This wasn’t the way the Braves hoped to open their 2022 postseason. But if you’re looking for panic inside the Braves’ clubhouse, you’re in the wrong place.“I feel like this team has always been good at responding well. We’ve done it throughout this year. We obviously did it last year,” said shortstop Dansby Swanson after Tuesday’s 7-6 loss to the Phillies in Game-1 of the Division Series at Truist Park. Exhibit 1A: The Braves lost to the Brewers in the opener of the 2021 NLDS, then went on to win the next three and the series. Sure, this is a different opponent with different challenges. But the confidence remains. “We play a five game series for a reason here, so flush it. Come back and try to win the game (Wednesday),” said first baseman Matt Olson in the clubhouse after the Game-1 loss.It was Olson’s 3-run home run to centerfield that nearly propelled the Braves to a incredible comeback on Tuesday. Down 7-1 and later 7-3, Olson’s blast got Atlanta to within 7-6 of Philadelphia.  » Read More

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Philadelphia Phillies fans are catching on to the team's unusual clubhouse anthem.We heard it over the weekend after the Phillies swept the Cardinals in St. Louis.As they soaked one another with champagne, players belted out "Dancing on My Own".To be specific, Calum Scott's version (Tiesto Remix) of the Robyn classic.Catcher Garrett Stubbs, apparently the Phillies' unofficial DJ, told MLB.com, "There's no deeper meaning or backstory to it, other than it's an absolute banger and we love singing it in the locker room."Stubbs said they've been playing the song after wins since the beginning of the season.Phillies fans wasted no time after seeing the locker room celebration and started commenting on Calum Scott's YouTube videos."This's our new song right now! #PHILLIESNATION""25 Phillies singing this in the locker room after beating the Cardinals brought me here.

NEW YORK — Baseball’s biggest spenders looked spent.The New York Mets enjoyed 175 days in first place, boosted by their billionaire new owner, confident Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer would lead them to glory, certain Buck Showalter would make all the right moves.All that blood, toil, tears and sweat ended not with bubbly and rings, but in a one-hit shutout defeat before a stunned crowd short of a sellout and Showalter prodding umpires to search the other team’s starter for secret sticky substances.“To be honest, it hurts. It really hurts,” Pete Alonso said after Sunday night’s 6-0 loss to San Diego ended the Mets’ postseason return just three games after it began.“It’s not just the losing. It’s kind of the disbanding of the group because every single guy in this clubhouse is really awesome. And it just sucks that it’s not going to be the same group next year because you have free agency, trade possibilities,” he said.A day before the loss in the wild-card round,  » Read More

This story first appeared in The Outsider, the premium outdoor newsletter by Jason Blevins.In it, he covers the industry from the inside out, plus the fun side of being outdoors in our beautiful state. ASPEN — When Jim Deters launched his “Rocky Mountain country club” three years ago, he had one big question: Would people pay up to $200 a month to join a first-of-its-kind social club that delivered discounts on hotel rooms and dining and access to top-notch gear, working space and fancy fitness facilities?  Today his Gravity Haus has 4,000 members, 300 employees and six properties. “This was almost dream-like execution,” says Deters, rambling through wood-paneled office space where he’s planning bars and lounges overlooking Aspen Mountain in a building that will include Gravity Haus’ signature coffee shop, restaurants, coworking space and fitness facility. “The pandemic accelerated a trend we were on by a decade. We were at the right place at the right time to catch this incredible wave.” Deters is ready to unveil his latest addition to the Gravity Haus empire he assembled in the rowdiest three years in the Colorado high country since the late 1800s silver boom.  » Read More

October 9th, 2022ATLANTA -- Though relievers don’t always get the credit they deserve, the Braves' bullpen has earned tremendous respect from those who saw the daily impact it made over the course of a 101-win season.“That group down there, in a way, is our team,” Braves shortstop Dansby Swanson said. “They are very professional and they are accountable for each other. They work hard, but they also have this ability to keep things light and fun. Then, when it comes game time, they are just all over it. To do what they have done all year is special. I’m hoping that trend continues.”The Braves will attempt to build upon a fifth straight division title when they face the Phillies in the National League Division Series beginning Tuesday at Truist Park. As Atlanta marched to a World Series title last year, it was fortified by a relief corps that became recognized as "The Night Shift."Well, the Night Shift has assumed a different look, but the pieces are there for this group to once again be highly successful throughout the postseason.  » Read More

(670 The Score) The future of first baseman Jose Abreu is one of the pressing matters the White Sox need to address this offseason as he enters free agency. Abreu has been a cornerstone of the franchise for nine seasons, but the White Sox also have a logjam of first basemen and designated hitters on their roster. And to open up first base for 24-year-old Andrew Vaughn, they’d need to let Abreu go. So what do we expect them to do? Bob Nightengale of USA Today believes they'll let Abreu go. “I don’t think there’s any way in the world that they bring back Jose Abreu,” Nightengale said on Inside the Clubhouse on Saturday morning. “Love the guy, he still had a strong season, but you’ve got to change things up in there. I think they need a loud voice in that clubhouse too, some guy to kind of lead and be the guy that they rally around. I think they’ll make a lot of moves this offseason.” Asked to elaborate on his thought on Abreu’s future,  » Read More
