The best of the best who made their MLB debuts this season (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are the rookies who get their feet wet in one season and then have a fuller Major League experience the next, with their rookie status still technically intact. And then there are the rookies whose debut year is, in fact, their actual rookie year. Only half of the Rookies of the Year this decade have been players whose rookie year was their actual debut year. It’s a difficult thing to succeed in that first exposure to the big leagues, so we’re going to salute the members of this year’s dee
Underselling? Overselling? Let's break down World Series odds (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As of Friday morning, FanGraphs’ playoff odds were giving the Dodgers a 28.6% chance of winning the World Series -- more than double the odds of any other MLB team. This begs an interesting question: Really??! Don’t get it twisted. The Dodgers should absolutely be the favorites to win the World Series. They have the deepest and highest-ceiling roster of any MLB team. It’s just that 28.6% odds are astronomically high for MLB. A year ago, through the same number of games, the Dodgers’ odds were at
How a pitching machine is revolutionizing baseball (opens the original)
Read excerpt
MISSISSAUGA, Ont. -- The war on modern pitching is being waged in the batter’s box, in the video rooms, in the hearts and minds of flummoxed hitters and, more and more, in a single-story commercial strip building in suburban Toronto.

The data-driven pitching robot made by Trajekt and used by nearly every MLB

Read excerpt
Every time we think we have baseball even remotely figured out, it taps its head to issue a challenge to our assumptions. As usual, we’ve had A Bunch of Surprises (ABS) in this 2026 MLB season, so let’s review (are you picking up on this lame gag yet?) a dozen of the biggest here. The Sox skipped that step where you have an incrementally better bridge year in between 100 losses and playoff contention. They went right to the hard launch of an October-ready unit, and it’s been a blast to watch the
Lefty batters are dominating in 2026. Here’s why (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Baseball has always been the respite for lefties who get a raw deal in real life. Scissors, power tools and spiral notebooks might conspire against them, but not the design of our beautiful game. Here, left-handed hitters have a headstart to first base, a visual advantage against the majority of pitchers and even that short porch at Yankee Stadium. But rarely have lefties taken advantage of this advantage quite the way they are here in 2026. A southpaw surge has been one of the defining elements
