it was Brooks Robinson, then Jay “Mr. Olympia” Cutler, and then Brad Ziegler from the A’s Triple-A team. Now, I got a chance ...
From RotoRob...while nobody was paying attention Al Horford
notched 20 double-doubles in his rookie season.
Marion Gaborik provided something to give thanks to
for our Southern neighbours by acknowledging to fantasy players
that he has not been up to snuff this season. How can you not celebrate American Thanksgiving without giving thanks to someone like the ...
As sad as it sounds, Boston probably hasn’t
had a good goalie since Byron Dafoe was saving
pucks almost a decade ago. The Bruins really haven’t had a solid goalie since Englishman Byron Dafoe in 1998-99. Since then, the team has basically ...
The Avalanche has suffered another major injury to
a key player with Ryan Smyth, right, expected to
miss the next eight weeks with a fractured ankle. Ryan Smyth is an interesting guy. Not exactly renowned for his offensive numbers, although he put up ...

If the Braves plan to pen Mark Teixeira
to a contract extension, they’ll have to deal with

Indy will spend all weekend compiling her NHL
picks so Mike can look smart. The price? Alpo

Todd Bertuzzi adds some edge to the skillful
Wings and it may come in very handy as
they look to topple Calgary. Picking your fantasy playoff roster isn’t an exact science. You can’t just stack your team with stars because, in the end, ...
Ty Howington is gone, but let’s hope he’s
not forgotten for the sake of the Reds and
Homer Bailey. My keeper league has a minor league system which is so freaking deep thanks to these rules that allow you to protect farmhands for up to ...
While Crash wasn’t banging the boards quite as
much as he did in 2005-06, he should still
be among the most highly sought after free agents on the market this summer. What’s that? The NBA Playoffs are still going? So what. It’s never too ...

The Eastern Conference Finals could very well come
down to Ray Emery, right, vs. Ryan Miller. EASTERN
CONFERENCE #1 Buffalo Sabres vs. #4 Ottawa Senators Many moons ago, the Buffalo Sabres and Ottawa Senators played a regular season game that wound up ...
Worried about Jamie Moyer’s recent starts? Don’t be.
He’s the master of adjustments. Jamie Moyer has been
roughed up in his last two starts, including last night, when he endured the worst bitch slapping he’s had as a Phillie, ...
Daniel Alfredsson has exorcised plenty of playoff demons
already, but the best may be yet to come.
At the start of the season, I don’t think anyone would have predicted this match-up for the Stanley Cup final. Sure, a lot of pundit-types picked ...
As fantastic as Carlos Lee has been this

Orlando Hudson can thank the man upstairs for
his all-star selection as he hasn’t exactly been swinging
a mean stick lately. Time to file our weekly Diamondbacks Report, courtesy of the ‘Zona boys at azsportshub.com. The break couldn’t come ...

The way Jake Fox is launching moonshots this
year, you better hang on to his autographed cardboard.
We’re back with a new installment of Minor Matters, this time heading down to the Double-A level, where we’ll check in on a few Cubs’ farmhands ...
Jonny Gomes isn’t much of an outfielder, nor
can he select a good luck charm that works,
but he’s enjoying a big season at the plate. In an article we published yesterday, my esteemed colleague James Morris mentioned that he “would very ...
