It’s only mid-May, but the San Diego Padres appear to have a legitimate shot of winning their first National League West title since 2006. Let that sink in for a second. This was a team whose offseason essentially was the inverse of another talent-acquisition spree by the 22-time NL West champion Los Angeles Dodgers.
The San Francisco Giants and Arizona Diamondbacks might have something to say about this. In the meantime, with a series of non-Colorado Rockies, in-division matchups looming on the horizon, you might have questions. Leave them below, and we’ll answer some in a mailbag later this week.

2025 Fantasy Football Sleepers 1.0 from Jamey Eisenberg: Justin Fields’ legs gives him top-10 upside, and more
USA Today It's time for Round 2 of sleepers for this season, and this is the first edition following free agency and the NFL Draft. Obviously, a lot has changed since Sleepers 1.0 (INSERT LINK HERE), especially with the rookies, and these are players you should plan to target with mid- to late-round picks. Once we get legitimate Average Draft Position data then we can truly define sleepers for this year. For now, these are players that I anticipate being drafted after Round 8 based on mock drafts we've done with our CBS Sports staff, as well as drafts that I've participated in with other analysts for different publications. The outlooks for several of these players could change through minicamps and off-season workouts. And we'll adjust with another version of sleepers during training camp to get you prepared for your […]

Muller define três clubes ameaçados no Brasileirão: “Um dos grandes vai cair”
Muller, comentarista da TV Gazeta (Reprodução) Muller prevê que, em 2025, um dos grandes clubes do Brasileirão será rebaixado. Embora o campeonato esteja no início, o ex-jogador trouxe um aviso para três times fortemente ameaçados pelo Z-4. Inicialmente, Grêmio e Santos, acumulando atuações irregulares nas oito primeiras rodadas, foram incluídos no grupo que podem encarar um cenário melancólico no final do ano. “Um dos grandes vai cair neste ano de novo. Grêmio, Santos… se os times grandes não abrirem o olho. ‘Ah, o campeonato tá começando, eu posso errar’. O Santos só tem uma vitória no campeonato. Essa poupança de derrotas faz falta lá na frente. Tem o critério de desempate de vitórias e saldo de gols.”, disse Muller, no podcast Tá na Área, da Gazeta Esportiva.
