Rejoice! It’s February!

We have not heard much about the Arizona Cardinals staff under Mike LaFleur, and that makes sense when you consider they have not even had an introductory press conference for their new head coach. However, we know that they will not have veteran defensive coordinator Gus Bradley. So, who will fill the coordinator roles of […]

The day after Justin Hollander and Jerry Dipoto both said at Fan Fest that the Mariners were still looking to make one impact move, they backed that up today with the most significant trade of the Mariners off-season, a three-team trade with the Rays and Cardinals that will bring long-anticipated trade target Brendan Donovan to […]

Over the weekend, the infield market started churning , with free agents Luis Arraez (San Francisco) and Eugenio Suarez (Cincinnati) signing fresh deals with new teams. And that movement continued on Monday with long-rumored Cardinals trade chip Brendan Donovan getting dealt to Seattle in a three-team deal (pending physical).
This transaction has some already-realized, near-term impact on the Cubs, seeing as the Cardinals’ sell-off is now even more substantial (they REALLY went for it, de...

Happy January Transfer Window Deadline Day everybody! Not a whole lot happened, however. Actually, other than Liverpool signing Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet, for £60m (£55m up front + £5m in potential add-ons), pretty much nothing happened. It was a very quiet deadline day, to cap off a pretty quiet winter window. And Jeremy Jacquet isn’t […]

The Chicago Cubs will play a kinda-sorta-almost baseball game this month. Several of them, actually! The first is February 20 at Sloan Park, as the Cubs kick off the Cactus League slate against the White Sox.
The official first workout date for the club is still nine days away, but you know these guys are training just about year-round, and there’s no better place to do it than at the Cubs’ facilities in Mesa, Arizona. So you see lots of guys showing up pretty much from the flip of the ca...

Pitchers and catchers may not have reported yet, but I figured I need to get an early jump on our usual review of the non-roster invitees to spring training.

It has been expected (by me, at least) ever since Main Street/FanDuel Sports Network (the successor to Diamond/Bally) missed a broadcast rights payment to the Cardinals back in December, and now it’s happening: a whole bunch more clubs are returning their local broadcast rights to Major League Baseball, as had happened previously over the last year+ with the Padres, Diamondbacks, Twins, Rockies, Nationals, and Guardians.
Up to eight more teams, formerly having their rights at Diamond/Ball...

Shortly after the NLDS came to an end in October, I made sure to throw some flowers in the general direction of Nico Hoerner, who had just wrapped up a career year with the Cubs : “Depending on whether you prefer FanGraphs (4.8 fWAR) or Baseball Reference (6.1 bWAR), Nico Hoerner was either the best or second-best player on the 92-win Chicago Cubs by the crude measure of individual player WAR. But given his performance in the second half of the season (122 wRC+, 2.4 WAR) and in the playoffs (1...
