April 10, 2017By Patrick Moran

It’s hardly realistic to appraise a player’s fantasy value after just one week and six games, but it’s enough for at least a small sample size. Here’s a look at how the New York Yankees are doing fantasy-wise early on. Rankings are from Yahoo and based on six offensive categories (runs, home runs, RBI, steals, … Read More

Where Sabres Stand With Draft Lottery Odds

April 10, 2017By Patrick Moran

When it comes to missing the playoffs, the Buffalo Sabres are geniuses. After being absent from postseason play six consecutive seasons and running, fans are far more accustomed to rooting for the draft lottery success than any playoff series.  For fans forever embroiled in tanking saw losing to both the Panthers and Lightning over the … Read More

Lightning 4, Sabres 2 #BlysmaWatch

April 9, 2017By Patrick Moran

The Buffalo Sabres ended their season Sunday with a 4-2 loss to the Tampa Lightning at the Amalie Arena. I’d sneak in more insight but honestly I probably didn’t watch eight minutes of game action, thanks to the combination of a thrilling Masters final round and overall sentiment of being appalled with this team’s performance … Read More

Yanks 7, Orioles 3 #AvoidTheSweep

April 9, 2017By Patrick Moran

♦After blowing leads the previous two games, the New York Yankees finally gave Baltimore a taste of their own medicine.

Panthers 3, Sabres 0 #PleaseMakeItStop

April 9, 2017By Patrick Moran

The Buffalo Sabres wrap up the regular season Sunday in Tampa Bay… Thank God. You can spin it anyway you want but the Sabres went through the motions in Miami Saturday and got exactly what they deserved, a 3-0 shutout loss to the Florida Panthers.  If you’re a fan of the never-ending tank the result’s … Read More

Orioles 5, Yanks 4 #LosingGameAndSanchez

April 8, 2017By Patrick Moran

It’s getting ugly rather quickly, folks. The New York Yankees are developing a knack for blowing leads.  For a second consecutive game in Baltimore the Yanks got up comfortably early, saw the gap close and ultimately blew the lead (and game) in the seventh inning.  This time it was a 4-1 margin that went up … Read More

Orioles 6, Yanks 5 #BlowingTheLead

The Yankees blew a 5-1 lead in Camden Yards Friday night in falling to the Orioles, 6-5 and have now lost three of their first four to open the season. Home runs by Matt Holiday and Gary Sanchez staked the Yanks out to a four run lead going into the bottom of the fifth, but … Read More
