The Eagles are in the Super Bowl for the second time in three years, but it’s hard to envision a more circuitous route for a team to have so much success in a short period of time. 

The Rangers are bringing in an old friend.

Pete Alonso’s long free agency has taken him almost to February without a new deal, and it certainly seems like rejecting the extension the Mets offered in 2023 was a costly mistake.

Karl-Anthony Towns hasn’t recovered from his thumb injury, but he is adjusting to life with it. 

It was no easy feat.

They aren’t letting the Hurricanes’ potential improvement affect them. 

There was never a doubt that the Yankees — like everyone else in baseball — wanted Roki Sasaki. 

The move still allows Braden Schneider to be a key factor, since he can play on both sides.

The Rangers made a minor trade Saturday.

What the Rangers did in Thursday’s win over the Flyers was something they hadn’t accomplished since 2019.

By New Year’s Eve, the Rangers had lost 15 of 19, as well as their last four games. 

Jesse Winker is back with the Mets on a one-year deal worth up to $9 million.

It may be a while, at least by recent standards, before any more Yankees join CC Sabathia in Cooperstown.

Mariano Rivera may soon have some company. 

If Sabathia and Beltran get in, it could be the first time players identified as Yankees and Mets on their Hall of Fame plaques are enshrined in the same year.

Mika Zibanejad was a factor throughout the game and impressed Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette, even if it didn’t result in any offense.

Even on a night when their offense was nearly non-existent, the Rangers’ continued their recent winning ways. Thanks to Igor Shesterkin.

John Sterling called Yankees games for over three decades before he retired this past year from the broadcast booth — a run that wasn’t surpassed by many, but Bob Uecker was one. 

This past year ended up as his worst season, with a jump in strikeouts and a drop in walks, among other dips in his typical production. 

Now that the Mets appear ready to move on from Pete Alonso, the impact on the roster will be significant.
