A day off and a trade couldn't have come at a better time for the Cubs, a chance to lick their wounds and hope for better things. And, oh, those wounds are large after Sunday's 13-6 drubbing by Arizona that wasn't nearly as close as the score indicated...

In the end, they don't ask how, just how many. So though the Cubs' 4-3 victory over Arizona on Friday will not be remembered as one of baseball's classic come-from-behind, last-inning triumphs, it was their fifth win in the last seven games in their...

Hey everyone! Katie Strang here for blogging today. Hope you all have had time to recover from last night's extra-innings 2-1 loss. That's three straight 2-1 losses out in San Diego for the Mets, who have now fallen below .500.......

Hi all. Sorry for the delay. We'll get started. Top of 1st: 1-2-3 inning for Cha Seung Baek. Bottom of 1st: A two-out double for Brian Giles. But that's it. Top of 2nd: The Mets got a sacrifice fly by......

Wait a minute. Now the Mets have to worry about Billy Wagner? If not for Carlos Beltran's walkoff home run last night, we'd all be writing the Mets' obituary today, and it would fall squarely on the shoulders of Wagner,......

Here's the lineup, as well as words from Chien-Ming Wang on his injury and thoughts from the Yankees on Willie Randolph being fired. Dan Giese will get the start Saturday in Wang's place. Billy Traber was called up. Chien-Ming Wang......

Hey everyone! Adam Ronis here live at Yankee Stadium. Could this be an audition tonight? With Chien-Ming Wang out for an extended period of time, the rumors are floating around about what pitcher the Yankees will acquire. Randy Wolf is......

Yankees (38-33) vs. Padres (31-41) Jake Peavy (5-3, 2.64) vs. Darrel Rasner (3-4, 3.64) The Yankees are riding a five-game winning streak and have seen the bats come to life of late. Today they face one of the NL's best......

Howdy. Rod Boone here and you there. We are about ready for the finale of the three-game set with the Padres. The Yankees go for win No. 7 in a row today and will attempt to match their longest win......

"Never before on any screen!" "Stranger than you dared imagine!" "Parents, warn your children! It's ... Old People in Love!" No, this is definitely not the advertising campaign for Paul Cox's supergenteel "Innocence," but given how infrequently its...

If it's not broken, don't fix it. Who could begrudge Anaheim Angels general manager Bill Stoneman a restful winter? After all, the Angels' ultraimpressive run through the playoffs should not be viewed as the doing of the Rally Monkey or any other Disney-...

Nice day, if a bit chilly, here in Chicago and I have no idea what it's like in Arizona, where the Cubs are opening their season today at 4 p.m. CDT. Let's go out on a limb and say it's sunny, 80 degrees with few, if any, clouds in the sky. Updates when I...
