Much was made of the Patriots trading the No. 14 pick in April’s NFL draft to the Steelers, and why they did it. The reported belief in NFL circles: Bill Belichick gave Pittsburgh a sweetheart deal to swap picks (New England got No. 17) in order to hose the Jets, who were selecting 15th, out … Continued
Things are better than they were for the Yankees at this time last week. And with the Oakland Athletics in town, it’s an opportunity to get themselves on a roll. But, still — as we head into Tuesday’s action, the Bombers are just 19-17 on the season, 10 games out of first place, and in … Continued
The Mets didn’t play a baseball game on Monday. That’s good news because it meant there was no way they could lose. It doesn’t mean New York still didn’t make some headlines, though. There’s one, in particular, involving infielder Ronny Mauricio that perked everyone’s ears up. Both he and Mark Vientos deserve a promotion. However, … Continued
The Heat have out-knicked the Knicks during the Eastern Conference semifinals. Julius Randle was asked about this issue after Miami won Game 4, 109-101, on Monday night to take a 3-to-1 series lead. His answer has not gone over well around town. “Maybe they want it more,” he said. “I don’t know. That’s been who … Continued
The Mets are right in the middle of a stretch of games where they were supposed to be taking care of lesser opponents. But so far, they’ve been the lesser opponent, going 1-5 against the Tigers and Rockies. Now, they’re starting a seven-game road trip with three games against the Reds, who own a 14-20 … Continued
The last-place Yankees can celebrate at least one moral victory. They limped into Tropicana Field for a weekend series with the MLB-best Rays and were competitive every step of the way, even as they lost two of three. Lucky for the Yankees, it won’t be long before they see Tampa Bay again. The rival Rays … Continued
The shorthanded Knicks needed to control a must-win Game 4. Instead, they continually played from behind as the rival Heat rolled to a 109-101 victory and a 3-1 series lead. Miami straight outplayed the Knicks. They showed cohesion while New York could never quite get in a rhythm. Instead of the league’s worst offense, the … Continued

As we’ve already established on these here interweb pages, the Mets are on the struggle bus right now. Losing 11 of 14 and dropping to 17-18 on the year will do that. New York has already called upon some of the kids from Triple-A to join them in Francisco Alvarez and Brett Baty. So, when … Continued
Folks, the Mets are not a good baseball team right now. Remember when they were in the midst of that mid-April West Coast road trip and had a 14-7 record? Yea, I hardly remember it, either. New York has lost 11 of its last 14 games to drop below .500 for the first time since … Continued
There is absolutely no reason — save another injury on Monday night, which is certainly possible — for this to not be Aaron Hicks’ final full day with the Yankees. Slugger Aaron Judge is expected to be activated from the injured list Tuesday. The Bombers must make room on the roster to accommodate him. Their options … Continued
Things haven’t been going well for the Yankees of late. They don’t enter Monday’s action with a losing record like the Mets, but they’re still a last-place team in the American League East. And after losing two of three in a hard-fought series against the Rays, they’re 10 games behind Tampa. If we look to … Continued
For the most part, Jets fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief. After all, Aaron Rodgers is officially a Jet and installed as their starting quarterback. Life is good, right? It is, but it’ll be even better once defensive tackle Quinnen Williams gets the new contract he’s looking for. New York went into this … Continued
Luis Severino? Probably not an aficionado of “The Office.” The Yankees right-hander moaned about how his rehab process is being handled before Sunday’s meltdown loss to the Rays. Severino, who has yet to pitch this season due to a lat sprain, thinks the team is slow-playing things. Among other grievances. From NJ.com: The often-injured right-hander … Continued
The Yankees return to the Bronx after a short three-game road trip down south to face off against the Tampa Bay Rays at the Trop. Round 1 went to Tampa, as they took two of three against New York. That performance dropped the Bombers to 18-17 on the season and now 10 games back of … Continued
Year 3, Phase 1 of The Florida Project didn’t end ideally: the Yankees lost two of three to the Rays and are still last place in the AL East. And yet, the Bronx Bombers otherwise achieved all other goals of the series. All three games were competitive and so were the Yankees’ at-bats. Base hits … Continued
It’s almost as though Jimmy Butler’s face at the closing seconds of Game 2 were foreshadowing. The Heat came out as advertised in Game 3 and shut the Knicks down quickly. New York rallied here and there but was never in control of the game at any point, and now might be down a key … Continued

YES Network announcer and ESPN radio host, Michael Kay, has found himself in the news this week for a not-so-good reason. He’s trying to flip the narrative by getting Yankees fans excited about an eventual promotion for outfield prospect Jasson Dominguez. The Yankees entered Friday having won two games in a row. They’re also kicking … Continued
Things haven’t been going well for the Mets lately. But as they finished a homestand and left for Detroit earlier this week, there were reasons to be optimistic. One of those reasons was that New York would be getting both Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander in the rotation together for the first time. During their … Continued
Now that the 2023 NFL Draft is in the rearview mirror, general manager Joe Schoen is back to locking up crucial pieces of the Giants’ roster. Quarterback Daniel Jones was the first domino to fall at the outset of free agency. Defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence is the most recent, just agreeing to a four-year, $90 … Continued
The rise (and fall) of starting pitcher Matt Harvey in New York is something this generation of Mets fans will be talking about for a long time. The hurler most recently made an appearance in the World Baseball Classic with Team Italy. He was effective, and it looked like the 34-year-old still had something left … Continued
Gerard Gallant was livid anyone would dare speculate about his future as Rangers coach. But, it turns out, there is good reason to do so. First: Sportsnet reported Gallant and general manager Chris Drury had a heated confrontation after the Blueshirts’ Game 4 loss to the Devils (we have been unable to locate the initial … Continued
Folks, there’s no way around it. The Mets are not a good baseball team right now. And in the midst of New York getting swept out of Detroit by the Tigers, Jeff McNeil gave us a hot mic moment that every fan can relate to. Remember when everyone was feeling good after a 7-3 West … Continued
Two years ago, I half-joked that the Yankees should devote serious time to uncovering why they regularly struggled against the rival Rays at Tropicana field. Even more jokingly, this proposed effort was dubbed “The Florida Project” after the initial development phase of neighboring Walt Disney World. Something must have clicked last year because New York … Continued
Did you think the Mets’ series at Citi Field against the Washington Nationals last week was bad? Well, then what they did (read: didn’t do) in Detroit against the Tigers really takes the cake. This series began a 13-game stretch where it looked like an opportunity for New York to finally take off and find … Continued
Just a few days ago, it seemed like the walls were caving in on the Yankees (as ridiculous as that sounds in early May). Four straight losses, punctuated by some questionable moves from the manager will do it. Just as quickly as that happened, New York broke its four-game losing streak. And not only that, … Continued
We have big drama in Old Bridge, a Central Jersey town that has the right to petition for admittance into the Shore region if it desires. From NJ.com: Local police are investigating the mysterious dumping of 15 wheelbarrow loads of pasta along a creek in a residential section of Old Bridge last week, officials said. … Continued
The Rangers had their baggie day Wednesday. Gerard Gallant held a press conference, which is typically a good sign he will be retained as head coach. But then again, NHL teams change coaches like underwear. The veteran, win-now Blueshirts did just fall flat on their face with their seven-game loss to the Devils. And James … Continued
Michael Kay’s newest feud: Some guy on Twitter. And still no answer. That’s all you have. I never DM anyone anything I wouldn’t make public so this is fine but the fact I gave you the consideration of DMing you a response and you made it public tells me all I need to know about … Continued
Through injuries, rain, and Aaron Boone’s bullpen management, the Yankees broke out of their funk and won a series. Even better, it was against the rival Guardians. Three competitive games, all in which the winning team came from behind. Don’t let the standings fool you, nor New York taking the season series, 4-2. There’s still … Continued
Brian Cashman had a pretty good Wednesday. The Yankees won (albeit with two more injuries) and he got exactly what he wanted from his pregame press briefing. Fans may not be buying what the general manager was selling amid the Bombers’ rocky start. But local columnists are. Which is the point. One of the big … Continued
The 2023 MLB season is a month old and in a highly unprecedented turn of events, the Yankees do not have a closer. No, seriously. It’s true. It was a good run of Mariano Rivera, David Robertson, Andrew Miller, Aroldis Chapman and then Clay Holmes last season. Holmes even earned an All-Star selection thanks to … Continued
Through the rain, more injuries, and playing .500 ball through the first month of the season, and a Jose Trevino walk-off, the Yankees finally won a series again. Wednesday’s 4-3 extra-innings win over the Guardians didn’t come easy. Harrison Bader, fresh off the injured list, exited the game after a scary outfield collision and is … Continued
The Giants entered this past offseason with a few things on their to-do list. Outside of retaining guys like Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley, New York had to acquire players who could add firepower to the offense. One of the ways in which Joe Schoen got that done was by making a trade for Darren … Continued
Not many things have been going right for the Yankees to start the 2023 season. Sure, they own a 16-15 record, but that’s accompanied by being 8.5 games back of the Tampa Bay Rays and in the American League East basement. One consistent bright spot since Opening Day, though, has been starting pitcher Gerrit Cole. … Continued
Bill Belichick hates the Jets. Everyone knows that. But does he hate them enough that he would cut the Steelers a sweetheart NFL draft deal in order to screw over Gang Green? That’s what people inside the league apparently believe. A quick recap: The Patriots had the No. 14 pick in last week’s draft. The … Continued
Didi Gregorius had the honor of playing shortstop for the Yankees right after Derek Jeter officially hung up his spikes for good. Those were some big shoes to fill, but Sir Didi did a terrific job during his five seasons in the Bronx. Once he left Yankee Stadium, though, things haven’t been nearly as smooth … Continued
The Giants have exercised Andrew Thomas’ fifth-year option but could soon be offering him a lucrative contract extension.
Aaron Rodgers gets all the headlines — and understandably so — but the Jets have made win-now moves up and down the roster this offseason. Even at punter. The Jets were expected to move on from the inconsistent Braden Mann. But replacing him with Thomas Morstead — an accomplished veteran with 15 seasons, a Pro … Continued
Apparently, all the Mets legends are returning to the field in video game form. First, it was David Wright coming back on MLB The Show ’23.

While it’s only the month of May, life is pretty good as a Jets fan right now. The Aaron Rodgers trade is finally complete, and we’ve even gotten a glimpse of him throwing footballs to his new receivers. One of those includes the 2022 Offensive Rookie of the Year, Garrett Wilson. Here’s a glimpse of … Continued
Julius Randle returned and the Knicks overcame an inconsistent performance and performed when it mattered in the third quarter, beating the shorthanded Miami Heat 111-105. The East Semifinals are tied 1-1. It helped that Randle performed well too. He was in prime point-forward form with 25 points, 11 rebounds, and eight assists. Josh Hart was … Continued
