There’s an injury epidemic plaguing MLB pitchers. What can we do about it?

We’ve seen an uptick in elbow injuries to pitchers in recent years, and this year there were 132 pitchers on the injured list on opening day. Last year, over 34% of pitchers to appear in a game had the dreaded Tommy John surgery at some point in their pasts, and that number is rising eachContinue reading “There’s an injury epidemic plaguing MLB pitchers.

A tale of two boroughs:

New York has and always will be a baseball town. Every April, the Mets and Yankees fans in this city come to life after a long offseason of watching their football teams lose. For some, this season brings a new hope, while for others, the disappointment continues. The two New York teams couldn’t have gottenContinue reading “A tale of two boroughs:”

Doubling up the last MLB preview:

Let’s just not even talk about the bracket. You have to try to make one as bad as I did (although my West was perfect through the first round). I also gave you one of my worst picks ever in Stetson against UNC, so we’re gonna move away from basketball and instead bring you theContinue reading “Doubling up the last MLB preview:”

Predicting this Super Bowl won’t be easy.

The Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers met in the Super Bowl just four years ago, and it taught us a lot about both teams heading into this weekend. However, I’m still going back and forth deciding which team I want to ride with. At first glance, Kansas City +2 felt like free money.Continue reading “Predicting this Super Bowl won’t be easy.”

An argument for Brock Purdy:

Before I start writing, let me first apologize for my absence the last two months. I’ve grown a loyal audience in my beginning stages (I am so grateful for all of you) and it was not my intention to abandon it.
