Fantasy Baseball: Buy or sell surprising starts from Pete Crow-Armstrong, Paul Skenes, and more
We're through the first month of the season, and that feels like a good opportunity to look back on what has happened in Fantasy Baseball and try to figure out what it means for the rest of the season. You might be inclined to believe that what has happened so far will have a lot of bearing on what is to come, but history suggests that's probably a mistake. On this date last season, for example, the Royals' surprise breakout was already happening – they were 21-15 and tied for first place in the AL Central. But there were plenty of flukes, too – most notably, the 12-22 Astros, who would still manage to recover and win the AL West again. On the player side, Shohei Ohtani was already leading the majors in wOBA at .491, a precursor to his historic season […]
Palmeiras encara Cerro Porteño buscando garantir vaga nas oitavas de final da Libertadores

Akron handed 2025 bowl ban: Zips flunk out of postseason after failing to meet NCAA academic standards
Getty Images Akron fans haven't been able to enjoy a bowl game featuring their team since 2017, when Terry Bowden led the program to the postseason. Unfortunately for Zips fans, the FBS' fourth-longest bowl drought will continue until at least 2026. The Zips have been handed a postseason ban for the 2025 season after posting a failing Academic Progress Rate score for 2023-24. Akron football posted a 914 multi-year APR score, below the 930 threshold required to remain eligible for postseason competition. The APR measurement is built to calculate how effectively universities keep their athletes on track to stay eligible and graduate academically. Akron was handed practice reductions during the 2024 season as an initial punishment for poor APR, but failing to reach the mark in consecutive seasons led to the postseason ban. The Zips posted just a 920 APR for the […]
Kristaps Porzingis update: Celtics star day-to-day with illness related to absence earlier in season
Getty Images Boston Celtics star Kristaps Porzingis is day-to-day with an illness, coach Joe Mazzulla told reporters on Tuesday. It's unclear if Porzingis, who did not play in the second half of the team's stunning Game 1 loss to the New York Knicks, will be ready for Game 2 on Wednesday. Notably, Mazzulla said that Porzingis' current situation is related to the mysterious illness that kept him out of eight consecutive games in late February and early March. During that period, Porzingis was on the bench with the team during games and working out at the facility, but was unable to play."I have been dealing with some viral illness that we haven't been able to fully identify yet," Porzingis wrote on social media on March 10, a few days before his return. "I am recovering and getting better, but I am still working […]
