Could The Royals Send Eric Hosmer To The Minors?
Coming into the season, quite a few people had the Kansas City Royals as a team set to make some noise in the American League Central. A big reason for that was the expected breakout year for Eric Hosmer. The big prospect had a very solid year in 2011, his first year in the Major [...]
LA Kings: Dustin Penner Is No Longer The Punchline
Earlier this season, Dustin Penner was the joke of the National Hockey League. Stuck under a big pile of pancakes, figuratively and kind of literally, many wondered if there was even a place for him with the Los Angeles Kings. Now, in the third round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, as the Kings meet the [...]
Will The Blackhawks Re-Sign Defenseman Johnny Oduya?
There are few things associated with the Chicago Blackhawks that are more frustrating to discuss than team defense. “Good” would not be a word anyone would use to describe the blue line. “Mediocre”, “just okay”, “shaky”, and “abysmal” all would have fit the bill at one time or another in 2011-2012. Brent Seabrook was really [...]
Anthony Rizzo Nearing Call To Chicago Cubs
It’s only the middle of May, but this Chicago Cubs team has been a bit mroe exciting to watch than many expected them to be. If it wasn’t for an abysmal bullpen, they’d actually be a pretty decent ballclub, at least in terms of their record. In fact, they may actually have an All Star [...]

At times, they looked dead in the water and performed nowhere near the level that they were [...]

For the Coyotes, they are in danger of seeing their surprising postseason run come to an abrupt and ugly end. Three players are potentially facing some sort of discipline from the NHL, and [...]
Will Coyotes Receive Any Discipline For Game 2 Antics?
The Phoenix Coyotes have had a rough go of things in this series after having put together a pair of very successful series in these Stanley Cup Playoffs. The past two games have seen some of the luster fall off of their surprising postseason run, with the Los Angeles Kings jumping out to a convincing [...]
Should The Kings Be Favored In Stanley Cup Playoff Matchup Vs. Coyotes?
After what seems like weeks since they last played, the Los Angeles Kings and Phoenix Coyotes will finally meet in their unlikely Western Conference Finals matchup starting on Sunday. Both teams head into this series having been underdogs in their previous two series in this year’s Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Coyotes knocked off the Chicago Blackhawks [...]
Chicago Cubs: Is Kerry Wood Completely Healthy?
Despite the day or two where it looked like he could jump ship to a contender, there wasn’t much doubt that Kerry Wood would be back with the Chicago Cubs in 2012. That doesn’t mean everyone was entirely pleased about it, though. While a big majority of fans were happy to see Kid K return for [...]
