Cardinals Can End 39-Year Drought, and You Can Help
Cardinals Can End 39-Year Drought, and You Can Help originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Fan voting for this year's MLB All-Star Game is underway. Phase 1 of voting began yesterday and will run through noon ET on Thursday, June 26. Advertisement After Ryan Helsley was the lone Cardinals' all star in 2024, this year's team has a few players with strong cases for the All-Star Game, which will take place in Atlanta on Tuesday, July 15. Among the Cardinals' possible All-Star candidates are shortstop Masyn Winn and designated hitter Iván Herrera, but it's second baseman Brendan Donovan who appears most likely to represent the team in Atlanta. Donovan is off to an incredible start in 2025, slashing .321/.384/.462 through 57 games. He leads all qualified NL primary second basemen in batting average, on-base percentage, slugging perecentage, wRC+ and WAR, among other statistics. Advertisement If selected as the NL's starting second baseman for the All-Star Game, Donovan would be the first Cardinal to do so since Tom Herr in 1985, ending a 39-year drought. Donovan finished third in rookie of the year voting in 2022 and was named a Gold Glover that same year, but is yet to play in an All-Star Game. Cardinals second baseman Brendan DonovanTim Heitman-Imagn Images In order to be named this year's starter at second base, Donovan will first need to finish inside the top two at his position in Phase 1 of fan voting. During Phase 1 of voting, fans can cast five ballots every 24 hours on the MLB website. The results of Phase 1 will be announced on Thursday, June 26. The top two vote-getters at each position (and top six outfliders) will then move on to Phase 2 of fan voting to determine who starts in the All-Star Game. Phase 2 runs from noon ET on Monday to noon ET on Wednesday, July 2, and fans are only allowed to vote once every 24 hours. Advertisement Finally, the starters at each position will be announced at 7 p.m. ET on July 2, with the pitchers and reserves being announced at 5 p.m. ET on Sunday, July 6.

Duke baseball vs. Murray State: Prediction, odds for Game 3 of Durham Super Regional
Duke baseball vs. Murray State: Prediction, odds for Game 3 of Durham Super Regional The Duke Blue Devils and Murray State Racers are playing in a winner-take-all Game 3 of the Durham Super Regional on Monday. The winner of the game will advance to the College World Series in Omaha, and the loser's season will be over. Duke won the first game of the series, but Murray State evened it up on Sunday, blowing out the Blue Devils 19-9 at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, North Carolina. Duke battled back and made it a 10-8 game in the sixth inning, but the Racers scored nine runs in the seventh inning to take control of the game. The Blue Devils are looking for their first-ever series win in the Super Regional round, losing their previous three in the decisive third game. Murray State is playing in the first Super Regional in program history and has never been to the CWS. Here is a look at the updated odds from FanDuel for Game 3 of Duke-Murray State and a prediction for the game. The Odds Murray State Racers: +190 Duke Blue Devils: -250 Despite losing by 10 runs in Game Two of the series, Duke is heavily favored in the game. The Blue Devils have been great at home all season, going 30-10. Murray State's Statistical Leaders Batting Average: Dustin Mercer (.360) Slugging: Jonathan Hogart (.695) Home Runs: Jonathan Hogart (20) RBI: Dan Tauken (75) Stolen Bases: Carson Garner (14) Duke's Statistical Leaders Batting Average: Ben Miller (.321) Ben Miller (.321) Slugging: Ben Miller (.638) Ben Miller (.638) Home Runs: Ben Miller (21) Ben Miller (21) RBI: Ben Miller (63) Ben Miller (63) Stolen Bases: Tyler Albright (15) Advice and Prediction Best Bet: Duke -250 The Blue Devils are the heavy favorites for the game, and they should be. Yes, they got blown out in Game Two on Sunday, but they have been excellent at home all season and should be playing in front of another excellent crowd. They haven't lost back-to-back home games this season, and it won't happen on Monday as Duke does enough to win the game and punch their ticket to the College World Series for the first time since 1961. How to watch, listen to Monday's game Date: Monday, June 9 Time: 7 p.m. ET TV: ESPN Streaming: ESPN+ The game between Duke and Murray State will start at 7 p.m. ET on Monday at Jack Coombs Field in Durham, North Carolina.

Michigan State football offers 3-star North Carolina RB Jamal Rule Michigan State football has identified another running back prospect they'd like to add to their 2026 class. Jamal Rule of Charlotte announced on Monday that he's received an offer from the Spartans. Rule made the Michigan State offer known by posting on his social media X account. Rule is a three-star running back prospect in the 2026 class, according to 247Sports. He holds a recruiting rating of 87.26 and is ranked as the No. 46 running back in 247Sports' composite rankings for the 2026 class. Michigan State is one of nearly 15 schools to offer Rule, according to 247Sports. He also holds offers from Boston College, Nebraska, Syracuse, NC State, Virginia Tech, Arkansas, Pitt, Wisconsin, Appalachian State, James Madison, Liberty, Miami (OH) and Elon. The offer for Rule from the Spartans comes on the same day that four-star running back Damon Ferguson committed to Pitt over Michigan State. The Spartans have yet to land a running back commitment in the 2026 class and it appears Rule may be their next big target they are focusing on moving forward.
