Brewers right-hander Abner Uribe continued his rehab assignment with the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers on Friday night, but there was a twist: Uribe didn’t actually wear a Timber Rattlers uniform. This weekend, Milwaukee’s High-A affiliate is rebranding as the Wisconsin Brats, honoring German heritage with a special two-day “Bratoberfest” celebration. So,

Nolan McLean, the prized right-hander known for generating outlier horizontal movement and spinning the baseball at absurd levels, has lost his sweeper.

Kodai Senga has the stuff -- and maybe even the moxie -- to succeed as a late-game leverage reliever for the Mets. Did anyone have that on their bingo card? Senga carried a 9.09 ERA and an 0-7 record into July, having allowed more earned runs (33) than innings pitched

The cycle is a feat that proves baseball doesn't discriminate. Any type of hitter can accomplish it. We've seen little guys muscle up for home runs, lumbering catchers leg out triples, power hitters reach on singles that don't get out of the infield. There's no secret formula to a cycle,

Turn on a Mets game these days, and it sure feels like Carson Benge is always in the middle of something. Between pulchritudinous catches in right field and a string of jaw-dropping outfield assists, the 23-year-old is making a rather compelling National League Rookie of the Year case. Benge's emergence

Cubs infielder Matt Shaw began a Minor League rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday night, going 1-for-3 while playing five innings at second base in a 2-1 loss against Toledo. Shaw landed on the 10-day Injured List on June 29 with a left-hand sprain that he suffered while fouling

These days, pitching sure feels like it's defined by velocity, which continues to tick up. But there's a small group of pitchers who don't rely on velo at all. They play baseball like it was first designed to be played. In 1845, the New York Knickerbocker Base Ball Club spelled

Jordan Lawlar is due to play at least a few more games with Double-A Amarillo as he continues his rehab assignment. But the 2021 first-round Draft pick sure is swinging the bat like he’s ready to return to the Majors. The D-backs center fielder, sidelined since mid-June with a right

Veteran right-hander Joe Musgrove stretched out to 70 pitches across 4 2/3 innings in his third rehab start on Friday night for

Gavin Williams just recorded one of the most dominant five-game stretches by a starting pitcher in MLB history. The Guardians right-hander struck out 55 hitters in a five-start span from July 9 through Aug. 2.

Did you miss any of the moves that happened at this year’s Trade Deadline? If you did, we don’t blame you -- a lot happened. Thankfully, though, you’re in luck.

Which starting rotation is poised to dominate October? That's the sort of question that we will spend the next several weeks pondering as each day draws us closer to the return of postseason baseball. We saw just last year how a stalwart rotation can carry a team to postseason glory.
