Patriots trade DE Michael Bennett to Cowboys

The Michael Bennett test in New England did not work out as planned. The outspoken defensive end is moving on to the Dallas Cowboys. The Patriots traded Bennett for a seventh-round pick that can improve to a sixth-round selection in 2021, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported. Bennett’s versatility will be a benefit to the Cowboys’ defensive line. It ends a short stint in New England for Bennett, who was suspended one game for conduct detrimental to the team. On Wednesday, Bennett detailed on his one-game suspension, which came from a disagreement with defensive line coach Bret Bielema. “It’s America, you can voice your opinion about certain situations,” Bennett […]

Nationals defeat Astros again to take a 2-0 lead of World Series

The tension mounted in Minute Maid Park with each pitch to the pinch-hitting rookie with two aboard in the sixth inning of a tied Game 2 on Wednesday night. Kyle Tucker fought off Stephen Strasburg’s most onerous offerings and slowly worked the count full, with the Astros faithful waving their orange towels in anticipation of a magic moment. Then the kid watched a high curveball dive into the upper reaches of the strike zone for the inning-ending strike three. Instants later, a leadoff rocket off the bat of Kurt Suzuki just one pitch into the seventh sparked the ruthless six-run frame that included a rare intentional walk and […]

Ross, currently an analyst for ESPN and a special adviser with the Cubs, has been considered as the betting favorite for the position ever since Joe Maddon was allowed to leave the club after the 2019 season. Ross retired in […]

Patriots acquire WR Mohamed Sanu from Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons are trading wide receiver Mohamed Sanu to the New England Patriots in exchange for a second-round pick according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Schefter stated that the Patriots have been attempting to trade for Sanu dating back to the 2019 NFL Draft. Sanu, 30, has 33 receptions for 313 yards and a touchdown this season. The Falcons were loaded at the position with Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley and others so Sanu became replaceable. Atlanta (1-6) has apparently chosen to be sellers at the NFL trade deadline.

Nationals against Astros for World Series 2019

The 2019 World Series is set: The Houston Astros will face the Washington Nationals for the Commissioner’s Trophy to close out the postseason. Both teams have highly touted starting pitching, but they took different October roads to reach the Fall Classic. Washington had to come from behind to win the Wild Card Game over the Brewers on Oct. 1. The Nationals then won the final two games of the NLDS to upset the top-seeded Dodgers before sweeping the NL Central-winning Cardinals to get the World Series. It was a more straightforward road for the Astros. Houston had baseball’s best record in the regular season, going 107-55. The Astros won the […]
