The latest New York Yankees news, including a Robinson Canó-related update that might make you feel old.
Despite a chaotic career path, right‑hander Xzavion Curry surprised the New York Mets in 2026. Signed to a minor‑league deal in May after flailing with the Marlins, Rockies and a Mexican League team, Curry posted a 4.74 ERA in 49.1 Triple‑A innings before his July call‑up. In the majors he logged nine appearances (one start) with a 5.48 ERA over 21.1 innings, but excluding a disastrous three‑inning, six‑run outing against Baltimore, his MLB ERA drops to 3.44. He led Syracuse’s rotation with a 3.36 ERA in 72.1 innings and struck out 41. At 28, Curry’s odd‑ball season may earn him another year in affiliated baseball.

There are moments in sports that make fans feel old. One of those moments happened this weekend. The son of Hall of Famer Jerome Bettis, Jerome Bettis Jr., caught a touchdown pass for Notre Dame.

The Chicago White Sox will have plenty of crucial decisions to make throughout the offseason. On Monday, that included adding a new infielder to the mix. The White Sox claimed infielder Graham Pauley off of waivers from the Miami Marlins, the team announced. In turn, left-handed pitcher Ky Bush and outfielder Junior Perez have been [...] The post Chicago White Sox bolster infield with ex-Marlins standout appeared first on ChiCitySports .
The Marlins announced that left-hander Patrick Monteverde has been sent outright to Triple-A Jacksonville. More to come.
The Mets officially open free agency by adding infielder Christian Cairo (one‑year split deal) and claiming right‑handers Jack Anderson and Pierson Ohl off waivers, then quickly DFAing Cairo and new signee Kyren Paris. Cairo, a 25‑year‑old former Phillies Triple‑A player, posts a .233/.361/.314 line in Triple‑A. Anderson, 27, logged 12.1 MLB innings in 2026, while Ohl, also 27, missed 2026 after Tommy John surgery. Outgoing pieces include RHP Philip Abner and LHP Cameron Weston (claimed by Orioles and Marlins), first‑baseman Eric Wagaman (free agency) and Cristian Pache (sent to Triple‑A). Reinstated from the 60‑day IL are Tylor Megill, Reed Garrett and Jorge Polanco.
The Orioles overhaul their 40-man roster as free agency opens, clearing five fringe players—including former #2 overall pick Heston Kjerstad and 2021 slugger Ryan Mountcastle—from the roster and adding four claimants: RHP Josh White (Marlins), LHP Philip Abner (Mets), C Zach Morgan (Giants) and RHP Chase Hampton (Cardinals). All four injured-list pitchers—Kyle Bradish, Ryan Helsley, Tyler O’Neill and Jordan Westburg—return to the roster. Baltimore also extends a qualifying offer to free-agent right-hander Trevor Rogers, one of eight that will likely be declined, positioning the team for a possible compensation pick. These moves have minimal impact on the projected Opening Day 2027 lineup but signal continued roster churn.
So much for wisdom of the crowds. The Sox Machine Offseason Plan Project is up to 67 entrants, and not a single one mentioned Graham Pauley, the infielder the White Sox claimed off waivers from the Miami Marlins today. This is the first real transaction of the White Sox’s offseason, because while the Sox had… The post White Sox make first move of offseason by claiming Graham Pauley appeared first on Sox Machine .
The White Sox claim infielder Graham Pauley off waivers from the Marlins, while outrighting left‑hander Ky Bush and outfielder Junior Pérez to Triple‑A Charlotte. Pauley, 26, offers strong defensive versatility at third base and a solid Triple‑A offensive line (.248/.336/.470, 114 wRC+), though he struggled at the big‑league level with a .209/.272/.364 slash in 370 plate appearances. The move coincides with the post‑season roster crunch as clubs prepare for the Rule 5 deadline on November 17. Bush, recovering from Tommy‑John surgery, and Pérez, a power‑speed prospect battling high strikeout rates, both face uphill battles to return to the majors.
The Miami Marlins claim right‑hander Cameron Weston off waivers from division rival New York Mets, according to The Athletic. Weston, drafted by the Orioles in 2022, was a top prospect (BA #13, FanGraphs #14) but saw his performance slip, posting a 7.89 ERA in Triple‑A Norfolk last season and making only one MLB appearance—a scoreless inning on May 28 versus Toronto. After a brief, strong stint with the Mets' Triple‑A Syracuse squad (1 run in 6⅓ innings, 10 K, 1 BB), the Marlins add him to the 40‑man roster, retaining two minor‑league options for flexibility.
Victor Vodnik’s three‑year stint with the Colorado Rockies was marked by a blazing fastball but glaring inconsistency. Acquired in a 2023 deadline trade for Pierce Johnston, the former Braves #10 prospect posted a career‑low 0.1 rWAR in 2026, tallying a 5.25 ERA over 36 innings at Coors Field despite striking out 6.5 batters per nine and walking 4.75. His slider gained whiff but his control faltered, leading to a mid‑season trade to the Miami Marlins, where he posted a modest 4.37 ERA in 22.2 innings. The article reviews his stats, pitch mix, and why Colorado moved on.
According to multiple reports, the Miami Marlins signed Robinson Canó Jr. on Monday to a deal worth $1 million.
The Atlanta Braves sign 28‑year‑old infielder Vidal Bruján to a minor‑league contract, assigning him to Triple‑A Gwinnett as depth. Bruján, who has appeared in 271 MLB games for six clubs since his 2021 debut, posted a career .197/.266/.272 slash line and a modest 53 wRC+. His most recent big‑league stint was a 74 wRC+ stretch with the Marlins in 2024. After brief stops with the Twins, Mets and a 2025 Braves waiver claim, he spent most of last season in Triple‑A, hitting 113 wRC+ and stealing 16 bases. Atlanta plans to invite him to spring training as a non‑roster utility option, with potential bench duty at second base, shortstop, third, or right field.
A fan rebuts former Marlins exec David P. Samson’s claim that MLB no longer needs radio, arguing that radio remains a free, accessible way to follow the Braves—especially in the car during the postseason via the 680 The Fan app. He highlights the nostalgic bond between baseball and radio, cites John Smoltz’s broadcasts, and warns that dismissing radio ignores older fans who still tune in weekly.
With the New York Yankees preparing for the 2027 season after another disappointing postseason exit, losing to the Tampa Bay Rays in the ALDS, one aspect of the team from this past year that needs to be figured out is Jazz Chisholm Jr., who’s a free agent. As rumors will surround the Yankees this offseason, […] The post Insider shares revelation involving Yankees’ Jazz Chisholm Jr., Derek Jeter with Marlins appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Mets Morning News spotlights the Brewers' historic World Series win, with Milwaukee holding a victory parade on Oct. 30, 2026. The piece hints at Mets offseason moves, naming free-agent pitcher Teruaki Sato and noting the Braves' signing of 17‑year‑old Cuban catcher Anthony Calderon. It also recaps league-wide roster moves: the Marlins pick up Sandy Alcántara’s 2027 option, the Nationals lose hitting coach CJ Gillman to Seattle, and the Astros hire former Cardinals assistant GM Randy Flores. Finally, it recalls Tom Seaver’s second Cy Young Award on this date in 1973.
The blog outlines one likely trade candidate from each NL East club ahead of the 2027 season. Ronald Acuña Jr. (Braves) is injury‑prone, vocal about leaving and could fetch top prospects for teams like the Cubs, Mets or Padres. Bryce Harper (Phillies) carries a $125.5 million contract through 2032 and may waive his no‑trade clause, but his declining defense makes a move doubtful; possible destinations include the Brewers, Diamondbacks or Mets. Sandy Alcantara (Marlins) rebounded to a 3.87 ERA in 2026 after Tommy John surgery, with his $21 million 2027 option exercised, making him a pricey but attractive arm for the Blue Jays, Cubs or Padres. Finally, shortstop C.J. Abrams (Nationals) is highlighted as a potential trade piece, though details are cut off. The piece weighs each player’s performance, contract status and clubhouse factors to gauge trade likelihood.
The Orioles surprise the offseason market by signing outfielder Rece Hinds to a 2027 major‑league contract, despite a .179 slash line in 12 games and a costly error in the season finale. Hinds, a former 49th‑overall pick who bounced from the Reds to the Marlins before landing in Baltimore, is out of options and must clear waivers to be sent down. The move underscores the O’s outfield depth concerns, with Luis Robert Jr. likely bought out and prospects like Dylan Beavers, Colton Cowser, Tyler O’Neill, and Leody Taveras still under contract. Manager Craig Albernaz highlighted a recent misplay blamed on Hinds not wearing sunglasses. The signing hints at scouting director Mike Elias betting on Hinds’ speed and past potential.
The Atlanta Braves have signed 17‑year‑old Cuban catching prospect Anthony Calderón, adding a 6‑ft‑4 power‑handed catcher to this year’s international class. Calderón receives a $350,000 bonus, tying him for the fifth‑most expensive signing in the Braves’ current pool and matching breakout prospect Jorwin Pulido’s deal. The Braves edged out the Marlins, Rangers and Royals, and retain $533,700 of their 2026 international bonus pool. Calderón, trained at Alex Sánchez’s Academy, showcases strong defense, power and a recent home‑run against the Dominican Republic U‑18 squad, but won’t impact the big‑league club for several years.
Former NL Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara is staying with the Miami Marlins, at least for now, after having his option for next season picked up.
The Orioles officially decline the mutual option on right‑hander Zach Eflin’s 2027 contract, ending a potential $25 million deal. Eflin, who underwent Tommy John surgery in April and was pulled after 3 2/3 innings in his first 2026 start, posted a 5‑2 record with a 2.60 ERA in nine starts after being acquired from Tampa Bay in July 2024. He struggled in 2025 with back surgery and a 5.93 ERA. Meanwhile, Baltimore signs outfielder Rece Hinds to a 2027 major‑league contract after purchasing him from the Marlins; he hit .179 in 12 games.
The Baltimore Orioles have re‑signed outfielder Rece Hinds to a one‑year Major League deal that pays $4,700 above the upcoming league minimum. Acquired from the Marlins at the August trade deadline, Hinds is now secured on the 40‑man roster, a move often used by GM Mike Elias to protect fringe players. The modest salary reduces his waiver appeal, increasing the odds he’ll clear waivers and be outrighted if designated. Hinds, a 26‑year‑old former 2019 Reds second‑round pick, has a .171/.229/.388 line in 166 MLB PA with a 41.6% strikeout rate, but hits .258 with 53 Triple‑A homers and shows versatility across the outfield and on the bases.
The Miami Marlins officially exercised the $21 million club option on right‑hander Sandy Alcantara, turning a $19 million net deal into a six‑year, $75 million commitment through 2027. Alcantara, the 2021 NL Cy Young winner, logged a league‑leading 214 innings with a 3.87 ERA, low walk rate and solid ground‑ball numbers after returning from Tommy John surgery. Miami plans to start him on Opening Day and shows no intent to trade him, despite past speculation. The move sets up a potential extension worth $25‑28 million per year for four to five years, the biggest pitcher contract in franchise history.
