The Giants have done it again. They have signed yet another veteran supporting cast wide receiver you have heard of. The latest pickup by general manager Joe Schoen: Former Bills slot man and amateur epidemiologist Cole Beasley. NFL Network first reported the signing. Beasley, 34, has ties to head coach Brian Daboll and Schoen from … Continued
As we continue watching the season spiral out of control for the Mets and Yankees, it’s essential to also think about other, more positive things. If you prefer for those things to remain baseball-related, look no further than various top prospect lists. The latest one comes from Keith Law of The Athletic. Between his midseason top-60 … Continued

Craig Carton walked out of WFAN last month having accomplished what he was rehired to do: Bury Michael Kay and ESPN Radio New York. Kay won the Fall 2021 quarterly ratings book, the biggest victory of his radio career. And then Carton and co-host Evan Roberts steamrolled him. Seven straight books, 10 of 11 overall … Continued
After spending boatloads of Steve Cohen’s money, the Mets entered 2023 with the highest of expectations. The goal was to return to the postseason and make a deep run toward the World Series. The chances of that happening at this point in the year are slim. New York is more likely to trade players away … Continued
After a horrific 1-5 road trip coming out of the All-Star break, the Yankees will try to right the ship at home against the Kansas City Royals. It will be their third series with Sean Casey as the team’s new hitting coach. Apparently, that rare midseason coaching change was spurred by old friend Jameson Taillon … Continued
The last-place Yankees are in a free fall, one so bad that we’re finally asking the question: What if this is the end of Aaron Boone? All the signs are there. Gleyber Torres is the only one hitting consistently well. Aaron Judge is still injured. Gerrit Cole is the only reliable pitcher as the Yankees … Continued
Before the Jets officially landed Aaron Rodgers in a trade from the Green Bay Packers, the four-time NFL MVP discussed how close he was to choosing retirement. But now, it doesn’t seem like he’s going to hang up his spikes anytime soon. Unless something magical happens for Gang Green in 2023, at least. The thought … Continued
It’s been a rough week for Giants running back Saquon Barkley. Or, should we just say “running back Saquon Barkley” for the time being? The deadline for players designated under the franchise tag to negotiate a multi-year deal with their team was July 17th at 4 pm ET. New York and Barkley’s camp let that … Continued
The Mets showed a hint of life during their first homestand of the second half. Their chances of returning to the postseason remain slim, but they’re not dead just yet. New York will try to continue reviving itself in Boston against the Red Sox. Here are the probable pitching matchups for the weekend. Friday at … Continued
Folks, the Yankees are reeling right now. They came out of the All-Star break with a 1-5 road trip, which included getting swept by the Angels. Now, they’re back home and hope to get on track vs. the Kansas City Royals. Here are the probable pitching matchups at the moment. Friday at 7:05 pm ET: … Continued
The Giants used this past offseason to make their priorities crystal clear. When it comes to the offense, they felt it was more important to lock quarterback Daniel Jones down to a multi-year extension instead of running back Saquon Barkley. But that doesn’t mean Danny Dimes has a lot of believers heading into 2023. We’ve … Continued
We missed this, but thankfully Awful Announcing did not: Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo is bringing his Sirius XM program to Bar A in August. It will be Russo’s first time doing a remote show at the Jersey Shore venue since the “Mike and the Mad Dog” days. And get this: Russo told Dan Patrick that … Continued
If I had to pick just one team that’s owned the Mets the most throughout the course of their history, I’d have to say it’s the Braves. Especially if the discussion is focused on the last 30-35 years of play. After all, they’ve gone to the playoffs 22 times since 1991, with 20 of those … Continued
It’s no secret that the New York Yankees are looking for outfield help on this year’s trade market. With the Aug. 1 deadline approaching, an interesting rumor has surfaced. Per Yankees beat veteran Mark Feinsand, the Bronx Bombers are interested in Dylan Carlson of the St. Louis Cardinals. The switch-hitting Carlson is still just 24 … Continued
Amid rumors of the Mets preparing to possibly be a trade-deadline seller, starting pitcher Justin Verlander stated he was still committed to the club. He backed that up with a vintage performance on Wednesday night at Citi Field against the White Sox. He then celebrated his dominant outing by having fun with reporters during his … Continued
There are few things better in this world than a solid baseball hat that supports your favorite team. I’ve never been much of a fan of mash-ups when it comes to hats, though. Call me old-fashioned, but that’s the way I am. However, I’m pretty sure the vast majority of Mets fans never want to … Continued
Mike Francesa is not letting up on the Yankees. “Bad pitchers continue to dominate the Yanks. Comical,” the WFAN legend tweeted Wednesday after the Angels swept the Bombers in Anaheim. He lated added: “Hard to watch (manager Aaron) Boone say the same things every night.” The Angels beat the Yankees, 7-3, to complete the three-game … Continued
The Yankees are once again riding the Brian Cashman Analytics Express in 2023, this time on a new four-year tour. We’re barely past the All-Star Break and the man’s tenure continues to resemble the MTA. Hit or miss. Unreliable. Generally frustrating. The parade of disappointing adjectives doesn’t end. In fairness, Aaron Judge missing almost two … Continued
Giants wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins recently revealed he played the wild card win over the Vikings with a fractured foot.
The whole thing was just too perfect. Carlos Rodon blows a kiss to Yankees fans chirping him pic.twitter.com/fcquCS9Cb0 — Talkin’ Baseball (@TalkinBaseball_) July 19, 2023 Here is Carlos Rodón, the Yankees’ big offseason acquisition. Who has only thrown 14 2/3 innings this year, of course, because he got hurt. And he has not been any … Continued

Are you ready for Giants football? After a surprising 2022 performance, many of us are. That unfortunately can’t be said about running back Saquon Barkley. Since the moment Big Blue slapped the franchise tag on him, Barkley was hoping for an agreement between both sides on a multi-year deal. The deadline to get that done … Continued
Despite being a father in his mid-to-late 30s, I still enjoy playing video games to wind down at the end of the night. And this includes many hours of “MLB The Show 23.” This morning got me thinking on the matter. I currently have a Yankees franchise with the team in first place, unlike the … Continued
Here are five Jets storylines to follow as head coach Robert Saleh’s crew gears up for training camp this week.
MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand knows the New York Yankees well, having covered the team in some capacity for over two decades and also written two books about them. If he’s reporting something happening out of the Bronx, he’s serious. Thus, imagine the shock when Feinsand tweeted Monday that the Yankees wanted to trade for, above all … Continued
The Yankees currently own MLB’s second-highest payroll. And while the Bombers have struggled without Aaron Judge, they’re only 2.5 games out of the final AL Wild Card spot. We know New York will be buying at the trade deadline, but how much will they buy? The rumor mill makes it seem like the Yankees’ wishlist … Continued
When you think of Mets catching royalty, who comes to mind? For me, the first two are Gary Carter and Mike Piazza. Francisco Alvarez is entering their stratosphere when it comes to the home run department. In New York’s 11-10 slugfest victory on Tuesday night at Citi Field, Alvarez played a huge role. He went … Continued
The Yankees are still in a good spot to eventually qualify for the postseason. After all, it’s the middle of July and they’re just 2.5 games back of the final AL Wild Card spot. But as they keep struggling while waiting for Aaron Judge, it feels like the sky is falling. New York was 35-25 … Continued
Mike Francesa does not do lists, OK. “I think people do that when they don’t have anything else to talk about,” the WFAN legend said on a recent BetRivers podcast while answering a listener email inquiring about his thoughts on the online sports content tentpole — the listicle. “It is the easiest thing to do, … Continued
The revived Arena Football League will have 16 — or maybe 17? — teams, but not a single one in our backyard. The AFL announced its team locations Tuesday ahead of its scheduled 2024 relaunch. And the tri-state area was shut out. Travelle Gaines, the league’s deputy commissioner, said on Twitter the AFL tried to … Continued
The New York Knicks have been pretty open about shopping French guard and free agency bust Evan Fournier this summer. Nobody seems happier about this than, well, Evan Fournier. Speaking to French sports newspaper L’Equipe, Fournier vented his frustrations with the Knicks and gave a laundry list of reasons for wanting out. Among them, his … Continued
There’s no way around it — the Yankees are a different team without outfielder Aaron Judge in the lineup. And when I say “different”, what I really mean is worse. A lot worse. When he hurt his toe making a catch at Dodger Stadium back on June 3rd, the Yankees beat Los Angeles to improve … Continued
With the recent news of Jarrad Davis’ surgery, Giants’ second-year linebacker Darrian Beavers could earn a starting job.
The writers strike (and subsequent actors strike) has ground Hollywood to a halt. And it has delayed production on a Mike Francesa-involved endeavor. “I had even started working on a project with somebody, a sports project, and we had to shut it down until after because he’s in the writers union. And I’m in SAG-AFTRA … Continued
The Jets are slated to be featured on HBO’s Hard Knocks this summer. The premiere date is set for Tuesday, August 8th. This is exciting for people who want to get a behind-the-curtain look at New York’s preparations for the 2023 season. Just about everyone associated with Gang Green isn’t happy about it, though. We know … Continued
Has third baseman Josh Donaldson played his last game with the Yankees? It’s quite possible. However, it has nothing to do with general manager Brian Cashman making a decision he should’ve made months ago. Donaldson last appeared in a game on July 15th in Colorado against the Rockies. He hasn’t played since because of a … Continued
How many more times are we going to see a report about the Mets planning to call up prospect Ronny Mauricio before it’s actually true? The limit does not exist, apparently. As the Mets rested on Monday before starting their series at Citi Field against the White Sox, the pot got stirred on Twitter: According … Continued
Saquon Barkley’s inability to get a long-term deal from the Giants — and similar situations involving the Cowboys’ Tony Pollard and Raiders’ Josh Jacobs — has sparked another round of calls for the abolishment of the NFL’s franchise tag system. And — as always — these calls will go nowhere. We won’t argue the franchise … Continued
The Mets tried their best to get swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers over the weekend. Instead, Luis Guillorme saved them with a walk-off single in Sunday’s finale. After yet another day off on Monday, New York is now set to take the field against the White Sox at Citi Field. Here are the probable … Continued
Saquon Barkley’s Giants contract saga has hit a new — and potentially explosive — phase. The star running back did not land a long-term deal before Monday’s NFL franchise tag deadline. Barkley now has to play the 2023 season on a one-year, $10.1 million deal. Assuming he ever signs it (he will). But Barkley will … Continued
We’re about two weeks away from MLB’s August 1st trade deadline. Even with how much the Yankees have struggled, they’re still in the thick of things with a 50-44 record. So, you know general manager Brian Cashman will be trying to supplement his roster. The offense obviously needs help. New York has been connected to … Continued
It’s the middle of July, so you know we have to talk about Mets trade rumors. Unfortunately, these are not the kinds of rumors we want to be talking about as the deadline approaches. New York is still hoping to be a buyer prior to August 1st. To do that, though, they need to show … Continued
The Jets are back, baby. And everyone wants a slice. At least during Jets training camp practices. Gang Green has been in the news quite a bit over the past week. Not only did they officially get selected for Hard Knocks this year, but New York also locked down defensive tackle Quinnen Williams to the long-term … Continued
The Yankees blew two different leads on Sunday before losing to the Rockies in extra innings, and it might have been more than a simple bullpen meltdown. The YES Network had former Yankees John “Flash” Flaherty and Jeff Nelson on the call. Flaherty, normally an analyst and not play-by-play man, should change his nickname to … Continued
The New York Yankees were on the cusp of winning their series with the NL-worst Rockies and starting their second half strong. The once-vaunted Yankee bullpen let that win slip away not once but twice. Now, thanks to Tommy Kahnle and Nick Ramirez’s failures, the Bronx Bombers are in last place in the AL East. … Continued
The Yankees need outfield help and instead of acquiring #YankeesTwitter favorite Cody Bellinger, it could be a longtime foe instead. Per MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand, New York has also expressed interest in Rockies outfielder Randal Grichuk. The Yankees are closely monitoring the corner outfield market, and while Cody Bellinger seems like a natural fit, another name … Continued
