From the @sheehannewsletter.bsky.social - which was written on Friday: "The more I look at this Dodgers pen, the more I think Klein and Wrobleski, who have combined for zero playoff innings this year, are two of their best options, along with Roki Sasaki." You should subscribe: www.joesheehan.com

@qbklass.bsky.social Just wanted to say I loved the "Dance, Dance Revolution" line about Justin Fields on the recap podcast. Keep up the great work!

No truth to the rumor that Dave Rozema is warming up in the pen for the #Tigers. Let's play name-a-guy!

I miss "weird baseball." (h/t Kevin Goldstein. I also miss seeing Kevin Goldstein on social media, but that's another story.)

So nice to see an extra-inning game without the "stupid runner." (h/t @sheehannewsletter.bsky.social)

Christian McCaffrey, ONLY the receiver, would rank as WR9 with 58.0 half-PPR points His current pace (last year ranks at WR) 183 targets (1st) 132 receptions (1st) 1,296 yards (3rd) 8.5 touchdowns (12th-ish) 246.6 points (4th)

TUESDAY POD LET'S GO It's more W4 game film review including the gruesome Tyreek Hill injury... ...and then @jeff-erickson.bsky.social joins to sort through an eventful Week 5 waiver wire! Gotta listen! Let's go! (link is 👇)

I'm not sure what it closed at, but on Thursday the Bengals' team total was 17.5. But I'm sure it'll be fine next week against ... (checks notes) the Lions. Ok, well maybe it'll be better in Week 6 - against the Packers coming off a bye!

Posted this on the other place at halftime, but: I'm not saying that the Bengals should leave Zac Taylor behind in Denver, but I'm also not, not saying that the Bengals should leave Zac Taylor behind in Denver.

Francona said after Greene starts game 1 vs LA, the #reds will start Littell in game 2 and Abbott in Game 3 if needed.

Yeah, Joe Burrow is hurt, the Bengals are using their fourth right guard, they didn't sign any significant improvements in free agency on the defense, but at least we know they're well-coached and won't commit any soul-killing penalties.

I'm doing some early research for my first MLB keeper deadline for 2026 - Christian Yelich only played 19 games in the outfield this season. Luckily this league only requires 15 games there to qualify, but just be aware of his DH status in other leagues.

The Reds are a terriifying draw in a best-of-three.

It's only appropriate that #OurReds backed into the playoffs, but I'll take it!

TJ Friedl, you amazing beautiful human!!!

Is it happening?

Let's Gooooooooooooooo!!!! #Reds

"European Analytics," or a basic simple fact? You decide!

Does anyone know where Sam Burns ranks on the PGA Tour in putting? I feel like that hasn't been part of the dialogue this weekend.

Feels both possible and impossible.

Man, Crystal Palace really seems to be Liverpool's kryptonite. Sort of like how analytics seems to be the U.S. Ryder Cup team's kryptonite.

Wow, that was a *really* late flag in TCU-ASU.

I haven't posted in a while here, but wanted to drop in to express my joy in watching meaningful September baseball over the final weekend of the season. I reserve the right to change this opinion if/when my heart gets ripped out on Sunday.

I'm psyched that @andybehrens.bsky.social is joining me on the @rotowire.bsky.social NFL podcast in 30 minutes, as we discuss Week 3 rankings and his new venture, thedeepshot.com. Come join us! www.youtube.com/live/nve3nRZ...

If you're driving around today, catch up on the pod: T - Brandon Funston W - @andybehrens.bsky.social Th - @jaketrowbridge.bsky.social F - @jeff-erickson.bsky.social Also had Huggy Awards, insane mixtapes, stress farts, snarkbag and review of #DALvsPHI

Friday podcast! I'll review everything that happened on Thursday night in the #DALvsPHI game, we'll talk W1 injury news... ...and then @jeff-erickson.bsky.social will join and we'll channel our inner-Cousin-Josh and discuss five things that are FREAKING US OUT before W1! (link is 👇)

Knowing what you know now about Rashee Rice's suspension, would you rather roster him in a redraft league or a best ball league? And what do you think is the appropriate price? We'll presume it's a PPR league for the sake of discussion.

Looking forward to hosting today's "Prop Points" show on VSiN with @jimcoventrynfl.bsky.social, and great friend @sheehannewsletter.bsky.social joining us for a segment. Hopefully you can tune in!

Hola from Madrid!

Just a horrendous first half for the Pacers. If you're the Knicks, this couldn't have gone better. Tempo in their favor, Turner in foul trouble, Brunson & KAT played great at times when the other was resting, good minutes from Shamet. Haliburton completely shut down.

Yordan Alvarez said he’ll face live pitching tomorrow, presumably some minor-league guys the Astros bring to Daikin Park. If that goes well, his return could be imminent.

The dumbest part of NBA TV ratings takes is that the NBA already signed the long TV deal, so it means literally nothing. Enjoy sports. Don't be a weirdo.

TOOTBLAN'ing away, TOOTBLAN'ing away, the closer the Reds get, the more they're TOOTBLAN'ing away.

"He said, 'Leave me alone, I'm a Family Man, and my bark is much worse than my bite.'"

Of course, the "Paste-Eaters" are signing Orlando Arcia. Why wouldn't they want another 30-year old middle infielder?

Edwin Uceta last year: 1.51 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, 35.8 K%, 5.0 BB% Edwin Uceta this year: 5.40 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, 18.9 K%, 10.5 BB% Relievers, man.

Say I'm the only bee in your bonnet. Make a little Birdsong in your soul!

Just came up slightly short as the second-highest bidder on Cade Horton in the Mixed #LABR league - I bid $13/100, @mikegianella.bsky.social got him for $28. But I'll always have that Cam Smith overbid to start the season at least!
