During draft season, I didn’t see writing an early May article about the Arizona Diamondbacks coming. After all, this is a team that had one player with a top-100 ADP (Ketel Marte), two others who barely made the top-150 (Zac Gallen, Mark Melancon) and one other team member who was tabbed inside the top-200 picks (Daulton Varsho). But there are some statistical oddities with the D-backs right now that fantasy managers need to be aware of. Let’s start with pitching. You could guess most of… Source link

Other stuff too. But mostly sports. It’s Friday, March 25, 2022, and here’s what Liz is cookin’ up: The first night of Sweet 16 play in the Men’s NCAA Tournament brought all the drama No. 1 seeds Gonzaga and Arizona were upset by No. 4 Arkansas and No. 5 Houston respectively No. 2 seeds fared much… Source link

Gonzaga, Arizona favored by NBC Sports Chicago ‘experts’ originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago If there’s a sporting event that transcends its own game and league, it’s got to be March Madness, especially the first two days of the men’s NCAA tournament, when even MLB spring training keeps one eye on the basketball being played nonstop on every TV in clubhouses across Arizona and Florida. It’s in that spirit that we interrupt your already previously interrupted 2022 baseball spring… Source link

When Arizona State’s Kimani Lawrence threw down a dunk and got fouled with 3:01 left, the Sun Devils’ Pac-12 tournament game should have been over. At that point, Arizona State led Stanford 69-55 with Lawrence going to the line. Those who bet Arizona State -3.5 at BetMGM were finding other conference tournament games to watch. ASU was a win. Or, it should have been. Arizona State reached a 99.4 percent win probability with three minutes left, according to ESPN. Anyone who didn’t stick around… Source link

Jan 25 (Reuters) – Allegations that Alphabet Inc’s (GOOGL.O) Google deceived users with unclear smartphone location tracking settings should be weighed by a jury, an Arizona judge ruled on Tuesday, refusing to toss out a lawsuit brought by the state’s attorney general. Google had sought summary judgment to get the case against it thrown out at an early stage. It had argued that the state had failed to show that its consumer fraud law could apply and noted that the company’s disclosures about… Source link

With inflation at a near 40-year high, the biggest corporations are cashing in “on the backs of the American people,” by crimping competition and raising prices, said Senator Mark Kelly (D, AZ).

Boise State became the latest team to back out of a bowl game due to COVID-19 cases as the Broncos are unable to play in Friday’s Arizona Bowl against Central Michigan.  Boise State’s inability to play set up an opportunity for Central Michigan to play Washington State in the Sun Bowl.  The Cougars were in need of an opponent to play in El Paso, Texas, on Friday after Miami backed out of the Sun Bowl because of its own COVID cases.  There are many financial reasons for Central Michigan to… Source link

Every great quarterback knows they would be nothing without their offensive line. The men in the trenches who give them the time to set and throw the perfect spiral on the game-winning touchdown deserve a little recognition too, especially around the holidays. Ever since former Miami Dolphins QB Dan Marino famously gifted Isotoner gloves to his teammates in a memorable 1980s commercial, it’s almost become a cliché for the starting QB to at the very minimum give them a gift card to Outback… Source link
