The Rangers failed to score enough runs for the second straight year. After making a few unsuccessful changes around the core last winter, they should be up for a more radical overhaul of the lineup. Guaranteed Contracts Corey Seager, SS: $186MM through 2031 Jacob deGrom, RHP: $75MM through 2027 (deal includes club/vesting option for '28)…

The Orioles are looking for an impact hitter, reports Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com.

Get Your Fake Offers Ready: Tarik Skubal Might Be Available via Trade
Although I think Paul Skenes would probably be everyone’s first (and the likely correct) answer to the question “Who’s the best pitcher in baseball right now?” Tigers lefty Tarik Skubal is at least in the conversation. In fact, Skubal arguably out-pitched Skenes this year, though it’s not really worth a debate (they’re both the elite of the elite, which is high enough praise for either guy). And that’s what makes the latest bit of rumors so exciting. According to the latest speculation (w...
Today in White Sox History: October 20
1909 Bruce “Soupy” Campbell (no relation to the Chicago Blackhawks Stanley Cup-winning defenseman with the same name and nickname), a Chicago native (LaGrange H.S.) who played the first two of his 13 major league seasons on the South Side, was born 113 years ago today. Though he played just 16 career games (age 20-22) with the […]
Monday Musings: did we just pull the Scooby Doo villain mask off the 2025 Canes?
Happy Monday, everyone. Too bad it’s not the victory Monday that it should be today. Yes, there’s plenty to talk about after Miami looked more like the pre-2025 version that we know and don’t love in a 24-21 loss to Louisville on Friday night. So, let’s get to it… 1) August/September Canes were a look […]
Dodgers’ Justin Dean knows his role
LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers have played 10 games so far this postseason, and by using a mostly regular lineup have eight different players who have played every single game. All of them are starters, except for outfielder Justin Dean, who hasn’t yet batted during this postseason. “If there’s a chance to have him bat, […]

Playing Catch-Up with the Off-Season
With the off-season officially underway, the Arizona Diamondbacks front office is facing a financial and roster construction tightrope act. Eleven players are eligible for salary arbitration in 2026, totaling a projected $26.6 million according to MLB Trade Rumors’ estimates. Coupled with a looming 40-man roster crunch, needed to reinstate players from the 60-day Injured List, […]
The Packers didn’t want Josh Jacobs to play vs. the Cardinals
On Saturday night, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs, who was dealing with an illness and a calf strain, was a “true game-time decision” against the Arizona Cardinals. This was backed by the Packers’ roster moves on Saturday, where they called up running back Pierre Strong Jr. to the […]
Max Anderson can’t stop homering in Arizona Fall League
Tuesday, Oct. 14 — Max Anderson homers On Monday, Max Anderson hit his first home run of the fall. He turned on a 95-mph fastball high and in for a 395-foot bomb — 26-degree launch angle and 104.5 mph off the bat! He also walked twice and scored a pair of runs while striking out […]
Shelby Miller Undergoes Elbow Surgery
Right-hander Shelby Miller underwent elbow surgery last week, according to the club’s injury tracker at MLB.com. He had his ulnar collateral ligament and flexor tendon repaired in the operation and is likely to miss the 2026 season. The news doesn’t come as a surprise. Arm issues were a notable part of his 2025 season. With…
Does Keibert Ruiz have a future with the Washington Nationals?
Of all their young players over the last half decade or so, the Washington Nationals have only extended one of them. That would be catcher Keibert Ruiz, who the Nationals gave an 8-year $50 million deal to before the 2023 season. However, just three years in, that deal looks like an anchor rather than an […]
What Are the Cubs Going to Do this Winter? Who’s Available in Free Agency?
Although I do believe that the Cubs should have plenty of reasons (and more than enough payroll space) to be aggressive in free agency this offseason, their intentions on that front aren’t particularly clear. That’s due in part to Jed Hoyer’s history of free agent passivity, as well as the new CBA negotiations and expected lockout. But there’s also the fact that the 2026 roster is already pretty full-up with potential starters: C – Carson Kelly/Miguel Amaya 1B – Michael Busch 2B – Ni...
Packers’ Nate Hobbs conceded the 2nd most yards in the NFL in Week 7
To say the least, the Green Bay Packers’ plan of signing Nate Hobbs, paying him like a slot defender and hoping that he could develop into outside cornerback is not exactly working out so far. Just in case you thought you were hallucinating yesterday’s performance against the Arizona Cardinals, I decided to look at the […]
The Arizona Cardinals coaches failed the team on Sunday
Everyone knew who the Arizona Cardinals needed to stop on Sunday. The best defensive player in the NFL, Micah Parson was lined up across from the Arizona Cardinals and while his stats were not eye-popping coming into the day, 2.5 sacks, one tackle for loss, and eight quarterback hits. In a single game, he basically […]
Trent Edges Closer to Return as Real Madrid Begin Preparations for Juventus
Real Madrid were back on the training pitch at Valdebebas on Monday morning, just a day after grinding out a 1–0 win away to Getafe.

Milwaukee Brewers Will Reportedly Field Trade Offers for Freddy Peralta
Freddy Peralta has been an outstanding pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers for the past eight seasons, giving the Chicago Cubs fits along the way. He has become something of an anchor for the Brewers rotation, pitching like an ace in 2025, and is just 29 years old. So it’s high time for the Brewers to trade him. From The Athletic : “In this case, as the winter unfolds, the Brewers are expected to at least field offers for starting pitcher Freddy Peralta, according to people fami...
Monday Morning Minnesota: The “Money Buys World Series Appearances” Edition
The Dodgers have punched their ticket to the World Series and await the winner of Game 7 between the Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners tonight. Despite having the best record in the majors this season, the Milwaukee Brewers could not overcome the pitching prowess of the Dodgers, with their four starters of Blake Snell, […]
Do not be careful with your hope
The fires are mild this summer. I know because we’ve journeyed east on schedule. It will be five years before my window for this time shrinks from a Carlos Vargas target to George Kirby’s. Five years til we go from seasons of adventure to a weekend in August, sandwiched between 80 of my baseball games […]
Cubs in the AFL: Mesa Solar Sox Week 2 update
