The Nationals have one of the best lineups in MLB. They might get even better
CINCINNATI — Daylen Lile jogged around the bases for the second time in as many innings on Tuesday night and scanned the scene at Great American Ballpark. Out in the stands, he saw almost 80 people who had traveled from his hometown of Louisville to watch him play. In the dugout, he saw one of MLB’s best offenses celebrating his achievement.Advertisement
The Vladimir Guerrero Jr. conversation again. Where is the power and dominance?
TORONTO — It’s a frustratingly familiar conversation. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., through the first six weeks of the season, has people scratching their heads.The hits have arrived. The walks are plenty. But the first baseman’s power and his lineup-carrying dominance haven’t yet appeared. Guerrero, through 42 games, is on pace for just eight home runs. His slugging percentage, .377, would be the lowest of his career. In his past 15 games, Guerrero is hitting .204.Advertisement
Making the Miz: How a Missouri JUCO produced a record-breaking flamethrower
Jacob Misiorowski is a mild-mannered hurler of ferocious force, a gangly stick of dynamite who is exploding past previous notions of what is possible for starting pitchers. Even in an age where 100 mph fastballs are norms rather than outliers, he is doing things baseball has never seen before.In his most recent outing, Misiorowski threw 10 pitches at 103 mph or greater. On three occasions his fastball clocked at 103.6 mph, the highest velocity any starter has reached in the Statcast era. New T-s...
What rule changes should MLB make? Our mailbag analyzes your suggestions
Baseball, you may have heard, is a simple game.You throw the ball. You hit the ball. You catch the ball.Yet the rulebook that governs Major League Baseball games runs 57,991 words across a 192-page PDF I highly recommend as bedtime reading. For a simple game, there sure are a lot of rules. For instance, Rule 3.03(h): “Glass buttons and polished metal shall not be used on a uniform.”Advertisement
The Guardians are being patient with Steven Kwan. They need him to be less patient
CLEVELAND — When he steps into the batter’s box and his face pops up on the scoreboard beside a bunch of statistics, Steven Kwan never peeks at those numbers.“Ever,” Kwan said. “(Whether) they’re good or bad.”The numbers are more striking this season, and not just because they’re posted all over the ballpark in 144-point font four or five times each game. More than a quarter of the way into the season, Kwan has yet to find a rhythm at the plate. It’s been an uncharacteristic stretch for a two-ti...
Munetaka Murakami is proving doubters wrong and bringing much-needed joy to the South Side
Much of Munetaka Murakami’s big-league free agency was shrouded in secrecy. Shingo Takatsu — Murakami’s longtime coach, manager and confidant since childhood — knew exactly as much as everyone else: pretty much nothing.He knew the slugger who’d broken Japan’s single-season home run record was determined to play in the United States, and was set to be paid handsomely for that privilege. Beyond that — where he’d go and how much he’d make — was one of the offseason’s most fascinating mysteries.Adve...
PGA Championship 2026 Big Board: Who can stop Scottie Scheffler's repeat bid?
Once upon a time — all the way back in 2018 — the PGA Championship owned the identity as the last of the four majors on the annual schedule. The PGA of America, which presides over this tournament, even leaned into it, offering up the slogan “Glory’s Last Shot.”While it can be argued that the professional golf calendar has been better streamlined over the past eight years, it can also be said that this tournament has suffered a bit of an identity crisis while sandwiched between the Masters and t...
A lockout could derail MLB's significant momentum and needs to be avoided
The Major League Baseball season is already past the quarter mark and the game is as popular as it’s ever been. Yet, there is a cloud hanging over the sport, as it is all but assumed that current negotiations for the next Collective Bargaining Agreement will result in a lockout.There is no way the league and the players’ association should allow it to get to that point. The game is in great shape right now and an interruption to the normal league schedule could derail that momentum.Advertisement

How will the liberal Masai Ujiri handle leading the ultraconservative Dallas Mavericks?
The man who shaped the Raptors’ NBA title has moved to Texas. But his ideals may clash with his new team’s ownershipOn its face, the fit between Masai Ujiri and the Dallas Mavericks is perfect. “It’s almost like a match made in heaven,” Ujiri said after being introduced as the franchise’s president of basketball operations and alternate governor last week. “Every single one of us in this world is chosen for something special, and we just have to find it,” he added. “And I found basketball.”Since...
