This seems dumb: In the proposed 16-team format, there would be five automatic qualifiers and 11 at-large teams, an idea that has been widely...
The game will survive. Maybe salaries will drop. Maybe it will lose some fans. Maybe a whole season will be missed. Ultimately, the game will go...
This is a really good comprehensive article on this topic:...
The deferred money has no impact on anything. It's a $44MM/yr contract in real value and the Dodgers are required to pay that into escrow each...
Sure but why? They got a free player with upside instead. And they'd need another OF so they'd have had to pay for one in that case.
Too many good players to play. What an awful problem to have.
From ESPN: The Philadelphia Phillies released outfielder Nick Castellanos on Thursday after the team was unable to make a deal to trade him....
Is it? They lost Framber who imploded and lost 8 of his 10 starts down the stretch, and they added a potential Japanese star and a young guy they...

To clarify, I didn't say it very well, but the universal rover was Paredes. If you trade Walker, Paredes would be in the lineup at 1B, so he can't...
So the concern with keeping Walker is we can't get our best bats all in the lineup. The solution would be to trade him for a backup catcher who...
There are other explanations though. For example, he joined a team that for the last decade has been near the bottom of the league every year in...
Marcel Ozuna just signed - top story on ESPN MLB. He's 35. 2021 and 2022 were awful and then rebounded to have two of his best seasons of his...
Oh absolutely - the teams couldn't find a good fit. It happens. I was just commenting on the posts here about how awful/unreasonable the Red Sox...
