Chris Landers’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

I'm the managing editor of Chesapeake Bay Magazine, a nearly 50 year old magazine covering everything to do with the bay, from Skipjacks to crab cakes.
Every newspaper I've worked for has gone out of business. I do not think these things are related.
Also, I am not the excellent baseball writer who has the same name as me, no matter what Muckrack tries to tell you, but I do have season tickets to the Orioles.

The 2026 MLB season has fully reached the stretch run, and with just six weeks or so to go until the playoffs, the AL standings almost literally could not be more wide-open. The Tampa Bay Rays have built a healthy lead atop the AL East and might not lose again between now and October, but both the Central and West have become free-for-alls that could go any number of directions.

And few teams seemed to have more reason for optimism entering 2026 than the Tennessee Titans, with a brand new coaching staff and a top-10 pick at receiver in Carnell Tate set to help unlock second-year passer Cam Ward. Unfortunately, those good vibes lasted ...
