“Is this a sports interview, or is this therapy?” @hangmanpage.bsky.social , six years in, is still discovering why he matters in #AEW. He opened up about how he navigates that in my new piece for The Takedown on SI ahead of All In. 📺: youtu.be/o_rIQadtd2Y?... 📖: www.si.com/fannation/wr...

I like Mike Brown a lot, actually, but I think the #Knicks hiring him would be a lateral move. In fact, I think they may even be looking forward to another name down the line 👀

While I personally think the #Mets should part with prospects or money to go for a higher value arm, here are five cheaper external options I came up with that the lab could target ahead of the MLB Trade Deadline 👀

Over the last two weeks, the #Yankees have been by far and away the least clutch team in baseball (by both the eye test and FanGraphs). They were -2.01 coming into tonight (-2 or lower is considered "awful" in clutch situations). No one else in MLB is anywhere close.

Alright let's unlock a core memory. Who remembers that "Beethoven Lives Upstairs" TV movie they used to show in elementary school music classes in the 90s?

The Carlos Rodón revival is one of baseball’s best stories. There are three areas he has really improved that jump out to me. Let’s dive in ⬇️ #Yankees

The last verse of Long Walk Home best encompasses why Springsteen is so directly calling out Trump. The America he has written about for half a century isn’t just reflective of what it is willing to do, but just as importantly, what it won’t do. Now, that line is being crossed.

Brett Baty is coming into his own entirely because of the change in his approach at the plate. I’ve been paying close attention to his at-bats the last few games. Here’s why he’s succeeding for the #Mets:

I do think Francisco Lindor will come around as he typically does after a slow start. But the #Mets lineup is more dependent than ever on him to set the table. That pressure will add up and could affect others ⬇️

I preached for *months* on SNY about how beneficial it would be for Pete Alonso's quality of at-bats alone to hit behind Juan Soto in the #Mets lineup. Small sample size obviously, but look at his BB% and K% so far this year 👀 #MLB

Just dropped a great interview with Will Ospreay ahead of #AEWDynasty. He talks Owen Hart, Kevin Knight, changing his TV wrestling style, Josh Alexander, and a whole lot more. Will also have more for The Takedown on SI later. Catch it at the link below, all tiers get access! #AEW #wrestlesky

It may have cost them an early season game, but I have no issue with the #Mets trusting Griffin Canning in a big spot against the #Astros. #MLB

Jon Alba @jonalba.bsky.social · 29/03/2025

There was no doubt Juan Soto was going to bounce back in his second game with the #Mets. Also: what do you think is going to happen when you leave him a fastball high and inside?! ⬇️

Jon Alba @jonalba.bsky.social · 27/03/2025

The #Mets overcome a weak pitching staff with a good deadline add and a dynamic offense to win 92 games. The #Yankees utilize a strong bullpen to squeak into the playoffs despite offensive doldrums. Happy #OpeningDay! #MLB

The #Yankees need Carlos Rodón to play like an All-Star this year. The potential is there, but his hard contact worries me. #MLB

Clay Holmes added a pitch to his arsenal this offseason that I believe is going to dramatically change his trajectory as a starter. Here’s why I think it may be a big season for the #Mets new starter ⬇️

WWE just announced The Roast of WrestleMania to take place after the second night. Sami Zayn, The Miz, Braun Strowman, and Paul Heyman announced for it. Hosted by Tony Hinchcliffe, who was the comedian at the MSG Trump rally who made the viral controversial Puerto Rico comment. #WWE #wrestlesky

On the surface, it looked like Clarke Schmidt got shelled in his Spring Training debut for the #Yankees. That wasn’t necessarily the case. Here’s why both he and I think it was a productive outing ⬇️ #MLB

Here is what I had to say regarding Justin Fields and the #Jets on SNY the other night. A good fit at that price, and entirely reflective of a weak NFL Draft QB class. Still, the Jets have some talent, and they’ll have future options. I like it for them. #NFL

The #Yankees don’t have much of a choice when it comes to Jasson Dominguez having outfield woes. They have to stick it out and hope reps solve the issue. ⬇️ #MLB

The #Yankees changing their facial hair policy is more than what meets the eye. Why I think this could be an indicator of something much bigger happening 🧐
