Hanser Alberto Isn't On Dodgers' NLDS Roster

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Hanser Alberto isn't on the team's roster for their National League Division Series matchup with the San Diego Padres.

Matt Carpenter Makes ALDS Roster

New York Yankees infielder Matt Carpenter (foot) is on the team's roster for the American League Division Series this week against the Cleveland Guardians. Carpenter hasn't played for the Yankees since fracturing his left foot on Aug. 8, but he'll give the team a strong left-handed power bat for their first postseason series. It's unlikely […]

Billy Eppler's, Buck Showalter's Jobs Are Safe

New York Mets general manager Billy Eppler's and manager Buck Showalter's jobs are safe, according to a high-ranking team source. The Mets may still look to hire a president of baseball operations, but that's considered a long-term initiative that doesn't necessarily need to be implemented this offseason. The Mets blew a 10 1/2-game lead in […]

Phillies Sign Manager Rob Thomson To Two-Year Deal

The Philadelphia Phillies signed manager Rob Thomson to a two-year contract for the 2023 and 2024 seasons on Monday, according to president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski.

Juan Yepez In Starting Lineup After Pinch-Hit Homer

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder/third baseman Juan Yepez is in the starting lineup Saturday, batting sixth and playing right field. Yepez is in for Dylan Carlson, in what is probably a case of playing the hot hand. Yepez had a clutch pinch-hit, two-out, two-run home run in game one to put the Cardinals up, and manager […]

Jose Ramirez Hits Game-Winning Home Run Friday

Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez was the only source of offense for his club in Game 1 of the Wild-Card round on Friday, going 2-for-4 with a two-run home run.

Royals Fire Manager Mike Matheny

The Kansas City Royals fired manager Mike Matheny and pitching coach Cal Eldred following the regular season finale on Wednesday. The Royals finished the 2022 season 65-97.

New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that he expects infielder Matt Carpenter (foot) "to be on the roster" for the American League Division Series, which starts next Tuesday, Oct. 11.

The news comes on the final day of the 2022 regular season, and the Angels will miss the postseason for the eighth straight year. Nevin became the interim manager earlier this year when […]
