The Mets just announced details for the exclusive 100-seat speakeasy they’ve been working on beyond the right-field fence all winter.

With news … Continued

Every Yankees fan knows the story of the feud between Reggie Jackson and then-captain Thurman Munson. Jackson showed up to spring training after signing a record contract in free agency.

As I sit here and write this, MLB’s 2023 Opening Day festivities are one week away. The Mets will be getting their year started in Miami against the Marlins. Meanwhile, the Yankees will head north to the Bronx and welcome the San Francisco Giants to town. With the regular season on the horizon, each New … Continued
How will the Giants resolve their offensive and defensive line issues? Will they extend Andrew Thomas this offseason?
Did Mike Francesa write this eulogy for Dan Le Batard? "1 of the most famous moments in sports history, because…it happened in New York" "…was only a moment then he limped back to the locker room" "…only shot 2 shots the entire game & left" [Laughter] –Miami's LeBatard Show day after Willis Reed's death pic.twitter.com/g5vO171ddI … Continued

Jackson made the appearance to promote his new documentary “Reggie,” which debuts on Amazon Prime on Friday. The legendary shock jock asked … Continued
While we wait for the Jets’ trade for quarterback Aaron Rodgers to become official, they’ve continued supplementing the roster for their new signal-caller. Could Odell Beckham Jr. be next? It previously seemed like a real possibility. Recent developments over the last couple of days are pointing to it actually coming to fruition, too. Here’s what … Continued
The most important Yankee — at least according to ESPN — has yet to throw a bullpen this spring. The Bombers’ season “hinges” on left-hander Carlos Rodon, according to the Worldwide Leader. When they signed Rodon to a six-year, $162 million deal this winter, the Yankees expected him to pair with Cole to create the … Continued
MLB has decided to stick with its pitch clock system, for the most part, with Opening Day a week away. Which is to be expected, given how well it has worked in spring training. But there is always room for improvement. The league is fine-tuning some things and those adjustments were outlined in a recent … Continued
WFAN’s sister station in Boston is embroiled in controversy after an on-air personality made a racist remark.

Spring training games technically don’t count. But that doesn’t mean players don’t get frustrated when things aren’t going their way. Just ask Mets designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach about that. In fact, we don’t have to. We can just listen to this glorious hot mic moment on repeat instead: "I can't buy a fucking hit" -Daniel … Continued
Before the Mets took the field on Wednesday to face the Houston Astros, some roster moves were made. One of them involved top prospect Francisco Alvarez, who was officially optioned to Triple-A Syracuse to start the regular season. This isn’t surprising for a couple of reasons. The Mets traded James McCann this winter, but not … Continued
Yankees top prospect Anthony Volpe has looked terrific throughout spring training. So good, in fact, that despite only playing a handful of games above Double-A, he’s convinced at least one teammate he’s ready for the big leagues. But once the 21-year-old finally lands in the Bronx, can he stick at shortstop? One American League scout … Continued
Watching Mets and Yankees games during the regular season has typically been pretty easy. It’s gotten even easier over the past couple of years with SNY and YES providing streaming options. Enjoying games that are aired on Apple TV+ won’t be as easy as it was in 2022. However, we’ve noticed a loophole or two … Continued
Move over, Reggie Bars. Aaron Judge has something else to celebrate aside from his new $340 million contract.

Dubbed “The 99 Burger,” the sandwich features two wagyu patties with “new school” American cheese, special … Continued
Last week was a tough one for Mets fans.

So, it was a stressful weekend waiting for some legitimate … Continued
Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo needed a little juice, OK? The WFAN legend set the internet ablaze (as usual) Wednesday during his weekly residency on ESPN First Take. He closed out his rant segment with some footage showing he had great seats at a recent Bruce Springsteen show. And then he revealed he may have been … Continued

This man is CERTAIN he's on the team pic.twitter.com/G2NSj1OUPu — Jomboy Media (@JomboyMedia) March 21, 2023 The man appears to be Mark Kirsch, according to Twitter.

The Cincinnati Reds are too much of a laughingstock despite being one of MLB’s most storied franchises. It’s easy to forget the team dates back to the 19th century despite winning just five World Series titles. It sure seems it’s been that long since Cincinnati baseball was truly great. The last World Series appearance (and … Continued
Mike Francesa thinks the Anthony Volpe situation is straightforward. If the star shortstop prospect is ready, he makes the team. And if the New Jersey native ready, the Yankees play him. Every day. “I’ve hoped all along that the Yankees would make a commitment to Volpe when he deserved it,” the WFAN legend said on … Continued
The 2023 World Baseball Classic is officially in the books. While many Mets fans might still be feeling salty about what transpired (specifically regarding Edwin Diaz), it was an awesome spectacle.

I was blessed to have a very Italian grandmother, who I’ve missed dearly for the past two-plus decades now. Among the many things I miss is having her feed me.

General manager Brian Cashman responded by saying all signs pointed to him being healthy. Then, of course, the poor performance began. That was followed by a stint on the injured … Continued
It’s hard to match the Los Angeles Dodgers and their ability to consistently build winning baseball teams. Los Angeles has made the playoffs in ten consecutive seasons. The last time they finished below second place in the NL West was 2011. What’s crazier is the Dodgers won 106 games in 2021 and still had to … Continued
Only in New York, folks. Only in New York. From The Post: Page Six hears that a serial pooper has been stalking the halls of the legendary Shubert Theater — and the last time they struck, a turd appeared in the aisle near Hillary and Chelsea Clinton at “Some Like It Hot.” A source close … Continued

Thanks to the way the Mets built their roster this past winter, they entered spring training without a ton of burning questions.

SlamBall — the basketball-football fusion played on trampolines during the early 2000s — formally announced its revival Tuesday. And with big plans, too. From the press release: SlamBall, the fast-paced, gravity-defying sport that combines elements of basketball, football and trampolines, recently closed an $11 million Series A round … The professional league will officially “bounce … Continued
Anthony Volpe will play shortstop for the Yankees at some point in 2023. It is just a question of when the New Jersey native makes his long-anticipated MLB debut. It is very possible that Volpe could crack the Yankees’ Opening Day lineup. He’s been playing shortstop regularly in spring training games and regularly operates out … Continued
Baseball has looked much different during spring training. That’s due to a bunch of new rule changes that have gone into effect, including a limit on shifts and a pitch clock. But with Opening Day on the horizon, could MLB make tweaks to some rules? It’s possible. Evan Drellich of The Athletic reported that changes could be … Continued
St. Francis exited the college sports world Monday in shocking fashion. Which means the Northeast Conference will get the conference realignment wheels cranking again. The NEC will now be an eight-team league after the Brooklyn school shutters its athletics department at the end of the academic year. That means it almost assuredly has to add … Continued
We are still three years out from Munetaka Murakami moving to our shores permanently. And potentially taking up residence in the Bronx.

The Mets are scheduled to host the Miami Marlins on April 6th for their home opener. As Justin Verlander presumably takes the mound for New York, Citi Field will look different compared to 2022.

While we’re still in wait-and-see mode, all signs are pointing to four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers playing for the Jets in 2023. Once a trade between New York and the Green Bay Packers happens, there’s another piece of business to figure out. What number will Rodgers wear for Gang Green? Back when we were still … Continued
The Giants’ secondary has some question marks at a number of starting roles. What could the group look like next season?
St. John’s is trying to take the cheap route with Mike Anderson. The former Red Storm coach plans to file an arbitration lawsuit, according to ESPN, after the school fired him for cause in a blatant attempt to not pay the millions in scheduled salary owed him. From ESPN: Per his contract, Anderson would have … Continued
We’ve been focused on a possible reunion between Odell Beckham Jr. and the Giants since he became a free agent. That intensified when he publicly asked for New York to call his agent last week. But could OBJ be headed back to New York…to play for the Jets? According to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic, it … Continued
It’s safe to assume there’s no love lost between the Yankees and Houston Astros. Between the sign-stealing scandal and constantly getting ousted by them in the postseason, there’s plenty of frustration to go around.

Three years ago, the Washington Nationals were a Wild Card team who made a miracle run to a World Series win over the mighty Astros.
