Last offseason, there were rumors abound on what would happen with Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams, and it’s looking like this offseason will bring more of the same until Stafford officially opts in (or doesn’t) with the Rams. During that 2025 offseason, teams like the New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders reportedly […]

The Michael Siani offseason rollercoaster looped around to make a second stop in Los Angeles, as the center fielder was claimed by the Dodgers off waivers from the New York Yankees on Tuesday. This comes 11 days after the Yankees claimed him off waivers from the Dodgers. It’s been a busy offseason for the defense-first […]

The 2023 season saw a 19 year old Carlos Jorge show pop, patience, and speed in the otherwise extremely pitching-friendly environment of the Florida State League, slashing .295/.400/.483 with 9 HR and 31 SB in just 86 games with Daytona. Since then, he’s had his share of struggles. He followed up finishing the 2023 season […]

The Diamondbacks don’t have as long a history as many clubs. But it feels like they have crammed quite a lot in – good and bad – as we prepare to enter their 29th season. There was the World Series in 2001, of course. But just three years later, they had the worst National League […]

This might be a sign of the apocalypse. For once, I’m really hoping that ESPN is right about something. Today, they have made the bold prediction that JJ Wetherholt will be the National League Rookie of the Year-sort of. The 2026 season predictions for MLB’s top prospects on ESPN is a fun read for St. […]

The Diamondbacks filled another spot on the roster, with the news this afternoon that the team will be signing first baseman Carlos Santana. According to John Gambadoro, the deal is a one-year one, worth approximately $2 million. Santana certainly brings experience, turning 40 in April. He was originally signed by the Dodgers in 2004 – […]

I believe Houston needs to move on from their CF. Astros fans, here I am again, the voice of reason. A few weeks ago, I floated the idea that it might be time to trade Jeremy Peña. Now I’m back with another uncomfortable but necessary conversation: the Houston Astros should seriously consider trading Jake Meyers […]

The Nationals are going to have a number of position battles this spring. Not many spots on the pitching staff are secure, and it is anyone’s guess as to who the first baseman will be. However, the camp battle that intrigues me the most comes at the catching position. Keibert Ruiz has been the full […]

The deal now gives the Astros, or any new team, two years of cost certainty. Earlier today, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reported that the Houston Astros have come to a contract agreement with 3B Isaac Paredes on a 2-year, $22.7M deal. This deal having a second season with a club option (unless he finished Top […]

It’s only a motion away. Could there be an Astros and Framber Valdez reunion? Maybe the odds are better than we previously thought? Monday night on AREA 45 on Sportsradio 610, I posed the idea of the Astros getting back in on Framber Valdez with a short term, high AAV type deal with opt outs […]

When the Cubs signed Jon Berti as a backup infielder before the 2025 season, it seemed like a reasonable thing to do. Berti had led the National League in stolen bases in 2022 with 41, and the following year posted a .748 OPS in 133 games with the Marlins, with 16 steals and 2.2 bWAR. […]

Spring Training is around the corner, which means MORE CUBS PROSPECT STUFF. It’s not just about the big league team, you know …. Although the Cubs placed just two prospects on ESPN’s top-100 list (Moises Ballesteros and Jaxon Wiggins, the same as most top-100s in this cycle), Kiley McDaniel included two others in the “next 100” list. Jefferson Rojas, it turns out, just barely missed the top-100 (107), while the other Cubs prospect in that next group is a mild surprise: 3B/2B switch-hitt...

The Arizona Cardinals introduced their newest new head coach, Mike LaFleur at an introductory press conference.

The Los Angeles Rams will have a new offensive coordinator in 2026 as Mike LaFleur was named the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. There are several directions that the Rams could go on the offensive side of the ball. With that said, it is assumed at this point that passing game coordinator Nate Scheelhaase […]

Christian Zazueta is coming off a breakout season in 2025, posting a 2.41 ERA in 17 starts, 16 of them for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga, with 81 strikeouts and 16 walks in 67 1/3 innings, his 23.8-percent strikeout-minus-walk rate tops among all Dodgers minor league pitchers with at least 50 innings last year. The right-hander was […]

When news broke that the New York Rangers wouldn’t be signing Artemi Panarin to a contract extension, instead looking to find him a new home, it was reasonable to dismiss the idea of the Edmonton Oilers trading for him. An $11.6 million cap hit was the obvious roadblock for the Oilers, but so too was…

It’s January 2011 and the Yankees have narrowly missed out on the opportunity to defend their World Series crown, having been bounced out of the ALCS by the Rangers in six games.
