The Latest Breaking News from Tampa Bay

The complete NFL schedule was released Thursday night and these are the best games to watch from a fantasy football perspective.

TAMPA, Fla. — Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will visit Raymond James Stadium for a Super Bowl 55 rematch with the Bucs and Tom Brady in Week 4 of the NFL season.

Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash might have been wise to take a page out of Joe Maddon’s playbook and walk Shohei Ohtani intentionally with the bases loaded in the seventh inning Monday night, just like the Angels manager did with Texas Rangers slugger Corey Seager on April 16.

TAMPA, Fla. — There are rebound games, and then there are statement games.

BRANDON, Fla. — The Lightning had one distinct advantage playing on home ice for the first time this postseason: the last line change, allowing them to create favorable matchups with Toronto.

TAMPA, Fla. — The Lightning cut a three-goal deficit to one in the third period before allowing two empty-net goals in a 5-2 loss to the Maple Leafs in Game 3 of their first-round playoff series at Amalie Arena.

Slider-curve hybrids have been around for decades. Corey Kluber won two Cy Youngs with one. Why is this catching on now?

TORONTO — One of the most remarkable themes of the Lightning’s back-to-back title runs was the resolve they showed rebounding from a loss. Over the past two postseasons, Tampa Bay has followed each of its 14 defeats with a win in the next game.

The Tampa Bay Lightning are back to attempt a third Stanley Cup win in a row. Can they do it, or will another team from Florida come to the fore?

TORONTO — Before you can lift the Stanley Cup, you have to get out of the first round, and an opening-round win can set the tone for a deep playoff run.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The theme of the Twins' three-game series at Tampa Bay was lopsided scoring. And the Twins were yet again on the winning side of that Sunday.
