That has not stopped multiple players from the lower levels of the organization from playing in the various winter leagues to improve their skills. Luis Campusano went 0-for-21 last year at the MLB level so his time […]

There are a lot of prospect hounds around and a lot of people like Harry Ford. This is the most updated scouting report, courtesy of Baseball Prospectus: If Ford was hoping he might play himself into a time-share at the catcher position by the end of 2025, he should’ve known better than to be drafted […]

The St. Louis Cardinals are officially committing to the rebuild after teasing with the transition idea at this time last year. With Sonny Gray gone, the Cardinals need to go fully into this new direction and truly look to take advantage of their trade pieces. By now, you know to me that means dealing Nolan […]

The 2026 Braves team ZIPs projections came out on Monday. Last year’s starters plus Mauricio Dubon are below. There’s not a ton of argue about here. These numbers look pretty realistic. I understand where he gets Dan Szymborski gets these numbers from. There are a few of these that don’t look right. I think the […]

Early in this offseason, the Detroit Tigers’ roster has largely taken shape already. Jack Flaherty exercised his player option for 2026 and Gleyber Torres accepted the qualifying offer and will also return at their starting second baseman. That’s $47 million, roughly a third of the projected 2026 payroll already allocated. The Tigers are signing right-hander […]

We cover the coverage like PCA covers center field. We catch everything but we throw a lot back. ‘Insider’ Bob Nightengale’s dispatches aren’t often found here. He’s on the same level as ‘Insider’ Jim Bowden as far as I’m concerned. Zac Gallen is still on the market. *means autoplay on, (directions to remove for Firefox and […]

Hello, friends. There are now 109 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day 2026.

I would have thought someone like Harry Ford would have been worth much more than what the Mariners got for him, but Jose Ferrer is nothing to sneeze at either. We’ll never know what the Phillies could have dealt, […]

For example, here’s one from yesterday: Washington Nationals traded LHP Jose Alexander Ferrer to Seattle Mariners for C Harrison Michael Ford and RHP Isaac James Lyon. Not bad!

Happy Sunday one and all. The Arizona Cardinals are hurting, as they head into this one against maybe the best team in the NFC… maybe even the NFL. The bad part is, the Rams are coming off a loss as well, so they are extra angry and extra focused while the Cardinals are dropping like […]
