Meibrys Viloria Hits Key Double

Kansas City Royals rookie catcher Meibrys Viloria came through with a critical double against Noah Syndergaard on Friday to help the Royals win against the Mets.

Scott Oberg Gifted A Win By Offense

Colorado Rockies closer Scott Oberg failed to keep his opponent scoreless in a second-straight non-save situation, but he got bailed out by Nolan Arenado this time. Following a debacle of an outing against the Padres where Oberg allowed four earned in just one inning of work, he allowed the Diamondbacks to score in a tie […]

Nolan Arenado Walks Off The DBacks

Colorado Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado cleaned up the mess on Wednesday by drilling a two-run walk-off homer into the seats in left in the bottom of the ninth. Arenado's blast was only his second base hit of the series against the Diamondbacks, but it was a no-doubter. Arenado now has 27 home runs and […]

Rashaad Penny Snags TD Pass Over Blitz

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny made a beautiful catch and run for a touchdown on the final play from scrimmage before Seahawks training camp came to an end on Tuesday.

Chris Carson Catches Practice Touchdown

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson has been getting particular attention in practice so far for his receiving skills. On Tuesday, everyone was reminded again of how much Seattle wants to include their running backs in the passing game as both Carson and Rashaad Penny recorded receiving touchdowns. Offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer told reporters afterwards […]

Peter Lambert Struggles Against Arizona

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Peter Lambert showed his wild side against the Diamondbacks on Monday as he walked five batters in just five innings pitched.

Chris Iannetta To Be Released

Colorado Rockies catcher Chris Iannetta is set to be released on Tuesday according to Thomas Harding at MLB.com.

Raimel Tapia Knocks Three More Hits

Colorado Rockies outfielder Raimel Tapia continues to take advantage of the playing time he's given as he smacked three more hits on Monday. With David Dahl on the IL for a couple weeks, Tapia's getting a handful of starts, and he's doing a great job of reminding everyone what kind of player he is. Tapia […]

Tony Wolters Keeps Hitting

Colorado Rockies catcher Tony Wolters owes a gift to whoever his hitting coach was over the offseason. After years of living purely off his defensive skills, Wolters has turned it around in 2019 and actually contributed at the plate as well as behind it. Wolters smacked two more hits on Monday, raising his batting average […]

Trevor Story Is A Souvenir Machine

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story ripped a solo shot on Monday in Denver, giving him a home run in four consecutive home games as he vies to become the most popular Rockies player through souvenirs alone. Story's 27th home run of the season came in another Colorado loss as the team has underperformed besides having […]

Ian Desmond Breaks Hitless Streak

Colorado Rockies outfielder Ian Desmond came up to bat in the sixth inning while riding an 0-for-15 streak. Fortunately, that was apparently the moment he was waiting for. Desmond knocked a single to right to drive in a run, and he would repeat the effort in the top of the ninth to put the game […]

German Marquez Controls Padres

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez jumped right back on the horse after his rough outing against the Astros earlier in the week. Marquez tossed eight innings of three-run ball against the Padres, earning his 11th win and ending Colorado's five-game losing streak. Marquez gave up a couple runs early on a pair of solo […]

Yonder Alonso Homers In Second Straight

Colorado Rockies first baseman Yonder Alonso hit a rocket out to right-center in the top of the sixth inning against the Padres on Sunday.

Jorge Soler Hammers 33rd Home Run

Kansas City Royals outfielder Jorge Soler is racing towards the single-season franchise record in home runs, but not for much longer. Soler murdered a ball to right-center for the 33rd home run of the season on Saturday, and he now sits just five behind franchise leader Mike Moustakas. Soler is on pace to top 40 […]

Mike Montgomery Shuts Out Tigers

Newly acquired Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Mike Montgomery shut down the Tigers for seven innings on Saturday to earn his first win for the new team. Montgomery struck out 12 and looked utterly dominant as he only allowed four hits and walked no one. This was Montgomery's first start without a pitch limit, and […]

Jason Myers Makes 55-Yarder

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers got off to a rocky start by pushing a 56-yard attempt wide right, but just before the end of the first half on Thursday, Myers was able to sneak a 55-yarder inside the right upright. Myers lost last year's kicking competition to Sebastian Janikowski, but after a Pro Bowl season […]

Barkevious Mingo Gets First Sack For Seattle

Seattle Seahawks defensive end Barkevious Mingo provided solid pressure all night in the team's first preseason game against the Broncos. Mingo played surprisingly deep into the game, all the way into the fourth quarter, as the coaches are trying to give him as many pass-rushing reps as possible. With Frank Clark in Kansas City, Jarran […]

J.T. Barrett Signed By Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks have signed quarterback J.T. Barrett to the team for now, but he's not expected to be with the squad for long. Barrett was signed because Geno Smith had a minor surgical procedure on his knee on Friday, and that left Russell Wilson and Paxton Lynch as the only quarterbacks left on the […]

Ed Dickson Expected Out Through First Game

Seattle Seahawks tight end Ed Dickson is expected to be out for up to five weeks after having knee surgery, and it's not clear if Seattle will be keeping him now. Dickson was brought in last season, but he didn't play much of a role for most of his time with the team. Now with […]

George Fant Suffers Sprained Ankle

Seattle Seahawks offensive lineman/tight end George Fant went down with an ankle sprain in Thursday's game that head coach Pete Carroll described as "legit." While that's not a medical definition, it gives nothing but bad feelings about Fant's timetable. Fant is a hybrid player for Seattle, often working as a sixth offensive lineman/blocking tight end, […]

Jazz Ferguson Shows Off Strength With TD

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jazz Ferguson is one step closer to making the squad after he showed out in the first preseason game of the year. Ferguson snagged the most passes of any receiver Seattle receiver, led the team in receiving yards, and muscled his way ahead of a defensive back to snatch a six-yard […]

Xavier Turner Leads The Way Against Broncos

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/running back Xavier Turner was the bell cow in the team's first preseason game against the Broncos, and it's not surprising if most readers have never heard of him. An undrafted rookie signed out of Tarleton State University, Turner is lucky if he's fifth on the depth chart at running back, and […]

Paxton Lynch Shines In First Preseason Game

Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Paxton Lynch looked like a star when he was on the field against his former team on Thursday. Lynch took over from Geno Smith and commanded the second half of the game, throwing for 109 yards and a touchdown. Lynch's 11-for-15 performance garnered a lot of attention since it came against […]

Geno Smith Has Minor Surgery

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith underwent minor surgery on his knee on Friday to remove a cyst. Smith was given the start in Thursday's preseason game against the Broncos, but he was removed after the first half.

Nolan Arenado Continues To Roll

Colorado Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado smacked a single in Friday's game and scored the team's only run in the bottom of the ninth inning, and he somehow seems immune to the struggles the team is going through. While his team has fallen from second in the NL West to fourth in a matter of […]

Ian Desmond Is 1-For-20 In Last Five Starts

Colorado Rockies outfielder Ian Desmond is in the midst of quite a slide. Desmond is hitting just .050 over his last five starts, last knocking a single a week ago. He did get a tiny moment of relief on Friday when he grounded out to bring the team's only run home, but it wasn't exactly […]

Scott Oberg Lit Up In Non-Save Situation

Colorado Rockies closer Scott Oberg did what most closers do when they are forced to pitch in a non-save situation. He got shelled. Oberg was called in on Friday to close out the game against the Padres while the Rockies were already trailing 3-1, and he promptly had his worst appearance all season. It was […]

Kyle Freeland Loses With Quality Start

The woes of the Colorado Rockies continued as starting pitcher Kyle Freeland did a rare thing and threw a great outing for the team, but the offense failed to help him out. Freeland tossed six innings while only allowing three earned runs on eight hits, two walks, and three strikeouts, but the Rockies only scored […]

Mike Badgley Nails Since Extra Point

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Mike Badgley had an easy gig in the team's first preseason game, nailing the only opportunity he was given. Badgley was summoned for an extra point on one of the team's two touchdowns, and he made it. There were no field goal opportunities as the Chargers seem to have finally settled […]

Hunter Henry Catches Two Passes

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry brought in both passes thrown his way in the team's preseason game against the Cardinals, showing that he was healthy and ready to be a regular target. Henry was heavily hyped coming into last season until he tore his ACL, but a pointless performance in last year's playoff […]
