Thursday features four MLB games in the afternoon and eight at night.  Clayton Kershaw is an easy No. 1 choice among the eight starting pitchers available in early contests, but his $14,700 salary will likely have DraftKings daily fantasy players searching for a cheap second arm.

After checking in on the best of the best at first base, the B/R MLB 300 now moves up another 90 feet for a look at a decidedly more athletic position: second base.

It's admittedly been something of a lean year for the second-base brotherhood, but we still managed to come up with a list of 25 names after subjecting nominees to a scoring system that adds up to 100.

The St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates have punched their tickets to October, but the 2015 MLB playoff picture remains jumbled—especially in the American League.

Incomparable. You've probably heard that word thrown around in connection with Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw, the dynamic duo that's poised to pitch the Los Angeles Dodgers into October.

If David Ortiz wasn't playing under the lights at Fenway Park, he would be starring on a much different stage.

When the Players' Tribune handed the Boston Red Sox designated hitter a list of 10 questions for the website's "What the (Blank)?" series, he scribbled in one particularly interesting answer.

His dream job (if he weren't an athlete)? Wait for it...porn star.

Late Tuesday night, Hall of Fame catcher and MLB manager Yogi Berra died in West Caldwell, New Jersey, at the age of 90.

Zack Greinke is in the midst of his best season, but the Los Angeles Dodgers star finds himself on the mend with an injured calf.
