After discussing the two home runs he hit last night with MASN’s Dan Kolko (and using the word “heater” repeatedly), Bryce Harper was asked about Anthony Rendon, Ryan Zimmerman and Jayson Werth returning to the Nats’ lineup. Maybe it’s the Mets series coming up, maybe it’s the new-found confidence with Jonathan Papelbon in town, but for whatever reason, Harper didn’t hold back. “Ah, it makes us the best team in…

During the summer, San Rafael’s Albert Park baseball stadium typically draws around 450 people to watch the minor-league San Rafael Pacifics. On this Tuesday evening, though, there are close to 900 for an independent Pacific Association game against the Vallejo Admirals. There’s a handful of local broadcast news crews as well—but their cameras aren’t trained on the field. Instead, all eyes are on a small monitor at the right edge…

Baseball’s non-waiver trade deadline is at 3 p.m. Friday, so it’s the last time this season that teams can trade players without having them clear waivers. It’s usually a hectic day, but then again, it’s been a crazy week. Here is what has gone down on Friday: Toronto continued to make trades, adding relief pitcher Mark Lowe: There was speculation that they might get outfielder Ben Revere, too: Minnesota got…

The Toronto Blue Jays traded several promising young players to the Detroit Tigers for standout pitcher David Price this week. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio) Every year at the end of July, Major League Baseball teams look at their rosters and their records and make a choice. Do they go out and acquire talented veteran players, who would improve their teams as they make a playoff run this year, even if that means giving…

The baseball card, sold to an anonymous buyer, had remained in the family of Archibald McMahon, an outfielder for the Atlantic Base Ball Club of Brooklyn. The Atlantics were a founding member of baseball’s first organized league, the National Association of Base Ball Players, and reigned as champions from 1859 through 1861, according to Dallas-based Heritage Auction officials. Among the other players depicted on the card is Richard “Dickey” Pearce, who went on to become one of…

MIAMI Ace right-hander Jose Fernandez is unbeaten and perhaps stronger than ever after recovering from elbow surgery. Giancarlo Stanton remains one of baseball’s top power hitters. Dee Gordon is among the game’s leaders in batting average and stolen bases. Adeiny Hechavarria has become an All-Star shortstop. And the Miami Marlins are still in the midst of a disastrous season. ”We need more,” Marlins president of baseball operations Michael Hill said….

By John Montone, 1010 WINS Every kid who grew up loving baseball in the 1960’s knew this; Mickey Mantle won the Triple Crown in 1956 with 52 Home Runs, 130 RBIs and a .353 batting average.  But what was The Mick’s WAR? As a grumpy old baseball fan who’s getting grumpier by the day, I probably should have stopped reading the statistical analysis of the Troy Tulowitzki-Jose Reyes trade as…

The trade deadline, already one of the most exciting and unpredictable in history, received quite a jolt Wednesday with the news that the Tigers will indeed listen to offers for David Price, one of the best pitchers on the planet. The Dodgers, who have been frequently tied to Price thanks to the obvious connection the lefty has with the club’s new baseball president Andrew Friedman, are joined in the derby…

From the time they arrived from Montreal before the 2005 season, the Nationals have been a mainstay in the Washington, D.C., sports scene. But the Nats are also very active in the community, working diligently over the past decade to touch the lives of many in the region and proving that baseball has a further reach than wins and losses, balls and strikes, batters and pitchers. Each Thursday through mid-August,…

With two day games on the MLB schedule Thursday, Max Scherzer is a must-start for DraftKings daily fantasy players who have only four pitchers to chose from in the afternoon contests.  The difficulty lies in filling out a roster around him. In the evening, 22 teams are in action, allowing for a wide variety of potential lineup selections. Whether you’re competing during the day, at night, or both, here are…

And, meanwhile, we’re all still waiting for that A’s-Tigers American League Championship Series to begin. It’s quite possible that no subject in sports receives more unrequited hype than baseball’s trading deadline, which is quite a statement, yes, seeing how much effort was put into documenting the NFL career of Tim Tebow. A year ago this week, everyone was convinced Oakland and Detroit – based on the…
