued

In case you missed it, the Phillies fired Joe Girardi on Friday morning. Here in Yankeeland, nobody really seems surprised. If it feels like he was barely in Philly at all, it’s because he was.

Joe Girardi’s firing is a reminder that sometimes the obvious answer is the correct one. The Phillies went on an offseason spending spree, pushing their payroll north of $200 million. And now they are 22-29, sitting 12 games behind the Mets in the National League East. They haven’t just been bad, either — they’ve been … Continued

The Phillies are a complete disaster. All the conditions for an in-season firing are there. But The Post’s Jon Heyman says the industry expectation is … Continued
Jim Kaat has made bad national headlines for the second time in less than a year. The Hall of Famer and ex-Yankees television analyst, for some unfathomable reason, called Yankees southpaw Nestor Cortes “Nestor the Molester” during a Twins-Tigers game on Thursday.

The Mets swept the Phillies and Nationals at home. They’ll now embark on a tough 10-game road trip out West.
The short answer is flexibility. The longer answer is a bit more complicated, but the Nets are deferring a first-round pick acquired from the 76ers in the James Harden trade to 2023. Instead of making the No. 23 pick in the 2022 NBA draft, the Nets will have Philadelphia’s first-rounder in 2023. What does this … Continued
The Giants and Jets have put together productive offseasons. But ESPN believes either team could’ve done something differently.
https://twitter.com/FirstTake/status/1532040110765654019 We can be honest here: The dynamic between Stephen A. Smith and Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo on ESPN First Take every week is growing a bit stale. Don’t get us wrong. It’s still tremendous television. But once you’ve heard them argue about the NBA nine or 10 times, it all begins to run together. … Continued

Adam Fox has been tremendous for the Rangers during their postseason run.
