CHICAGO — The Cubs have apparently decided that if Pete Crow-Armstrong isn't already the obvious choice for NL MVP, they’ll simply turn him into Shohei Ohtani. Per Jeff Passan, Chicago reportedly plans to begin working out Crow-Armstrong as a pitcher with the goal of developing its superstar center fielder into a two-way player. PCA is set to begin throwing bullpen sessions immediately and could potentially make an appearance out of the Cubs bullpen within the next couple wee

BRONX, NY — New York Yankees franchise icon Giancarlos Stanton has officially retired from professional baseball after 19 seasons, bringing an end to one of the most powerful — and medically eventful — careers in recent MLB history. FAX Sports reporter Holly Baylor first reported that Stanton planned to retire at the conclusion of the 2026 season after the 36-year-old suffered a moderate-grade left calf strain while running the bases during a rehab drill. Stanton had been reh

LOS ANGELES — Historians are calling it the shortest postseason in baseball history. Just hours after the Los Angeles Dodgers acquired two-time Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal from the Detroit Tigers in exchange for Zyhir Hope, River Ryan, and Brady Smith, Major League Baseball reportedly skipped the remaining regular season, postseason, and World Series altogether before officially declaring the Dodgers the 2026 World Series champions.

LOS ANGELES — Just days after lifting the 2026 FIFA World Cup trophy, Spain has reportedly agreed to the largest transaction in sports history, with the Los Angeles Dodgers acquiring the entire Spain national soccer team on a 19-year, $410 billion contract with every dollar deferred, according to multiple reports, including Fax Sports insider Holly Baylor.

QUEENS, NY — Just hours after Team USA's 4-1 World Cup elimination at the hands of Belgium, the New York Mest reportedly decided they had seen enough. According to Fax Sports insiders Holly Baylor and Tom Dung, the Mest have acquired the entire United States men's national soccer team in exchange for closer Devin Williams and pitcher Sean Manaea.

KENOSHA, WI - Just days after the Chicago Bears announced they’re packing up and heading across the state line to Hammond, Indiana, the Chicago Cubs have dropped the mother of all announcements: they’re formally moving ahead with a massive new domed stadium and mixed-use development in Kenosha, Wisconsin. That’s right. The same franchise that’s called Wrigley Field home since 1916 just voted “yes” on leaving the Friendly Confines behind for a shiny new Cubs Dome up north. Loo

ANAHEIM, CA — The Angels officially unveiled their new City Connect uniforms Wednesday morning, featuring a revolutionary redesign that keeps the entire current uniform exactly the same, except players now wear a white bicycle helmet instead of a baseball cap. The announcement comes one day after Angels outfielder Jo Adell attempted to make a running catch against the Colorado Rockies at Angel Stadium, but instead, a fly ball ricocheted off his head, bounced over the fence, a

WASHINGTON, D.C. - According to multiple reports, including Fax Sports insider Holly Baylor, San Diego Padres superstar Francisco Tatis Jr. has been suspended 162 games for violating MLB’s PED policy, effective immediately. Tatis tested positive for Nandrolone Decanoate — a banned anabolic steroid — in a random test conducted right in the Padres dugout moments after he crushed his first home run of the 2026 season against the Washington Nationals on Saturday, May 30th. This

SAN JUAN, PR - What started as a bizarre report linking Dodgers closer Edwin Diaz to cockfighting events in Puerto Rico somehow escalated even further Friday morning — and now the focus has completely shifted to Diaz’s inner circle. Earlier today, a viral USA Today investigation alleged that Diaz had been connected to multiple cockfighting events on the island through social media posts, promotional appearances and local interviews. The report referenced photos and event adve

BRONX - The New York Yankees are making an unprecedented in-season adjustment after second baseman Chazz Jizzums was formally banned from issuing ABS (Automated Ball-Strike) challenges for the remainder of the 2026 season, league sources confirmed early Saturday morning. Jizzums, who opened the year with a staggering 1-for-67 success rate on challenges, had become a nightly subplot across the league—frequently halting games to contest pitches that, more often than not, weren’

ATLANTA — In the most insane sports crossover of 2026, the Atlanta Falcons have officially signed Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss to a two-year contract worth $8.5 million (with $2 million in performance bonuses tied to tackles and sacks) to play linebacker. The deal was fast-tracked after Walt Weiss dropped Angels slugger Jorge Soler with a perfect form tackle straight out of an NFL film room during a benches-clearing brawl at Angel Stadium Tuesday night. Here’s how it wen

QUEENS - In what may already be the most chaotic storyline of Opening Day, a report from TMZ has sent shockwaves through both clubhouses and timelines alike: social media influencer Livvy Dunne was allegedly seen Snapchatting New York Mest third baseman Brent Baty during the game—just moments after he ripped a go-ahead three-run triple off her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes. Yes, that actually happened. According to multiple fans sitting behind home plate scrol

SEATTLE – The Seattle Mariners just flushed away any doubts that their ballpark menu was getting boring. Today the team officially announced the “Big Dumper Sundae,” a chocolate soft-serve masterpiece served in a mini toilet bowl complete with hot fudge “flush,” chocolate wafer “logs,” and a complimentary roll of T-Mobile Park toilet paper napkins on the side. Yes, really. We saw the picture. We’re still processing. According to team officials, the reasoning was simple: “Cal

NEW YORK — In a development somehow both shocking and entirely predictable, the New York Mest were officially eliminated from the 2026 MLB Postseason yesterday — on December 10, 2025 — a full 108 days before Opening Day. MLB historians have already labeled it the earliest playoff elimination in league history, but league officials insist the math “checks out,” citing catastrophic vibes, irreversible roster decisions, and something called “Mesting momentum.” The death blow cam

Anaheim, CA — The Los Angeles Angels announced late Tuesday that third baseman Anthony Rendon has suffered a spinal fracture while attempting to lift a frozen Thanksgiving turkey at a local Albertsons—an outcome that team officials described as “unfortunate, yet somehow the least surprising thing to ever happen to this franchise.” According to witnesses, Rendon bent down, reached for a 12-pound Butterball, lifted approximately three inches off the freezer shelf, then immedia

BREAKING — In a move so shocking it actually made Padres fans nostalgic for the Eric Hosmer contract, the Los Angeles Dodgers have reportedly reached an agreement to buy the entire San Diego Padres , according to multiple reports including Holly Baylor, who broke the news after spotting Andrew Friedman browsing Petco Park on Zillow. Yes, the Padres — a real Major League Baseball franchise with real players, real uniforms, and real bankruptcy-level payroll spending — will now

CANCUN — The Houston Astros did the funniest two-step in sports today: out of October, straight into Cancun. With the Cleveland Guardians beating the Texas Rangers earlier this afternoon, Houston was officially eliminated from the MLB postseason. Minutes later, Fax Sports reporter Tom Dung broke the news we were all waiting for: the Astros have clinched the #6 seed in the 2025 Cancun Playoffs, where all games will be held inside the Cancun Dome—air-conditioned, domed, and s
