Pete Crow Armstrong has generated more win probability added (WPA) hitting this season (5.6) than Shohei Ohtani has hitting (3.1) and pitching (2.2) combined (5.3).

The cost of being a sports fan keeps climbing.

Streaming paywalls, ticket prices, $17 beers, $50 parking, merch quality dropping, gambling ads everywhere and now teams partnering with prediction markets.

Sports are treating fans like an ATM. At what point is enough, enough?

RIP Robert Redford, whose portrayal of Roy Hobbs in "The Natural" remains one of the greatest performances in the history of baseball movies.

Full. Body. Chills. Every. Time.

If there was a Mount Rushmore of National Anthem singers, it’d just be Jim Cornelison’s face four times

Friendly reminder this man donated $1,000 to all 191 Rangers minor leaguers when the pandemic hit and MLB clubs weren’t paying their farmhands.

Tyler Bertuzzi is only 760 goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s goal record,

Does he do it tonight ??

Frank Seravalli on Chicago,

“The back end of that team, no joke, is an embarrassment of riches…

Rinzel is turning pro, He’ll be playing games for the Hawks this year.

With Rinzel, Vlasic, who’s unreal, then you add Levshunov…

You’ve got 3 STUD defensemen.”

[Greg Boysen @GregBoysen]

In the first 57 games of the season, Connor Bedard has had 36 different line combinations. This is a HUGE problem that must be fixed this summer.

[CHGO Blackhawks @CHGO_Blackhawks]

Tonight will be Frank Pellico’s last night as United Center organist. He’s been with the team since 1991. Carrie Marcotte, who has partnered with Frank since the 2018-19 season, will take over full time.

Best of luck to a Chicago legend.

heartbreaking news for Anthony Rendon

Like, this is insane. Who wants this?

@JonHeyman Hey @MLB, if you’re so against betting then stop promoting it

[CJ Christianson @ColeJacob23]

@ChicagoEggspay @chrisfricano_ @CHGO_Blackhawks Not quite sure what your point is here. Toews and Kane ENDED that rebuild, they didn’t start it. You can start to see how many years in the making it actually was in this killer thread by @BornOnThirdCubs

[Ben Pope @BenPopeCST]

I think I need to start tweeting this every week:

There are two (2) players Kyle Davidson drafted that are currently in the NHL: Connor Bedard and Frank Nazar. That’s it.

There are 28 players he drafted developing in the pipeline. That number will be 37 after this year’s draft.

The awfulness of this 2024-25 Blackhawks team indicates nothing about how successful the rebuild will be.

@DiecastReviews @sportshashhash @BenPopeCST 6/6 are reasons to quit being so miserable. Lighten up chief Kyle Davidson can’t hurt you

[CJ Christianson @ColeJacob23]

@DiecastReviews @sportshashhash @BenPopeCST Bedard, Levshunov, korchinski, Nazar, Moore, Rinzel.

#Blackhawks fans: consistent winning is built through the draft.

The Hawks core during the dynasty years was built through the draft.

Tampa’s core Cup teams were built through the draft.

It takes time.
Nashville tried to build through Free agency, they are 3 points better
