SAN FRANCISCO -- You’ll excuse Sean Doolittle for not seeing “The Mandalorian and Grogu” yet. He may be one of the most vocal Star Wars fans to ever grace a pitching mound, but he’s too busy writing charts and conducting meetings these days. The retired 11-year Major Leaguer spends his

What’s been the secret sauce behind the Nationals’ strong start so far in 2026? It’s simple: Offense.

SAN FRANCISCO -- The Giants will be without the services of right-hander José Buttó for the foreseeable future, as he was placed on the 15-day injured list with right arm fatigue on Thursday. The 28-year-old exited Wednesday’s loss to the Padres in San Diego with what the team initially called
